CHICAGO....(the band) This TUESDAY CHICAGO releases their 5 CD BOX SET including DVD, it is the most extensive collection yet of their work. It still amazes me that CHICAGO is not in the HALL OF FAME!
What the fuck is with that about, the Dixie cups and del shannon are in there but CHICAGO isnt. So maybe the 80's ballads were cheesey but The Rolling Stones are in and their albums through the 80's and most of the 90's were pretty bad. CHICAGO is now in its 36th YEAR, they recently got all of their rights back and masters too, they also license out their music, similar to David Bowie. So they too have fought the good fight for artists, they now have a deal with RHINO for re-issues and have their own label for New Cds they make and sell direct to fans and stores. And you cannot deny the talent of the band, sure members have changed somewhat, but the core is still their and Peter Ceteras replacement, Jason Scheff, has been with Chicago now for 18 years, longer than Peter was. So I do not understand their absence from the HALL OF FAME, they are on a long list of ARTISTS who have not been inducted while others have been and do not deserve to be. "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |
