Continuing our explorations into concert art, concert artifacts, Beatles-related bootleg experiment, here’s news about The “94.7 WLS-FM Rock & Roll Art Show” going on this weekend in downtown Chicago.
Ron Campbell, director of the legendary Saturday morning Beatles Cartoon series that aired on ABC from September 25, 1965 through April 20, 1969 and animator on the Beatles film Yellow Submarine will make a rare personal appearance at the “94.7 WLS-FM Rock & Roll Art Show”.
