Love Dawayne Bailey style of playing. He's a talented guitar player, and really made great guitar soloing. Just what the band needed at the time, a gunslinger from the late 80's.
Dawayne was great, all around! Very much especially love this gig. Jason never sounded or looked better. yummy! Danny looks SO good & is the Master of those drums Bill's soulful voice & such a multi-talented man. They should have not kicked Dawayne, Danny & Bill out. All those great voices took the pressure & strain off Jason and let him shine. One of many bad business personnel changes made out of ego & Lord knows what craziness.
I seen him live with Chicago in 88 live at the universal amphitheater with Danny Seraphine still in the band, I was in elementary school, my 1st live pro concert, it was life changing, but the only part of the concert I didn’t really like, even at that age was Bailey’s solos, he way over played & was doing the 80’s shredder thing & I felt even then that he didn’t fit in with Chicago, but I will say the solos that he didn’t over play on at that show were great.
私が高2の時に何回見たか分からない、テープが擦り切れるほどみたLiveです。 35年ぶりに見てあの頃の思い出と共に全ての映像と音楽が甦り涙が止まりません。 will you still love meで大ファンになり、初期の頃からのLPを買い漁りジャケットを部屋に飾ってた事を最近の事のように思い出しました。 Live映像ありがとございました。
Ok , so I have read many negative comments for a while regarding Chicago’s personnel changes pro’s & con’s . Common sense , nothing is as good as the original. Terry Kath is hard to replace, a raw talent. Peter Cetera is also a great talent. But my take on what the band had been able to do over the years in trying to replace that talent IMO has been very good, especially Jason and Bill . They have stepped in and have done more than an adequate job. This has enabled Chicago to continue to tour and entertain their fans . My hat is off to them .
and the way Bill was let go and then they acted as if he was never there not all of them just a few of the founding members treated Bill like the hired help instead of a legit member

Man oh man, I never got to see Dawayne Bailey play live with Chicago, thanks to being in the Navy; I missed that whole time he was with the band; I saw them in concert just months before he joined, and just some months after he'd departed, darn it, wow what an amazing talent!
This is the Chicago lineup I seen live in 1988, the 1st concert I ever attended, I was 12 years old, it was at the universal amphitheater. Danny Seraphine was behind the kit & it was life changing! Thank you Chicago!
+Tank Franz I was at that show! That was the first time I ever saw them too. If I remember it was the first tour with Jason Scheff and they opened with that new version of 25 or 6 to 4 from 18 and did the original version in the encore. What a show!
+Gene Murrell sounds like a great show, but we attended a differnt show, the 1st track they played at the show I attended was look away, it was their big hit at the time & the 3rd track they played live was stay the night, which was sung by sheff & it was the Chicago 19 tour, so it was Jason's 2nd tour with the band, Chicago 18 was Jason Sheff's 1st tour & I heard he wore cowboy boots on that 1st tour:)
+Tank Franz you are right. I was at that show too. I saw both the 18 and 19 tours at Universal. they did open with Look Away and I remember the stage was very bright and colorful. very very cool
1988 was my first Chicago concert as well. Portland, Oregon. They put on a great show and Danny was still on percussion. The next time I saw them in 1990, I didn't see Danny and it wasn't until a year later that I found out that he'd been fired a few months before that 1990 concert that I went to. I was bummed, another original member left.
They fired Danny shortly after this, despite the "blood oath" that no one could be fired, ever.. His playing is better than any future drummers they hired. Robert Lamm said he wouldn't have fired Danny if he had to do it all again. Danny saved this band millions of dollars, and got the band 49% of the publishing (as opposed to 0%; all went to Guercio), and he wasn't a primary writer, so this was going to help (mostly) the other guys... I just saw Danny play with CTA, and my gosh... just watch any video on UA-cam. I'm a drummer, and can't imagine being that great in my mid-70s.
I was there! Very good memory. Thank you for sharing. Since Dawayne Bailey has left, I realized he has great talent not only metallic guitar play. Might be little late, "STONE OF SISYPHUS" is my favorite.
I'm from Corpus Christi, Tx. and I saw them 4 times before 1976 came around and I miss the old Chicago. Nobody could ever replace Terry Kath and Peter Cetera.
Thank you for uploading the precious video. I've been a big fan of Chicago, and whCen they came to Tokyo, I was around 19 years old university student, and I was there with my friend to fully enjoy their great songs. I've never thought of having an opportunity to experience the same moment on the net. Thanks a lot, again. いや、最高ですね、まさか私が10代の頃に見た武道館のライブを見ることができるなんて考えても見ませんでした。当時はToToとChicagoのぞっこんでした。池袋のBicCameraに通っていた時代でした。
Dave Norman - have to agree with you. I grew up with 70s Chi, first tour I saw as a kid was Chi Vii, back in '74. Never be anything like 70s Chicago, but I have come to appreciate that the 80s stuff was also good.
Saw this line up in London....amazing!!!! Bill Champlins voice and De Wayne....transformed this amazing band onto another level.....one of the best gigs ever.....
+Dreaming in Stereo There is a bittersweet chapter in Danny's book about the hair transplants and the toupee. He liked the way it looked on him, but it was a huge pain for him to deal with. He had to cope with secretly transporting his hair pieces, having them washed and styled, and using the right kind of adhesives for each situation. Can you imagine sweating and playing the drums in a rock band while wearing a hair piece? They were playing outdoors when a huge storm blew in and flipped the toupee up. He was holding it to his head and drumming with the other hand, and then he got up and ran off the stage just before their stage equipment collapsed--right onto his drum set! He would have been killed if he hadn't run off because of the toupee--he calls it the toupee that saved his life. I think there should be a special place in Heaven for young men who went bald in the "hair-centric" 70's. Nowadays, so many guys including musicians shave their heads, and nobody thinks anything of it.
