[@HarlinNeal]

I had a grade school teacher who use to play this and a lot of 60's rock/folk music while we were working on assignments. This was one of those songs, and I love it now like I loved it then. It's GREAT BEING FROM CHICAGO...this song is about HOME!!!!! "...back at that same ol' place...SWEET HOME CHICAGO!!!!!"

[@sil328]

Best piano riff EVER!

[@lvgeorge]

Lots of Nice Nits, and Riffs in this Song and it's Fun to listen to, especially if you've ever been on LSD and near the Lake Michigan and the Museums! Ditto!

[@Brooklyn19501]

I am absolutely HOOKED on this! The song stays in my head for hours after watching it, but I don't mind 'cause I LOVE the song! Thanks for putting it on here!

[@HarlinNeal]

Simply...a classic Chicago song about a classic Chicago landmark. Loved it since I was a kid. That piano rift sticks in your head for the rest of your life.

[@bradleyallen533]

I left Chicago 11 years ago. When I'm homesick, I cue up You Tube and play this song. Drove this stretch many times just for the hell of it.

[@deniseweik9212]

Just love this. I remember when it first played on WLS. I was driving my 57 convertible it was perfection

[@anthonydoria4179]

O.M.G.! I have missed this song for many years ! It has brought back so many SUPER FOND MEMORIES !

[@juansantillan4747]

came to chicago in 1977 when I saw lake shore drive and the lake front felt in love with it and with a girl born in chicago never change it"s name lake shore drive its fine

[@OldiesFan10622]

Perfect marriage of music and visuals: well done!

[@randlbp]

Timeless SONG.Enough Said.

[@sherrim4602]

Awesome! One of my favorites!!

[@margaretgeisler2426]

Jim and I would go down to Old Town at least once a week and listen to Bonnie Koloc and Steve Goodman and all the others at the Earle Of Old Town Tap. Those were certainly good times and wonderful memories. Nothing like my good old Chicago

[@kvernon1]

I opened this video with the idea of sharing "Hey, there was actually a song written about Lake Shore Drive where the artists were accused of promoting LSD" ... then 5 seconds in I said "Well, so much for that great idea!" :)

[@johnnowakowski4062]

When I was at the Art Instirute back in the mid 70's, I lived with my mom just north of Hollywood and Thorndale. Then she remarried and moved to 1150 LSD at the corner of Oak Street. Great time to be alive...

[@marthathedog1]

I love this so much I could cry just thinking about those day. Thanks!

[@lenspaulding]

Nice video too! Almost got an Acid Flashback while viewing it.....God Bless...Aliota, Haynes and Jeremiah, Chicago's best!!

[@GeronimoClawz]

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

[@skyclimber3934]

My man didn't even get a ticket filming this. In the early 70's when this song and The Lincoln Park Pirates came out I lived on Belmont just a couple of blocks from LSD and every day I would walk or ride my bike to the lake through the underpass below LSD.

[@ROGER2095]

I'm glad you did this. I used to take Lake Shore Drive to work and back every day - Then 20 years ago I got a "B" pickup truck which isn't allowed, and I haven't been on Lake Shore Drive since and I miss it. But seeing this, I guess I forgot about all the traffic jams! They're worse than I remember.

[@tellthetruthoryour]

@zlaxfishnetwork you did a GREAT job on this, honestly, the color is great....I'd just like to see more lake and river maybe in your next updated video when you get the new skyscrapers that hopefully will be finished, like the Chicago Spire in a few years!!! thanks!

[@zlaxfishnetwork]

We were going out to Midway and back north, so we did not make it to south lakeshore. Good idea for a follow-up video though.

[@microeconomia]

Really good music, thank you very much.

[@Oread54]

Great song and love the video. Thanks!

[@antongirdeux07]

before i die, i will drive along this road in my old mustang and listen to this song over and over and over and over and over again, then.... eat a legit chicago dog, and not an O'hairy chicago dog.

[@VengefulBatz]

I see you got a taste of LSD traffic. Nice view of soldier field, and skyline going north

[@farmerbob7711]

love this song

[@RogerSteinbrinkh2oBrother]

Love it.I used to cruise on Sat night & Sunday morning trippin' my balls off back in the summer of '69.

[@danbeau9404]

LSD starts at Hollywood, 5700 north, and goes to 67th on the south side. Ridges are the high rises north of Hollywood we also called the Canyon. Ratso"s was a popular restaurant on Lincoln Ave and Fullerton owned by a guy name Ratso. There were radio stations In Iowa who wouldn't play the song because they refused to believe there was a street called LSD. I made many a late night trip on LSD both directions and have some wonderful memories of those rides. For those who never have, start at Hollywood, at night, and go the full route. Summer is best, it's worth the trip.

[@alfatourist]

East & west, Chicago is the best, without a doubt.

[@becky30simmons]

memories !!!!!

[@cyberties]

Actually, they have at least two albums: Lake Shore Drive(LSD) and Slippin' Away. Both are great. Where this song gives you an aural picture of what you see on this clip, a song on the other album (Keeper of the Tolls) does the same for I 294.

[@1sufesighingmadwi247]

❤

[@marlenegoodman8673]

Yeah, that's about right, sometimes, traffic, traffic, traffic, but no better place to drag your heels than Lake Shore Drive!

[@tellthetruthoryour]

@geckoisgiko L.A. is just like the 1960s song by Dionne Warwick.... she sang: "LA is a great big freeway, put a hundred down and buy a car" LA is just a giant suburb, until 1983 Chicago had the 2nd largest population, and then the LA city and county council to add all the suburbs and towns, even the San Fernando Valley "The Valley" into its city area and the population from the other towns/suburbs made the population jump almost a million, so then it overtook Chicago as the # 2 most populated

[@zlaxfishnetwork]

yes, that is correct, soldier's field

[@PampersPete]

Just bought my plane ticket. After 12 long years,LSD,here I come!

[@doorsforce]

up and down....great =)

[@mars1566]

1 person from out of town got stuck on Lake Shore Drive during the '11 blizzard.

[@BruceRTalbot]

Would have been netter if not shot during Rush Hour. Maybe a Sunday mornign would give a better flow?

[@timevans3457]

The left lane is the new slow lane, just a heads up for y'all.

[@101southsideboy]

I was on LSD this past summer and it appeared that traffic does move this fast in real time . I was doing 15 over the limit and I was still getting past up as if I was doing 5 -10 below the posted speed limit ( 45 mph summer 35 mph winter or 0 mph last week lol)

[@tellthetruthoryour]

@BRIGHTBRIGHTLIGHT I agree, video showed too much of the backs of cars and license, not any lake at all and only 2 seconds of the river. and it went back and forth across downtown and the north side...they should have filmed it from the passenger side in the far right lane from Hollywood all the way past downtown, that way there would have been more scenes that weren't blocked by other cars and I think they were paranoid about pointing the camera at other cars to get the view, which I understand

[@djtiger76]

Sooo... Lake Shore Drive goes so much further south than the McCormick Place. Like 50 more blocks (approx 6 miles). Beautiful open park land and little to no traffic. OH and there's that HISTORICAL building called The Museum of Science and Industry at the south end. More high rises and a huge park at the very end. Guess this was about the north side of LSD. *shrugs*

[@paulmcfarlane3026]

DJTiger Sean Jackson he didn't want to get murdered.

[@djtiger76]

Ha.. But i think you got your roadways confused. 290 is where you'd get shot. South LSD.. never a problem

[@tellthetruthoryour]

@alfatourist not trying to be mean,,, not sure about your comment,,, but LAke shore Drive goes north and south along the lake and through town.... or maybe you were just trying to rhyme with East.WEst, Best...????

[@Marcel_Audubon]

You've never heard of E. Lake Shore Dr.?? most expensive property in Chicago

[@zlaxfishnetwork]

@tellthetruthoryour very insightful!

[@notBMW18]

You can tell how irritating Chicago traffic can be..even in fast motion lol.

[@PirateAndBum]

I have always enjoyed Lake Shore Drive. LSD is considered a boulevard, and silly Illinois classifies a pickup truck as a TRUCK which are not allowed. However, by adding a cap to the back of the pickup it becomes an RV, and is allowed. Go figure.

[@joekuta]

i thought this was going to be a motorcycle video

[@darrell60302]

there is a speed trap at 31st street

[@jackhamilton1882]

How could you not go all the down way to the end of the LSD is beyond me. Such a White burb thing. I remember when I biked down the lake with a girl who use to biking with people from the burbs. Wow, I didn't realize LSD went this far she said. LOL Give me a break.

[@zealandzen]

Soldier Field

[@yesand2005]

Hey, look - SoldierFieldMuseumOfScience&Industry!

[@butterp7]

I see you only went to 31st street south and turned around..LOL!!

[@walleyeking23]

Nice but you should have taken it all the way down to Jackson PArk. You didnt make it all the way to the rats. Oh well, still cool.

[@mattp123614]

@laskyline92 POS integra

[@AnnyongRings]

@mattp123614 Lol

[@tellthetruthoryour]

I'd give you a higher rating if you'd shown more of "The Lake" than 3 seconds and a speck of blue/green when you were going north of the river. Get an SUV!Did you have a short camera-person or were they more interested in filming the back of cars and license plates than the lake or the river.. I mean, I'm not being a bitch, but the road is called "Lake" shore drive, and the song....is also. Maybe redo it or splice in some LAke and River shots into it and get away from all the damn cars in it!
