May 3, Chicago III had already spent weeks in the Top 10. It was famously kept out of the #1 spot only by the massive Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack.
A "Triple Threat": Remarkably, on this date, Chicago's first two albums (Chicago Transit Authority and Chicago II) were also still on the charts, meaning the band had three double albums charting simultaneously—a rare feat in music history.
