Seein' MP doesn't mind if we go out of sequence I'll post a Chicago album that the critics roasted but I really liked a lot. "Hot Streets", released when punk and new wave were making a huge impact on the rock music scene, I bought a vinyl copy of this one for the song "Alive Again", and for about 15 years it remained the only Chicago album in the library.

^^^^ Hot streets !! Yaaaa! Good album..and yeah it's cool to go out of synch for this...make it a big 'ol Chicago block party.

I prefer the older Chicago...but am not opposed to the pop end of it at all, like the late 80's material.

I love their first 3 or 4 albums, especially the first one. One of the most unique bands in rock history. I really lost interest after they started writing love songs, somewhere around '75 or so.

^^ That didn't bug me sooo much but I do like the OLDER stuff ALOT better!!

Also I went through and cleaned up and replaced some dead links since we've been bumped here.

I was a fan of quite a bit of Chicago's work from the early 70's up to about the mid 80's (ie: Chicago 17 or so, if I remember correctly). At that point, I pretty much lost interest in anything new they released. Honestly, I can't even say for sure if they reelased any new material after that. *heh*


One of the tunes from the 80's that I still love. Brings back some memories from my teens

Love Me Tomorrow
