@@Michael_Tready I'm quite convinced he could easily darken his sound, it's all in the technique, and its not all that hard of a fix once you get used to switching back and forth.
Anyone else who plays trombone ever watch these videos and know for a fact that if you matched these movements and positions you would get nowhere near the same sound or effect? Lol. This was one of my favorite songs to play for jazz band in high school. Wonderful rendition daddy bone
I played this for marching season in ninth grade and this brought back many happy memories because it reminded me of when I asked out my girlfriend after marching assessment and we’ve been together for almost 4 years
I am a trumpet player. As a brass man many trombone lines over the years get tossed to me because I can scream on a bone. Now, after reaching 60, the higher register is harder to achieve. I have to do a LOT of physical training. That has put me on a quest to be not only a screech trumpet Maynard kind of guy but a screech trombone man. Your videos have invigorated an old man!!! Training hard, practicing hard, still trying to achieve.
I just discovered you today,( The Bohemian Rhapsody viD), but now I am addicted to your page. I'm a 63 year old bass player, and have always loved the brass sound and was in Dance Band back in High School in the 70's. I still love Big Band Music, But now, I thing I want to learn the trombone!
DUDE....freakin' amazing!! Chicago is my favorite music group! I thoroughly enjoyed this performance! You have amazing talent!! I'm also a Trombonist, go T-Bones!!!
Three of the seniors in my band used to always play the bass line and because I had played it in jazz band I'd jump in with the melody. I'm gonna miss getting to play this at football games with them.
It’s sad, because I just graduated middle school, and with that I left all of my 7th grade friends. I miss them already, and it’s only been one day. The last song we played as a jazz band was Seven Nation Army. I loved to play 25 or 6 to 4 with them. But on the bright side I’m going to high school, and reuniting with my 8th grade friends I made in 7th grade. And in my 10th grade year, all of us will be together again. But saying goodbye was so difficult yesterday, we all cried in one big circle. I love my band family.
That sounds great!! Mind you, I am 64 years old. I was 9 years old when Chicago first became the band, the New Thing. The first time I heard 25 or 6 to 4, I was only 11 years old. You killed it!! You got my thumbs up. You got the talented young man!!
Came here because of Alex and am now a fan of you & Jason as well. Instant sub. Also, there are apparently eight people that need some Jimmy Pankow in their lives.
You know if you added the vocal part to this and I just walked in on it I would probably not be able to tell the difference between it and Chicago. I think I would have to pause and listen to realize it wasn't them. Simply AMAZING!
Love this, I was in Our Hi School Jazz Band back in 1975, this was one of our favorite songs 🎵 that we played. All thou I was never First Chair Trombone.
Dude- just learning the trombone after years of wanting to and an avid CHicago fan, and you are my hero!!! uSING THE TROMBONE TO REPLACE THE TRUMPET, AND GUITAR SOUND is KILLER
I had a different tab open but when the solo came on I switched back to this tab to see what I thought was a guitar but it was a trombone and as a trombone player I gotta say thats pretty cool
Incredible! One of the most beloved Chicago songs never sounded so fresh and hip. Love the addition of Jason on drums and the impeccable Alex Iles on t-bone guitar!
Super specific, but... I really love the way you phrase any time you have repeated 16ths, the way you push to the next beat. First noticed it in your Duel of the Fates video, and its great here, too. Thanks for all the work it must take to put these together!
