    “Your the inspiration” was a good 80’s hit if you guys haven’t done it by them. Might not be your style but I like it.😅 But i would also love it if you guys did “Truckin” by The Grateful Dead✌️☮️

    You guys are right that this song is well suited to its lyrics, but there's more. It's hard to convey unless you lived it, but the song has the spirit of a more relaxed time (with less technology), in which you could hang out in a "free" community. When they sing "listen children, all is not lost," I believe they're saying that that spirit still exists.

    Yeah Chicago was one of those few bands that could do hard rock and mellow ballads equally well. One of the best 70s bands for mellow songs... But in the 80s they completely lost the plot. Drum machines and cheap digital synthesizers and massive cheesy-cheese wiz. They are at the top of the list for the worst band sell out in history.

    I implore you, PLEASE do "Introduction", this is the first song from their first album, written and sung by the guitarist Terry Kath, who has the most beautiful blue eyed soul "Ray Charles" like voice. Time signature changes, tempo changes, key changes, style changes, it is truly just unreal. This is the reason I picked up a bass by the way, Peter Cetera's playing is superb. You will get a real feel for what these pioneers were capable of.

    I hope they will listen to a couple of War songs. Cisco Kid is short but great. If Andy and Alex want something along these lines...like with some tasteful wind, big band, I know ythey will love War's The World is a Ghetto. (A long one) I think need to get into some " socially-conscious", funky rock. Then there are other artists once you go on that path. (Some of the finer Curtis Mayfield songs, for example. Studio versions before live versions.) kzread.info/dash/bejne/oqh9xcerpMK4kZs.html

    Feeling Stronger Every Day, Make Me Smile, and Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is. As for similar bands, try Three Dog Night (One, Shambala, Eli's Coming, Momma Told Me Not To Come, Show Must Go On, and more), or Aliotta Haynes and Jeremiah (Lake Shore Drive), or Canned Heat (Going Up the Country), or maybe even the Moody Blues, though they're arguably closer to Pink Floyd.

  • @thefoss5387

    Contemporaries to Chicago were Blood, Sweat, and Tears (I believe they shared Producers), I'd start with Spinning Wheel, also a more forgotten group Chase (Sadly, there was a tragic plane crash), I'd go with Get It On. Off the same album as Saturday in the Park, and as Andy likes Cetera, I'd consider a more topical song, Dialog Part 1, in which Kath and Cetera trade social views with a ripping rhythm guitar track, by Kath, underneath. Note, I was a classmate of Trumpeter Lee Loughnane's younger brother, Phil, at Elmwood Park High School near Chicago from 1971 to 1975.

    I was fortunate enough to have met and chatted with Dartanyan Brown, fellow Drake University Alum, and Bassist/Vocalist for Chase's third and final album, Pure Music. Chase, with its Drake connection had a big following there, but, I understand, didn't get as much hype nationally. Ironically, the first track off of Chase's debut album was "Open Up Wide" and the final track of their final album, "Close Down Tight." Jim Peterik, founder of the Chicago based group, Ides of March, and author of Vehicle, also penned songs and sang on Pure Music. My other favorite tracks from Chase include their cover of d'Abo's Handbags and Gladrags, Peterik's Boys and Girls Together, from the debut album, and So Many People and Hades from Ennea.

    Fair review. Chicago has so many great tunes, especially the early albums before Terry Kath passed. Make me Smile is one that got a lot of air in the 70s. The short version on AM and the long version on FM. Both are good cuts. Cheers Gents!
