Chicago - Dialogue (1972)

Filmed at the Arie Crown Theater, Chicago (Nov. 1972).

As great and underappreciated of a guitar player that Kath was..........his vocals are just as impressive......what a soulful unique sounding voice...... Man is he missed by us musicians.......

I've always felt this song was the real gem on Chicago V.

[@BrettHeadley]

I used to hate Peter Cetera because of where his music went after Terry Kath died. But when they were together, they were incredible. I'm now an admirer of Cetera now that I have watched 25 or 6 to 4 and this video as well as a few others like Make Me Smile. Without Terry, they just weren't the same. And who can blame Cetera for cashing in on his voice. People gotta eat.

[@74bshs]

I am 60 years old, I grew up with Chicago from their (and my) infancy. I can assure you, the group was never the same after Kath's passing, and even less so after Cetera left the group in '85. That was 36 years ago, everyone! I still can't believe it, but I have to hand it to the remainder of the group, you are still making a good job of things.

3 great vocalists, 7 top-notch musicians, at least 4 strong songwriters and music that matched the times. (early) Chicago is one of my two or there favorite bands ever.

[@philseida5428]

One of The Greatest Bands Ever Period. Might not have the popularity as many, but every bit as good. Musicianship=A+, 3 Lead Singers until Terry’s ( R.I.P. ) tragic death. Great Harmony, Background and Soul Singing. Jazz Fusion meets Classic Rock meets R&B meets Brass, etc. Danny criminally underrated on Drums as was Terry( Jimi said so himself ) on Guitar and Robert’s crucial early songwriting and keyboard work. Peter a very underrated Bass player and melodic as well. Of course Walter, James and Lee as well. What a Group.

[@jackieguccione94]

CHECK out leonid and friends Russian band does all Chicago songs they REALLY dont speak English im 65 following music my WHOLE life THEY are as good as Chicago in my opinion if not BETTER

[@mikeosmolak1864]

Hi I'm 67 and have loved Chicago since their inception. My 1st Chicago concert was the summer of '75 with the Beach Boys at Chicago Stadium. Fast forward 48 years. Chicago is still touring but they're only a fraction of what the original band sounds like. Lenoid and friends are more reminiscent than the supposed real group. I miss Terry, Peter, Robert, Danny, Jimmy, Walt and Lee they ARE and always will be Chicago!

[@djdavekool]

Terry and Peter - what an awesome duo! Both are so underrated as musicians!

[@HighSpeedNoDrag]

I believe Hendrix stated that Kath was better than him.

[@scotts1356]

INTERESTING FACT: The reason they end the song with we can make it "hap," is because when they recorded it, the tape ran out at "hap." So, that's how they sang it in concert!

[@liddlekiddle1962]

Thanks! I've always wondered. Makes sense.

[@normatible9795]

My feelings exactly. Chicago and this song in particular, represented a movement at the time. It was real and powerful, but it never came to its full potential. We , this generation, lost our way. Sadly 😢

[@Duriologist]

"Dialogue" is my favorite Chicago song of all time. Terry really rips it in his ride. He died when I was 17 but I never got to see him play in concert, and I regret it to this day.

[@jamesgileo1127]

Chicago V. Side 1. Blew me away when I bought the album back in '74. Still does.

[@jeffgugal7743]

Terry was a good friend of mine and I miss him dearly. He was then and still is today, in my opinion, the greatest guitar player that ever lived. He and I would get together and jam for the day every now and then and some things that he could make a guitar do were astonishing. Miss you TAK..

This son which is about the bad economy of the 70's and the war in vietnam (which i lived through). between Terry and Walter and Robert ,,,, they even today have more music and rock in their bodies than all of todays groups combined.

[@MichaelSimmons.]

I enjoyed hearing Cetera's bass lines in this song. A lot of the times, the horns drown them out. Cetera was a very underrated bassist, in my opinion.

[@beatlemania54]

Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I agree 100%. The cool thing about his playing,for people that listen, is that he rarely played exactly on the beat. He was a true jazz bass player. Extremely talented man. And when the song called for being on beat, such as "25 or 6 to 4", he was right there.

[@rockguru14]

i couldn't agree any more. his melodic bass lines brought a special groove to chicago, and he didn't get the credit he deserved. DEFINITELY goes for terry as well

Cetera is playing a Gibson Mahogany EB-3, which he apparently didn't care for as much as his Fender Maple Precision.

YES. Most of today's songs are escapist fare...I feel like our culture has gone south since the 60"s and 70s. Sure, plenty wrong in those eras too..but people were thinking, and wanting to change things. Now it's apathy, and hooking up, and selfies..and, well you get the idea.

The upcoming Terry Kath of 68-69 was one of Jimi Hendrix's favourites. I gather Hendrix, because of exposure to Sly Stone, Miles Davis, Blood Sweat And Tears, and Chicago, wanted to move to a broader horn-keys-orchestra (?) sound before he died.

[@SHIRLEYGiffordCashmanMS]

Seeing this video, with Peter and Kath so perfect and balanced performing together, I understand why Peter had to leave after Kath died. Leader Kath had been what held it all together, so the band had accepted all Kath's decisions. Kath and Peter were equally and hugely talented, no jealousy between them. However, the other members got jealous of Peter after Kath was gone. The beautiful balance was gone, and the band could not accept Peter anymore. My opinion is that it was petty jealousy on the parts of the rest of the band. What a huge pity for Chicago to have lost two geniuses, Peter and Kath. They cut off their noses to spite their faces when they refused to work out a deal to let Peter stay with the band and also have a solo career. After all, not many of us can even remember the names of the rest of Chicago, except Lamm. Kath and Peter were the stars. Chicago lost Peter's charisma and his Star Power, which he took with him on his solo career.

What's sad is that the message of the song is still so very true, if not even more so.

They came out of the 60's and just took it to an entirely different level. Timeless lyrics, and a solid solid groove.

This is the Chicago I loved best! Great vocals but---I still say...dat bass!

Always my favorite ❤. The main reason: Kath and Cetera communicate on the same emotional and spiritual level. It really is a "dialogue." The music by each person is unbelievable and fantastic too!

Powerful song, powerful sound, powerful band, CHICAGO!! They made it happen, in the moment, you got to go for it. You'll never know exactly when you are reaching all time highs, it just happens.
