WLS and WCFL. Along with those 50k watt blowers came some great DJs. Dick Biondi, Larry Lujack, Clark Weber, Dex Card. Beatle haircuts and Beatle boots. It was a big deal to have one of them MC one of our HS dances that featured New Colony 6, Buckinghams, or Cryan' Shames. . As AM radio phased out and FM became the thing, we had The Loop and WMET and all those cast of characters behind the mic. Now, everything is programmed within an inch of our lives. But, even in Gary we had a 60s top 40 rock station.
