ORLANDO, FLORIDA 32867 - Hudba
Chicago has been one of my favorite groups of all time along with Earth Wind and Fire for the past 50 years.
Cetera with those great vocals, man this band was so good back then, and that horn section.
Yes. I totally agree. Jimmy Pankow is still playing trombone with them now!
That is soo sweet - sounds as fresh as ever. One of their best tracks for sure, do you hear all those ingenious changes, that blazing guitar, those soaring horns? What could be better?
"Questions 67&68" has the same level of care in the written parts for the horn section as is in Blood Sweat & Tears' 1968 album. Those written brass fills make all the difference in elevating the song's bright optimism.
Layered brilliance intersects undeniable pulse .
The woven genres never fail to deliver in the Terry Kath Era.
I am still mesmerized by this song more than 50 years after hearing it the first time.
As a long time marching band nerd those horns give me such joy.
That horn section is fire!! Can’t go wrong with any Chicago song, really.
Chicagos finest song... and that's saying something
Jimi Hendrix said that Terry Kath of Chicago was his favorite guitarist. To bad we lost him in 1979 due to a stupid gun accident.
The title alludes to the years 1967 and 1968. Robert Lamm, the composer of the piece, was transitioning from ending a relationship to starting a new one.
absolutely love that horn section. so talented! and the 3 tempo changes - all in sync with each other! don't believe anyone today could pull that off. written by Robert Lamm - lyrics and music arrangements (keyboards) and shared vocals with Peter Cetera (bass). That is what Chicago is all about: the rock band with horns! not for back up and background - Fully integrated into the melodies and music.
I swear that I read an interview where he said the questions were two that he asked after a lengthy discussion about their relationship.
"Do you still love me and do still want to be with me."
Two questions nobody wants to hear the answer to when they already know the truth.
As an old trombone player, I really like the way a brass section stands out in the song. Peace!
I'm glad to see others appreciate this amazing group.
Your the inspiration Chicago 1984 is amazing cetera vocals
Underrated guitarist
On the CBS Letterman show, Paul Shaffer & company would often perform this going into/coming back from an ad break - always bummed me out to only catch a bit of it, as it's one of my favorite Chicago songs.
I wish the early albums had better sonic quality - they sound "mixed for AM radio".
"This feels so good to listen to" nailed it. 💪
The questions are about the relationship the writer who is the pianist, lam. , tali,ing about his relationship with his girlfriend in 1967 and 1968.
Saturday in the park by Chicago is another Saturday song. Peace!
70s Chicago ( yeah...and late 60s ) is just REALLY GOOD!
Saw them a couple months ago. They still put on a great show!
Such joyful music! I had to hear the song to remember it. The title didn't click. Love your enthusiasm at finding new music.
This was the first song by Chicago that I ever heard.Panic! at the Disco sampled some of the intro in their song "Hallelujah".
Nice comparison on "Saturday rock and roll." There is no logic in love!
I love the song. Of course back in the day we recognized that 67 and 68 referred to the past two years, cuz it was released in 1969.
Well, yeah, given that one of Chicago's biggest hits is "Saturday In the Park", I'd say your categorizing them as "Saturday Rock" is on the money!😂😉
I know you saw "Beginnings" live at Tanglewood, but you probably shouldn't skip the studio cut. It has its own unique charms.
Great music. Glad you're checking out more of this great album. By the way, Ren is soon coming out with Money Game part 3. Maybe when he does, you can react to all 3 parts. Money Game parts 1 & 2 are great, so we're all pretty excited to see what part 3 will entail, but the 3 part tale of Jenny and Screech is also a must.
Chicago's first 10 or so albums are all excellent.
I recognized these tracks when I heard them just now though I had not remembered their names. What a pleasant reminder of something I had forgotten. You never did finish Blood Sweat & Tears 1st album (though iirc BS&T gets blocked relentlessly).
Finally you've heard this Fantastic Rock Classic from Chicago !! 👍😎
A HUGE Smash Hit for them in my youth and a Big song for us Teen couples growing up in the early 70s Lol 👩❤💋👨 an awesome Summer song !! 🏖 Another Great played everyday on Classic Rock Radio stations around the nation !!! 📻🎶🎼✌
I've always liked this song, I like the horns and I love the guitar work in the intro. I also really like how they kept the full decay of the piano at the end. I think I read that it is a full 22 seconds of nothing but the sound of the piano fading away.
