WRock FM95 Chicago Radio Retro Tee

Chicago’s 94.7 FM hit the reset button at 7 a.m. on May 22, 1980—looping Donna Summer’s “Last Dance” before dropping its disco skin and relaunching as WRCK-FM, “95 W-ROCK.” The new calls promised “Chicago’s Best Rock,” with hometown star Bob Sirott anchoring mornings. For a single, incandescent summer the playlist swung from Van Halen barn-burners to Air Supply ballads, backed by big-voiced jingles that shouted the dial position every other break. Ratings never caught fire, and on October 20, 1980 the station flipped back to WLS-FM—but collectors still hunt those brief-run WRCK bumper stickers and aircheck cassettes that bottle the season Chicago flirted with “W-ROCK.” :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
