Well, my partner Rich Tong won't continue to host my blog if I don't periodically refresh it. Here's my annual entry (just kidding Rich).
Dateline Cleveland: I couldn't help but notice that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame once again got it wrong. Sure, VERY deserving: George Harrison but if you're going to add Jackson Browne?! Prince?! I have to wonder again, why not the band Chicago?
Worldwide album sales 120 million. In the US they've had 18 Gold albums, 13 platinum. 20 Top 10 singles and five Number One hits. Plus they are America's hardest working band, touring regularly from day one with a platinum album in every decade they have created music.
Luckily, I'm not alone. Richard Roeper of Ebert and Roeper fame also noticed and provided me with all of these quick facts in a great article in his Sun Times column today.

I'm with Roeper on this one and no doubt the millions of Chicago fans, this IS Question 67 & 68....& 69,70,71....