I was there - A dirt racetrack, 30 days into a drought. Lincoln NE. Beach Boys played set. We were 20 feet from stage. Chicago comes out, 3 songs in...BOOM talk about thunder and lightning - end of drought. stage collapsed. farmers getting $20 to tow cars out of the mud, i think i peed on somedody under a semi. Slept in some chick's plaid something that night, everything i owned was mud caked. next day, went to college world series in Omaha.. oh the consulting days
@@cynthiariordan1046 " I think there should be a special place in Heaven for young men who went bald in the "hair-centric" 70's. Nowadays, so many guys including musicians shave their heads, and nobody thinks anything of it." No one says anything , but everyone thinks it, "what's up with the bald head dude??" Don't rationalize it.
Watched the Tanglewood 1970 concert immediately before cherry picking through this, and I have to say ...... whilst the original line up and early 70's material and in concert vibe is utterly matchless, this concert, within an 80's overcoat, is just as valid ..... I think it's unfair to compare the various later members unfavourably. They are clearly talented musicians, and Jason Scheff's bass playing at the end of Danny Seraphine's solo (interesting to hear him doing a Neil Peart / Bill Bruford with the sample pads !) is fantastic - what a musician ! At the end of the day, it's not their fault that music tastes and what would sell changed ..... they simply tried to stay with the game, and all credit for that.
I agree totally, Dave. This incredible band kept it together and moved on, which is more than you can say about the detractors trashing this video and Chicago's post 70's career because Pete left or Terry died. My question to the malcontents is if these replacements are so bad, why did Chicago vote them into the band? What, your musical heros have tin ears, don't know talent? You gonna tell Robert Lamm, James Pankow and the rest that their replacements really suck? There is so much to still love about this band...
thanks for the info now my confusions were answered :)) cos everytime i search for chicago band, there's always two bands named chicago with different members appear ,, good to know
Dave Norman Well said Dave, especially when people bag DaWayne's playing, yes it's very different to Kath's but that's the point, they wanted him to be currant (1980's) and also be himself, sure like Kath he would let his emotions get the better of him and sometimes 'over play' but he is great on this concert, you can't really compare the 69,70's Chicago with the 80's Chicago if they stayed the same I honestly think they would've lost their record contract, of course this is if they got someone like Kath, anyhow I love both versions, I can also understand the argument that the 80's should've had more horn parts.
@@michaelwright664 Sure, musical tastes change, and if the band had continued to tour and primarily perform the stuff the new lineup had recorded together, nobody would bat an eye. But they didn't do that. Their concerts have been almost all stuff recorded in the first 17 albums. I remember seeing a Chicago 18 era TV appearance, and they performed 25 or 6 to 4, and not the Chicago 18 version but the Chicago 2 version!!!!! Apparently musical tastes hadn't changed very much in terms of what they want to hear from Chicago. You can't have it both ways, picking musicians with a new sound who can't play the old stuff right and yet keep playing all the old stuff almost exclusively. It has gotten worse over the years until now they are a glorified tribute band.
Nice to see We Can Stop the Hurting. They should play that more, as well as If She Would Have Been Faithful and hits from 18 (Niagara Falls, Forever, Nothing's Gonna Stop) and more hits from 21 (Explain, God Save, Chasin', etc.). Even We Can Last Forever from 19 and Heart in Pieces (also from that album).
Ha! He sounds alot like Peter in a sort of tenor spot that back in that day when I busy raising children in the early 80's that I thought it was Peter lol. .you have to remember back then we did not have any of this!!!
Walt, lovong that flute solo on Just You N Me. I saw you guys in September 1988 and remembered you guys did Canon seguing into Just You n Me, just as you did at this concert, love that transition.
Wow, long-haired Jason Scheff...I'm in love!!!! 1980s hair Chicago just seems so strange to me. And opening with "Along Comes A Woman," that doesn't happen anymore!
Thanks for sharing - my first time to view this concert with new members and still long hair bar Robert. Saw them at The Forum last July 18th with Earth Wind and Fire and they all sang and played great as ever and even more exciting after 46 yrs.
Great concert ! This was a time when bands played songs from current albums. Oh I guess albums are a thing of the past too. Millennials have sure missed out.
Gotta love Dawayne's solo on 25 or 6 to 4. A bit busy in spots, but I like the way he incorporates Terry Kath's original licks into his interpretation. Nicely done. And Seraphine proves he's in the same class as Jeff Porcaro even as his exit from the band is lurking in the shadows. While I am a big fan of Keith Howland and Tris Imboden, these guys really play their butts off in this concert.
Thank you!! This was such an awesome show. It's the best band they had since the original members!! I know Terry isn't there but D'Wayne was the first guitarist to actually show some chops!! And Jason.... my appreciation runs so deep for him... he might not be a better singer than Pete... but it's close... and he's a far better bass player... his dad's really good too!!
