Chicago announced that they will released a 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of the rock band’s 1971 best-selling live album, Chicago at Carnegie Hall.
The quadruple LP reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200, was certified platinum and is still the band’s best-selling live album.
The deluxe edition of Chicago at Carnegie Hall comes in a 16-CD boxed set featuring all eight shows performed at the celebrated venue 50 years ago.
Chicago founding member and trumpeter Lee Loughnane and engineer Tim Jessup spent nearly a year meticulously going through more than 40 concert tapes at Loughnane’s new studio in Arizona to remaster each concert.
The collection comes with a 28-page booklet illustrated with photos from the concerts, plus new liner notes with contributions by Loughnane, archivist Jeff Magid, writer/producer David Wild and comedy icon/Chicago fanatic Jimmy Pardo.
Chicago at Carnegie Hall Complete will officially release on July 16. Priced at $180, the box set is available for preorder at Rhino.com.
