Got to go with Chicago. 3 excellent vocalists, horn section, many writers and styles.  And if you wait for it, Terry Kath could rip it up when he was given the chance.

They are both proggy, though probably not truly prog. It's okay. Plus, ELO are on this site and Chicago are pending, last I checked. I went with ELO. Both bands were great, but ELO had a lot more unorthodox ways to toy with their music (for example, the bizarre Fire on High).

It struck me the other day that these two have a similar approach to music, as both are pretty conventional rock bands spiced up by non-conventional instrumentation.  That, and both went downhill after their first two albums Tongue. 

So, who will it be?
