This week's Secret History of Chicago Music is about a band with an unlikely dynamic; it includes a mother and her son. Read more about this unique garage band below 👇 | ✍️ Steve Krakow
Since 2004 Plastic Crimewave has used the Secret History of Chicago Music to shine a light on worthy artists with Chicago ties who’ve been forgotten, underrated, or never noticed in the first place.
The hook here is that the lead singer in Society’s Children was Sassone’s mother—an arrangement I’ve never encountered in another garage band. Their story even has something of a happy ending, in that a full-length compilation of their long-lost recordings finally came out in July. That young band, which Sassone formed with two cousins and a schoolmate, was called Patrick & the Shamrocks. They played high school dances, parties, and band battles, and in 1966 they released their lone single. The A side, “Yes, That’s What I’m Gonna Do” has a folk-punky Byrds-via-Dylan jangle, and the B side, “Wind Blowing Through the Trees,” is even more melodic, with an endearingly primitive 12-string shamble.
Society’s Children recorded “Mister Genie Man” at Columbia Records Studios in Chicago on December 13, 1968. It’s now considered a “punkadelic” masterpiece: sounding like Grace Slick, Doreen wails doomy lyrics while blasts of fuzz guitar and propulsive Farfisa organ double down hard. Sudlow soon left to join the military, and the drummer’s spot in Society’s Children became something of a revolving-door situation. Fortunately, Kolada stayed for many years. The group continued to gig steadily, playing at nightclubs, bars, hotel lounges, private parties, dances, and weddings. Sassone told It’s Psychedelic Baby the story of a strange show at an air force base in downstate Illinois.
