   About Chicago

You're The Inspiration





Stone of Sisyphus

Chicago's great “lost” album, was recorded in 1993 and set aside for fifteen years, becoming a much-debated, often-bootlegged cult record. As Bill DeYoung writes in his liner notes, “SISYPHUS attained legendary status among rock critics, Chicago fans, those who've heard parts of it and those who have only read about it.” At last, Rhino leaves no stone unturned, making this previously underground treasure available for the first time ever, with an additional four bonus tracks.


The Best of Chicago:
40th Anniversary Edition

Chicago's expansive catalogue continues to be “Feelin' Stronger Every Day” with Rhino's ongoing upgrade and expansion of their repertoire. In honor of the legendary group's 1967 formation in the Second City, the latest addition to Chicago's musical bounty is the hit-packed THE BEST OF CHICAGO: 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION, a career-spanning, 2CD anthology presenting thirty newly remastered songs chronicling almost forty years of their creative evolution.


XXX

Chicago's 30th album, their first in ten years, introduces 13 new studio tracks ranging from signature ballads to funked-up grooves to solid rockers, including the lead single "Feel."


The Very Best of Chicago:
Only The Beginning

They’re a hard habit to break. Over three decades strong, Chicago ranks second only to The Beach Boys as the most successful American rock group ever. This two-disc collection contains 39 hit singles spanning their complete history.


Chicago V

A fascinating segue into their later work, this 1972 chart-topper featured avant-jazz workouts, political commentary, and hints of the ballad style that would carry Chicago into the next decade. Includes the hit “Saturday In The Park” plus the bonus tracks “Song For Richard And His Friends” (Studio Version) and “Dialogue” (Remake).


2007 is a milestone year for Chicago, the legendary rock ’n’ roll band with horns. Well known for extraordinary creativity, influential musicianship and staggering commercial success, Chicago now celebrates its 40th Anniversary – a show of longevity rarely achieved in most careers, let alone the music business.

Starting in 1967, well before all the hits started flowing, Chicago established a reputation for its powerful live show. Fueled by a passion for music, Chicago’s members exploded the conventions of what rock music could or should be. The result was a ground-breaking new form, played by extraordinarily talented musicians. Early fans like Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin were sufficiently impressed - they took the group out on their respective tours. Once the group began making records, fans rewarded the group with record sales of 100,000,000, 20 Top 10 hits, 5 number one albums, 5 Number One singles, and 5 Gold singles. To date, Chicago is the only American band to chart Top 40 albums in five decades – a landmark accomplishment.

Farewell Bill. I will miss you severely. You were the best thing that happened to this band and the reason for turning me into a fan in 1988.

I am almost 50 yrs. of age and I have been listening and learning from this band since I was a wee lad! My girlfriend and I drove from Boise to Cactus Petes to see you last weekend and were thrilled beyond words! It has been my life's goal to get good enough on the trumpet to play with you! I can't tell you how much your music has meant to me in my life and sincerely thank you for the gifts you have been to me. To another 30 years of the best rock and roll out there and the most consumate musicians anywhere, I tip my hat to ya!

KevinMac and Cathie
