I put "Make Me Smile" in my Top Ten of 1970. It's one of SO MANY great Chicago songs that were played by my older sister Judy in our house during that era. Love the words and of course the production!

I saw them live in Madison Square Garden in 1975, when they co-headlined with the Beach Boys. It was a bittersweet experience, for reasons I've written about. Chicago were the biggest thing in the world at that moment, and the Beach Boys were living legends, but in the process of disintegrating. Dennis Wilson was a mess (his substance abuse would kill him a few years later). Chicago held up their end of the bargain, though.
