Does anyone know what time it is?

Ask the horn-driven pop/rock band Chicago. They’ll tell you: Time stopped in 1982. Or that’s how it seems if you look at their tour set lists.

Chicago, almost six decades into a Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame career and with three original members still performing, has released 26 studio albums and 38 overall – but in concert rarely play ANY material after “Chicago VIII,” which came out in the early ’80s.

Does this mean none of the tunes on Chicago albums IX-XXXVIII are any good? Of course not! I think.

It just means that A) Chicago has so many great songs clustered in the early years that B) those are the ones that people want to hear because C) the delivery format of popular music has changed so much that none of their stuff in the last 40 years gets any airplay whether it’s good or not.

So when you see Chicago Thursday in the Mohegan Sun Arena, do NOT expect to hear “Plaid” from ”Chicago XXXII.”
