The pieces collected here reflect Studs' wide-ranging interests and travels, as well as his abiding connection to his hometown, Chicago. A fitting postscript to a lifetime of listening, P.S. is a truly Turkelesque display of extraordinary range and talent, and the amazing people he found to talk to.
