Although it mentions notorious Chicago mobster Al Capone by name, "The Night Chicago Died" is about a fictitious shoot-out between the Capone gang and the Chicago Police. It may have been inspired by 1929's Saint Valentine's Day Massacre although that involved Capone's men killing seven of Bugs Moran's gang and had nothing to do with the police.
