162. Chicago - Chicago Transit Authority


CTA album.jpg

Release Date: 1969
Label: Columbia

Chicago were a band so famous they had an American city named after them. This was their first release and predates their softer rock style by a number of years. This is a double album, reminiscent of 'Blood, Sweat and Tears' but with a lot more variety - not all of which is pleasant. Of the better songs, I loved 'Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?', 'Someday', and 'I'm a Man'. Unfortunately the whole album is ruined by 'Free Form Guitar', a 'song' that makes 'Revolution 9' sound like the best song ever.

Rating: 5/10
Favourite Track: Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
