I had several Chicago albums as a teenager, much to the amusement of some of my friends. Yes, I love rock and roll. Hard rock, classic rock, metal, and yes, soft rock. There is a whole wide world of Rock music out there. Chicago is one of the best.

Chicago is another one of those bands that it is better to not write a lot of words about in a post. You should just let the music speak for itself. So, that is what I will do here
