Our Review

Chicago transformed its brass-based sound into pure gold within a year of its 1969 recording debut. One of the most popular horn bands of their era, they fused the dynamics of big band jazz with the rhythmic drive of ‘60s rock. Initially, they delved into challenging musical suites and free-flowing jams. But, as this well-selected “best of” package makes clear, Chicago quickly found that tuneful midtempo numbers and romantic balladry were their true forte. In early hits like “Color My World,” “Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?,” and “Saturday in the Park,” the band emphasizes smooth, plaintive vocals and tight, lustrous arrangements. Tunes like “Wishing You Were Here,” “If You Leave Me Now” and “Old Days” continue in a soft yet distinctive vein, boasting seamless ensemble work along with inescapable hooks. Weathering the loss of lead singer Peter Cetera in 1985, the band remains faithful to their core sound on such melodically-rich singles as “Look Away” and “What Kind of Man Would I Be?” Looking back, it’s not hard to see why this evergreen group enjoyed such a winning streak. Today, Chicago remains a pop music institution, as familiar and much-loved as its city namesake.

Customer Reviews

Chicago is the Best (5 stars)
I love Chicago. This album is almost a list of hits, and nearly all songs are instantly recognizable to anyone who knows anything about good music. I like their Peter Cetera stage much better, but Chicago has continued to consistently tour and represent their time period. The tragic loss of Terry Kath (The guitar soloist on 25 or 6 to 4) was huge for the band, and they almost broke up. However, they didn't, and that didn't stop them

My soundtrack (5 stars)
Unlike "Crap" and his review, I've actually listened to this album and there are more than two songs worth buying it for. Chicago was basically the soundtrack to my teenage years and just beyond. Saturday night cruising was never complete without Chicago, Meatloaf or Peter Frampton in the tape deck. One of the finest concerts I attended as a teenager was Chicago and I attended quite a few. Make no mistake about it, if you would

Like listening to the decline of an era (3 stars)
Chicago's earliest tracks, like Make Me Smile, Does Anyone Really Know, and Beginnings are some of the most powerful, nostalgic, and rich songs of their era. They were a powerful part of my childhood and now, a good twenty years on, I still value their harmony and creativity. They stay in my play lists. This compilation is remarkable in providing a window into the decline of a brilliant band as it parallels the general rise of an increasingl

Biography

Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s

According to Billboard chart statistics, Chicago is second only to the Beach Boys as the most successful American rock band of all time, in terms of both albums and singles. Judged by album sales, as certified by the R.I.A.A., the band does not rank quite so high, but it is still among the Top Ten best-selling U.S. groups ever. If such statements of fact surprise, that's because Chicago has been singularly underrated since the beginning of its long career, both because of its musical ambitions (to...
