Notes on Chicago Transit Authority

     Shamelessly borrowing the general format of Alan W. Polock's wonderful, detailed analysis of every Beatles song, I present a similar project for the early albums of Chicago, starting with, of course, their magnificent debut album.
     Is anyone reading my analyses and enjoying them? I'd love to know! Head to the Contact page and say hello! And feel free to clue me in to anything important that I missed. If I think it's worth adding, I will, with your permission, add it in and give you credit.

The album, analyzed first track by track, then discussed as a whole:
