Posted on Jul. 28, 2015

Last night John Records Landecker said goodbye to WLS. He announced that his final show on the air will be this Friday night. As we put together his book “Records Truly Is My Middle Name” in 2013, we went through his treasure trove of pictures. Here are just a few from the incredible ride chronicled in such vivid detail in the book…
