Keith has been played on NTS shows including My Ever Changing Moods w/ DJ Lance Rock, with 98.6 first played on 7 January 2017.

Keith (born James Barry Keefer) was a U.S. vocalist and one-hit wonder. His first record deal with Columbia Records resulted in the 1966 single, "Caravan of Lonely Men" credited to Keith & the Admirations. Keith then moved to Mercury Records and released his solo debut, "Ain't Gonna Lie."

He is best remembered for the hit "98.6".

His second LP, 1968's "Out of Crank" failed to create public interest. The nadir came when U.S. Army officials nabbed him for draft evasion in the middle of a concert tour. He was inducted and stationed for a year in New Jersey. When he got out, Keith did some independent recording and joined Frank Zappa's 1973 touring band.

Keith recorded one last album, for RCA Records, with no luck, and then left the music business until 1986, when an attempted comeback under his real name proved unsuccessful. He also set up A.I.R. Records and produced albums for several local bands. In the 1990s the singer moved into the television industry, although he continues to play live dates.
