Chicago is celebrating the anniversary of their double-platinum debut with Live at 55, a guest-packed new movie and album featuring Steve Vai and others. See a complete list of the tracks and guests below; you can also preview “Hard to Say I’m Sorry / Get Away.”
“This concert film is a unique approach to any of our previous live performances,” Chicago co-founder Lee Loughnane said in a news release. “We very rarely play with guest artists, much less seven of them. It was very interesting to work with each guest and experience their interpretations of our music.”
The special concert performance of Chicago Transit Authority took place in front of 10,000 fans over two nights last November at Ovation Hall at the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Other concert highlights include unplugged versions of several Chicago favorites.
