- Thank you to our patron Robert K for this FANTASTIC choice... I mean good god what can I even say about this? That it's some of the best music I've ever heard? Just like the 25 or 6 to 4 performance from the same show? Imagine being in this crowd.... just for a second. It must have been a revelation. RIP to Terry... what a legend. Danny was COOKING here.

I've always said , my favorite decade in music was from 1965 to 1975 . I'm 76 and it still remains my favorite era when everybody was inspiring everybody else , and the music came first !!!
Terry Kath was incredible! the whole band was amazing
Chicago's music changed when Terry died, they couldn't find another one like him.
He was the heart and soul and balls of the band.
@@chitownlee In fairness..they changed starting with Chicago VI..Kath was there for 2-3 more albums. They just changed direction and Kath's killer guitar work wasn't essential starting with that 6th album. T
@@TerryKrysinski That's why he was planning on leaving.
Nah...they already changed direction before he died. There's no $$ in jazz-rock
I've only recently discovered proper Chicago. I grew up with insipid 80's Chicago, and it was not for me. Terry Kath, on the other hand, I feel like y'all was hidin' him from me!
There is no comparison between this era of music performance compared with today. Music used to be raw and REAL with talented and skilled musicians and vocalists. That's how it should always be. I'm so sad today's youth could not experience this in person.
Word
Exactly. 9/11 concert is perfect example the who blew everyone else off the stage and no know remembers who else was performing without looking it up. Live version 5:15 2002 concert entwhistle shreds and I mean shreds his bass proves he was greatest bassist of all time. Artists today rely too much on lip synching and machines for their sound. Bands used to build their fan base by live concerts not anymore
i'm sad i couldnt experience this either. i would have been there in that crowd cheering after for sure if I could have lol
No way. Go see Tool or Meshuggah or Queens of the Stone Age or Living Colour. Thats real music as good or better than what we had in the 70s. You’re just stuck on today’s radio and the bands shoved down ppls throats, which are crap.
@@L33Reacts if you want real music today i suggest Joe Bonamassa ,Beth Hart or Greta Van Fleet
Danny Saraphine is so underrated it's hurtful.
When fucking music meant something! R.I.P. Terry 🎸🎸🎸🕊🕊🕊😎
i agree jeff. RIP.
"I'm a Man" was co-written by Stevie Winwood when he was with the Spencer Davis Group...he also wrote "Gimme Some Lovin" as well...
Anything recorded at Tanglewood is going to be special.
Tanglewood is a great venue for concerts in a idyllic area of western Massachusetts. Right up there with Red Rocks
Especially when Chicago records it.
Now that’s a band !
Anything pre Terry Kath passing away was the best of chicago and lots of the music out then. ( and there was so much amazing music then) oh what a time to be alive in 60s 70s!!!❤❤❤❤
Didn't we have us a time!
I was born in 1956 and I'm glad I grew up with this fantastic music. 🎶🎶🎶
1957 here, but my big bro was 53 and had us both rocking back then. On our little portable record player…blasting!
Me too was born in 1956 ,for me is The 50,60 70,s the best music but I listen to music from the 40 to 80,s
I like Spencer Davis Group’s version with Stevie Windwood singing and playing keyboard too.
i'll have to check that one out! i love steve!
@L33Reacts 'I'm a Man' was Steve Winwood's first big hit with the Spencer Davis Group. Steve wrote Im a Man.. I think he was 15 years old at the time. Chicago's version is a cover of Steve's original. A dope one fir sure!
Every time I start watching this Tanglewood performance, I inevitably end up watching the whole thing. No screwy lights, no weird background, just an awesome group of musicians playing their asses off from beginning to end. Two minutes longer and you would have seen Bill Graham trying to appease the audience by telling them where they're playing next. 🤠👍👍👍👍👍
Yeah, we definitely need to see more early Chicago immediately on the channel. This entire performance at Tanglewood is classic. Terry is a legend, hell, the whole band is legend. Thanks Robert K and Lee. 😃
i agree barry. they are always a rollercoaster. this tanglewood show is iconic as hell lol
Terry Kath! Amazing! Gone too soon!❤
Not only was Terry great at singing and playing at the same time, but he played lead guitar and rhythm guitar in the same song, going back and forth. And he didn’t just play adequately, he absolutely shredded on lead guitar and showed unmatched speed on rhythm guitar. In my opinion, he was the greatest rock guitarist ever.