Dwayne Bailey without question the 2nd best lead guitar Chicago put on the floor. Actually the 9 years he was in the band rivals any time period as my favorite Chicago years. Pete Cetera hurt the group when he left , or ousted , whoever you listen to. But Jason Schep proved to be a huge talent and class act. Bill Chapman was great too. With Bailey , Schep and Chapman that was the best lineup by far except for the original cast
Cetera didn't quit. The band/management forced his hand. They agreed first he could record a solo album and spend time with his new born daughter but they reneged on their promise and told Cetera if you can't record (Chicago 18)and tour we'll look elsewhere for a bass player " in an assumption Cetera would fold and surrender the requests he made that they agreed to FIRST. Cetera shocked them by saying "I guess it's time you got a new bass player". It was Not the response they expected from him.😮😮😮
@@LisaGemini Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald were considered in the running for the original spot as the lead singer of TOTO. Thank God David Paich and Jeff Porcaro chose Bobby Kimball. "Hold the line" their first single was so right on spot with Kimballs vocals.
Too bad they don't play a set list like this anymore, the best of the 70's and 80's. They have been basically playing the same tired set list for the last 15 years. They act as if Hard Habit and Inspiration were the only decent songs they released in the 80's. It's a shame, especially for fans who deeply admire and enjoy both eras.
TruthHurts58 What gets me is how disrespectful it is to Jason. He had a good run of at least two or three hits, but these days he spends his time singing nothing but Peter Cetera songs every night. Surely they can find room to let him have one song of his own.
TruthHurts58 totally agree with you, Chicago are even worse now that they have a lead singer who doesn't even play Bass and they also lost their drummer
Most of the classic bands are in the same boat now. Their creative process has long burned out but they still need to make a living. Especially in this digital age where the royalties have been vaporized. But a lot of fans still love hearing this stuff in person so they'll always have a financial avenue
There's so much David Foster era garbage on this tour and future tour. It's painful. But these new guys could unfortunately never pull off the great 70s music that Kath and Cetera created. They practically turned Beginnings into a disco song.
I LOVE ALL THE GUYS present and past from day one of this band. Wishing you can still rock on for another hundred years at least in the hearts and minds of fans of your cool songs, the marking of a magnificent era in music both for you and others, and the now-a-days RARE usage of COOL BRASS in music in general. Maybe another group will become a tribute band to carry the torch and inspire new and young talents, that Brass and great songs a band do make. And hope they keep it together as well for another lifetime. We need it.
They fired Danny shortly after this.. His playing is better than any future drummers they hired. Robert Lamm said he wouldn't have fired Danny if he had to do it all again. Danny saved this band millions of dollars, and got the band 49% of the publishing (as opposed to 0%; all went to Guercio), and he wasn't a primary writer, so this was going to help (mostly) the other guys... I just saw Danny play with CTA, and my gosh... just watch any video on UA-cam. I'm a drummer, and can't imagine being that great in my mid-70s.
BY THE WAY - any of you cool fans here old enough to remember Fats Domino? - he had a brass section that would've been an amazing compliment to play with these guys on occasion. I saw Fats in a small venue concert and they all blew the roof off. Chicago of course did it the best and always will hold that honor.
So I'm reading the comments and I see a few irritating things...1. "The Vocals Suck" and 2. "No Cetera, No Chicago" and 3. "The Guitar Player sucks".......Here's my opinion, as a professional musician at this point in my life....I think Jason Scheff truly is a great musician. His songwriting, playing, singing, etc...I think he's amazing...I also consider Chicago 18 and up a COMPLETELY different Chicago, even if it has some of the original members. I absolutely love Chicago 18 through The Stone of Sisyphus...I don't think any less of Jason, just because he isn't Cetera....they're two completely different musicians with their own talents that are different from one another....This particular concert wasn't mixed well so that takes care of the vocal issue....I'll agree the entire concert could've sounded better but I think it's simply the mixing that was bad...They maybe could've used more practice but from what I hear, it's all pretty spot on......Finally, whoever the hell thinks that guitar player sucks just needs a hearing aid...That guitar player KICKS ASS....Sure, he's not Terry, but who gives a damn? Terry was amazing, but this guy is great, too...I believe that with all of my heart............Having said all of this, I will always love older Chicago more, but that's just me.....Newer Chicago is always on my playlist and I'll never stop liking either version of Chicago....Cetera and Scheff both have impacted me in different ways with my music so I'll leave it at that....There's no reason for me to pick a favorite or say which is better....They're both good friends. They like each other's music.
+Robert G. Kath gave it a shot and blew it obviously. people who think Chicago is bad just because Cetera and Kath are gone just aren't musicians and don't understand music.
+James Kennedy Chicago is belatedly going into the R&R HoF based on what it did from 1969 to 1985, not for what it has done, or more accurately hasn't done, from 1986 to present.
+James Kennedy I actually had Chicago 18 (1986) and have listened to Chicago 19 (1989), which was Serephine's last album with the band. That was enough for me.
I will admit that this is not one of their finest hours. I believe that's Dawayne Bailey on lead guitar and vocals. He just is not "Chicago" and definitely can't hold a candle to Terry. The addition of Keith Howland was a breath of fresh air. I've been a fan for their entire career and will continue to be regardless of a bad gig or two. God bless Chicago.
Keith Howland definitely brought them back to life. I like their lineup now. They been with this line up for a long time. Scheff you can pretty much say is Chicago now after 20+ years in the band.
Dawayne Bailey wasn't trying to "hold a candle to Terry", he was doing what he was paid to do. I love Terry Kath but you also have to admit Dawayne is an exceptional guitar player in his own right.
