Your comments about this record:

A few months ago I purchased the Chicago guitar fake book, featuring the guitar melodies of well over 100 Chicago songs. Time after time I found my favorite songs were written by Robert Lamm. So, in theory, I should enjoy Robert Lamm's solo work, right? Well--not exactly. Robert Lamm's other solo albums do not sound like Chicago, and I never got into them. However, "Subtelty & Passion" does sound like Chicago. Take "Another Sunday," which seems like a follow-up (intentional or not) to "Saturday In The Park." My favorite song on the album, "For You, Kate" resembles the soft rock of Chicago's late 70s albums. Not all songs on the album hark back thirty years--but for the fan of Chicago's albums between 1973 and 1978, Lamm's S&P will not disappoint. Although Lamm and I share similar political beliefs, I am perfectly OK that S&P lacks the songs of "Harry Truman" or "Policeman." S&P's focus is truly subtelty and passion. And, while most of the tracks are not going to be classics, the album's still a very good listen.


With having damn near everyone (and then some) from Chicago, this should have just been another Chicago piece. The only one not featured on here is the great Bill Champlin. However, again, this one also has a jazzy/pop and a rocky feel to it and all in all is a good album. Check it out.
