Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[perzon57]

YUM!

How can this not be one of your favourites?

The Quad mix is spectacular..!! :worthy

The mix is very good,but I feel the songs on this one is little "lighter" in a way,but it may grow on me.The only albums I've heard at all
before is CTA DTS disc and II and V on DVD A.I was not into this music then.

This is promising! I am 4 songs in and I really like it Seems like I prefer the double albums so far.:music

GORGEOUS looking onscreen menu... you've got me DROOLING again..!!

Ah, there's nothing wrong with liking a long one.. I personally favour Superkings over regular smokes.. ahhh.. I like to savour a nice long ciggy and say "*&$£ you all world!" for five minutes (I know its a horrible habit and it never did anybody any good.. but its my only vice now, well that and the odd vodka or ten.. Ahem... )

It looks really classy, and all those discs for just about the price of one APP Tales of Mystery & Imagination 5.1 !! Glad I ordered the Chicago. :banana:

More Chicago Quadio.Not one of my favourite albums,but really good anyway.:music

I'm listening to this right now as well and while some of the songwriting isn't quite as strong, it's beautifully recorded. ...and the hits are really, really good.

its a bit darker album than most of the rest of their catalog and was pretty much the last of Lamm being in hyper-political mode. This was the first Chicago album I owned as a kid, though, so I've got a big soft-spot for this one. I'm a probably a bit biased as a result, but I think it's pretty solid throughout.

V, VI and VII are my favorites. I know everyone loves the first three double albums, and there's much on those to love, but each have about one side or so of material that I thought was just 'meh' back in the day and hasn't aged well either. VIII, X and XI (which, dang, is SOOOOO unfortunate that it can't be included in this set!) all have their moments but are spotty with some filler tracks.

Taking a break from the magnificence of Starless to listen to this blu-ray. Crimson is in my top five, but sometimes I need something with a little more blues influence to cleanse the palate.

I'm currently listening to the Quad conversion of the Chicago's Greatest Hits QS lp (ta Adam!). I don't have the Blu-Ray box set yet so I'm listening to this so that I can enjoy the new set even more when I do receive it.

Well, after all the slamming Rhino took after they went quiet following the Aretha release, they came back bigger than I could've imagined with this set. This thing is really, really nice. I sat here for about an hour today after work when I got it, just looking over all the packaging album by album, and still I'm a little in disbelief...

 

[leahypc]

... now I just have to find an opportunity tonight to put some volume to it...
