Can't say it enough that the best music came from the 70's!!! And I lived in it, what a Time it was!!!

You hear people talk about a band being "tight", well these guys were SO tight that Terry could start strumming his axe perfectly timed to when the others would finish getting set up and come in with him right on time, in sync, not breaking rhythm with each other, gliding into the song as smoothly as an Olympic ski jumper sliding down the ramp to the gold medal flight.

My favorite guitar solo of all time ❤

It rocks!! Definitely in my top 10. Up there with Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven live.

You just witnessed one of the greatest live guitar solos ever! Terry Kath was a genius and one of the greatest guitar players the world has ever known. I was so fortunate to have seen Chicago at Fillmore East about 3 weeks before this concert. Terry was on fire that night too. RIP guitar master. 🎸🔥

The lyrics say it, after that guitar solo, I feel like I need to sleep too.

Just to see a show like that would have been phenomenal. I can not imagine being able to PLAY like that! What a fantastic sound all around, super talent!

Agree thousand percent, this was when music was music.

Jimi Hendrix told Chicago's publicist that Terry was a better guitar player than he was. They actually had plans to do shows together. When Chicago made the studio album with this song on it, Cetera's jaw had been broken and he had to sing it through clenched teeth because his jaws were wired shut.

I am 70-something and just started taking bass guitar lessons. Get yourself to some keyboard lessons! If I can do it, you can do it!

There is a Russian band called Leonid & Friends, that covers Chicago, BST, Earth Wind & Fire. You can't tell them from the original bands. Check them out. They do a lot of touring around the U.S.

This an amazing performance. I never get tired of it. R.I.P. Terry Kath. More excellent live performances to check out REO Speedwagon “Roll With The Changes”, Billy Joel “New York State of Mind” live from the Old Grey Whistle Test and Queen at Live Aid.Thanks for the great reaction.

Tanglewood is the super famous venue where the Boston Symphony Orchestra gives sold out performances. It has been around for a long time. Tanglewood is a music venue and festival in the towns of Lenox and Stockbridge in the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts. It has been the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 1937. Tanglewood is also home to three music schools: the Tanglewood Music Center, Tanglewood Learning Center, and the Boston University Tanglewood Institute. Besides classical music, Tanglewood hosts the Festival of Contemporary Music, jazz and popular artists, concerts, and frequent appearances by James Taylor, John Williams, and the Boston Pops.

Jimi Hendrix had a favorite guitarist. His name was Terry Kath.

I have seen them live back then. Terry Kath was OFF THE CHAIN. I HAVE NEVER TIRED OF THIS VERSION. SEEN IT HUNDREDS OF TIMES. LEGENDARY

This has remained my favorite Chicago tune of all time.

Back in the day Hendrix was quoted pointing to Terry Kath was his favorite guitar player. CTA was over when he blew his brains out, so sad. RIP GOAT !!!!!!!!!!

I really love this song.. and I was there with you enjoying the whole way through!.. Thank you! xo

ah that's interesting your dad had the records, but me born in 1961 it's my eldest 2 brothers who were around 16 in 1970 who bought all those prog rock LPs and Chicago, Yes, Genesis, ELP, Pink Foyd, King Crimson ( which i called King Krimson ), Santana, Hendrix, the Woodstock Album, Billy Cobham, Rick Wakeman, Gentle Giant, and some fliutists because my bro played transverse flute, so Paul Horn, Styx, 10cc, Fleetwood Mac, Gino Vannelli, BB King, oh and even Grand Funk Railroad ( i ddidn't play that one i thought it was blue grass and i had heard blue grass i didn't like, but they were not blue grass. Oh and the crazy flutist ... Jethro Tull. My Brothers didn't have Edgar Winter records they were missing something good. Well records were expensive for summer job pays

Why can't there be music like before? All these young cat's today talking about how they are music producers and have opened independent labels w/friends or whomever. Those of us who grew up in the sixties, seventies and eighties could explain how it use to be to find these singers/bands. Talent scouts would go out and pound the pavement .. going from one LIVE show to another, looking for talented and the top/most popular sounds on the music strips. These independent labels can sign anyone they want and produce the music they want. Autotune/stereo recording does not need to be used. They can take it back to 'old school' mono/analog recording styles. One should remain optimistic .. yes? There seems to be quite a lot of young people today that wish current music had guitar solos, horn sections etc etc .. just all around raw, God given talent within the members of a group/singers. Trends come around in full-circle thru out life. Its time we go back to what was real "music"...

