They would jam for so long and be experimental.
They opted to be a more radio-friendly band than to be this more cult band.
Their producer Jim Guercio, he steered the ship for the first 11 albums.
He was the lead singer, but they always had three singers.
ThatChicago 17album was humongous, and Peter said, Im leaving.
But I think everybody puts on them that theyre this sappy, ballady adult-contemporary band.
Theyre still just rock and roll with horns.
Rod Stewart wasnt the same.
The Stones sold out.
The Who sold out.
Youre telling me Athena is the same as I Cant Explain?
Its unfair to say they sold out and became this awful radio ballad band.
Whether you like them or not, those songs are still great pop radio songs.
Everybodys wondering if Cetera is going to show.
It would be a dream if Cetera would join them for this reunion.
I dont even want to dismiss the other guys who should be there.
It would be great if it was a huge family reunion.
