Chicago Transit Authority was the initial name of the band currently known as Chicago. They called themselves Chicago Transit Authority from their beginnings in February 1967 until their self-titled debut album came out in April 1969. By the time they recorded their second album late that year, they had shortened their name to Chicago after the CTA (Chicago's public transportation agency) threatened to sue.
