Rich in history, not only the music, but there is also a story being told. This is an electrifying show of how four rock ‘n roll pioneers made history. The Daily Herald, Around The Town Chicago, Chicago Theatre Review, Chicago Culture Authority, Broadway World and NewCity Chicago highly recommend this performance.
