Don’t underestimate the talents of Robert Lamm, Terry’s best friend and Co-author on many of their songs. He suffered deep depression and left band for 2 years after Terry passed away. Without both Terry & Robert, the band lost direction with Peter taking band into disco inspired bubblegum pop band 🤮

They wernt the same before Terry left, they had serious drug problems and they were seriously burnt out. They had made six fantastic albums and double albums but nobody could last that long at that much of a creative level. Blaming Peter for where they went is just ignoring they were already heading that way.

This is simply a fact. Kath was the soul of Chicago and their music was sublime until he died. Once Foster entered the picture they had some very good ballads, and Chi 17 was excellent, but they could never replace the genius of Kath.

@dearing79 I agree man. You know, all I've heard in the last 30/35 years or so was how conceited and hard to work with Peter Cetera was. I've never had the pleasure of meeting him or any of Chicago for that matter, but like the old saying goes, there are 2 sides to every story, so who knows? What I do know is that the whole band has given me a lot of happy times for many years, the whole band, not just Peter, and I'm thankful that we have had this band so long. As far as the stories about Peter, maybe they are true, but who knows? If I could sing AND play like him, I'm fairly sure I would be a little full of myself, haha. Anyway, it is all just my opinion and I just felt like expressing it. Peace to all and especially to my fellow Chicago fans!

The talent on this stage is rarely seen outside of a classic orchestra or pure jazz ensemble. 3 absolutely brilliant lead singers, who were all genius with their respective instruments. Add a drummer who has to be one of the all time greats, and add an off the chain horn section. Add to that their songwriting and arranging and you get Chicago.

Righteous Completely.. Solid tight band.. Music today sucks so much makes me cry watching this serious soulful art.

Was in 3rd grade when this came out. Away at weeks of summer camp, the counselors who were in their mid-teens enjoyed teaching littler kids to "dance" and they were always looking out for budding crushes among the kids. One of the counselors knew I had the hots for Hali, another 8 year old who looked like Shirley Temple. That counselor became matchmaker and put the '75 Greatest Hits album on the turntable in the mess hall where we were having a dance. She turned the lights down and grabbed me and Hali and showed us how to hold one another. Beginnings, Color My World and Searching make me shiver every single time, even 49 years later. We ended up sitting on a boulder under the moonlight, holding hands. Does it get any better than that?

I've loved this band since I've been 12 yrs old . I'm 63 now , never better band when I was a kid .

Ah, the 70s were the best. Thank goodness I got to grow up on the most fantastic music via radio and vinyl. And I was fortunate enough to see Chicago once, in 1980, after Kath had died. Most memorable outdoor concert ever.

1972 was one of the best years for music in my life. I lived in Fort lee NJ at the time. I saw Yes at MS Garden supporting Fragile I saw Loggins & Messina at the Garden I saw Deep Purple supporting Machine Head at the Garden. I saw Edgar Winter & White Trash they were crazy good lol... I saw Dave Mason at the Performing Arts Center warming up Santana and they blew them off the stage best sounding band I ever heard. I am very very lucky.

@@TvDaddyAndTheTabloidArmy yes, I grew up in Wheaton, suburb of Chicago… Stan was a cousin

These guys were masters of freeform jazz improvesation.

Guitar playing from 20.28 FANTASTIC...........truly one of the very greats.....TK

one of the most amazing band of all time

Chicago was perfect from the beginning of R&R.. They reached down deep for the sounds they wanted and didn’t compromise.

Thanks so much for posting such a purely glorious, live, raw, and beautiful video of some of the best musicians in our time. Chicago was my main band to listen to back in HS and this captures the greatness of their music.

Terry Kath known as one of the best guitarist ever. But look at each member of the band. So gifted in their own right.

Just wow wow wow. Dialogue 1&2. Just fabulous. Never again an era like this. Chicago!!!!!

Had the pleasure of seeing them just a few weeks earlier, late October, in Williamsburg Va.

Thanks so much for sharing---a fantastic night, indeed!

Tiny bit of trivia. Once, an interviewer asked Jimi Hendrix what it felt like to be the greatest guitarist of his generation. Jimi answered saying, "I dont know, ask Terry Kath.

That story, and variations of it have been going around a long time. The first time that I heard it, it was about Rory Gallagher.

GOD what happened to our music

Computers made things sterile if they are over used and you see that alot music was always a product but record companies saw the assembly line ability of computers and how they could just crank out music with ease and the influence of hip hop and samples It lost alot of it's emotion. It tends to be more focused on the artists rather than musical abilities. There are some good bands around but innovation like alot of the bands of the 60s 70s 80's and even 90's just is not there. Live instruments without all the computer assistance just gives that feeling and randomness digital music lacks. But hopefully there is a kid watching this video or other talented bands and it inspires them to not only learn the songs but create a new sound. You never knowm my nine year old likes they overproduced stuff but just is in awe of this video he says you can feel the music or when he watches jimi hendrix or even Elton John he is amazed that they can sing without aurotune. Who knows maybe it will inspire hm one day. At least he can appreciate good music. He also loves classical and jazz. So if my kiddo can appreciate the music of the past other kids will too.

@@ocpud2999 I just discovered Marcus King. He’s only 24 but he and his band (which includes horns) are the real deal and hope for the future. Super soulful singer and killer guitarist in the Southern Rock / Blues/ Soul vein.

Thanks, fantastic, nice audio too. So young, so talented. The early days rocked hard!!!!

When music was REAL ART by talented musicians, not like today's hacks. When my son's school jazz band plays Chicago I'm the crazy mom jumping out her seat - LOL!

Mariel Kraus .....👏🏻👏🏻😂😂🤣

Remember the Midnight Movies? For most of us, that was the only way we got to see this. How times have changed...

Chicago at the good 'ol arie crown..... 👍👍

This song is so appropriate for today . What a group , what a song.

Happy music=dialogue1&2= Chicago, and, the feel~good times are so lacking since TerryKath RIP~what a tremendous loss~ thankyou for posting

Damn I miss Terry's playing and soul. We could make it happen.

One of my favorite bands and one of the best concert I ever went to.

When I was in college, we had Chicago performing at least once a year. We listened to their albums incessantly. Terry Kath was one of the greatest guitarists of the late ‘60’s and early ‘70’s. He remains one of the best guitarists ever thanks to these videos. The horn section was always esoteric. How can I explain what it’s like to hear real music by real musicians and free of crutches such as auto tune.
