2007 WLS Big 89 Rewind Part 3: Fred Winston, Lyle Dean, Catherine Johns & Les Grobstein

Part 2 featured the first actual music show on WLS in 20 years, with Larry Lujack and Tommy Edwards together again on WLS. Here in Part 3, the Rewind special continued with the antics of Fred Winston, 9-12.


What an amazing talent! Fred Winston is just as witty here as ever. Listen as he interacts with Lyle Dean. You'll even hear them do "Choose Your News", a cool take on one of the day's interesting stories.


Catherine Johns does the first newscast of the day, Lyle Dean does the rest. Les Grobstein is here, as he is in Part 1. Not being from Chicago and not having been blessed with hearing Grobstein on a daily basis, I have reached the conclusion that Les Grobstein didn't especially get along with many of the WLS staffers during the MusicRadio years. Although, Grobstein and Fred Winston seem to get along pretty well.


This is a FUN Aircheck, and as the first two, all the music has been scoped out because of copyright issues.
