Album:

Deluxe digitally remastered edition including 12-page full color booklet including liner notes, enhanced artwork with unpublished photos and new interview. For most fans of strident and forceful AOR, Peter Cetera would not, under normal circumstances, be their first port of call. Having been a founder member and lead vocalist with horn rock band Chicago, his background was firmly in another musical world but this, his debut solo album, showcased a desire to break free of those chains and strike out in a new direction, a solo career that turned heads and eventually led to his departure from the mother ship. Times had been disappointing for Chicago, their 14 album run at Columbia records was abruptly terminated in 1981 when they were perceived as being irrelevant to the current market. Cetera himself had actually begun to record a solo album and was half way through the project when news came of not only Chicago's ill fortune, but also of the cancellation of his own project. Fortuitously Chicago were picked up by the Warner Brother's label who also exercised the option on his solo album, which was completed and released by their Full Moon subsidiary. Issued in 1981 and produced by himself and Jim Boyer (Billy Joel, Steve Winwood), the album was quite a revelation to those who expected to hear a mellow example of his work with Chicago. The record, instead, was a punchy example of contemporary AOR, fuelled by crunchy guitar (featuring Steve Lukather and Chris Pinnick) and designed to fit in seamlessly with the work of say, Journey and Toto. Tracks such as 'I Can Feel It' and 'Livin' In The Limelight' are classics of the genre.Peter Cetera, released in September 1981, is the self-titled first solo release by then-Chicago bassist and lead vocalist, Peter Cetera.A much more rock-oriented album than Chicago had been producing at the time, Cetera released the album in September 1981 while still a member of the band. Released on Full Moon Records, a subsidiary of Warner Brothers (reissued in 2004 on Wounded Bird Records), the album was not commercially successful, peaking at number 143 on the Billboard 200 chart in March 1982, after making its first appearance on the Billboard 200 chart on January 23, 1982 at number 192.However, it is notable because Cetera is the sole writer of all songs on the album save one—"I Can Feel It," which Cetera co-wrote with Ricky Fataar and Carl Wilson.Wilson, a member of the Beach Boys and a friend of Cetera's,also played guitar on the song. The single "Livin' In The Limelight," the only hit from the album, was released on November 18, 1981,and charted at number six in the Billboard Mainstream Rock.One year after Peter Cetera was released, Cetera and Chicago launched a major comeback with the number one single, "Hard to Say I'm Sorry", and album, Chicago 16. After 1984's Chicago 17 was also a massive hit, Cetera left the band to concentrate fully on his solo career. The song, "On the Line", which appears on this album, was on the B-side of the 45 RPM single of Cetera's first number one song as a solo performer in 1986, "Glory of Love".

Album:

Solitude/Solitaire is the second solo album by former Chicago bassist and vocalist Peter Cetera, and his first album after leaving the band in 1985. It was released in June 1986. The album includes the hits "Glory of Love" and "The Next Time I Fall" (with Amy Grant); both reached the No. 1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.Solitude/Solitaire was produced by Michael Omartian,who later co-produced Cetera's 2001 album, Another Perfect World.Cetera co-wrote eight of the nine songs on the album, "The Next Time I Fall" being the exception.Because Cetera had been a prominent songwriter for Chicago, many of the songs on Solitude/Solitaire were rumored to originally have been slated for Chicago 18, especially "Big Mistake" and "Daddy's Girl".The album was Cetera's greatest solo success, peaking at No. 23 on the Billboard 200 chart.It was certified platinum by the RIAA, selling over one million copies in the U.S.Solitude/Solitaire marked a high point in Cetera's career, where he achieved success for the first time on his own. It sold more copies than Chicago 18, Chicago's first album without Cetera, which peaked at No. 35.Japanese remastered version of PETER CETERA‘s “Solitude / Solitaire“, released as part of the Forever Young Series, now out of print. Perhaps the best solo album from the former CHICAGO bassist & vocalist, with a typically Eighties sound (1986) and featuring exquisite session musicians like guitar master Dann Huff and TOTO’s Jeff Porcaro.This is Peter Cetera first solo album after leaving CHICAGO in 1985, with most the songs co-written by him with guru producer Michael Omartian. Because Cetera had been a prominent songwriter for his former band, many of the songs on “Solitude / Solitaire” were rumored to originally have been slated for Chicago 18 album.In fact, “Solitude / Solitaire” marked a high point in the singer’s career, and sold more copies than Chicago 18, the first album without Cetera.Capitalizing a little cross-marketing for the movie The Karate Kid – Part II, Cetera’s gallant “Glory Of Love” (track 3 here) served as the film’s theme and became a major hit, as well as defined his post-Chicago sound - essentially without the horns, with one ultra-slick L.A. producer in Michael Omartian.Indeed, “Solitude / Solitaire” is a a slickly recorded and produced album with a pristine, crystal clear sound so mid-80s and highlighting Cetera’s excellent tenor vocals and gift for melody.This album is best known for the two #1 singles that define Cetera’s solo career for many people: the mentioned “Glory Of Love” , and “The Next Time I Fall,” his duet with singer Amy Grant. Had these songs been performed by almost any other mainstream singer I probably would have dismissed them, but because of his unmistakable vocals I unabashedly adore them both.But “Solitude / Solitaire” is much more than those singles, mostly ranging from upbeat rock&pop to lite AOR with Westcoast touches, all with the expected sheen of the era.Great rhythm guitars drive “Big Mistake”, a track that shows off a more aggressive vocal approach that fans of Cetera previous album would enjoy, and “They Don’t Make ‘Em Like They Used To” is a radio-friendly track which might have been a hit if fans and record label not been clamoring for more ballads.“Queen Of The Masquerade Ball,” “Daddy’s Girl”, title track and “Wake Up To Love” are all essentially synth-based songs with smooth grooves that are elevated by his voice and some catchy melodies.This Japanese remaster corrects the flat sound of the original CD release, and everything comes out in full.“Solitude / Solitaire” is pure ’80s, and while stubborn rock fans may hate it, Peter Cetera’s solo material is worth checking out, especially if you ever loved his voice during his Chicago years.Production is top notch, as well performances of all involved.Track 2 is titled ‘They Don’t Make ‘Em Like They Used To’… Indeed.
