Edward Thomas "Eddie" Rabbitt (November 27, 1941 – May 7, 1998) was an American singer-songwriter and musician. His career began as a songwriter in the late 1960s, springboarding to a recording career after composing hits such as "Kentucky Rain" for Elvis Presley in 1970 and "Pure Love" for Ronnie Milsap in 1974. Later in the 1970s, Rabbitt helped to develop the crossover-influenced sound of country music prevalent in the 1980s with such hits as "Suspicions" and "Every Which Way but Loose." His duets "Friends and Lovers" and "You and I", with Juice Newton and Crystal Gayle respectively, later appeared on the soap operas Days of Our Lives and All My Children.

Edward R. Salmon is an entertainment industry executive and radio broadcaster from the United States, known as "Country radio's most influential programmer".

In 1981, Salamon formed The United Stations Radio Network with Dick Clark and other Mutual executives. Salamon was responsible for the creation of weekly programs including “The Weekly Country Music Countdown”, “Dick Clark’s Rock Roll and Remember”, both of which are still on the air twenty five years later.

In addition to conducting the interviews used in those programs, Salamon conducted the interviews, wrote and produced specials on the Beatles, Rolling Stones and others. In 1985, United Stations acquired the RKO Radio Network, giving United Stations a 24/7 News operation.

In 1989, the United Stations merged with The Transtar Radio Network to form Unistar., where Salamon hosted his own weekly series “The Stories Behind The Song” and live network interview specials with Garth Brooks and Alabama.

In 1993, Unistar merged with America’s largest radio network, Westwood One and Salamon became President/Programming of The Westwood One Radio Network.
