Chicago 17 Review

With sales of four million, Chicago 17 is the biggest-selling regular studio album the band made to date. That's what happens when you really go for the ballads: "Stay the Night," "Hard Habit to Break," "You're the Inspiration," and "Along Comes a Woman" all fit into that category; all featured Peter Cetera, and all made the Top 40. Not surprisingly, Cetera decamped soon after. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
