City Lights with Brian Linehan

memory

YouTube user Retrontario frequently uploads fantastic retro-Toronto-centric gems.  These clips never fail to bring back a ton of memories for me, so I feature them from time to time.

Brian Linehan passed away almost five years ago.  He hosted City Lights, a show I would watch because I found Linehan's interviewing style to be so detailed and unique.  You may recall Martin Short's send up of Linehan on SCTV, Brock Linehan.

This is the City Lights opening from 1989.  Hearing that theme song takes me back.  It was the only theme song the show ever had.
