"February 14, 1929, St. Valentine's Day...In a warehouse on Chicago South Side"

This is the opening line in a song parady featuring song bits intermixed with story telling..

Believe it was in the mid to late 50's when it was released

I think it was the group 10cc and the song was Rubber Bullets.(?? I'll check when I get home tonight)

Try "The Night Chicago Died" by Paper Lace?

Try "The Night Chicago Died" by Paper Lace? Or The Hollies did a version

"NIGHT CHICAGO DIED" has been done by
Paper Lace, Kings Road, No Empathy, The Countdown Singers, Ricky Lee Robinson, The Recliners. The first was in the 70s, so maybe I'm on totally the wrong track??
