The thing that seems to be overlooked is that the music of " Chicago' was written to fit this show. It wasn't written to be sucked up by jazz groups and singers, nor was it written for mass popularity for posterity. No, it was written for this show alone and with that in mind it is perfectly conceived.<BR>
