Outstanding Coverage
12. November 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
I've been a big fan of Chicago since 1972, and whenever they come to New England, I make a special effort to catch them. I think that the author, Ben Joseph, has done a remarkable job in writing a mature objective history of the band. I'm sure in writing about a notorious band like this, the author could have gone the route of so many tabloid journalists, and written about the drug and alcohol problems, the marital problems, the dirt, that modern press loves to throw in our faces. Instead, Ben Joseph only highlighted the positive aspects of the band, and there were many great things that he drew the reader into.
I'm familiar with the newsgroups and the website, and the liner notes, and I still found lots of new insights into this amazing part of American musical history. I really have never written anything other than personal letters and emails to friends, but when I read the comments from two individuals from the UK, I was shocked at the misrepresentation of this great book, and felt it was my duty to the band, and perhaps to anyone who reads these comments on Amazon's website, to clarify a few things. The book is well written, superbly edited, and contains great photos that have never been published. The company that published it, Quarry Music Press, has been one of the best music only book publishers in the world for a long time, and this is a welcome addition to their catalog.

Chicago:A book written from album covers
4. August 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
Being a huge Chicago fan, the first record(yes it was vinyl) I purchased was CTA, I was disappointed by Ben Josephs' book. Hardly anything new was learned from the book, that could not have been discovered from reading the album covers. As the members of the band are roughly my age, I want to know how they handled success, who did they marry, how did they invest their millions, what are their hobbies, how many children do they have... I want to know more than a list of albums and their ranking on Billboard. The book could have been so much more if it would have let us meet the individuals who are Chicago. I met Terry's widow on Behind The Music, but Ben's book didn't give me any new information about who these people are. The marketing gimick to create a band image worked well to make the producers of Chicago rich, but now is the time to show us the people of Chicago. Ben, give it another shot---tell us things we don't know...

A must have for the true Chicago fan!!
27. September 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Over the past 25 years I have seen Chicago in Concert over 50 times. I simply love their music and I am truly amazed at the fact that they have been around for over 35 years.
I bought this book because I thought it was going to be a history lesson on the band and it is but it is also so much more.
Covering the band from the beginning with members Terry Kath and Robert Lamm to the days of Peter Cetera to the lastet members Tris Imboden adn Keith Howland.
The book covers every album including Chicago 26 "live in Concert". I am most impressed and hope as the band continues another edition will come out.
If you love Chicago Like I do, then you have to get this book it is as sweet as the music of the band.
