Spot on! Unquestionably music in every genre was better when record labels controlled the industry. Bands needed to reach a high bar of professionality and talent. Not true anymore. The digital era led to the demise of the labels and now anything goes. And there is so much dreck, it can be difficult to find good music. Example: Spotify confirms through its Co-Head of Music Jeremy Erlich that the company adds 60,000 new tracks in a day. That amounts to 22 million tracks uploaded in a single year. It also means that a new song enters Spotify every 1.4 seconds. And that's just Spotify!

Yes, Jimi Hendrix was highly complimentary of Terry Kath's guitar playing. Shows how special Terry was. He was the heart and soul of the band. They were never the same after his passing. The original Chicago lineup was some of the greatest musical talent ever assembled.

[@Mike-rk8px]

I’m 56 and I grew up with hippie parents who played great music. I remember thinking to myself when I was a kid that if music was this incredible now, imagine how incredible it will be when I’m old. Who knew it would suck as badly as it does now! It was bad enough in the 90’s, but now I just tune it out as best I can. To make matters worse the lyrics are shit. If I watch music reaction videos on KZbin I only watch ones hosted by older people, because young people only seem to pay attention to the beat or how high or long a singer can hold a note. They can react to a song with profound lyrics and never mention them. I saw a reaction to John Lennon’s extremely hard hitting “Working Class Hero” and the only thing this guy commented on was that he liked Lennon’s voice. After that I’m careful about who I watch.

Terry Kath was a monster guitarist. . Great documentary by his daughter recently with her looking to learn more about him as he died when she was toddler. Jimi Hendrix loved him as a guitarist. When asked how it feels to be best guitarist in rock Hendrix replied, "I don't know. You should ask Terry Kath". Hendrix had Chicago tour with his band.

[@stpnwlf9]

I've heard this quote attributed to several different guitarists talking about a hundred others. It's almost certainly fictitious. That said, it is well documented that Hendrix heard Terry Kath play and thought he was great. Apparently he felt that of all the guitarists of the late 60s, Terry was the one whose style resembled his (Hendrix's) the most.

[@raybernal6829]

Jimmy Pankow has stated in an interview that JH actually said that TK at that time was one of the best guitarists he's ever heard.

Incorrect. He said Rory Galagher was the best living guitar player. He told Chicagos manager while trying to sign them as Experiences opening act that Kath was as good as him. See Hendrix on Dick Cavett video on YT. Alco Chicago declined to open for Hendrix.

Yep indeed. Without the context of the studio version, this has less impact and little to reference for new Chicago listens. Even though it sounds similar it is also vastly different in many ways. This is a (should be) showcase performance after hearing some of their songs. It just works better that way.

My favorite American band or group! I was in Cuba when I first listened to this song. I thanked my mother for sending a copy of a Chicago LP containing this song. I'm glad that I now live in the US since 1980 and I'm now 72 years old, and a US citizen. By the way, nobody these days make music of this quality.

Cool reaction. The song "25 or 6 to 4" by Chicago is about the process of writing a song. The title refers to the time of day when the song was written, 25 or 26 minutes before 4 AM. The song's writer, Robert Lamm, was living in a house in the Hollywood Hills at the time and could see the city below him late at night. He was feeling inspired and wrote the song about his experience. The song has a driving beat and a catchy melody, and it has become one of Chicago's most popular songs.

[@coffee-xg6my]

What was happening at the beginning was they were having some trouble with the drums. One of the symbols appeared to be messed up so you saw the stage guy out there helping the drummer get it fixed while Terry Cath (the guitar player) was trying to keep the crowd occupied with some noodling on his guitar until they got it fixed before he busted out on the song. By the way, the accidental shooting happened after a party at one of the roadie's house. He started playing around with a .38 revolver pistol, spinning it on his finger and putting it to his head several times and pulling the trigger . His friend kept warning him to be careful. Then he picked up a 9mm pistol. Showed his friend there were no bullets in the clip and placed it back in the gun. Unfortunately he didn't know there was a bullet in the chamber and when he put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger it killed him instantly. At. the time this happened in 1978, I personally remember it was being reported that he was playing "Russian roulette" but that doesn't seem to actually be the case since he thought there were no rounds in the gun. If you watch the movie, "The Deer Hunter" and you'll see the game of Russian Roulette demonstrated.

In southeast Michigan there is an outdoor venue called Pine Knob. Chicago would come in the summer a play every night for a week. They would do charity baseball games to bid time during the day. I saw them there when Chicago IV was out.

Pete Cetera. Bass player and singing this song. "Four marines didn't like a long-haired rock 'n' roller in a baseball park," he later recounted. "And of course, I was a Cub fan, and I was in Dodger Stadium, and that didn't do so well. I got in a fight and got a broken jaw in three places, and I was in intensive care for a couple of days." While he recovered, he admitted it did literally impact his craft. "The only funny thing I can think about the whole incident is that, with my jaw wired together, I actually went on the road," he explained. "And I was actually singing through my clenched jaw, which, to this day, is still the way I sing."

This was part of a legendary concert of theirs in Massachusetts. Drummer Danny Seraphine messed up his drum set on the previous song, and guitarist Terry Kath was riffing while a stagehand fixed Danny's drums, it was not a soundcheck. Go dig up their debut album when they were known as The Chicago Transit Authority and play these two tracks: "Introduction" and "Poem 58". Guitar player Terry Kath wrote "Introduction" and sang lead vocals. He was called "The White Ray Charles" by his bandmates. Soulful baritone voice! "Poem 58" is nine minutes of PURE FUNK led by Terry Kath on guitar, Danny Seraphine on drums, and Peter Cetera on bass. Kath's guitar will have you needing an ice pack for your jaw after you pick it up from the floor! When they were "The Chicago Transit Authority", they were the house band at the Whisky a Go Go in LA. One night between sets, Jimi Hendrix went to their dressing room after catching the first set. He walked up to their sax player Walt Parazaider and said, "You guys have a horn section that sounds like one set of lungs and a guitar player that's better than me! You wanna go on the road?" They said "YEAH!". And that's how they became Hendrix's opening act on a national arena tour.

[@donnakubiski5572]

Saw them at the Chicago Stadium in August of 1973. I had just turned 19 at the end of July. It was my first concert and I loved it! Saw them again in June of 1992 on a twin bill with the Moody Blues at Poplar Creek Music Theater, which was an outdoor venue in Hoffman Estates, IL.

Jazz rock fusion started in the late 60's. One of the earliest bands was Sweetwater. Although most people have no idea who Sweetwater was because they were short lived. The singer Nancy got in a bad car accident in Glendale CA. She was hit by a drunk driver on the 405 fwy. She was in a coma with a trach tube that affected her vocal chords so Alex (the bands founder) broke up the band because no one knew, not even Nancy if she would ever be able to sing again. They were however the first band that played at Woodstock 1969. Not the first performer, just the first band.
