'Listen children all is not lost, all is not lost. Oh no, no...'

CNN's going to run the Chicago documentary on January 1st. I keep seeing the ads for it, "CHICAGO’S AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY NOW MORE THAN EVER: THE HISTORY OF CHICAGO PREMIERES ON CNN ON JANUARY 1."

As noted at Wikipedia:
Second only to The Beach Boys in Billboard singles and albums chart success among American bands, Chicago is one of the longest-running and most successful rock groups, and one of the world's best-selling groups of all time, having sold more than 100 million records.

According to Billboard, Chicago was the leading US singles charting group during the 1970s. They have sold over 40 million units in the US, with 23 gold, 18 platinum, and 8 multi-platinum albums. Over the course of their career they have had five number-one albums and 21 top-ten singles. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 8, 2016 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York...
"Saturday in the Park" is one of my favorite all-time songs. I don't listen to it enough, come to think of it.
