“The Voice of Summer”
is the last filmed interview with late Chicago
Cubs broadcasting legend Vince Lloyd. While
working on “The Boys of Spring”
documentary, Cubs spring training P.A. Announcer
Timothy Sheridan traveled to Green Valley,
Arizona in 2002 to interview the former
Cubs announcer.
What transpired was one of the most compelling,
open, and honest interviews given by a Cubs
insider. That day in 2002 Timothy joined
Vince in his home to watch the Cubs on WGN
and talk about Vince’s 23 years as
Radio Voice of the Chicago Cubs, and his
insights on 38 years as a WGN sports announcer.
From 1965 to 1987, Vince was WGN’s
radio play-by-play man for the Cubs. For
many who listened on radio, or grew up during
that time, Lloyd was as some of the Cubs
management referred to him "The Voice
of Summer". |
