newbie Chicago question

[JCOUNIHAN]

I built up my entire Chicago collection (CTA through 19) on vinyl before these
wonderful CD things came along.

My question is, do you recommend just getting Group Portrait (is it easily
available?), or does it miss too much; should I try to get all albums on CD?

Also, is Chicago available through any music clubs? BMG doesn't seem to have
any. And if so, is this the way to go?

Any recommendations, suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

CDs. The group portrait is nice, but there is nothing like having the entire
collection. I would also recommend buying "Live In Japan". Depending where you
live, many record outlets have many of the CDs from Chicago Records. They are
all pretty cheap.

I'd go with the individual albums. So much is missed on the first six
albums alone.

Shine on!

Hi! I saw Chicago in the Columbia House ad recently but I don't know how much
Chicago they have. Online, CDUniverse.com and musicblvd.com have Chicago.
Hope this helps!
