A Brief History of Record-Breaking Sales
Now, you might be thinking, "Who cares how many albums Chicago sold? I'm more interested in what's on my Netflix queue." Well, buckle up, because this is about to get interesting.
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
Chicago, the band, is basically the grandpa of rock and roll who keeps getting hotter with age. They've been around since the late 60s, and they've managed to stay relevant while most of us were still figuring out how to tie our shoes. Their sound is a unique blend of rock, jazz, and pop, which is like putting peanut butter, jelly, and avocado toast together – you wouldn't think it would work, but it totally does.
QuickTip: Use posts like this as quick references.
How Many Albums Have They Actually Sold?
The short answer is: a lot. Like, a really lot. We're talking about over 100 million albums sold. That's more albums than there are grains of sand on a not-so-sandy beach. It's like if every person in Australia bought one of their albums. Twice.
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.

To put this into perspective, that's enough albums to build a skyscraper made entirely of vinyl records. Or maybe a small country. Who knows, I'm not an engineer.
Tip: The details are worth a second look.
Chicago: The Gift That Keeps on Giving
It's not just about the numbers, though. Chicago has produced some absolute bangers. Songs like "Saturday in the Park" and "25 or 6 to 4" are like old friends who never disappoint. They're the kind of songs that make you want to grab a beer, put on some sunglasses, and pretend you're cruising down the coast in a convertible. Even if you're stuck in traffic.
So, next time you're feeling down, put on some Chicago. It might not solve all your problems, but it'll definitely make you feel better. And hey, maybe you'll discover a new appreciation for the band that's sold more albums than you can count.
