One of my favorite guitar solos. This song just sounds so epic, no idea what "25 or 6 to 4" means, but I've loved this song ever since I can remember. I've grown to hate Peter Cetera with a passion, but I have to give credit where credit is due, this song is great.

"25 or 6 to 4" is about writing a song late at night, around 3:34 or 3:35 in the morning.

Man 80's Chicago couple skate schmaltz really turned me off to the band. When I discovered transit authority and chicago 2-8 I got even angrier. Early Chicago is now one of my favorite bands. According to Spotify in 2014 I listen to Chicago 2 more than any other album. Chicago 2 is my favorite.

When it gets to Fancy Colors that's about my favorite moment.

my pick is Fancy Colors.

"Saturday in the Park" ... it's actually all I know... but it gives me chills.

Wow, I just listened to "25 or 6 to 4" and I can't believe how much it sounds like Led Zeppelin's version of "Baby I'm Gonna Leave You"... Looks like they came out around the same time...
