Sound Opinions at The Pabst Theater
As co-hosts of the self-described “world’s only rock ’n’ roll talk show,” Sound Opinions—heard locally every Sunday on Radio Milwaukee—Chicago music writers Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot have done for music criticism what Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert once did for film criticism, which is take it out of the hands of geeky obsessives and straight into the ears of regular music fans. The parallels with Siskel and Ebert don’t end there—Kot writes for Siskel’s Chicago Tribune and once worked with him as a copy editor, and DeRogatis says Ebert was his reason for taking a job with the Chicago Sun-Times. Here, they will once again pay homage to their heroes by presenting their choices for the best rock movies of all time.
