Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive, joyful brass fanfare that opens Saturday in the Park, instantly shifting the mood to a sun-drenched afternoon.
The intricate, conversational vocal interplay between Terry Kath and Robert Lamm during the political debate of Dialogue.
The way the heavy, driving bassline of While the City Sleeps creates a tense, nocturnal groove beneath the smooth horn stabs.
