The Chicago sound is fully formed here - brass arrangements mix with rock guitar and some free form jazz style improvisation to stretch things out (particularly on side 4). Plus, of course, some catchy commercial sounding songs (particularly on sides 1 and 2).
Stars of the show: producer William Guercio; Robert Lamm (keyboards, lead vocals); Pete Cetera (bass, lead vocals); Terry Kath (guitar, lead vocals); James Pankow (trombone and brass arrangements).
Where do they all belong? The band would go mega in due course but these are their awesome beginnings.
