Chicago (band): Difference between revisions

* [[Album Filler]]: Averted with their early work. In fact, they had so much material their first three albums (and the seventh) were ''double albums''.

* [[The Artifact]]: In their early days, Chicago's horn section set them apart from many of their contemporaries, but as time went on the horns became less and less prominent. Where they'd originally been featured as lead instruments, they ended up in a supporting role providing embellishments (that Robert Lamm and Bill Champlin were mostly playing on keyboards anyway).

* [[The Band Minus the Face]]: Twice over, when Kath died, then when Peter Cetera left.

* [[Chronological Album Title]]: Pretty much all of them. The few that didn't include one are ''Chicago at Carnegie Hall'' (the 4th album), ''Hot Streets'' (the 12th), ''Night and Day Big Band'' (the 22nd), and all the compilation albums except for ''Chicago IX'' (though the compilations are counted in the album numbering).

* [[Greatest Hits Album]]: About a zillion of 'em.

* [[Idiosyncratic Cover Art]]: Nearly all the album covers feature the band's iconic logo in a different setting. The exception is ''Hot Streets'', which features a portrait of the band.

* [[Lighter and Softer]]: Their 80s body of work.

* [[Loudness War]]: The Rhino remasters.
