105.7 KOKZ is your home for classic American Top 40 shows every weekend! This Sunday morning from 8 to noon, Casey Kasem features the top songs from August 11th, 1984 and one of the songs you’ll hear on the show is today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Chicago it’s “Hard Habit to Break”.

One of the most successful American bands of all-time, Chicago has released 18 platinum and 8 multi-platinum albums, the biggest of them all being Chicago 17. Debuting in July of 1984 the album sold over 6 million copies and delivered the hits “Stay the Night”, “You’re the Inspiration”, and “Along Comes a Woman”. “Hard Habit to Break” the song went all the way to #3 on the charts.

I remember seeing the Chicago 17 tour at Hilton Coliseum in Ames in November of ’84. Check out Peter Cetera and Chicago with “Hard Habit to Break” it’s today’s Forgotten 45.
