"Made in ISR in 1999, Serial# PLATCD-559, Playing Time 47:36This review will probably look familiar. That's because it takes more than just shuffling tracks around to confuse me about this re-re-re-release...This is another version of CHICAGO's "Toronto Rock & Roll Revival 1969" CD. I'm constantly amazed as to how many times this thing is on the marketplace.As usual, "Beginnings" is in fact "Introduction". The recording quality is below average, but the performances are adequate, considering how "young" the band was at this stage, with only 1 album under their belt.I've lost count of the various editions of this disc. If you own ANY of their live albums besides "At Carnegie Hall", "Live In Japan" and "Chicago 26", remember that you already have this, in some form or another...This is probably the 1 version that's worth getting: 1) It's made in ISRAEL, so you can impress your friends on how exotic your CD collection is; 2) it's a picture disc; 3) most importantly, it's probably the cheapest (price-wise) version available that has these 7 tracks!"
