Jan was kind enough to contribute several stories to "Records Truly Is My Middle Name" and this story of how he hired John 30 years ago was one of them.

Landecker & Jeffries
From this morning's RAMP Newsletter, this little tidbit from two Chicago radio pros...
We thought you'd get a kick out of this vintage photo that was shared by Jan Jeffries, Cumulus SVP of Programming and PD of Classic Hits WLS-FM/Chicago. Sharp-eyed readers will recognize a couple of dashing radio icons -- that's Jeffries (right) and fellow legend John Records Landecker (left) during a much earlier tour of duty at WLS -- this photo was taken in 1985 during a station party. As Jeffries explains to RAMP, "I just happened to run across this photo in a box of old pictures -- I was PD of WLS-FM and John had just rejoined WLS. I thought it was cool that 'history is repeating itself' 30 years later at WLS."