Diamond album, one of Chicago's best work
You called this “Saturday Rock”. It’s great Wednesday Rock, too.
Poem 58 is the best song on side two
Hey Justin! How are you my friend? Growing up in Chicago was cool, being a fan of Chicago was part of it. The first seven albums are all masterpieces. Enjoy!👍🔈🔉🔊😎
The album came out in 69. I always thought the years 67 and 68 were referenced.
Hi Justin. Dave from London (but enjoying some glorious weather Down By The Sea). Another classic song, which I've always thought merges infectious pop with jazz rock. It's seamless, and you're so right about the integration of all the musicians and singers in the band. From Peter Cetera's melodic vocals, Terry Kath's fluid guitar runs, and that terrific horn break (of course the horns are great throughout). Now we hit a rocky patch - more rock than jazz, I mean, and one of the greatest guitar solos in rock history comes up soon!
P.S. my song ref Down By The Sea is by The Strawbs.
That’s the place to be after a Hard Hard Winter…Little Sleepy….Turned my Face to the Wind…..Back on the Farm
This isn't a song, it's sounds from my childhood... as is the rest of the album.
Didn't recognize the song title. Recognized the first few notes into the intro. You got another great song by the tail. I'll watch the rest of your reaction.
The first three albums feel that way. Another album with Sunday afternoon feel is The Allman Brothers - Eat A Peach or The Young Rascals Greatest Hits. Check them out.
This is sad, but I can't hear this band without Russian Roulette coming intp my mind. And I was a big fan, saw them live in the 70s.
had this 45 single before i bought the great album
TMI, now I’m going to feel differently during this song, sadder than I thought but, a lot of “free” love was happening back then.
Bound to happen, just be in the moment time.
Kind of the same vibe as Donny Hathaway’s For All We Know, crying time again. Sorry, I’m a softy.
We can start a club for old softies.
@@maruad7577
Done.
Like your shirt, however, Jimi Hendrix said that Terry Kath was the greatest guitar player of the ever!
You are listening to Jimi Hendrix favorite guitarist!
Along with these other three horny bands: The Waterboys (early lps), Dexys Midnight Runners &/or Dexys, and cough, Five Iron Frenzy, I'd say that I've neglected Horn Rock.
Red Army Blues is more Sax than horn , but it's Essential Justin. Thanks 4 allowing me to hear this. Crescendo Overload. Was it Van Morrison who managed to BRING IT Down for shade and light contrast? Another example of neglect on my behalf. Re -Subbed!!
Try Chris Rea its all gone live 1988. Its absolut Insane
Texasssss… she said, what? Texassss.
😁👍---✌&❤
I love this album. But, I’ll warn you now that the side 3 opener, “Free Form Kath Guitar,” may be one you may want to steel yourself for listening. It’s exactly what the title says, i.e, six plus minutes of Terry Kath experimenting with feed back and different tones on guitar. After hearing it once, it’s one I tend to skip when I come to it.
Post Terry Kath = not so much .
Another chirpy, OTT, brass-fest. Think I'm done with this album(s), there's a horrible thread I just don't want to pick at here. And shades of ELO (sans strings), and Tom Jones in here too I thought. I'll get my coat...
Yeah, it all smacks of the opening tune on an old 70s/80s variety or chat show that was hosted by some perma-tanned git with a pencil mic. Lol
@@pentagrammaton6793 Nailed it 😄
@@pentagrammaton6793 Are we in Noel Edmonds late 8Os or more Des O'Connor mid 70s zone? Unsung Docu "Sophisticated Tech for the Ages Part One: The Pencil Mike" points to Des (or even Les Dawson Bless him, but the over-riding piano skits have eroded any memory of Over enthusiastic extended Horn Section blasts on his shows. )
Question : Did Seaside Special have Horns / Pencil Mikes? There's a Themed Review Channel Franchise up for grabs here. Variety Show Appraisals and Tech Assessment Tools thruout Time..
Nice to be back. Is it? Is It?!
@@HippoYnYGlaw an unholy blend of the two, in my mind hahaha
Decent band, but too many honking hoooooorns
You didn't know that about this band? They're all about the horns.
Blood Sweat and Tears horn section was nowhere near the level of the boys from Chicago.
