With a distinctive horn section and powerful vocals, the band's sound is instantly recognizable. Their energetic live performances continue to captivate fans around the globe. Chicago's enduring success and musical legacy have solidified their place as one of the greatest bands in history.

Formed in 1967 in Chicago, Illinois, the band quickly gained popularity with their debut album "The Chicago Transit Authority." Throughout the years, they have released a string of hit singles including "Saturday in the Park," "If You Leave Me Now," and "Hard to Say I'm Sorry." Their innovative fusion of genres set them apart from other bands of their time and helped shape the sound of popular music.

In addition to their commercial success, Chicago has received critical acclaim for their contributions to music. They have been honored with multiple Grammy Awards and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016.

Rhino Records, also known as Rhino, is a renowned music label that was established in 1973 by Richard Foos. Starting as a record store in Westwood California, Rhino quickly gained recognition with its first successful release "Go To Rhino Records" by Wild Man Fischer in 1975. The label's early logo featured "Rocky the Rhino" and focused on novelty, surf, local new wave bands, and reissues of out-of-print records from other labels.

Under the guidance of Bill Inglot for production, Ken Perry for mastering, and A&R team Gary Stewart and James Austin, Rhino expanded its catalog to include a wide range of reissues by the mid-1980s. The label underwent a logo redesign during this time period to simply "Rhino". In 1984, Rhino released its first CD and became known for manufacturing high-quality CDs made by Sanyo (1984-85) and various manufacturers from Japan or Switzerland thereafter.

In 1985, Rhino entered into a distribution deal with Capitol Records which lasted until 1992. This partnership allowed access to Capitol's back catalog and led to the release of reissues of old Capitol albums. Additionally, EMI and Rhino acquired the Roulette family of labels in 1989. As their deal with Capitol came to an end in 1992, Time-Warner offered an opportunity for growth. Half of the label was sold to Time-Warner
