Reviews Customer Reviews for Chicago IX Greatest Hits Good CD Rating: Lots of great songs on this CD, but I'd recommend a more recent "greatest hits" release from Chicago if you don't already have this one.
Customer Reviews for Chicago IX Greatest Hits Cd 9 IS FINE. NO QUESTIONS ASKED Rating: In Chicago IX: Greatest Hits, the 11 tracks are assembled and arranged perfectly. Almost all of the landmark radio tunes from 1969 to 1975 are present. You have the early hits Make Me Smile, 25 or 6 to 4, as well as the 1970s Adult Contemporary standard, Saturday in the Park. In this package are the early contributions of Peter Cetera, Robert Lamm, and the late, great Terry Kath, all of whom had distinct vocals and personalities.
I will give Chicago IX: Greatest Hits 5 stars, for like The Eagles' Greatest Hits, all songs are a great joy to listen to. If you are able to recall where you were in the 1970s, then listening to the music will cause you to relive certain, fond moments. Knowing that there have been essential collections and anniversary boxed sets of Chicago released since, I would suggest that if Chicago IX is re-released that it should be in distinct fashion as a deluxe set with either a 5.1-mix disc included, as was the case with The Beatles' Love, or a disc containing essential live performances by Chicago, as MCA Records has intermittently done with its artists.
All in all, I will sum it up for Chicago IX, as I did earlier for the soundtrack from the movie, Invincible. If you love the 1970s but hate the disco from that period, this is an ideal collection for you.
Editorial Reviews for Chicago IX Greatest Hits Audio Cd Album Description Chicago IX: Greatest Hits '69 - '74 was the band's first greatest hits collection. Originally released 30 years ago in November of 1975, it spent five weeks atop the Billboard album chart and has been certified four times platinum! Still to date, it is the biggest selling album of their career. Chicago IX features signature favorites the band still performs on tour today, such as "25 or 6 to 4", "Beginnings," "Saturday in the Park," "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is," and "Call On Me." It was the first Chicago album to feature pictures of the band on the cover, incorporated into their trademark logo. Chicago IX: Greatest Hits '69-74 completes Rhino's reissues of the band's signature early recordings.
