I liked Mercy, Mercy by the Buckinghams over their other songs.

WIND started playing rock in 1959 along with the hit parade stuff. (No black artists though) I switched over to WLS in 1961 and WCFL in 1967.

Great Anthology of Chi Town 60.s music.I was living in Rockford through the sixties and got to see almost all of these bands because they played Rkfd. What a joy to grow up in the middle of all this exciting rock music evolution.WLSs & WCFL were king. What great memories !

I grew up in the L.A. area in the sixties and seventies with great local Music But I always Knew Chicago had Great Kick-ass MUSIC!

the buckinghams had some great songs and were the best dressed band of the 60's in my opinion.

Dennis Tufano was the lead singer of the Buckinghams. He is still active today with a growing fan base.

Jerry Smith was our C BRUNO distributor, and we at THE MUSIC SHOPPE in Wheeling Il thought the world of him

Ronnie Rice was the main singer

@SammyBee1957 "It SEEMED like every young white high school-aged male wanted to start a band." Taken out of context and not meant to be a racist remark. This was a local program about Chicago-area garage bands of the 60's, and the commentator, Bob Sirott, is correct.

Does anyone know who the two lead singers are? I know there were changes in band members throughout the years and it's hard to recognize some of their faces on the video.
