R.I.P.: KCOH Disc Jockey Stevie Goodtime T

Stevie Goodtime T
Longstanding KCOH 1230 AM Houston radio personality Steven Reginald Talton, known on-air as Stevie Goodtime T, passed of cancer complications this past Sunday. While Talton had kept his long battle with prostate cancer quiet, details became known after his passing, according to houstonpress.com.

Talton was most widely known for his nightly program "The Passion Zone," which was filled with the best torch songs in soul music as well as Talton's pointed and often funny observations on couples and relationships. 

Filled with the likes of Isaac Hayes and Barry White as well as with dial-in requests and bits of listener participation, the program often felt like a late-night party.

Born in the tiny north-central Texas community of Maypearl on December 29, 1956, Talton was a graduate of Dallas Baptist University. He was in broadcasting essentially his entire adult life, and spent the last 18 years with Houston's historically black-owned -- albeit recently sold -- KCOH.
