Uncle Lar and Snot Nosed Tommy

This little tidbit was in Robert Feder's column this morning...

On the fifth anniversary of his passing, Larry Lujack continues to be revered as one of America’s greatest radio personalities and Chicago’s preeminent disc jockey for the ages. The Radio Hall of Famer and self-proclaimed “Superjock” died at 73 of esophageal cancer in Santa Fe, New Mexico, on December 18, 2013. From the time he landed in Chicago as late-night personality at WCFL in 1967 through the two decades he dominated Top 40 powerhouse WLS 890-AM, he was without peer. More on Lujack’s extraordinary life and career will be revealed in the soon-to-be-published autobiography of Tommy Edwards, the radio legend long known as Lujack’s “Animal Stories” sidekick Lil’ Tommy. “Remembering Uncle Lar’. What a great talent!” Edwards wrote on Facebook Monday. “There was another side of Larry Lujack you may not know. You will soon. Stay tuned.”

I know what press is releasing it!
