Cool Chicago Album

If you happen to be into groovy jazzy pop songs like I am, especially those with an early 1970’s vibe with lots of sweet rhodes keyboards, I’ve recently found an unlikely winner. It’s from the band Chicago and it’s their Chicago 7 album. It’s nothing like the rock pop ballad stuff that they became known for later in their career. On this album their jazz and rock backgrounds blend perfectly making for some great songs and songwriting. “Happy Man” is my favorite song along with “Wishing You Were Here,” which have both been stuck in my head for close to a week now. I strangely had the album sitting around my collection since I was a kid in 70’s but never really listened to it until just recently; it’s some weird luck that I’ve managed to keep it all this time. I kind of laugh know realizing I’ve had this great record sitting in my collection all this time and never knew how great it was.
