Ain't no road just like it: Surviving band member not a fan of LSD's renaming
Updated 6/25/2021 9:47 PM CHICAGO -- Chicago's city council voted Friday to change the name of Lake Shore Drive to the name of a Black man recognized as a key settler of the city. But the last surviving member of a rock group that wrote an iconic song about the scenic expressway thinks aldermen took a wrong exit ramp by renaming it Jean Baptiste Point DuSable Lake Shore Drive. "I think it's a total atrocity," said Ted Aliotta, who was a drummer in the Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah trio. "Some individual's ego trip should not interfere with the most beautiful skyline of any city in the world."
