I love a good record store, and for this episode, I’m focused one of the greatest record stores in Chicago history: The Flip Side.
The Flip Side: Where Chicago Rocked is a new book about the birth, innovation, success and eventual end of the Flip Side chain. To talk about the book, I’m joined by co-author Ken Churilla, who wrote the book with Flip Side owners Carl and Larry Rosenbaum, and Chicago radio legend Jeff Schwartz, who led industry-changing marketing efforts for the chain. If you were around for the Flip Side days, you may also know him as “Mr. Cheap.”
We met at Scooby’s (4319 Prince St, Downers Grove, IL 60515), one of Jeff’s favorite places. Sure enough, he was right: Scooby’s fries are fantastic.
If you’re interested in music, record stores, entrepreneurship, radio or creative thinking, you’re going to dig this episode.
