Ebenezer Baptist Church, Robert Marovich, and Sound Opinions guest DJ with host Stephen Kallao for “Sense Of Place: Chicago”

There’s a 124 year-old building on the south side of Chicago that played an important part in the development of Gospel music. For Sense of Place: Chicago, World Cafe heads to Ebenezer Baptist Missionary Church to learn about its unique place in music history. Then, Greg Kot and Jim Derogatis, hosts of the long running rock ‘n’ roll discussion show Sound Opinions, share their picks for the quintessential Chicago album.
