Chicago: Greatest Hits
Product Description:

Mastered from the Original Master Tapes! Brand New Factory Sealed
Cat No RHI73229 Ships Double Boxed For your Record's Safety and Your Peace of Mind Comes with Free LP Jacket Cover to Protect your LP

In 1967, Chicago musicians Walter Parazaider, Terry Kath, Danny Seraphine, Lee Loughnane, James Pankow, Robert Lamm, and Peter Cetera formed a group with one dream, to integrate all the musical diversity from their beloved city and weave a new sound, a rock 'n' roll band with horns. 
Their dream turned into record sales topping the 100,000,000 mark, including 21 Top 10 singles, 5 consecutive Number One albums, 11 Number One singles and 5 Gold singles. An incredible 25 of their 34 albums have been certified platinum, and the band has a total of 47 gold and platinum awards.   
Originally issued in 1975, Chicago IX: Chicago's Greatest Hits is the band's first best of album and ninth album overall, collecting material ranging from their 1969 debut The Chicago Transit Authority through to 1974's Chicago VII. Topping the Billboard album charts for five solid weeks, the four times platinum blockbuster release gathers such signature Chicago classics as "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?," "Saturday in the Park," and "Beginnings."

WE CARE ABOUT WHAT WE SHIP!

ALWAYS wet clean all LPs before their first use to remove record sleeve dust and other particles from manufacturing. This includes ALL new LPS and it doesn't matter who makes them, or who sells them.  If you purchased a used LP somewhere
(we only sell new) double clean it. This is standard procedure you should be following.  We recommend Lasermedia VNC-4
Vinyl Record Cleaner because it does the job well without harmful solvents like alcohol or worse which can damage the plasticizers in
 the vinyl making it noisy and prone to wear..

REPLACE standard paper sleeves with poly lined sleeves to keep the record from scratching when inserting the LP into it. This is
particularly important with those nice-to-look-at hard sleeves they sometimes use. 

US RECORDING will, for free, unseal and remove the LP itself from the jacket to absolutely prevent seam splits in shipping
if you immediately ask us to after payment. This is guaranteed preventable damage if you simply ask us to do it. (This is the proper way to ship LPS anyway.)
If you do not ask us to do it, we cannot guarantee there will be no seam splits no matter how well the records are packed, and we will not consider any record
 jacket seam splits as "damage" for a return or compensation.

company artwork which depicts the item for sale, but is not an actual photo of the actual individual item you will be sent, and

Some LPS are factory shrink wrapped, and others are factory sealed in bags, especially many of the higher end versions and most imports. European pressings are mostly sealed in bags because that is THEIR standard of packaging.  The USA standard is to shrink wrap but it could go
either way. If the type of "manner of seal" is a concern to you, please contact us before purchase." - ©2014 US Recording Media, LLC
