Chicago: annunciato il box set “VI Decades Live”

17 Febbraio 2018 0 Commenti Massimiliano MaxAor Carli

Gli storici pop rockers americani Chicago sono stati per decenni una delle band più impegnate di sempre nell’attività live, e ora invitano i propri fans a rivivere parte di quella storia con il loro prossimo box set dal titolo “VI Decades Live (This Is What We Do)”, programmato sul mercato per il 6 Aprile.

Il cofanetto offre una panoramica della storia dei Tour del gruppo ed è composto da quattro CD e un DVD, che coprono le esibizioni dal 1969 al 2014.

I primi due dischi coprono l’intero show all’Isle Of Wight Festival del 1970, mentre uno spettacolo del 1977 trasmesso originariamente dalla lunga serie tedesca Rockpalast riempie il DVD.

Il resto del set offre scorci dei Chicago attraverso diverse epoche della veterana band, dai multi-platinati Seventies fino al loro grande ritorno negli anni Ottanta ed oltre.

Oltre alle hit più conosciute, l’elenco dei brani di “VI Decades Live” lascia spazio ad una serie di pezzi meno noti del catalogo della formazione, inclusi brani quali “Forever” (da “Chicago 18” del 1986), “The Pull” (da “Stone Of Sisyphus”) e “In The Mood” (da “Night & Day: Big Band” del 1995).
