Some of Chicago's finest songs were not hits and they are on this album. This album displays the true talent, the non-commercial side of this enduring group. <br /> Rating: 5 / 5 This album still sounds as great as it did in the mid seventies.

The formula was not completely in place and there are some break out numbers here as a result. While not their best effort, nonetheless, it has held its own through the years.

After putting<br>out the very sucessful CHICAGO V,with such hits as "Saturday<br>in the Park,Dialogue PT 1& 2,While the city sleeps",the band now does a completly different change than their previous V "jazz<br>like album". For VI, "feeling stronger every day" is their<br>big hit, I really enjoy the rest of the album. The 1st cut<br>puts you right into the mood of the album. I like<br>"hollywood". Its a nice album,listen to all the songs.<br>Remember for all you CHICAGO fans,this is the next to last<br>album you will hear Terry Kath,playing guitar. After CHICAGO VII,<br>Kath is accidently killed,cleaning his gun at a party..<br>Buy it. I really think once you go past Chicago VIII,they<br>are going somewhat commericial. Great for the collection!!! Rating: 5 / 5 This was a real” change” in CHICAGO’s production. After putting

Kath is accidently killed,cleaning his gun at a party..
Buy it. I really think once you go past Chicago VIII,they

"Just You And Me" is some of their best singing and instrumental playing, for example. <br /> <br />"Darling Dear" is strong albeit a little compromised.
