Big Al Kaprielian: "A True American Spaz"

I once met big Al Kaprielian at Cape Cod one summer, years back with my soon to be wife. He was a jovial and charismatic chap with a lust for the sky. As I lay on a beach towel next to my girl I hear a familiar voice coming from the concrete wall behind us. I turned to Nicole, "That's fucking Al Kaprielian!" I said. He was with his elderly Mother talking about the clouds. I proclaimed my admiration to him and requested a head-shot + signature. Sure as shit it arrived a few days later in the mail. He was just bumped from WNDS and affiliates and is looking for a job. You can still catch him on 980 AM WCAP Lowell, MA radio. Good man, great broadcaster. Godspeed big Al,.....godspeed......





A 25th anniversary broadcast on WNDS. A metric ton of recycled material but good none the less.




Thanks for the weather related roller coaster of fine and accurate reporting!

(this head shot was sent to me in 2003)
