When soul music was king in 1975 Chicago, four guys got together to play a different kind of music. Since that time, bands and trends have come and gone.

They’re celebrating their 40th anniversary with a show at the Old Town School of Folk Music Saturday and they give us a preview. (Courtesy of Special Consensus)
