************************************
Bishop’s golden ear was one of the most powerful in the industry and a leading reason WDAS Radio became the powerhouse that it did. His rich and powerful speaking voice exactly matched the power of his radio vision and talent for programming excellence.
Bishop came to WDAS from KATZ-AM in St Louis, Missouri where he was their number one-rated DJ. His legendary work sculpting the sound of WDAS is equaled by his top-rated evening-drive program “The Jimmy Bishop Go Show.”
Bishop’s talent was discovered by and he received his radio training from his former wife, WDAS Radio legend, Louise Williams Bishop. The Reverend Bishop is also a member of the Pennsylvania State House of Representatives and she said,
It’s important to remember how many acts Bishop gave their first hit records. Over and over he was the first to break records by the Jackson 5, The Temptations, The Supremes, The Marvelettes, Stevie Wonder, so many of the biggest acts in the country. And he had such a one of a kind voice, the richness and timbre of it will never be imitated and it will never be duplicated.
Jimmy Bishop was also a record producer, guiding the hits of the Soul Survivors, Honey and the Bees, the Ambassadors and his work with Lou Rawls and Philadelphia International Records caught the attention of CBS Records who made him a Vice President at their lead publishing house, April/Blackwood Music.
Bishop also won numerous broadcast and civic awards, among them the national Baptist Ministers Conference Award for Outstanding Community Service in 1968 and the Community Service Award from the Veterans of Foreign Wars and numerous awards from the City of Philadelphia for his work with young people.