Dawayne Bailey to me is the best guitar player in the band of Chicago (YES including the guy who formed the band) EVER. And he got a GREAT voice aswell :-) This to me this is MY favorite version of the Chicago band - Except when Peter Cetera was included in the band. Not only as the singer and bass player, but also as the BEST songwriter in the band ~ EVER. Without Peter Cetera the band Chicago would never have been where they are today.
Caption - "Hard To Say I'm SOLLY"??? Priceless...! I agree with most posts about Bill C doing Terry's vocals on the classic early songs....just not right. Thank goodness they've got Lou now!
Agreed on Dawayne's solo. He was a bit "yowly" for me, but very talented. In fact, on balance I'd say I prefer Keith - yet his hommage to Kath in this solo has become a bit too marching-band, whereas Dawayne really weaves it in with fire and creativity. Hats off.
Jason Sheoff is just as good as Peter Cetera. I love all his songs he wrote most of the songs that he sung he wrote Will You Still Love Me? What Kind of Man Would I Be? etc Bill Chaplain was the vocalist originally on Look Away Chicago 18
He didn't wrote Will You Still Love Me...But Tom Keane, one of the authors, was Jason's friend and Fellow bandmember , at the band "Keane " in thevesrly eighties, together with Tom's brother John . (Not to confuse with the british band of the same name). The other songwriters of the song are David Foster and Richard Baskin. So Jason didn't write the song, but his friend that did really knew how to write song song for Jason to sing!! As if he knew Jason's heart so well!!! 😃😍 He really did!!!!
I Never Cared Much For BILLS Singing OR Playing.I couldn't Stand How He Did The Songs TERRY Use To Sing.And Playing Organ Or Whatever On SATURDAY IN THE PARK In The Back Ground.Ugh. Love Just ROBERTS 🎹 Piano!!
I still like the 2 albums that featured Donnie Dacus. I know he had an ego and was selling his own T-shirts at Chicago Concerts and with the other members of Chicago knowing. When I google his name it just says he was a stage actor in the Muscal Hair before being the first replacement for Terry Kath.He was kind of an American Version of Peter Framton. Not doubt today his long blond hair is a grey fade cut ! He seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. He should have formed his own band.
You could sure hear the new thing most drummers added to their playing. A little thing to the side called the click. Not a drummer just remember hearing about it in a Chicago biography
Its nice to hear from someone who knows the facts and has great music taste. I dont believe in opinions (they are for the weak). Something bad happened to music it was called the 80's. The greatness of the 70's gave way to weaker and cheesier music and songwriting. Chicago had one good album in the 80's and that was Chicago-16 (1982) that album had some energy and a punch to it. So many bands had a dropoff in quality when the 80's arrived.
Probably because of that era Robert had to use two to three different keyboards. And the horn player section wasn't so familiar with keys . they were probably still mastering their first instruments. Eventually if you're a good musician like they are you. eventually pick up other instruments on the way
Love Dawayne Bailey style of playing. He's a talented guitar player, and really made great guitar soloing. Just what the band needed at the time, a gunslinger from the late 80's.
Dawayne was great, all around!
Very much especially love this gig.
Jason never sounded or looked better. yummy!
Danny looks SO good & is the Master of those drums
Bill's soulful voice & such a multi-talented man.
They should have not kicked Dawayne, Danny & Bill out.
All those great voices took the pressure & strain off Jason and let him shine.
One of many bad business personnel changes made out of ego & Lord knows what craziness.
I seen him live with Chicago in 88 live at the universal amphitheater with Danny Seraphine still in the band, I was in elementary school, my 1st live pro concert, it was life changing, but the only part of the concert I didn’t really like, even at that age was Bailey’s solos, he way over played & was doing the 80’s shredder thing & I felt even then that he didn’t fit in with Chicago, but I will say the solos that he didn’t over play on at that show were great.
Sucks he was excluded from the HOF and wasn't even mentioned....
An absolute Ace. He brought his own playing and he gave the band a new flavour. Great, great musician.
Dewayne Bailey was the worst choice Chicago ever made.
第二次黄金期、このころのシカゴが大好きでした。このライブの動画何回も何回も観てます。
ビルチャンプリンの大大ファンです。リードボーカルもバックコーラスも(ハモり)ジェイソンとの掛け合いも本当に素敵です。脱退したのが残念で仕方ありません。

Can you translate to english. I would love to know what you said.
that was the tightest, most kickass lineup ever.
damn spectacular concert
Indeed even when they went into the 90s

Saw them with Dewayne on the Parkway in the 80's . He was great
I saw them on this tour in 1989 when they came to Washington DC, brought back some great memories
I think Jason is a great bassist and he puts his heart into his singing and playing.
He's under rated for sure. Great player till this day. He's on ig

Danny saved this band millions of dollars, and got the band 49% of the publishing (as opposed to 0%; all went to Guercio), and he wasn't a primary writer, so this was going to help (mostly) the other guys... I just saw Danny play with CTA, and my gosh... just watch any video on UA-cam. I'm a drummer, and can't imagine being that great in my mid-70s.
Oh...watching again!!! The days when musicianship was everything and you could hear the lyrics!!! and arrangements......oh I give up.....
I was there! Very good memory. Thank you for sharing.
Since Dawayne Bailey has left, I realized he has great talent not only metallic guitar play. Might be little late, "STONE OF SISYPHUS" is my favorite.
great!
Lucky you to have seen Jason & Dwayne. I felt they brought “youth” to the group & their own talent!
Champlin and Scheff are superb musicians and awesome vocalists that elevated CHICAGO to another level......
no man , cetera was chicago ! lol ! but these guys are very good !
