    This song is pretty special to me.
    My Dad ( who I rarely saw growing up) picked me up one day.
    I was probably 12 years old.
    He pulls out this 45 and says "You like this band?" and it was this song. Idk why he gave it to me and Idc. Just the fact that he thought of me, long enough to get it and give it to me was good enough for me.
    He died when I was 17 years old.

    I’VE BEEN MEANING TO SHOW YOU THIS! I’m so glad you saw it. Terry Kath is one of my faves! One of our best ever! Excellent! Jimi loved him! His singing voice has even been compared to Ray Charles! We lost Terry way too young. The band wasn’t the same when he was gone. Sad story 😢 I was 15 and devastated. Been a fan of this Chicago since I was 10. Im sure you’ve heard many of their songs. But this is the best lineup of them. I’m so glad you digging on this Leo! Dig deep. This is one FANTASTIC BAND! 😃☮️💜🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁

    Brother, people have NO IDEA how great of a band Chicago was and how they ticked off all of the boxes, Peter Cetera on bass and his majestic voice, Terry Kath on lead guitar, the horn section and percussionist. Everything was top notch when music was really the focus.. It was treat watching your response to this and discovering this song performance. This was REAL music.

If you sing or play a song sometimes you get this really weird feeling and you get in the zone. Thats when you feel the song in the crowd. Just like you did in the guitar solo. He played that song with so much heart that he made you feel it with him. Very powerful energy and not all people can do it but thats what makes them rock stars. ✌️

    Hey man. Terry Kath just nailed that solo. He shot himself in the head by mistake and died way too young. As someone else pointed out, the song title references the time of the morning Peter Cetera was trying to write this song. He was up all night struggling to write and the rest is history.
