The Very Best of Chicago: Only the Beginning

Chicago commemorated 35 years of playing together with the career-spanning 2-CD anthology ONLY THE BEGINNING. Chicago’s early hits included 25 Or 6 To 4, Saturday In The Park, Just You ‘N’ Me, and Baby, What A Big Surprise. These songs helped to solidify their early reputation.

Their chart assault in the ’80s continued with ballads like Hard To Say I’m Sorry/Look Away, Hard Habit To Break, and the quintessential love song You’re The Inspiration. Wrapping up this 39-song set is Sing, Sing, Sing, a collaboration with The Gipsy Kings.
