Default Re: Do Any Of You Remember When It Happened?

I don't recall too specifically, but as a teenager in suburban Chicago (and a Lightfoot fan even then!) I do recall knowing of the "event" before I first heard the song.... In other words I knew what the song was about.

It was probably while I was working in the liquor store where I worked for several years as a stockboy. The radio station that the owner had playing all the time was a combination of music and news, and I recall hearing of the death of Mayor Daley.... I recall my exact location when the news came over.... wierd how we can remember things like that.
