He grew up in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame City of Cleveland Ohio listening to WIXY 1260 and later The Buzzard-WMMS. After completing four years at Ohio University, working at the All Campus Radio Network (as Poppa Wolf) and later WXTQ he ventured into commercial at WIBZ in Pakersburg, WVA. After a few years, he moved back to Cleveland and worked at News Talk WERE, Cleveland where he produced the Morton Downey Jr Show. Paul made Mort good enough to land a job at WMAQ (and you made have seen the Morton Downey Jr Show On TV). Paul wanted to program radio stations and so he set out on a journey that would take him to thriving metropolises such as East Liverpool, OH, Sandusky, OH and his first PD gig in Beckley, West Virginia.

Tired of the weather of the Midwest he was promised a job in Orlando, FL. His first break in a major market and a warmer climate. Unfortunately, that job never materialized. From Orlando he moved to Ft Myers for a few years even Daytona beach and back to Orlando where he worked at WHTQ. And then one night while dialing around the FM dial, he heard a friend of his whom he worked with while at WGCL, Bumper Morgan announce "We're just a small band of renegades terrorizing Tampa Bay, Power 93-The Power Pig. " He called Bumper who told him about the station and he said to call Marc Chase. And the rest as they say is history. "Working at the Power Pig is one of the most memorable rides I've ever had in radio."

Next an opportunity to move to California presented itself and Paul was on his way to see "Swimming Pools, Movie Stars". He was offered a position as Editor of Album Networks' Yellow Pages Of Rock. The Yellow Pages Of Rock was a printed predecessor of what is now the All Access Industry Directory. The Directory Guru is not only responsible for updating the Directory but also maintains the Arbitron section. Paul's spare time is spent riding his Harley Davidson not only through the canyons and valleys from Burbank to Malibu but wherever his motorcycle takes him.

Paul Colbert

Account Executive

After recovering from middle school conflict with Darryl Strawberry ("He stole my handball."), Paul Colbert pulled himself out of the adversity to enjoy a rewarding career. First, he turned an Internship at KMGG (Magic 106)/L.A. into an on air stint with the late Robert W. Morgan's morning show. Then, after helping establish KPWR (Power 106)/L.A. from day 1, Paul moved on to a stint working with Casey Kasem on "American Top 40" ("I was in charge of numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 & 42"). From there, Paul moved on to Radio & Records, working just about every job in the building from Editorial to Sales.

While doing time at R&R, Paul gained semi-local notoriety by being the guy standing behind the TV reporter saying O.J. had been arrested ("I got on 2 TV channels.") Concurrently, Paul established himself as an accomplished Voiceover performer in commercials, movie trailers, TV shows, and most notably as an Eddie Murphy soundalike ("Eddie matched my 'Shrek' guide vocals almost to the syllable"). Paul joined All Access in 2004, handling the Voiceover/Imaging dept. as well as Record Industry and Radio Sales.
