These albums in the vein of Supernatural work. I mean, they get their jobs done, though the musicians who make them should be wary of them. Ask Chicago about what happens afterwards. Yes, they went through their Supernatural phase from Chicago 16 to the end of the 80's. Still, we shouldn't hold the platters from the period against them, they merely wished to be relevant again. Thus, their success with Chicago 16 caused them to rethink their sonic approach and they began to chase the success. However, I am not sure what else they could've done then, they were a group for the 60's and the 70's, the 80's had no use for them, unless they went crazily current. Of course, their peers had the same dilemmas, i.e. they gained their biggest sales with the discs few admire.

good ending: mario’s new voice actor will be someone who’s been fandubbing him for a long time and is REALLY good at it, like jesse pinnick

neutral ending: nintendo won’t hire a new voice actor for any of martinet’s roles and simply recycle/remaster existing lines until the heat death of the universe

bad ending: mario’s new voice actor will be chris pratt

Album Review: Chicago - Now More Than Ever: The History of Chicago

Featuring more than 50 songs and nearly four hours of music, Now More Than Ever: The History of Chicago is a good primer for music lovers unfamiliar with the rock band with horns’ output beyond its decidedly non-rock hits of the post-Terry Kath era.

Released as a companion to the band-produced movie of the same name, the lengthy compilation is a well-chosen mix of big hits like "Beginnings" and "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?” and deep tracks including the country-tinged and hornless “Flight 602;" the joyful, wordless harmonizing of “Happy ‘Cause I’m Going Home;" and the jazzy, 10-minute instrumental “Devil’s Sweet." Drawn from the 1960s and ‘70s, these songs and their peers dominate the collection and make a strong case for Chicago’s recent induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Only toward the end does the soundtrack start to peter out as the focus shifts from the band’s eclectic, sometimes uneven, output of the 1970s and early '80s to the schlocky hits of the Peter Cetera/David Foster/Bill Champlin era of “Hard Habit to Break” and “Hard to Say I’m Sorry.”

Much like the film with which it shares its name, Now More Than Ever ends abruptly with 1988’s “Look Away,” as horrible a tune as the band ever recorded.

A more representative retrospective would have included cuts from Chicago’s fine complement of live records and samplings from albums such as 2008’s Stone of Sisyphus (XXXII) and 2014’s Now (XXXVI). Despite these inexplicable oversights, Now More Than Ever is highly recommended for those disinclined to go searching through the group’s extensive (and often mind-blowing) back catalog.

Grade card: Chicago - Now More Than Ever: The History of Chicago - B+

Who could we see as the epitome of the 80's musical unreality? My guess would be Chicago – I discussed their pivot in the 80's before –, since they transformed themselves into a corporation rock.Yes, I would call them like this thanks to their tunes from then, which should be found on the teambuilding parties by the financial companies that celebrate their latest acquisitions. You could replace all the words in their song from the period with some stock market terms and no one would bat an eye. Still, a couple of hints of a collective of humans being behind all the surface on some compositions in the era remain, yet the saddest part might be that most of these were outsourced and overproduced, which could be seen as the modus operandi of the 80's Chicago.

When we played back the original basic tracks, I thought, “Boy, we need something going into that breakdown section.” I went home and I fooled around on my mini-Moog synth, and I had an Echoplex [a tape-echo machine] at the time — so the next morning, when Chris [Pinnick, guitarist] came in, I said “Can you play a G-Major chord going into the break section?” So we did that and we ran it into my Echoplex, and it sounded really cool, but it wasn’t cool enough. So I had him do it two more times, an Sound & Music https://www.billboard.com/music/rb-hip-hop/notorious-big-hypnotize-sample-randy-badazz-herb-alpert-rise-7709057/