When you watch Terry, he was self taught in guitar, didn't like lessons, so had his own technique and strums down, not up and down when playing!! Couldn't read music, played by ear!
Swear he was sent by Guitar Gods to make our world SO much better 🙏!!! RIP we'll never forget you😮
They played at my HS in NJ on this tour in February 1970. Imagine seeing these guys in your HS gym! Mind blown. We paid them $5k(1970 dollars) to come and play on their tour. And they came!
GET OUT!
Danny and Terry.This is why I liked Chicago... and why I haven't listened to any of their stuff from the last 40 years
i hear yah bro.. this is special. this is that once in a lifetime kinda stuff right here lol
You must be an old rocker, and i hear what your saying. But you're in a minority if you haven't listened to Chicago since, They always had a large following
@@TheCybertiger9 yeah but their 80's music is pure trash, when they became Air SuppIy
As Modern Drummer noted in a 1979 article, Danny was the epitome of taste and technique. He really made the drums SING.
I love how Terry uses the feedback as part of his sound.
Danny is fantastic
The late 60's and 70's was my era!!! The good old days when there was just instruments and REALLY talented musicians.
Saw these guys open for Jimi Hendrix in Charlotte NC In 69. What a great concert.
Saw them in '74 with the Doobie Brothers and Lynard Skynard. What a day that was.
geez what a line up. thats crazy lol
Quite the line up!
Chicago was chicago transit authority until the chicago transit authority complained on using their name for the band, so shortened to just chicago Lee. This band was so amazing.
Yes I remember the original name!
Grew up listening to this band!❤
Incredible!!
Chicago make me smile
It was Hendrix who said to “ask Terry” these were The Masters, Period.
absolutely. they are the definitive article.
Terry Kath was a PHENOMENAL Guitarist. Miss him❤❤
Great live perfermance.
I saw this band in the winter 1970 in a 3000 seat venue in Burrus Hall at VA Tech. They went by the name of CTA.
It was my first REAL concert and it only cost $7. The performance was phenomenal, especially when the horns played. I think there were 5 or 6. This led to a bunch more concerts at Tech....... And I was hooked. Times have changed.
I left my lunch to dance and give this band a standing 👏🏼. What s fabulous performance.
Would have loved to be in that room. Some of the best live music I've ever heard. RIP Terry
That's what I call an encore.
Chicago had so many slick pop songs and mellow ballads, it's easy sometimes to forget they were also a real rock band too, and this video showcases that side to them perfectly.
yeah this was pure adrenaline! These guys were super varied... but i think terry had a lot to do with it being like this. the stuff I have heard from them is different without him...
As Lee, said, what a great way to start the morning!
since the yes video got blocked i just bumped it to first chair. and it was worth it! what a show.
I love 'Make Me Smile.' 😊❤
Incredible stuff!
Terry Kath and when rhey ROCKED!
GOD BLESS TERRY KATH!!! STILL miss him, to this day!! Would've LOVED to have seen what he put out, had he lived....RIP, TERRY!!! THANKS for the reaction, Lee! :) HUGS!
Glad you enjoyed, Jude! I love this band. I wish Terry was still here so bad 😪
@@L33Reacts OH, GOSH, HON: DON'T WE ALL!! :) LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!! It's great to see such a varied range of music!! TAKE CARE!! :) HUGS!
@@L33Reacts SAME...still wonder about his passing...so tragic....UGH!! Hope you are having a great week!! 🩷🩷🩷
This was their cover of a Spencer Davis Group tune. Being from Cleveland, Ohio, I got to see them in concert twice.
The first song from their first album, "Introduction", set the blueprint for every musical style they'd use for the next 50 years. It's pretty varied and epic.
I first saw Chicago play in Houston in 1973. The ticket cost $5.50. But, that was a lot since minimum wage was $1.80. Being a trombone player myself, my buddies and I were not about to miss it. It was great. Opening act was Fanny, all girl rock band. I saw Chicago 3 more times before Terry Kath died. Excellent concerts all!
"It Better End Soon" from the Tanglewood concert is well worth a listen. Great flute solo by Walt, and Terry does a solo, voice and guitar. Oh yeah!
Check out the original by Spencer Davis.
Terry was gifted. That version of Chicago was exceptionally stellar. Chicago Transit Authority. Love them.
Back when there was real music by real musicians- this was the best Chicago
You talk about a moment in Rock & Roll history! 🔥🔥🔥 "Make Me Smile" from this concert" is an absolute MUST! 🔥
i will add that one to the list! thank you.
