First band's album without their founder-guitarist and rock voice Terry Kath. Possibly, for the first time their sound is openly changed from brass-rock to brass-pop.

But looking from today, still not everything is so bad there on this album. Even if songs are softer, more oriented than before, there still are presented all rock guitar, jazzy drumming and even funky beat. Songs are melodic, have nice vocals and still not so simple arrangements.

Far from real rock music, this album still has it's own charm and interesting sounding. Comparing with Chicago's albums from late 80-s - early 90-s, this work is not bad at all! For sure not best entrance for newcomers and far from band's best early albums, I still think that this album is average listenable their album. Even if there are even Bee Gees participated as guests on one track.
