Here's a short excerpt from AM Chicago on WLS Channel 7, in which legendary jazz pianist (and a music figure long associated with the Windy City), Ramsey Lewis, performs a soft ballad entitled "After the Rain," written by James Mack, which he would later perform in a 1988 album with the Philharmonia Orchestra, Classic Encounter, issued on CBS Masterworks FM / MK 42661. Also featuring host Robb Weller. Unfortunately the person who recorded this only saved this bit.

Views: 1375

Here is the ending to WTTW Channel 11's Image Union featuring "Bob" the cardboard mascot and his gravelly intonation, "Hey! That was a pretty good show - I think I'll watch again NEXT week." :-)

Oh, don't forget the brilliant "Media Burn" by Ant Farm - the short film shown at the end with the car crashing into the burning TV's. I love the music that goes with it too. :-)
