Title: A Great Reminder of when Chicago was more Rock than Pop
Review: Chicago. Blood Sweat & Tears. Chase. They all brought brass to rock and roll of the early 70's. The longest lasting of the groups, Chicago, was also the most adventurous in their albums. While this greatest hits collection contains the singles versions, the band's talent still shines through. All these songs are well crafted and well delivered. And all of them are a welcome reminder of why Chicago was an important rock band of the early 70's.And that's the key. In the band's later albums, the horn section is irrelevant to the music. In these songs, the brass and sax are not only critical -- they rock.The only downside to this CD is you will miss out on the long versions of the songs. Otherwise, it's a treat for long time fans and a terrific introduction for those wanting a sample of the 'old' Chicago.