STILL ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER ..TERRY KATH ❤

They were mostly classically trained at DePaul university -especially horns, except for Terry who never learned to read music - basically .. self taught by ear - jimi said he played guitar better than he did and invited band to tour with him !!

Old man life bbc and Black Sabbath Paris almost the same time.. among the best too. This has to be one of my favs of all time though.. everyone is just killing it

Live performances?...meatloaf "Paridise by the dashboard light"...awesome!

Check out Ten Years After - "I'm Going Home Woodstock"

Chicago at their peak.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: those horns are TIGHT.

Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Texas Flood" Live at the El Mocambo

Double albums had a perfect second purpose. Make your morning mood.

Reaction was great my man! You're gonna have to do some Rory Gallagher.

Check out Grand Funk Railroad - "Inside Looking Out" Live version

There's nothing like an EPIC live performance. Check out my favorite, The Who's "My Generation" from Live at Leeds. A 15 minute raw and powerful medley worth every second. Santana's Soul Sacrifice from Woodstock is epic as well.

Loved your reaction! Deep dive on them is so worth it. Thank you.😁

Best reaction ever, not just to this video.

Chicago was and is one of my top bands. One of the best guitar solos ever created. But if you want more horns, let's hear some Phil Collins solo work with the Phenix Brass (from Earth Wind and Fire). Anything from his 1990 Berlin Concert, but 'The West Side' is a flat-out jazz fusion piece (instrumental).

Please react to Deep Purple "Child in Time" LIVE 1970! You will NOT be disappointed

Check out Stevie Ray Vaughn - " Raining Down in Texas" Live at Montreux 1982"

I have a song suggestion for you, again from this same era and one of the best live recordings. React to the Allman Brothers Band “ In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” from their 1971 At Fillmore East album. There is no video of this performance and any video of this song you would find is not from this series of concerts and not as good. It may be the best live instrumental ever performed. The interplay between the guitarists and bass player is on another level. Check it out. You will thank me for it.

Journey 1981 Houston Escape tour recording has to have several best live performances for them - Don’t Stop Believing, Mother Father, Faithfully. Check it out.

Most amazing part of the solo is that all he has is a wahwah pedal, nothing else.

Chicago was a standard back in the day. I’m 10 years older than you!🎸🤘

Your headphone cord always goes on the left ear!

LIVE requests????? I just found this one lately..... Black Sabbath: "WAR PIGS"- LIVE in PARIS. please check it out. The Drummer beat the drums with the thick end of the sticks... Them drums were screamin for mercy, not to mention the Lead guitar and Ozzy's vocals.....

This is what happened when a handful of young JAZZ musicians got together in a coffee shop / cafe and decided to form a rock band......( there was no money in jazz at that time ).

Since you want good live videos, this is from aTV appearance of Chicago doing "l'm A Man": kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYFqzpmtp7LMo9I.htmlsi=Wm9ccBcPZOiqg-Fs. It's cool them all getting into playing percussion back in 1969.

Do HART stairway to heaven tribute Kennedy ctrl. Led Zeppelin.

The drum pedal was messed up is all.

If you're looking for great live performances, check out The Allman Brothers Band - Whipping Post - 9/23/1970 - Fillmore East (Official) kzread.info/dash/bejne/eImq2rSjidTQdbQ.html Also: Traffic - Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys - Live 72 (Full Song) kzread.info/dash/bejne/hGyBmrRxY5ipm5c.html

You're doing live performances and you haven't done ANY AC/DC?

⁠@@jobai3229no it’s not an urban legend. They got sued by the chicago transit authority. In order to avoid the lawsuit they changed their name to Chicago. They even did a commercial for the CTA.

Chicago Transit Authority was their first album, when they went by that name. The song "25 Or 6 To 4" was on their second album, with the band name shortened to just Chicago. On vinyl it was on the second disc, first side, second track, right after "Fancy Colours". Their first 3 albums were studio double LPs, their fourth was a 4 LP box set compilation of tracks recorded live during 8 shows at Carnegie Hall.

As usual,studio vision is 10 times better. Music is about sound.

Not even close

When Jimmy Hendrix was asked what it was like to be the best guitarist in the world he said... Ask the guy from Chicago

Murdered. Really?! Bye!

Early Chicago aka Chicago transit authority had some of the most amazing music out there before Terry Kath’s unfortunate accident and then became soft and ballady. Poem 58 is another must listen.
