[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1386718, member: 1246"] August 17, 1974 In America, it is a fairly well-known historical fact that the legendary mob boss [URL='http://www.history.com/topics/al-capone']Al Capone[/URL] was brought to justice not by uniformed officers of the [URL='http://www.history.com/topics/chicago']Chicago[/URL] Police Department, but by the punctilious accountants of the FBI. However, in England there were at least a few young men that didn't have all the facts straight, and in the [URL='http://www.history.com/topics/1970s']1970s[/URL] their pop group from Nottingham turned their romantic misunderstanding of American history into a historically dubious yet gloriously catchy hit record. Though it was never intended for the American market, Paper Lace's "The Night Chicago Died" crossed the Atlantic and became a #1 hit on the U.S. pop charts on this day in 1974. [/QUOTE]
