Liner Note Author: Chris Rizik. This set collects two of the Chi-Lites' later-era LPs, 1976's Happy Being Lonely and 1977's The Fantastic Chi-Lites, on a single disc. The group was pretty much past its sell-by date at this point and beset with frequent personnel changes, although both of these albums are surprisingly pleasant and poignant at points -- even if they didn't yield any big hits. ~ Steve Leggett
