CHICAGO II: LIVE ON SOUNDSTAGE

Chicago went home to its namesake city last year to record a live version of the band’s multi-platinum second album, Chicago II, for the PBS Soundstage series. That energetic performance is now available as a single-CD and a CD/DVD set that includes video of the program and a 5.1 audio mix. It’s also available digitally and via streaming platforms.

Originally released in January 1970 as Chicago (and later dubbed Chicago II), the album was a major breakthrough for the band and features some of the group’s biggest hits, including the Top 10 singles “25 Or 6 To 4,” “Make Me Smile” and “Colour My World.”

A CHICAGO II: COLLECTOR’S EDITION will be released in August for $99.98. It comes with the Soundstage performance on CD and DVD, as well as the original Chicago II album remixed by acclaimed producer Steven Wilson on both CD and double-LP. Chicago are performing Chicago II in its entirety on tour this summer. Go to chicagotheband.com for more information.
