WBBM 1970's Promo with the music that led to the Palmer News Music Package All Copyrights are acknowledged if the copyright owner wants the video removed please send me a message to remove the video
A Chicago classic: A who's who of Chicago News broadcasting legends: Kurtis, Jacobson, Porterfield, Kauflin, Morris, and Siskel. Joel Daley and Fahey Flynn were great at WLS-7, but WBBM was the STANDARD in that era. The greatest promo music EVER! Still gives me chills today!
This is crazy awesome.

@dnovak131313 I believe that's John Drummond; yet another Chicago news broadcasting legend I failed to mention. What a team in those years!
