CHICAGO - Live At Tanglewood 1970 - FRA On The Air Edition - LISTEN - VERY RARE

Nowadays, for the average rock lover the group Chicago is a synonym for tackiness and pop commercialism. However, it is worth remembering that in 1969-1973 the band played first-rate, progressive jazz rock and few groups of the time could equal them in musicianship or (admirable) arrangements. It is also worth noting that many of the little-known British progressive formations so adored by fans drew their inspiration precisely from Chicago (e.g. Aquila, Raw Material, Heaven, Galliard). The concert organised by Bill Graham at Tanglewood took place in June 1970 - at the time when the band was recording its third album. In any case, this 80-minute, perfect-sounding CD contains only tracks from the first two albums and one from the 'third'. This is top-shelf rock material! A must!