He sure was but he needed everyone in the band to bring out his great voice, Chicago and it’s unique greatness.
Dude on the button. You a musician?
@@pascaljeanne8002 he was cancer. Hated the horn section
@@charvelred ... Cetera just got tired of trying to sing over the horns. Not easy. Not cancer.
I'm from Corpus Christi, Tx. and I saw them 4 times before 1976 came around and I miss the old Chicago. Nobody could ever replace Terry Kath and Peter Cetera.
Thank you for uploading the precious video. I've been a big fan of Chicago, and whCen they came to Tokyo, I was around 19 years old university student, and I was there with my friend to fully enjoy their great songs. I've never thought of having an opportunity to experience the same moment on the net. Thanks a lot, again.
いや、最高ですね、まさか私が10代の頃に見た武道館のライブを見ることができるなんて考えても見ませんでした。当時はToToとChicagoのぞっこんでした。池袋のBicCameraに通っていた時代でした。
Thank you so much for sharing this Chicago concert in the late 80’s. Pure joy
Dwayne Bailey on Just you N Me those vocals on point!!
Dave Norman - have to agree with you. I grew up with 70s Chi, first tour I saw as a kid was Chi Vii, back in '74. Never be anything like 70s Chicago, but I have come to appreciate that the 80s stuff was also good.
we cant stop the hurting is an amazing tune .
Saw this line up in London....amazing!!!! Bill Champlins voice and De Wayne....transformed this amazing band onto another level.....one of the best gigs ever.....
I remember it was a pleasure to smoke Colombian gold , and listen to Chicago music .
Ahh...the good, old days.
yessir,,,,, different time of life then Jorge.
Aaaaaaah the good ol days of burning one during the concert. And listen to the Boys.
The Famous Danny Seraphine Toupee... he is killing it here.. sounds great
+Dreaming in Stereo There is a bittersweet chapter in Danny's book about the hair transplants and the toupee. He liked the way it looked on him, but it was a huge pain for him to deal with. He had to cope with secretly transporting his hair pieces, having them washed and styled, and using the right kind of adhesives for each situation. Can you imagine sweating and playing the drums in a rock band while wearing a hair piece? They were playing outdoors when a huge storm blew in and flipped the toupee up. He was holding it to his head and drumming with the other hand, and then he got up and ran off the stage just before their stage equipment collapsed--right onto his drum set! He would have been killed if he hadn't run off because of the toupee--he calls it the toupee that saved his life. I think there should be a special place in Heaven for young men who went bald in the "hair-centric" 70's. Nowadays, so many guys including musicians shave their heads, and nobody thinks anything of it.
I was there - A dirt racetrack, 30 days into a drought. Lincoln NE. Beach Boys played set. We were 20 feet from stage. Chicago comes out, 3 songs in...BOOM talk about thunder and lightning - end of drought. stage collapsed. farmers getting $20 to tow cars out of the mud, i think i peed on somedody under a semi. Slept in some chick's plaid something that night, everything i owned was mud caked. next day, went to college world series in Omaha.. oh the consulting days

Don't rationalize it.
He's got a Gene Krupa, Louie bellson look going!
Watched the Tanglewood 1970 concert immediately before cherry picking through this, and I have to say ...... whilst the original line up and early 70's material and in concert vibe is utterly matchless, this concert, within an 80's overcoat, is just as valid ..... I think it's unfair to compare the various later members unfavourably. They are clearly talented musicians, and Jason Scheff's bass playing at the end of Danny Seraphine's solo (interesting to hear him doing a Neil Peart / Bill Bruford with the sample pads !) is fantastic - what a musician ! At the end of the day, it's not their fault that music tastes and what would sell changed ..... they simply tried to stay with the game, and all credit for that.
I agree totally, Dave. This incredible band kept it together and moved on, which is more than you can say about the detractors trashing this video and Chicago's post 70's career because Pete left or Terry died. My question to the malcontents is if these replacements are so bad, why did Chicago vote them into the band? What, your musical heros have tin ears, don't know talent? You gonna tell Robert Lamm, James Pankow and the rest that their replacements really suck? There is so much to still love about this band...
thanks for the info now my confusions were answered :)) cos everytime i search for chicago band, there's always two bands named chicago with different members appear ,, good to know
+Dave Norman Thank you for being one of the few voices of reason on this comment board.
Dave Norman Well said Dave, especially when people bag DaWayne's playing, yes it's very different to Kath's but that's the point, they wanted him to be currant (1980's) and also be himself, sure like Kath he would let his emotions get the better of him and sometimes 'over play' but he is great on this concert, you can't really compare the 69,70's Chicago with the 80's Chicago if they stayed the same I honestly think they would've lost their record contract, of course this is if they got someone like Kath, anyhow I love both versions, I can also understand the argument that the 80's should've had more horn parts.
@@michaelwright664 Sure, musical tastes change, and if the band had continued to tour and primarily perform the stuff the new lineup had recorded together, nobody would bat an eye. But they didn't do that. Their concerts have been almost all stuff recorded in the first 17 albums. I remember seeing a Chicago 18 era TV appearance, and they performed 25 or 6 to 4, and not the Chicago 18 version but the Chicago 2 version!!!!! Apparently musical tastes hadn't changed very much in terms of what they want to hear from Chicago. You can't have it both ways, picking musicians with a new sound who can't play the old stuff right and yet keep playing all the old stuff almost exclusively. It has gotten worse over the years until now they are a glorified tribute band.
I've seen Chicago in concert several times since '95. Actually, Jason and Bill sound pretty good here.