I've watched this I don't know how many times after a third-degree association made the algorithm introduce me to this song via your version - and this is the FIRST time I've noticed that you play the raw trombone solo without distortion behind your outro. Very interesting to hear both. Gives some insight into the post-processing (sorry, "mixing").
Outstanding Christopher!! and Alex!..... ok and Jason too. Loved your Master Class, performance and arrangements at the 1st annual Possum Trot Trombone Gala tonight. Don't let the road get to you.
Jean-Luc Rene Soto Pintor he wasn't saying it sounded bad, just that it was a boring part, which as I'm sure you know is required in some songs for everything else to sound good
Thank you for posting the video on time. To check your new video on TH-cam every Saturday has been one of my habits. This is gorgeous! I just wondered how could Alex played the trombone a sound like electric guitar? So magical!
That was fantastic! I just happened to see Chicago live this past week, and was thinking of you when they played this, so thank you so much for making this video happen!
These are trombones, trombones!!. It seems that stings always get top billing. Knowing that it is possible for trombones to do this i started wondering what other songs and movie scores would sound like with trombones as the lead instrument.
I haven't left a comment about it before. but man, your album is killer. I can't get over how much I love places unknown! keep it up man 😁
Seth Cross RIGHT!
Seth Cross bro FUNNIEST thing is I played that same song this year and my class won K.m.e.a and state
Seth Cross Power Down is where it's at!
For me it's I Can't Lie, even though I'm in love with all of them really
Proof that TH-cam needs a 'love' button in addition to the thumbs up.
closest thing I have to that is a favorites playlist
True that!
That's such a crazy tone in that solo, it sounds like a guitar with distortion
they had the mic run through an amp that had distortion put on it
Distorted bone shredding is sick! Love this cover, your octaves sound so clean!
Two years and all, but... _"distorted bone shredding"_
This guy has a better trumpet sound than me and he isn't even playing trumpet
Bruh ikr
He just has a bright sound. It's good for jazz but not orchestra
@@Michael_Tready I'm quite convinced he could easily darken his sound, it's all in the technique, and its not all that hard of a fix once you get used to switching back and forth.
@@jacksonpalmer8955 of course but in this song his sound is very bright
How many hours do you play per day?
Christopher Bill: Yes
Anyone else who plays trombone ever watch these videos and know for a fact that if you matched these movements and positions you would get nowhere near the same sound or effect? Lol. This was one of my favorite songs to play for jazz band in high school. Wonderful rendition daddy bone
Christopher Rohn yes
Damn...who knew trombone could sound so cool?
Props to the drummer. That is not an easy drum part and he crushed it.
How in the world... I am loving how the solo sounds like a guitar - awesome!
I bet he used a Guitar amp or pedal board. I've always wondered what it would sound like.
CaptainApathetic he's a using a mute called a buzz mute
jmr stuff interesting never heard of that one
Cornell & Sam it could be a high end practice mute that allows to be connected via a device for effects and recording and such
@@youtubemr14 There is no mute though. CaptainApathetic is right
As a hack ‘bone player, all I can say is this guy is stupendously amazing! Just WOW!
Woot! Finally! So well done too. Props to drum and "guitar" too. Great job by both. I'm really psyched about this one!
Me too!!!!

