Let me guess, Chicago. Please sent me my money. Only the Tower of Power has a better horn section. Better may be too strong a word. How about comparable? After further consideration, I gonna go with, slightly better. Ahhh, both were great.

I admit it - I'm A Huey Lewis and the News fan.

Yes, and the list goes on. I get goose bumps thinking about some of their collaborations.
However, Chicago has some superstar collaborations under it's belt also.

whatza jacket liner?? oh yeah you wear one skiing .......lol
in the 70's i remember t.o.p. playin' lotsa football halftimes ..... i'm still diggin' on james brown ......
speaking of horn sections what is a horn section exactly ?? i mean brasses are trumpets , 'n 'bones , and tubas and cornets and french horns, etc.......however saxes and clarinets and flutes are woodwinds and generally have reeds except for the flutes ..... so are the saxes , etc part of the horn section ??
if you wanna hear an amazing legendary sax section the Buddy Rich big band , especially at the height of their
powers in the mid '60s .........Channel 1 Suite or West Side Story medley .... really incredible .... what i call goose bumps music .......