For you as a drummer it might be interesting that the drummer of the original version by Soencer Davis Group, Pete York - is a great drummer, too. After playing with Spencer Davis Group he was part of the well known duo Hardin & York and in the late 80ies he hada show on German TV called Superdrumming where he invited several drummers with different styles. You can find it here on youtube.
You got this one right Lee; that IS, how you fucking DO IT! 😅
I love the trombone player (playing the cowbell in this song). He is always into the music big time!
James Pankow! He is so into it!
He wrote Make Me Smile and Color My World.
This concert is incredible and that percussion break is fantastic! Actually started following you because I loved your reaction to 25 or 6 to 4. Early Chicago was the best!
wow that is so cool! well, i'm glad we finally returned to this amazing show. these guys were the realest of deals. i love it.
@@L33ReactsReal is the word, Lee!
So cool that you get so much of this music! You are appreciated!
thank you for that sue. i appreciate it
Have you done "Introduction" off the debut? Written by Kath, but showing the full range of what they were doing at the time.
"The Introduction off the first album probably has the most recognizable odd time part that starts off in 4/4, the goes to 3/4, then goes to 19/8, then back to 4/4." - Drummer Danny Seraphine
Bass is Peter Cetera.
Keys is Robert Lamm.
A cover of The Soencer Davis Group with Steve Wineood on vocajs and organ. Co-written by Steve and producer Jimmy Miller and rekeased on January 1967 when Steve was still 18.
There is yet another side of Chicago which is sappy love songs.
I remember reading that Terry was one of Jimi Hendrix' favorite guitarists. They might have even been personal friends?
It was so Wonderful to see you SO INTO this song/performance!!!!! I love it!!!!
One of my favorite performances all time.
The chorus for this has been playing in my head since I learned it was in the schedule today. : )
Think i've seen this band more times than any other from late 60s thru 70s.
I saw the last Chicago tour just before Terry Kath died . It was 4 and half hour show with no opening act and it was incredible . I'm 63 now but I was a 17 year old kid a the time . I was very fortunate because my aunt and uncle had an incredible music collection and they led me down the right path . YES , CCR , The Allman brothers , Elton John , Janis Joplin , Carol King , The Animals and of course Chicago . That Chicago concert beyond incredible and it taught me who were the go-alongs in music at high school and who were the real deep music lovers . I saw Aerosmith 5 times in high school and I loved them back then . I was even at the Rocks concert that they recorded Dream On for their Bootleg live album and the TEXXAS JAM show and two more times . I really love music and that Chicago show really sticks in my mind ( SUCH TALENT in that band ) . I feel blessed with all the incredible shows I've seen . Take it from me ... don't let you life just go by MAKE IT COUNT AND DO WHAT YOU LOVE ! PK
Loved Chicago when they came out. I grew up in the 60 s and 70 s. Absolutely loved the music then. So creative, such talent, so many good garage bands out of Chicago too. They influenced bands all across America. You would have loved this music era. I have the best memories from that time - and I still enjoy listening to my favorite songs from 1000 s of different artists.
Terry was a phenominal guitarist!!!! Loved their rock side over love songs. As a teen I liked the love songs when they came out. Just don't tell anyone.
your secret is safe with me.
Old school rock back when. Good tune.
Keyboardist Robert Lamm wrote the bulk of early Chicago songs. Because he sometimes felt his creativity was suppressed being in a band, he released solo albums at times, all though not being commercially successful. it satisfied his yearnings
That whole concert is fire 🔥
i agree. the two songs i've seen have been iconic.
Saw them at Saratoga Performing Arts Center summer, 71 and they killed. It was like this concert at Tanglewood. So good!
Nothing like the original Chicago line up! Nothing!! I wish they were all still together and Terry Kath alive. If they were I'd still be buying their records.
This was early Chicago Transit Authority. They dropped the long name later.
It's from Tanglewood Music Shed, Lenox, MA. The concerts were put on by Bill Graham. He also booked Jethro Tull and The Who at this venue. Fantastic concerts!
54 yrs ago
Saw the current lineup last year. Drummer was celebrating his 63rd YEAR with the band
Corrected.... Sort of. Danny isn't the percussionist. Other dude started professionally 63 yrs ago with Sergio Mendez and Aretha Franklin.
63rd year in music
Those guys were having FUN!!!!!!!
Terry Kath fantastic guitarist - Too bad he's gone. Chicago's first lineup was excellent.
Terry Kath, Jimmy Hendrix said Terry Kath was his favorite guitarist
My first concert.