Nice to see We Can Stop the Hurting. They should play that more, as well as If She Would Have Been Faithful and hits from 18 (Niagara Falls, Forever, Nothing's Gonna Stop) and more hits from 21 (Explain, God Save, Chasin', etc.). Even We Can Last Forever from 19 and Heart in Pieces (also from that album).
Ha! He sounds alot like Peter in a sort of tenor spot that back in that day when I busy raising children in the early 80's that I thought it was Peter lol. .you have to remember back then we did not have any of this!!!
damn!
They played the Hell out of You're The Inspiration"
Dawayne!
BRAVO
Indonesia nonton 2019 kasih jempol...
They still have the great horn sound.
Walt, lovong that flute solo on Just You N Me. I saw you guys in September 1988 and remembered you guys did Canon seguing into Just You n Me, just as you did at this concert, love that transition.
Wow, long-haired Jason Scheff...I'm in love!!!! 1980s hair Chicago just seems so strange to me. And opening with "Along Comes A Woman," that doesn't happen anymore!
His natural curls are back!!
Thanks for sharing - my first time to view this concert with new members and still long hair bar Robert. Saw them at The Forum last July 18th with Earth Wind and Fire and they all sang and played great as ever and even more exciting after 46 yrs.
So tired of you haters. I don't care who sings or plays or writes or produces or whatever, it's Chicago. Get a life.
This is barely Chicago. Watch the Tanglewood show from 1970. That is Chicago.
Really. It is not drudgery listening to the older hits, they breath so much new live into them…
@@davidutnik that's Chicago Transit Authority, technically.
Dawayne Bailey on guitar was awesome. Like Chris Pinnock in the early 1980th when they played as Chicago-band members .
Great concert ! This was a time when bands played songs from current albums. Oh I guess albums are a thing of the past too. Millennials have sure missed out.
me encanta este grupo,y este video es uno de mis favoritos
Gotta love Dawayne's solo on 25 or 6 to 4. A bit busy in spots, but I like the way he incorporates Terry Kath's original licks into his interpretation. Nicely done. And Seraphine proves he's in the same class as Jeff Porcaro even as his exit from the band is lurking in the shadows. While I am a big fan of Keith Howland and Tris Imboden, these guys really play their butts off in this concert.
this is emotional history! latest they are better than ever!!!
Thank you!! This was such an awesome show. It's the best band they had since the original members!! I know Terry isn't there but D'Wayne was the first guitarist to actually show some chops!! And Jason.... my appreciation runs so deep for him... he might not be a better singer than Pete... but it's close... and he's a far better bass player... his dad's really good too!!
Dwayne Bailey without question the 2nd best lead guitar Chicago put on the floor. Actually the 9 years he was in the band rivals any time period as my favorite Chicago years. Pete Cetera hurt the group when he left , or ousted , whoever you listen to. But Jason Schep proved to be a huge talent and class act. Bill Chapman was great too. With Bailey , Schep and Chapman that was the best lineup by far except for the original cast
Cetera didn't quit. The band/management forced his hand. They agreed first he could record a solo album and spend time with his new born daughter but they reneged on their promise and told Cetera if you can't record (Chicago 18)and tour we'll look elsewhere for a bass player " in an assumption Cetera would fold and surrender the requests he made that they agreed to FIRST. Cetera shocked them by saying "I guess it's time you got a new bass player". It was Not the response they expected from him.😮😮😮
It’s Jason Scheff and Bill Champlin, whom Kenny Loggins discouraged from joining Chicago, saying their day was over since Kath died. Wrong, Kenny!
@@LisaGemini Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald were considered in the running for the original spot as the lead singer of TOTO. Thank God David Paich and Jeff Porcaro chose Bobby Kimball. "Hold the line" their first single was so right on spot with Kimballs vocals.
What a great concert. This is Bill Champlin at his finest!
That's not saying much. He sucks.
Bill is truly missed
I Love Chicago!
O my God what a pleasure and happy to see this. Thank you very much this is fantastic after all these years. Love you and love Chicago
Danny swings!!!!!! saw this line-up in the UK!!!!
Waiting for the unbiased true story of my favourite group!!!!
I saw this lineup in Birmingham on that tour. Danny's last show with the band I think
Really love the extended version of Along Comes a Woman, with Pankow's solo. They should never have dropped that.
With Chicago? Do tell.
Killer "Will You Still Love Me" performance.
Agreed! They don’t sing this heartfelt song enough at their concerts- I love it💞.
my band of all time
Mine, too! Amazing! Finally in the RRHOF.
Nice choice, sir.
Too bad they don't play a set list like this anymore, the best of the 70's and 80's. They have been basically playing the same tired set list for the last 15 years. They act as if Hard Habit and Inspiration were the only decent songs they released in the 80's. It's a shame, especially for fans who deeply admire and enjoy both eras.
TruthHurts58 What gets me is how disrespectful it is to Jason. He had a good run of at least two or three hits, but these days he spends his time singing nothing but Peter Cetera songs every night. Surely they can find room to let him have one song of his own.
TruthHurts58 totally agree with you, Chicago are even worse now that they have a lead singer who doesn't even play Bass and they also lost their drummer
Most of the classic bands are in the same boat now. Their creative process has long burned out but they still need to make a living. Especially in this digital age where the royalties have been vaporized. But a lot of fans still love hearing this stuff in person so they'll always have a financial avenue
There's so much David Foster era garbage on this tour and future tour. It's painful. But these new guys could unfortunately never pull off the great 70s music that Kath and Cetera created. They practically turned Beginnings into a disco song.
