Illinois Speed Press was an American rock band formed – originally, in 1965, as The Rovin' Kind – in Chicago, later relocating to California. The band was formed by Paul Cotton – later of Poco – and Kal David. According to Allmusic, their sound "combined elements of R&B and country music in a powerful double-lead-guitar attack."[1] Cotton and David reunited in 2009 to perform together under the name. Cotton died in July 2021. David died in August 2022.
