WCCO Top Gun Weather
by admin on May.19, 2012, under Minneapolis Weather Wcco
As a TV director, sometimes we can sneak in something fun. This time the weather guy (Chris Shaffer) and I conspired to get some footage from one of our favorite movies on the air – Top Gun. This is from WCCO’s August 11 2011 newscast, Minneapolis/St. Paul DMA. Liz Collin is the female anchor, Mike Max on sports.
Video Rating: 5 / 5
When WCCO stopped signing off the air early in the morning in the late 1970s, they replaced the lack of signal with this computer graphic/text “news” report that aired in a continued loop for hours until the broadcast day re-started. This originally aired after “This Must be the Place” in June 1979.

A 1944 promotional film for the Minneapolis Star-Journal newspaper. This movie is part of the collection: Prelinger Archives Producer: Handy (Jam) Organization Sponsor: Minneapolis Star-Journal Audio/Visual: Sound, B&W

Bobby Lyle is a jazz, soul jazz, and smooth jazz pianist. He was born in Memphis, Tennessee but grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota in a home near the corner of Park Avenue and 32nd Street. His father, reportedly, was a sports writer for the Star Tribune newspaper. He had his first gig at 16 and played in the 1960s with Gene and Jerry Hubbard in the Bobby Lyle Trio. They were very popular at the Blue Note on Plymouth Avenue on Minneapolis’ North Side, and at the Ebony Lounge on University Avenue in St. Paul. When Ramsey Lewis left the Trio which he started and made famous, Lyle became the keyboard player for Young Holt Unlimited. In 1970, he had a meeting and subsequent jam session with Jimi Hendrix who was planning on starting a jazz-rock group with Lyle and fellow Minnesotans Willie Weeks and Bill Lordan as the rhythm section before his death later that year. He moved to Los Angeles in 1974 and soon went on the road with Sly and the Family Stone. During this time he also had a stint with the Ronnie Laws band. This led to a meeting with Wayne Henderson of the Jazz Crusaders who then took him to Capitol Records for his first solo recording deal in 1977. After three albums (“The Genie”, “New Warrior”, and “Night Fire”), Capitol abandoned their jazz division. Without a record deal, Lyle returned to his sideman work in 1981 with George Benson. In that same year he was a guest artist on the Yellowjackets debut LP. Extensive tours with Bette Midler, Al Jarreau, and Anita Baker …

Former Governor Arne Carlson on the Budget Impasse, and the problems inside the Republican Party. “If you look today at the Minnesota stalemate that has occurred–the two most important people in that contest are the governor of the state of Minnesota Mark Dayton and Tony Sutton. And the big difference is, we the people elected one of those.”–Arne Carlson. On May 27th in Minneapolis City Hall, hundreds met to celebrate the birthday centennial of Hubert Humphrey.

Famous relationships developed between Humphrey and Republicans Everett Dirkson, Barry Goldwater and others. Humphrey, is also credited with breaking the longest running filibuster in Senate history. How did he do this? How did he perfect the “art of the compromise?” Minnesota, can look to Humphrey for solutions to today’s problems, and that includes the current budget impasse.
