The Veteranos are on the road again. The pensioners' bus has headed north to Chi-Town for some cruising round the Chicago soul scene. As ever, there are some classic favorites, but you may well find some harder-to-find tunes as we leave the main roads and tour the back streets. Give us the green light if you like what we came up with. Those are The Vibrations on the cover. Talking of vibrations, maybe this ramshackle old jalopy will hold itself together for some further mileage ! RossyBoy for the Veteranos

Oh yeah, now we’re cooking with gas. This is Chicago at it’s best, the real deal. The brothers Butler are sounding good as are the Mighty Mighty Dells. And what can I say about my sweetie Sugar Pie? Methinks you are gonna have to re-visit Chicago real soon, and maybe include something from Patti Drew and those lovely Drew-Vels from Evanston/Chicago. Yes, with a name like Chi-Town I am just a bit prejudiced. But rightly so....
