How many “ifs” have you had in your life? What if I could take you back to when you were in your teens or early twenties and didn’t have a care in the world? What if I could tell you stories about your music and the people who made it that you’ve never heard before?

How a teenager at a Brother Rice High School sock hop left her mark in a very unusual place on a member of Paul Revere and The Raiders! Or, the story of Larry Lujack and how a crazed pilot (me!) left him ashen white and speechless while high over Chicago! Or, a naughty girl named “Gloria” and what she did in her bedroom that helped her become rich and famous! And, last, but not least how the Monkees rode the “Last Train to Clarksville” and almost made a monkey out of themselves!

I’m Mother Weber’s Oldest Son Clark. I was very much a part of your rock and roll musical scene in the ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s. As the Program Director and disc jockey at WLS radio in Chicago, I chose the music that was played on that 50,000 watt rock and roll giant. My new book is complete with dozens of pictures and a special CD that returns you to those fun years. Come with me and we’ll go back in time to when rock and roll was clean and the Chicago River was dirty. I can guarantee you that you’ll love the trip!
