Wow...I live in Chicago and never knew that Linda was Canadian!

BTW... whatever happened to that reporter you had who always wore a hat, the one who was in the Harrison Ford version of "The Fugitive" in 1993?

Yeah, the 'BBM rendition has its own feel... but, as a native NYer, I stand by the WCBS rendition used in the late 80s as best in all CBS Land.

If this is indeed from 1990 this theme was a custom made theme for WBBM using the "I love Chicago" signature and not the O&O Music. No other stations to my knowledge used this theme.

yes she is

Is Linda McLennan Canadian? She sure sounds like it.

I'm Bill Kurtis & you know my lovely wife...Donna LaPietra (all done in Bill Kurtis' voice...LOL)...if you are from Chicago & know who Roe Conn/Steve Dahl are, you know they both do a perfect imitation of him

Thank you. I've heard him doing station promos and liners for over 20 years. He's another one of the last few good announcers in the business.
If anyone knows the name of the announcer who did this news open voiceover, please post it here. I've heard him for years on KOIN-TV in Portland, Oregon, and other stations. He's great at those VO's.

It's the legendary Charlie Van Dyke, still doing the job on lots of local stations, was formerly a DJ during the heyday of Top 40 Radio.