I LOVE ALL THE GUYS present and past from day one of this band. Wishing you can still rock on for another hundred years at least in the hearts and minds of fans of your cool songs, the marking of a magnificent era in music both for you and others, and the now-a-days RARE usage of COOL BRASS in music in general. Maybe another group will become a tribute band to carry the torch and inspire new and young talents, that Brass and great songs a band do make. And hope they keep it together as well for another lifetime. We need it.
There still here. A lil different but its been that way...
Bill Champlin brought a lot to the group.. Not Colour My World..
They fired Danny shortly after this.. His playing is better than any future drummers they hired. Robert Lamm said he wouldn't have fired Danny if he had to do it all again. Danny saved this band millions of dollars, and got the band 49% of the publishing (as opposed to 0%; all went to Guercio), and he wasn't a primary writer, so this was going to help (mostly) the other guys... I just saw Danny play with CTA, and my gosh... just watch any video on UA-cam. I'm a drummer, and can't imagine being that great in my mid-70s.
So who fired Danny? The jealous Jimmy Pankow who helped chase off Cetera?
@@LisaGemini Most likely yes
@@LisaGeminiMost likely yes 😮
Dawayne Bailey killin' every his solo guitar!!
For that time yessssss
BY THE WAY - any of you cool fans here old enough to remember Fats Domino? - he had a brass section that would've been an amazing compliment to play with these guys on occasion. I saw Fats in a small venue concert and they all blew the roof off. Chicago of course did it the best and always will hold that honor.
So I'm reading the comments and I see a few irritating things...1. "The Vocals Suck" and 2. "No Cetera, No Chicago" and 3. "The Guitar Player sucks".......Here's my opinion, as a professional musician at this point in my life....I think Jason Scheff truly is a great musician. His songwriting, playing, singing, etc...I think he's amazing...I also consider Chicago 18 and up a COMPLETELY different Chicago, even if it has some of the original members. I absolutely love Chicago 18 through The Stone of Sisyphus...I don't think any less of Jason, just because he isn't Cetera....they're two completely different musicians with their own talents that are different from one another....This particular concert wasn't mixed well so that takes care of the vocal issue....I'll agree the entire concert could've sounded better but I think it's simply the mixing that was bad...They maybe could've used more practice but from what I hear, it's all pretty spot on......Finally, whoever the hell thinks that guitar player sucks just needs a hearing aid...That guitar player KICKS ASS....Sure, he's not Terry, but who gives a damn? Terry was amazing, but this guy is great, too...I believe that with all of my heart............Having said all of this, I will always love older Chicago more, but that's just me.....Newer Chicago is always on my playlist and I'll never stop liking either version of Chicago....Cetera and Scheff both have impacted me in different ways with my music so I'll leave it at that....There's no reason for me to pick a favorite or say which is better....They're both good friends. They like each other's music.
+James Kennedy The vocals do suck, and no Kath/Cetera/ Seraphine ... no Chicago, just this self-tribute band.
+Robert G. Kath gave it a shot and blew it obviously. people who think Chicago is bad just because Cetera and Kath are gone just aren't musicians and don't understand music.
+James Kennedy Chicago is belatedly going into the R&R HoF based on what it did from 1969 to 1985, not for what it has done, or more accurately hasn't done, from 1986 to present.
+Robert G. And you've listened to all of the albums after 17?
+James Kennedy I actually had Chicago 18 (1986) and have listened to Chicago 19 (1989), which was Serephine's last album with the band. That was enough for me.
Bring it back Dawayne Bailey 2022
Jason Scheff is great on his instrument. He has a different tenor voice from Cetera. DAWAYNE BAILEY IS AMAZING AND FUCKING UNDERRATED.
who underrated Dawayne??
There both under rated
happy 80th birthday jimmy,keep blowing that bone man
Try ty stick, it will blow your mind. Keep trucking Chicago !!
demasiado buena esta agrupacion....
Si brotha
Thank you for sharing!! I'm so excited!! I love Chicago♥
During this era of the lineup, they had the COOLEST lead guitarist...😍🤩😍😎😎😎👍👍👍👏👏👏☺🙂😊.
I will admit that this is not one of their finest hours. I believe that's Dawayne Bailey on lead guitar and vocals. He just is not "Chicago" and definitely can't hold a candle to Terry. The addition of Keith Howland was a breath of fresh air. I've been a fan for their entire career and will continue to be regardless of a bad gig or two. God bless Chicago.
Keith Howland definitely brought them back to life. I like their lineup now. They been with this line up for a long time. Scheff you can pretty much say is Chicago now after 20+ years in the band.
Holy crap...this was a great show. The most powerful lineup since the original. Horns just smoldered. C'mon, man...
Dawayne Bailey wasn't trying to "hold a candle to Terry", he was doing what he was paid to do. I love Terry Kath but you also have to admit Dawayne is an exceptional guitar player in his own right.
A mio parere la miglior interpretazione dei Chicago e Danny alla batteria superbo, ineguagliabile
Look at Jason! I can’t get over it. That’s Jason!
FABULOSITY AT IT'S VERY BEST. ROBERT IS REALLY CUTE.
Dawayne Bailey to me is the best guitar player in the band of Chicago (YES including the guy who formed the band) EVER. And he got a GREAT voice aswell :-) This to me this is MY favorite version of the Chicago band - Except when Peter Cetera was included in the band. Not only as the singer and bass player, but also as the BEST songwriter in the band ~ EVER. Without Peter Cetera the band Chicago would never have been where they are today.
