Am I a sucker for puns? Check. Chicago soul? check check. Major Lance? check check CHECK!
Behold, all 3 three traits are found in this very 45. Although one could argue that since this was recorded in NYC it's not a true Chicago soul record, my argument would be that Major Lance simply is the epitome of Chicago soul, no matter WHERE he recorded.
Off to MOD Chicago!
