It's been interesting to listen to. Many would have preferred another "Rewind" but this isn't bad.
: I'm listening to the complete history of WLS-AM 890 in Chicago. They are playing old audio archives, interviews and music today over the course of the past 85 years and their three formats, [i]The Prairie Farmer station [/i](country music from 1924 to 1960); [i]The Big 89 / Music Radio WLS [/i](Top 40 Rock 1960 to 1990) and again as [i]The Big 89 [/i]News / Conservative Talk 1990 to present.
: It's nice to see a radio station that embraces and celebrates it's history instead of acting embarrassed and ashamed of their past formats. :D
