Chicago - The Definitive Guitar Collection ReviewThe song selection wouldn't exactly be my choice for a "definitive guitar collection" of Chicago songs, but they're certainly not bad. They are, in this order:
1. Alive Again (from Hot Streets)
2. Along Comes a Woman (from Chicago 17)
3. Byblos (from Chicago VII)
4. Dialogue (Part II from Chicago V) --and yes, it's JUST part II.
5. Flight 602 (from Chicago III)
6. Gone Long Gone (from Hot Streets)
7. I'm a Man (from Chicago Transit Authority)
8. If You Leave Me Now (from Chicago X)
9. In the Country (from Chicago II)
10. Just You 'N' Me (from Chicago VI)
11. Poem 58 (from Chicago Transit Authority)
12. Scrapbook (from Chicago X)
13. South California Purples (from Chicago Transit Authority)
14. Stay the Night (from Chicago 17)
15. 25 or 6 to 4 (from Chicago II)
Obviously there's heavy reliance on Terry Kath's material, as there should be. That said, many of the choices confound me. Let me state up front that no Chicago fan is dying to get authentic tab to any song from an album post Chicago XI. And CERTAINLY not anything post Donnie Dacus--there's some solos out there, but no GUITAR songs. So there's four song selections wasted there. Next, . . . "Just You 'N' Me"? "Flight 602"? "If You Leave Me Now"? These were included in favor over songs like "Introduction," "A Hit By Varese," "Make Me Smile," "Takin' It On Uptown," "I Don't Want Your Money"? And dare I suggest . . . "Liberation"!? It doesn't make any sense to me. Sure, "A Hit By Varese" may not have ever been a single, but neither was "Flight 602" and it blows that one out of the water. None of this is to mention that it drives me nuts when "Dialogue (Part I)" gets left out of things. Those two songs are one--heck, the radio edit even meshed them together. So why include just Part II? I really don't want to have to rely on internet tabs for that--no one gets the voicings right.
I wouldn't have much ground here if the publishers had not decided to sub-title the book "The Definitive Guitar Collection." But they did, and several of there picks are hardly "definitive" Chicago guitar songs. So . . . there we are. This is by no means a bad book, but it could have been much better. I'm still happy I have it and look forward to working on "25 or 6 to 4" very soon.Chicago - The Definitive Guitar Collection Overview
