Re: Early Chicago

Well, Mr. Wet Rag, who is sopping up a spilt half empty glass, that is the way the cd's were set up by the group. They are labeled as separate tracks and laid out that way.

Instead of bitching and moaning, why don't YOU edit the original tracks so that they play as single tracks.

Before you read my detailed explanation, please understand that it matters to me not one bit what is on the playlist. If these songs stay this way, I lose no sleep, and I'm not "bitching and moaning". I'm pointing out a fact.

Dale, surely as one versed in the music you should know what I mean. Here is what I am talking about:

Chicago Chicago III An Hour In The Shower: Dreamin' Home 0:49

You want to request that? Go for it! There are plenty of instances of songs spliced together. Would you like to hear the three parts of UK's In the Dead of Night separately? Didn't think so. Dreamin Home is 49 seconds, part 4 of a 5 part song.

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: A.M. Mourning 2:07

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: Anxiety's Moment 1:01

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: Fancy Colours 5:14

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: Make Me Smile 3:16

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: Now More Than Ever 1:28

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: P.M. Mourning 2:00

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: So Much to Say, So Much to Give 1:12

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: To Be Free 1:15

Chicago Chicago II Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon: West Virginia Fantasies 1:33

Look at the record and then look at this, enough said.

Chicago Chicago III Elegy: Canon 1:05

Chicago Chicago III Elegy: Once Upon A Time.... 2:35

Chicago Chicago III Elegy: Progress? 2:35

Chicago Chicago III Elegy: The Approaching Storm 6:28

Chicago Chicago III Man Vs. Man: The End 1:34

This is an instrumental, one of Chicago's best pieces. It has a recurring theme, when connected makes sense. I doubt you would request Progress? by itself.

Chicago Chicago II It Better End Soon: 1st Movement 2:33

Chicago Chicago II It Better End Soon: 2nd Movement 3:41

Chicago Chicago II It Better End Soon: 3rd Movement 3:18

Chicago Chicago II It Better End Soon: 4th Movement 0:58

Same as the previous. One song...

I'm not blaming anybody, hell, look at Sonus Umbra's "Digging for Seroes". 20 songs, alll connected, but only 4 are stand alone.

Some longer pieces are cut into sections (Garden of Dreams by Flower Kings for instance).

No, I can't edit. I was only responding to gr8, who said Chicago I-III was on the Moon. Again if they stay this way, ok with me.
