SUPERB TRIPLE DISC SET OF LIVE BROADCAST RECORDINGS FROM THE 1970s Formed in 1967 as Chicago Transit Authority, Chicago shorted their name in 1969, and throughout the 1970s and 80s were a regular fixture on both single and album charts universally. One of the world's best-selling groups of all time, having sold more than 100 million records, in 1971, Chicago was the first rock act to sell out Carnegie Hall for a week. To date, Chicago has sold over 40 million units in the U.S., with 23 gold, 18 platinum, and eight multi-platinum albums. They have had five consecutive number-one LPs on the Billboard 200 and 20 top-ten singles on the Billboard Hot 100. In 1974 the group had seven albums, its entire catalogue at the time, on the US albums list simultaneously. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, and in 2017, Peter Cetera, Robert Lamm, and James Pankow were elected to the Songwriters Hall of Fame for their songwriting efforts as members of the group. This triple CD set celebrates the longevity, success and huge talent of Chicago and features a selection of their finest live concerts from across the group s 1970s heyday, all of which were the subject of FM Radio broadcasts at the time. Disc One features the band s show performed at The Tanglewood Music Center in Lennox, MA in 1970, following which Disc Two includes their concert played at the Freedom Hall in Louisville, Kentucky in 1974. The set concludes on Disc Three with a show given at The Nassau Coliseum, in Uniondale, New York, on 20th May 1977, thought to be the final gig the band performed prior to the tragic death of Terry Kath in January 1978.
