Album Description
Formed in its namesake city in 1967, Chicago is the first American band ever to chart albums in Billboard's Pop Top 40 in five consecutive decades. In 2002, Rhino entered into a long-term partnership with this extraordinary group to restore their extensive, genre-defying catalogue as well as develop new projects (such as 2006's XXX, their first new studio album in a decade). Now Rhino adds to Chicago's legacy and salutes their 40th anniversary with a newly compiled 2-CD collection that spans their entire recording history, from the stellar 1969 debut LP Chicago Transit Authority to Chicago XXX. With a career encompassing five consecutive #1 albums, 13 platinum albums, 21 Top 10 singles, and many other laurels, Chicago is among the most successfully charting American groups of all time.

3 out of 5 stars Best of Chicago   December 12, 2008
The best of Chicago 40th aniversary is a very good compilation of Chicago's hits. However some of the songs have been severly butchered namely Questions 67 & 68 and Beginnings up to some 50%. I's rather have them leave one song out instead of cutting two songs in half. But all in all it's a nice compilation for on the road.


5 out of 5 stars Great Memories from Chicago   December 7, 2008
I have been wanting a compilation of the Chicago music I enjoyed listening to in the 70's, and this CD was exactly what I was hoping for. I certainly got my money's worth!


1 out of 5 stars The WORST of Chicago at its 40th Anniversary (thanks Rhino guys)!!!!   October 17, 2008

I don't know what's going on with Rhino Records producers. This compilation of Chicago "best" hits is full of SINGLE versions of the songs! It also misses some other great Chicago Hits, maybe not so broadly aired as "Wish You Were Here", "25 Or 6 To 4", or "Love Me Tomorrow"... I mean, for example "Song For You" from 'Chicago XIV' album (fingerprint cover) are always excluded from these compilations!

Don't worry, "Best Of" serious collector: This Chicago's 40th Anniversary Best compilation... Just forget about it! You won't find the real "Best Of" this great band in it!



3 out of 5 stars BEWARE!!! THESE ARE THE RADIO SINGLE VERSIONS!!!   October 11, 2008

Get me wrong I love Chicago,but to release another best of 2 cd collection is a bit overkill!!! Heck, Rhinos 2002 2 cd Only The Beginning collection was heck a lot better with fuller versions of the songs,the ones here are the butchered single versions,Robert Lamm's got affected the worst!!! Who wants' to hear Beginnings(it really was only the Beginning in that case) with a running time less than 3 minutes long,kinda reminds me of what the did with Iron Butterflys In A Gadda...!!! If you like single versions,than you might like this,for my money I'll still with 2002's Only The Beginning 2 cd set or the out of print Group Portrait 4 Cd set!!! Over and out


2 out of 5 stars Not up to par   October 6, 2008
It sounded like it had been recorded from an old CD. I love Chicago and this sounded like it was 40 years old.