Early Chicago with Terry Kath was the best!
During Danny's drum solo:
Lee Loughnane: trumpeter playing wood block.
Walter Parazaider: saxophonist playing tambourine.
James Pankow trombonist on the cowbell.
Robert Lamm: Keyboardist on the maracas.
Peter Cetera: Triangle?
Terry Kath: On guitar, but deadening the strings to give it a muted, scratchy sound.
Thanks! 🙂
Watch the whole concert. It is on TH-cam.
Tanglewood is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra but it has always made room for popular music. There were some memorable concerts there post-Woodstock, J. Airplane, The Who, Santana. Exceptional acoustics. This one was notable for, among other things, the cowbell solo. Jimi Hendrix was a big Chicago fan, Terry in particular ("He's better than me") and wanted to form a collaboration - Terry and Jimi blasting back and forth, Danny and Mitch Mitchell on drums. It was not to be. Tanglewood is in Lenox MA, the Berkshires. A beautiful spot. Lenox is four square blocks of upscale shops, farms, and Tanglewood. And a celebrity psych unit/rehab where James Taylor dried out from heroin. Allegedly Keith Richards tried to be admitted but they told him "Nah, you're too messed up, we can't help you." So the story goes
James Pankow was playing the cowbell the entire song (and shimmying the whole time too).
Chicago does the quintessential version for sure.
Oh wow…Terry Kath….even Hendrix held him in awe!!!!
I can't even put into words how phenomenal these guys were back then. The songwriting, the vocals, the musicianship of everyone in the band, the soul, the energy... Just incredible. What I wouldn't give to be able to go back in time and see one of these early performances.
I've loved Chicago since the first day I heard them with the release of their first album. I'm a drummer and would play along to all of their songs. I wasn't great, but I was pretty good, and had so much effintastic fun.
I loved watching the smile stay on your face the whole time this tune was playing. Me too brother. This band just hits just right. Especially these early years. RIP Terry. (Can't help but think he and Chris Squire are hanging and jamming somewhere...) Love the channel. Your dedication is apparent. 😎🌱🙏
🎶🔥Pure Musical FIRE!🔥 🎶
It was good for me too !
This is a cover I’m a man is from the British band the Spencer Davis Group
Chicago was my first concert, saw them on this tour a few days before Tanglewood at Saratoga Performing Arts Center. I was twelve, bought my own ticket and went alone. Blew my mind. 😍
One of the best live performances. They are always so great live even today!
Yep thats how it's done. So freakin good.
Three first rate singers in one group
Chicago in the late 60s and most of the 70s were absolutely in a class of their own. Their debut album "Chicago Transit Authority" is one of the few double albums where you can drop the stylus needle anywhere on either album and hit an amazing tune!!! 😀
This is one of the only songs in Chicago's early reportoire that was a cover. "I'm A Man" was originally the Spencer Davis Group featuring Steve Winwood on keys and vocals. They wrote some great songs and did very few by other writers. They tended to use this as an encore in those days after the brass section was more or less played out.
Their first album was killer! So unique for the time!
I saw them at the first Atlanta Pop Festival, July 4th, 1969. Amazing!
I still have that first LP and the CD in the car. Thanks Lee!
What’s missing now a days is music.
i agree.... its all nonsense these days or the same album for 14th time. it's the worst lol there are pockets of good music still but you have to dig to find them.
You should listen to the song 25 or 6 to 4. Terry Kath just goes off and is sensational what a solo.. The whole band is on fire though.
Saw them with The Beach Boys Anaheim Stadium, 75ish...oooo we almost broke the place. So much fun when they played together. ❤😊
Great reaction, great live band! May I suggest the first cut from their first album “Introduction”. As the title says it gives an intro to just what this band is all about. Keep up the great reactions!
CTA was one of my first concerts, these guys played the same year at a high school in NJ where we saw them, great great show.
i bet that was a helluva show, mark. i wish i could have seen them like this!!
A Spencer Davis Group cover - Steve Winwood.
South California Purples from Chicago Transit Authority album is an overlooked song. Terry Kath guitar is amazing.
“I’m A Man” was originally released by the Spencer Davis Group with the immortal Steve Winwood singing and playing guitar and keyboards in the group. They also had a song “Gimme Some Lovin” that is still played in movies and commercials influencing our culture. Thanks to Chicago who was keeping it alive with some extra pizazz on it.
Nancy Didn't the yard birds also do this song ?