Best "Along Comes a Woman" thanks to DB's guitar. Reproducing the record accurately.
Caption - "Hard To Say I'm SOLLY"??? Priceless...! I agree with most posts about Bill C doing Terry's vocals on the classic early songs....just not right. Thank goodness they've got Lou now!
Amo❤❤❤ felicidades pra todos
Agreed on Dawayne's solo. He was a bit "yowly" for me, but very talented. In fact, on balance I'd say I prefer Keith - yet his hommage to Kath in this solo has become a bit too marching-band, whereas Dawayne really weaves it in with fire and creativity. Hats off.
This best line up ever....Scheff and Champlin!!!!
and with Da wayne Bailey as the BEST fastest finger lead super guitarist...
Not by a long shot. Champlin is the worst. Nothing comes close to the original 7.
i found out old songs are more attractive...too bad i couldnt go to their concert anymore
Wow Danny Seraphine drums made this group so much tighter
It waZ a real shame that they fired him in 1990. I'm thrilled to see that Danny reunited with them for the R&R Hall of Fame performance!!!👍🥁🥁
AGREE!!
Danny was and still is a very musically minded drummer!
If you want hear Bill Chaplin at his best listen 2 The Son of Champlin , Loosen
up Naturally
Great horn band, legendary 👍👍
Jason Sheoff is just as good as Peter Cetera. I love all his songs he wrote most of the songs that he sung he wrote Will You Still Love Me? What Kind of Man Would I Be? etc Bill Chaplain was the vocalist originally on Look Away Chicago 18
He didn't wrote Will You Still Love Me...But Tom Keane, one of the authors, was Jason's friend and Fellow bandmember , at the band "Keane " in thevesrly eighties, together with Tom's brother John . (Not to confuse with the british band of the same name).
The other songwriters of the song are David Foster and Richard Baskin.
So Jason didn't write the song, but his friend that did really knew how to write song song for Jason to sing!! As if he knew Jason's heart so well!!! 😃😍 He really did!!!!
Look away was Chicago 19
No where near as good as Cetera. No comparison.
Damn, man!! Apparently Bill Champlin doesn't think his singing is insufferable, but l believe he's wrong!
He screws up the melody, inflection, over-sings, and I don't care for his voice, but he seems like a decent guy who speaks his mind during interviews.
I Never Cared Much For BILLS Singing OR Playing.I couldn't Stand How He Did The Songs TERRY Use To Sing.And Playing Organ Or Whatever On SATURDAY IN THE PARK In The Back Ground.Ugh. Love Just ROBERTS 🎹 Piano!!
DeWayne Bailey...awesome......
2023....jason and bill please return cause the current lineup is finally the zzzzzZ
Nice to see when Danny was still drumming with the band, although the repertoire had been so watered down by now.
WOW. Excelente concierto.
Lamb always had the best voice 👍👍
Cetera and Kath were much better .
Oh yes oh yes oh yes.....CHICAGO!!!!! Thanks for uploading, bro turkey.
It´s an excelllent apport... I´m enjoy it...
Dayanne is too good
"We can stop the hurtin'"....grat tune!
Great drumming by Danny Seraphine, interesting how Danny had kind of a Gene Krupa, Louie bellson look going!
Indeed, peaked in Early 1970s when they were the Best.
The horns still Authentic
I like Bill ,he has such a beautiful voice. Great Singer.
jason scheff has been in the band 25 years;and is the nephew of elvis presley's bass player.
i thought it was nephew.
+beatlecider I thought I was his only nephew.....Whoa is me
apparently not ?
it's time you know.
Jason Scheff's dad played for Elvis. Jerry Scheff.
1:17:42 Hard to Say I'm Solly - - - must be Japanese who wrote/edited the text 😂
But they played the song perfectly, Jason's vocal was very sweet.
I still like the 2 albums that featured Donnie Dacus. I know he had an ego and was selling his own T-shirts at Chicago Concerts and with the other members of Chicago knowing. When I google his name it just says he was a stage actor in the Muscal Hair before being the first replacement for Terry Kath.He was kind of an American Version of Peter Framton. Not doubt today his long blond hair is a grey fade cut ! He seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. He should have formed his own band.
❤Incredibly cool band ❤
You could sure hear the new thing most drummers added to their playing. A little thing to the side called the click. Not a drummer just remember hearing about it in a Chicago biography
That was one of the reasons they fired Danny Saraphine, he apparently did not adopt The click track and they thought he was a relic!
Good version of just you and me. One thing that later lineups had was a richer vocal density on stage with 4 vocalists.
First album a classic 👌
Precioso...
Its nice to hear from someone who knows the facts and has great music taste. I dont believe in opinions (they are for the weak). Something bad happened to music it was called the 80's. The greatness of the 70's gave way to weaker and cheesier music and songwriting. Chicago had one good album in the 80's and that was Chicago-16 (1982) that album had some energy and a punch to it. So many bands had a dropoff in quality when the 80's arrived.
Everything you said Is an opinion
Dwayne bayley rocks
Robert Lamm plays the guitar perfectly as the keyboards Makes me wonder why he never played guitar during the Peter Cetera and Terry Kath years.
Probably because of that era Robert had to use two to three different keyboards. And the horn player section wasn't so familiar with keys .
they were probably still mastering their first instruments. Eventually if you're a good musician like they are you.
eventually pick up other instruments on the way
