Did any of you listen to WGN Radio this afternoon?

"Jacob Kaplan and Patrick Steffes chat with Bob and Marianne about their website Forgotten Chicago, dedicated to documenting the history of the city’s infrastructure."

I remember listening to Bob on the radio at WLS in the 1970's.

I wish I'd known it was going to be on. I don't listen to commercial radio very much, but mainly jazz, on COD's staion.

Bob is very much in tune with Chicago, moreso than any radio / TV personality I've ever known.

For the fans of Bob's stint on WLS, I uploaded an aircheck of his first show on WLS, May 8th, 1973, to the Chicagoland Radio & Media website.

I could remember my folks on late Saturday nights listening to a show called,"When Music was Music". The show was hosted by radio personality Mike Rapchak.
