Celebrating & Honoring the Life of CBS '60 Minutes' Reporter Ed Bradley

Ed Bradley (June 22, 1941 – November 9, 2006) was an American journalist, best known for his work on the long-running CBS News television magazine 60 Minutes.

Ed Bradley, a veteran journalist I always admired and respected and still do. So many stories and tributes being done Friday morning on all the networks and stations.

Some of the best stories I heard today were told by Ed Bradley's best friend/NBC4/Philly's own Jim Vance when he told WPGC's Donnie Simpson of his friendship with Ed Bradley in Philadelphia in the 60's and over the years. Now, that was good.

Also learning from Jim Vance that two of Ed Bradley's favorite Jazz albums were Sonny Rollins Way Out West and Mose Allison Seventh Son and how they would play those albums out by listening to them so much. Peace and Blessings to The Bradley Family and Friends.
