  1. Would love to get your impressions of Chicago’s albums. They range from fantastic to forgettable, with their 70s work showing them at their best. Saw them a few years ago in concert, they still put on a great show!

    • It’s going to take a while for me to get to Chicago – I only added them to the list recently. I’d quite like to cover the first 6-7 albums – I’m not so interested in them after Kath’s passing.

      • I agree with you, their catalog after Kath’s death is, for the most part, forgettable, though they did have a few decent songs sprinkled throughout.
