• There was that magical period of time when all the stars aligned... when rock and roll and comedy and radio were all simultaneously kings (1977-1998) ... when the "1927 Yankees of Radio" all gathered in the same hallway at the same time in history -- the legendary WLUP (The Loop)/Chicago created something special that will never be forgotten.
Author Rick Kaempfer, who was a member of the Loop crew from 1987-93, has gathered all the talented people who worked there to tell the story of that great radio station -- in their own words.
We're talking more than 150 interviews that resulted in some amazing true-life tales from Loop legends Jonathon Brandmeier, Steve Dahl & Garry Meier, Kevin Matthews, Sky Daniels, Mitch Michaels, Danny Bonaduce, Chet Coppock, Patti Haze, John Landecker, Bob Stroud, Bobby Skafish, Buzz Kilman, and many more, and have been lovingly compiled into handy book form in The Loop Files: An Oral History of the Most Outrageous Radio Station Ever (Eckhartz Press). Great story after great story. Unforgettable celebrity encounters. Rock and Roll mayhem. The book ships in November but is available for pre-order now.