That electric guitar solo on trombone was sick! Great work
3:50. Holy mother of jesus that is amazing
wow. the drummer was brilliant!
Shows how stupendous the original is. AMAZING
That final hit on the crash, with the stick spinning away :D
Loving the whole thing. Great cover, well done, Chris and friends !
No way! I suggested this. Thanks Bill 😘
Why

Wow man! That solo. Starting off with those amazing trills at 2:15. Crazy good.
seeing this brings back memories of high school jazz band :')
Sean Navenma yes, my band played it my freshman year and it was my favorite, that was the best year ever too, so many memories
untaaka I played this in middle school
It’s sad, because I just graduated middle school, and with that I left all of my 7th grade friends. I miss them already, and it’s only been one day.

This was a stands tune for my marching band two years ago, I love it! Great execution
One of my favorite songs to play in pep band back in the day
Love this, I was in Our Hi School Jazz Band back in 1975, this was one of our favorite songs 🎵 that we played. All thou I was never First Chair Trombone.
Check it out at 4:11 the drummer break his stick just before it fades to black! Great song. Had the album when it first came out!
One of my favorite songs of all time, great arrangement!
Thanks for playing the "long" version. The radio edit never did this justice. Glad they invented the "long playing" record during my lifetime. (
I had this song in high school and some of my underclassmen trumpets couldn't play that high. So much fun to play in all octaves!
Dude- just learning the trombone after years of wanting to and an avid CHicago fan, and you are my hero!!! uSING THE TROMBONE TO REPLACE THE TRUMPET, AND GUITAR SOUND is KILLER
Played this in sixth grade for jazz band. Loved it!
I can’t stop watching this. Absolutely amazing! Bravo!!
One of my all time favorite songs!
Great video
👍👍👍
This is my favorite song ive ever played on trombone. I look forward to it every year in pep band
I had a different tab open but when the solo came on I switched back to this tab to see what I thought was a guitar but it was a trombone and as a trombone player I gotta say thats pretty cool
Incredible! One of the most beloved Chicago songs never sounded so fresh and hip. Love the addition of Jason on drums and the impeccable Alex Iles on t-bone guitar!
This song is my favorite song I've ever played in my school's jazz band. I love this so much
Another good song from one of the best
Daniel Dyer doc, is that you?
Super specific, but... I really love the way you phrase any time you have repeated 16ths, the way you push to the next beat. First noticed it in your Duel of the Fates video, and its great here, too. Thanks for all the work it must take to put these together!
As an old timer and huge Chicago fan YOU MUST PLAY MORE OF CHICAGO! This was an AWESOME VIDEO! They would be proud of this cover!!! :-)
Im trying out for jazz band and this song is helping me learn how to play it this is help

Played this for high school jazz and we won gold with it, such a beautiful song, you guys killed it!
Bro such a good song I remember playing this for jazz band in 7th grade
I remember playing this in highschool marching band. One of my favorites.
One of favorite Chicago songs.
Outstanding Christopher!! and Alex!..... ok and Jason too. Loved your Master Class, performance and arrangements at the 1st annual Possum Trot Trombone Gala tonight. Don't let the road get to you.
dude. this is incredible
I enjoy coming back to this video to relax myself and calm down after a stressing day. Also gets me more excited to continue playing trombone !
I've been waiting for this since 2014
The guy at 1:58 did so good at making his trombone sound like an electric guitar
My Jazz Band at my school played this song, I played the trombone for it. I really liked it.
Same
The bass bone part sounds like a tonguing exercise
lol, now that was mean :(
And you can do better, son? If so...post a video of yourself playing.
Jean-Luc Rene Soto Pintor he wasn't saying it sounded bad, just that it was a boring part, which as I'm sure you know is required in some songs for everything else to sound good
It actually sounds pretty good by it self, you just don't hear the good parts(trust me, I've played it)
@@Gavin-cd8gd Kind of like the bun on a cheeseburger. Pretty boring on its own, but an integral part nonetheless.
How is it possible that this has less than a million views?
One of my favorite songs of all time. Well done.
Cant say I Could ever be prouder.
OMG, Alex man, just awesome. wore the groove out replaying it over and over.
Thank you for posting the video on time. To check your new video on TH-cam every Saturday has been one of my habits. This is gorgeous! I just wondered how could Alex played the trombone a sound like electric guitar? So magical!
Youre the best trombone Player i've ever Seen😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 legend
Props to the drummer. Dude kills it.
A classic 70's song. Well done!
Alex Iles is a maniac on the trombone!
This is such a fun marching band song

Man this takes me back to middle school and high school marching band
Wow what a brilliant version!
Crazy guitar sound and everything fit in the groove! I'm glad I bumped into your vids.

Awesomely creative!

These are trombones, trombones!!. It seems that stings always get top billing. Knowing that it is possible for trombones to do this i started wondering what other songs and movie scores would sound like with trombones as the lead instrument.
Omg the solo😍😍😍😍
Props to the Soloist! Love it!

AWESOME JOB GUYS!!!!
Lovely job
Hyped to play this again in stand tunes, during mb season
