Way down at #95 we find "It Could Be We're In Love" by The Cryan' Shames, a long-time Chicagoland favorite. Although this record never made The Top 50 nationally, it topped the local chart here in Chicago for four straight weeks. (That's right … "All You Need Is Love" by The Beatles and "Light My Fire" by The Doors never stood a chance against this regional monster!)
We've introduced thousands and thousands of Forgotten Hits Readers to this tune over the past eighteen years, most of whom have gone out to pick up a copy of the record for themselves. Most consider it to be an undiscovered gem that really slipped thru the cracks upon its original release. Several have compared it to being every bit as good as what Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys were doing at the time … high praise indeed! This one should have been a HUGE national hit.
