One of the great parts about NYC in the summer is the free concerts and the fact they do a pretty good job at covering every genre.  However, my favorite part is the free classic soul concerts the city puts together.  Even though it isn’t always the original lineup you still get to see living legends and groups who influenced most of the modern music posted on here.  On 08.07.08 City Parks brings us another gem.  Fuck Kanye, The Chi-Lites are the original Chi-town superstars and they take the stage at Springfield Park.  The concert runs from 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM so get there on time.
