Su querido amigo YIRO SEVENTH antes PODEROSO YIRO tendrá el honor de hacer el primer comentario de este sensacional disco. Ok de acuerdo, CHICAGO tuvo unos excelentes comienzos con el malogrado Terry Katz(grandisimo) y el histórico vocalista Peter Cetera, sin embargo yo considero que la etapa con Jason Scheff nos entrega unos discos fabulosos, como el caso de este Chicago 21, sin duda uno de los mejores discos de esta legendaria banda de AOR Westocoast y para mi el mejor disco, por encima...

de aquellos discos de la banda considerados los mejores. Aqui tenemos un AOR Westcoast de refinada calidad, temas llenos de gancho, frescura y calidad atemporales: "Explain It To My Heart" es un baladón marca de la casa, con Jason Scheff cantando con una técnica y sentimiento fuera de serie; "If It Were You" super ritmica y westcoast; uuuf la preciosa "You Come To My Senses" una balada romantica ideal; la pegadiza "Somebody, Somewhere"; la mejor del disco para mi es "What Does It Take", una ...

mega balada con unas teclas que saben a pura gloria, la dulce voz de Scheff marcando el compás y un coro intenso, de verdad un tema envidiable... esos son para mi los temas mas destacados en un disco que está entre los mejores del AOR Westcoast!!!.... Su amigo YIRO se los recomienda de todo corazón, claro que si... AOR FOREVER!!!

Hey Yiro toda la razón y tu puntaje pues el correcto(album criticado, puntaje puesto como debe ser). Discazo y todo un clásico pero el 19 es un peldaño mejor que éste en mi opinión. Ningún Filler, producción de lujo y la voz de Jason Scheff(Champlin tambien) pues estupenda sin nada que envidiar al gran Cetera. "Explain It To My Heart" y "Somebody, Somewhere" mis favoritas. Súper Recomendado. 9/10

Hola Juan Carlos, gracias por tu comentario. Te felicito por tu gran gusto, enhorabuena!! y bueno, gustos personales jeje, pero a mi este CHICAGO 21, me parece mejor, aunque respeto tu apreciación ya que el 19 es excelente también... Saludos amigo

Ya esta todo dicho en los comentarios que me preceden. Gran disco, lamentable que no sonora en su epoca tanto como los anteriores. Para aquellos que les gusto los ultimos disco de David Pack, entren a esta pagina georgegrunwald.com , cantante polaco y encontraran a gente de chicago, toto y santana colaborando en su obra.

One of my favourite Chicago records. As always there are way too many ballads, but Explain it to my Heart is a cracker. My two favourites though are What Does It Take and the utterly Toto-esque If It Were You.

Great album,full with beautiful melodies and feelings everywhere,What does it take, somebody somewhere,explain it to my heart are masterpieces,9/10.

Another great record by Chicago, this is their last work before the big change in the music industry. Este es el último trabajo de Chicago con el sonido y fórmula que les dio su segundo aire y éxito en la década de los 80´s. Grandes temas como el inicial "Explain to my Heart", o esa estupenda balada "You come to my Senses" y Champlin cantando a su gusto en "Somebody Somewhere". Un gran trabajo de una de las mejores agrupaciones americanas. AOR de primera clase.
