GCN’s dearly-loved Joe Mazza of the famous late night talk radio program, “The Joe Mazza Show” passed away suddenly on Tuesday, April 27th. As a nostalgia-themed talk show host, Joe enjoyed reminiscing about the good ol’ days with many guest stars over the years.

Joe was born in Waltham, Massachusetts, September 8, 1944.

From Remembering Joe Mazza:

He was employed for many years as an independent sales representative for home improvement through A&M of Revere. On weekends, for over twenty years, he was a syndicated late night radio talk show host whose programs were broadcasted, and well-known to night-owls, throughout the country. His studio was most often in the comfort of his home, but he also widely travelled to do shows from the bright lights of Las Vegas to the Minnesota outback. Joe was well known in Hingham for his friendly, outgoing manner and his sharing coffee with the locals. During the 50s and 60s, he organized and played guitar for The Caravans, a popular New England band who often played at the Beach Casino in Hampton, NH.

We encourage our listeners who loved their Sunday late nights with Joe to leave comments here.

GCN News interviewed Joe Mazza’s brother Jim on Friday. Look for “The Life And Times Of Joe Mazza” to appear on GCN Live.com on Sunday, and be sure to listen live to the special “best-of” show that will air Sunday night.
