This is the song Robert Lamm said he woke up out of a dead sleep, and he started writing down the words that had come to him. He took it to the band, and they created a monster hit, that still gives me chills.
Lincoln Adams The most useless member of Chicago was the guy that never made it into the group. You know....................like Lincoln Adams. He was clearly the WORST member of Chicago in the history of the group. ....................and in 2nd place..................the guy that goes by the moniker r5t6y12. He was almost as bad as Lincoln Adams but not quite..............................(8^)
they had more in common than people know: sometimes its good to ditch the horns, watch the Terry Kath Experience & listen to what Terry's wife had to say about Peter & Terry, closer minds than you think, yet Pankow wants Cetera to always be the bad guy, nothing but foolish egos left in that band that calls themselves Chicago; Pankow is a genius with the horns but does he always have to be so full of himself.
Regina Boudreau I think he was the main reason Peter turned down his appearance at the HOF. Sad. These guys are in their 70’s and their relationship seems as fractured as it was in 1985. Peter tried to do the right thing for his fans but like he said “music is supposed to be fun and nothing about that evening seemed to be fun for him” At least the music lives on and Peter still continues to do concerts. I hope to see him soon!
If Peter Cetera had a "magnum opus" bass line, this would probably be the one--in the studio, at least. As great as his playing was on the studio albums, his live playing was always even better! "Dialogue" serves as Exhibit A in proving that Kath, Cetera, and Seraphine were the heart and soul of vintage Chicago. (Sorry, horns! Love ya, though.)
Listening to this isolated track as a power trio it is incredibly eerie how truly close Terry Kath and Jimi Hendrix are in both style and attack and just shear moxie as rock guitarists with something extra to give.
Peter Cetera is a world class bass player His bass chops are incredibly tasteful, soulful and in the pocket. Terry, Peter and Danny were the driving force of Chicago. Anything less than their involvement is not Chicago, but a copy.
Probably my favorite tune they ever produced. What's interesting is how the lyrics seem to fit the very personalities of each man. Terry the gruff but sensitive leftist abd Peter the kind of "yuppie-to-be", eveeything is alright.
They weren't so "soft" in the early 70s at times. I like this side of Chicago. To bad they cheesed out in the 80s. Not that I don't like some of their softer stuff!
Holy Cow! I just love these isolated tracks....where in hell do you get this stuff from? Is there a website with this software? Please do tell!....This is Out-Effin-Standing like jhnstn1 says...especially for a bass player trying to play covers of these songs...THANKS! :D

bass transcription time! Peter...da MAN!! Anyone who says Peter Cetera was just the vocalist for Chicago doesn't haven't a single clue.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Fact!!
Gezzuz! The guitar gave me a natural high. 40 years later and Kath can still do that.
With this version you can hear the lyrics clearly. The message is timely. Never has there been a greater need for THIS DIALOGUE!
This band's music is just timeless, and can NEVER be overplayed. Amazing group of men.
for sure
Kath and Cetera's vocals really complimented each other, like Lennon and McCartney's vocals. The rough/bluesy edge with/against the sweet high tenor

Terry Kath absolutely plays his ass off here. What a masterpiece.
Wow! Terry Kath was great. So sad he left this world at such a young age. Just imagine what could have been.
Peter Cetera is certainly was of the most amazing Bass Players of all time. I know, I have been a Drummer all my life.
Preach!

Absolutely!!!
Should have included Kath's guitar riffs during the vocal exchange to show how beautifully they meshed with Cetera's bass line.

the "cream" of Transit Authority trio.
"We can make it hap." I always thought was so cool that they cut it off mid sentence.
Funky Dopeness!!!! Rest In Peace Mr Terry Kath! Salute Mr Peter Cetera!
yup
Looooove this song! Listened to it on my way home from work today ! Their voices were so in sync.
Never ever gets old
Love this! I wish you would've left Terry's funky rhythm guitar at the beginning in, though.
kath and cetera, power duo
cannot duplicte these two as much as Pankow thinks he is the genius of chicago-
They also hung out together with their wives and girlfriends. They collaborated well.
Starting at 3:00 that is some awesome power trio stuff right there. No one talks about the groove Cetera and Seraphine could lay down.
Peter Cetera is a world class bass player
His bass chops are incredibly tasteful, soulful and in the pocket.
Terry, Peter and Danny were the driving force of Chicago.
Anything less than their involvement is not Chicago, but a copy.
This is fucking brilliant.
This song is timeless. All of these issues are still impacting our country!
Gracias lindos Terry se habrá ido al cielo y Peter se fue a seguir siendo mejor y Chicago los extraña porque nada fue igual sin ustedes
It's amazing to hear what got covered up by blaring horns.
barkbarkwoof1 I could always hear all of it, even with the horns.
you betcha!
I love Jimmy and Lee. They are a huge contributing force....as was Walt.
Let he who have ears, hear.
Just love these isolated tracks 😊
Great isolated track !! Thank You for Sharing !! ;-)
Could you imagine, these three guys (Bass, Drums & Guitar) starting up the Terry Kath Experience?
yes wish we saw this happen
I wish!!! RIP 🙏 Terry!
Terry had said no one from Chicago would be in his new band according to Cetera.
Its cool to hear this without all the horns blaring! It's neat to hear this in its raw form.
awesome version here
Jesus, that’s one mean solo!
simply spectacular!!!
Kath !
Out-effin-standing!
fireworks! love it! thanks for posting!
Love it!
THE singing at the end 👌
excellent !
This is awesome!
Probably my favorite tune they ever produced.
What's interesting is how the lyrics seem to fit the very personalities of each man.
Terry the gruff but sensitive leftist abd Peter the kind of "yuppie-to-be", eveeything is alright.
When Peter Cetera left Chicago in 1985 before an interview as Soft Rock Band Chicago's lead vocalist. Sure.
They weren't so "soft" in the early 70s at times. I like this side of Chicago. To bad they cheesed out in the 80s. Not that I don't like some of their softer stuff!
Jam!
Comments are right on
Holy Cow! I just love these isolated tracks....where in hell do you get this stuff from? Is there a website with this software? Please do tell!....This is Out-Effin-Standing like jhnstn1 says...especially for a bass player trying to play covers of these songs...THANKS! :D
I like more without horns!
I love Chicago, but this song went too long.
The 45 edit was a disaster though.
