Chicago's 38th album. Said Chicago founding band member Robert Lamm:

“I hope that, 55 years from now, listeners will actually feel something about our music and our lyrics. I mean, we’re all human. We all go through some variation of the same pain and joy at some point in our lives, and there’s a commonality to that. I hope listeners in the future will actually get all those feelings while listening to our music.”

Added fellow founding Chicago member Lee Loughnane:

“One of the big reasons this album works so well is that when you put it on and play it, you hear something you’re not quite expecting to hear, and it immediately pulls you in musically and emotionally.”

And founding member James Pankow:

“The very nature of these new tracks makes them very performable, and I’m looking forward to playing some fresh material onstage.”

Chicago features the original three band members (Lamm on keyboards and vocals, Loughnane on trumpet and vocals and Pankow on trombone), backed by Ray Herrmann on sax and flute, Wally Reyes, Jr. on drums, Neil Donell on vocals, Ramon “Ray” Yslas on percussion, Tony Obrohta on guitar, Loren Gold on keyboards and vocals, and Eric Baines on bass and vocals.
