Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Ballet For A girl In Buchannon” by Chicago
In 1970, Chicago Transit Authority shortened their name to Chicago and released their second album, which like the first one was a double album. The better part of side two featured this suite comprising the songs “Make Me Smile,” “So Much To Say, So Much To Give,” “Anxiety’s Moment,” “West Virginia Fantasies,” “Colour My World,” “To Be Free” and “Now More Than Ever.” The musicianship was high, the song craft inventive and the melding of horns to rock was never heard better…and, of course, their secret weapon Terry Kath on guitar was in full effect throughout.
