WRCK Jingle Question

Remember WRCK at 94.7 for a brief time in the early 80's?

Anyone know who did the jingles for the station and the package name?
"Listen to the rock, W-Rock."

I know Jam did the jingles for sister station WLS at the time, but I've never come across the demo for this particular package anywhere. Doesn't really sound like Jam anyway.

It seemed to me that the one jingle was done by a Chicago music production house and not by any of the usual suspects. A woman named Jo Mapes, who was a singer and journalist in Chicago along with working in advertising, said that she wrote the lyrics for the 30-second version of the jingle that was used in their TV ads.
