Heard this on the radio this morning, because WXRT in Chicago is awesome. Best at full volume.

Yes. Yes he is. As is anyone who can play the Delta Blues.

I can do this all day, but I’ve got work to do...

I’ll go out on a limb and say WXRT is probably the best commercial radio station in this country, if not the world.

I’m spoiled living here. I have no use for satellite radio, and never use the CD player in my car, either. I just listen to WXRT.

I’m not familiar with radio options in other cities, but your statement is fact.

I am 100% with you. It’s 95% of the time what’s on when I start my car. The other 2 stations are WONC (North Central College’s station) or 101.1 (occasionally).

Love it. This recording is almost too clean for this song - ha!

Is this more along the lines of what you’re looking for?

Actually, even it’s too clean... :)
