Killer introduction. Crazy how people expect a Chicago from 1972. Give these guys props for keeping it alive and giving us an opportunity to witness greatness.

"Witness Greatness " ? You mean thanks for keeping it alive for those of us who MISSED OR MISS the greatness that was. This is a nostalgia band, not the real thing and not even a shadow of what was in 1972 - a very poor version at that. Just saying, you kinda oversold it.

Those of us, who were there for the first CTA album, and all albums after, remember all the words to these songs, and in many cases, we can remember the order of the songs on the album they were from. Current, or previous versions of the band, each stood/stands out, as the best in the business. They can bring it, day in, and day out.

Robert Lamm did a pretty fair job of channeling Terry Kath's baritone bluesy vibe on this one. The horns are spectacular though. as usaul. Seen 'em several times; first time in 1969 in Burlington, Vermont. Yeah, Vermont!

I must confess when I first heard this group of guys singing and playing, I was like , okay ,um gonna buy their album and listen to it even if it kills me, a bunch of clean cut White guys singing and playing. Another group of beach boys and three dogs nights. It wasn't until some 30 years later I was starting to reminisce about all the many bands who were actually singing and playing music and which group came to mind? Chicago and Rare Earth , man it's really nice to see and hear live bands perform especially when you can actually listen to the words in the music . Man these guys are still maintaining.

Chicago and the Moody Blues are my favorite bands. They both wrote and performed suites of music, not focusing on a "top 40" hit. I'm a brass player so recognize the complexity and technical skills the Chicago guys have (to this day). Not to mention chops!

Through the years, the changes & personalities, Chicago has brought incredible music to its fans. Hard to imagine their retirement.

Robert Lamm is an amazing talent. And one who can sing as well as play and write. And his voice is still holding up pretty good. Amazingly well. It’s in the genes with this guy.

Still the greatest ! No other group compares to them in creativity, endurance, variety of music,; I might add that simply from a musician's POV, their repertoire is like the classical music from the great composers of the historical periods of music,,---like symphonies, concertos, sonatas, even operettas ---played hundreds of times down through time---to an audience that never tires of hearing it performed; the first real timeless American pop music. Only in the USA could this music arise.

He visto a estos chicos en concierto muchas veces, y así es exactamente como se ve y suena. ¡Sin edición sofisticada, solo el trato real, en vivo y en voz alta! Gracias Chicago. Ademas después de perder trágicamente al gran Terry Kath y luchar por encontrar un reemplazo, el grupo vuelve más fuerte que nunca. Keith es un guitarrista fantástico, Robert suena muy bien en la voz y el resto de la banda está tan unido como siempre. Estos muchachos son verdaderos músicos y lo demuestran cada noche que tocan

STILL ONE OF THE GREATEST SHOWS ON EARTH!!!!! LIke the Energizer Bunny, they just keep going and going and going........

I'm just learning viewing, listening to, the New Chicago. I'm a Huge Fan of Robert Lamm for many reasons. Aside from his incredible versatile talent, he's a very intelligent and knowledgeable interviewee. I love hearing him talk about the band. Also I Love his Performance. Here I get such a Kick out of him when he does some of the parts that Terry used to do like the intro song and: "It Just doesn't matter any how". Robert is so impressive that at his age, you can easily see He's a Rocker! and He Rocks Well. I still Dig his voice, regardless how senior it is. All in All, I Love these guys, the original band members. I've seen interviews with them and there's no ego between them. A bunch of friendly Rocker, professional musicians, artists, that have been getting along for over 50 years! What band has the Personal Relationship Stats or whatever that these guys have... I wonder... I remember hearing at one time that they hadn't missed a gig in 50 years... if that's true, even near true, that's incredibly amazing fantastic... magical! How could that be? I can't even imagine. I heard that the only gig they only half missed is when at one of their concerts, the stage collapsed... I'm not sure if they went on or not, or played a bit, not sure. Okay, So I have to watch and read more interviews about this New Chicago Band. By the way, I'm looking for an interview where Robert Lamm says that Terry Kath was his Hero. He says a lot of cool stuff about Terry and then says that Terry was his Hero.

I'm late to your comment. Sadly, egos did get in the way. Why do you think so many of the members have left or were fired? Robert Lamm is great, but drugs did him in for a while.

My first Chicago concert back in 1975 at d.c. capital center was amazing. I will always like their music.

I grew up with this band in early 1970. I miss Terry Kath, Peter Cetera and Danny Seraphin.

That’s awesome Jason!! Killing it live bro!!!

what your life will be will show on your face. the bassist from chicago, dissipated. jimmy Pankow and Lee Laughnane hanging on to their talent and passions.

Hey, you know band members move on and original members must get sick of playing the same tunes for years, so they change things to make songs fresh. I know you can't replace Pete Cetera's voice, but they did a really great job in playing it how it was back in 1970.

That's so cool how he plays the flute at 21:03 or so.

increibles musicos nose puede sonar mejor maravillosos .

One of the best rock-jazz-pop group ever

Phenomenal....love that brass!!!!

But I still miss Daniel Seraphine on drums. He was really a special drummer. Too bad Chicago dumped him He was phenomenal. But still great to see Robert Lamm and James Pankow founders still rockin it. These guys are irreplaceable. There will never be a group like Chicago again. That was real music back then the best of all time. Zeppelin, Santana, Steely Dan, Pink Floyd, Eagles, Judas Priest, Rush, Yes, Journey , Cream, Foreigner. We will never see the likes of these bands again. Every band I mentioned now was unbelievably good

The drum-off near the end of "I'm a Man" (42:00) was outstanding.
