Four decades after its 1967 founding, the venerable pop/rock institution known as Chicago issued this well-selected two-disc anthology. Although the collection draws on the Illinois-based ensemble's early era as the Chicago Transit Authority (see the bright "Questions 67 and 68") and reaches into the 21st century (the uplifting anthem "Feel" from CHICAGO XXX), it primarily focuses on the group's '70s heyday by presenting classics such as the horn-laden "Saturday in the Park" and the plaintive ballad "If You Leave Now," both featuring singer Peter Cetera, who departed in the mid-'80s for a solo career. While BEST OF CHICAGO shares many tracks with '02's similarly titled VERY BEST OF CHICAGO, this overview features more breadth (by extending to '06), if not more depth, making it a solid rival to the earlier compilation.
