Chicago : Chicago IX - (Chicago's Greatest Hits) (Expanded Edition) (2025 Edition)


TELL ME 

YOU WILL STAY

MAKE ME SMILE



 Chicago IX:

 Chicago's Greatest Hits

 is the first

 greatest hits album

and ninth album overall, 

by the American band

 Chicago 

and was

 released in 1975 

by Columbia Records 

Including all of 

Chicago's 

biggest hits to date, 

this set stretches

 from their 

1969 debut, 

Chicago Transit Authority 

referred to as

 Chicago I 

in the 

original LP liner notes

 to 1974's 

Chicago VII.

 Chicago VIII 

and its hits, 

having only come out 

just months earlier, 

were considered

 too recent to anthologize, 

while Chicago III'

material was overlooked

 for inclusion

 due to its lack of 

top-selling singles.

Chicago IX 

proved to be an

 enormous success

 upon its release.

 It reached No. 1 

in the US

 the fifth and final 

consecutive album

 to do so

and remained 

on the 

Billboard 200

 for a total of 

72 weeks.

 It has since been

 certified 

quintuple platinum

 by the RIAA, 

signifying sales of over

 five million copies.

Chicago IX 

was reissued by 

Rhino Records,

 Chicago's current distributor. 

The album

 did not chart

 in the UK.
