It's was awesome being a kid in the 70s on the south side of Chicago,Kedzie on Cermak, and listening to Chicago in Chicago.Thanks for the memories, guys.
My wife and I and kids and grand kids go to see them every time they tour. . It’s different now with only a few originals left. I miss Terri, Peter, Danny Bill Jason And of course Walter. God bless you all for all you’ve given my family.
I miss Terry Kath so much in the band. I never saw them in concert after he died. I saw them in 75 in Seattle. One of the best moments in my life. I will watch the interview . I know that Terry's death was so shadowed in lies and also lies from the band members.
Time has finally caught up with Lamm. It is amazing that he has that awesome voice apparently forever. Love Him!!
Robert is such a brilliant, deep compassionate person as it is unimaginable sending your child to school and they never comeback.
As a musician , I was always a lover of horns and Chicago was a winner! Terry Kath was awesome as a player and a vocalist!! I'm sure his death was a blow to all fans!
Their first album, CTA was and still is my favorite.
first two albums are phenomenal
I remember paying.30 riding the CTA when I was younger. Everything is expensive now. 😮
Chicago 17 is my favorite.
Love early Chicago
Terry Kath made this band gel along with original members.❤
He was the soul of the band, really. So sorely missed.
I loved Terry Kath but I still remain a fan in my late 60's.
It was 25 or 26 to 4 am. 🙂
Chicago still my favourite band, but miss Peter, Danny, Terry, Jason and Walter. I became a fan since 1984.
Thank you Dan Lee and Robert!

By listening to Led Zep's then recent cover of the blues classic, "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You?"
Sometime in the late 1960's the Arizona State Fair had created what they called a Teen Pavilion. It was really just a very large tent much like what a circus would use. They held Rock concerts in there while the fair was in progress for a few weeks in early November. On one particular night I was there before any of that nights scheduled bands had played . My friends, most all of whom were musicians as was I, noticed that the amps and speakers on the stage were all brand new Custom branded amplifiers. It struck us all as unusual and we wondered just who this belongs too. When the band in question came out and started playing, we were all mesmerized and almost dumbfounded by just how good they were as musicians. It was a band called Chicago Transit Authority and none of us had ever heard of them and we all pretty savvy and familiar with just about every band out there.. This band was releasing their first album and were already out there in support of it. That is something you never forget. Seeing a brand new band for the first time and they get huge right before your eyes.
I always assumed this song was about cocaine
I was always told it was about LSD
3:51 - Only way to keep schools secure is to make it difficult for the shooters to obtain the tools of tragedy - high-capacity magazines, assault weapons, the gun-show loopholes, ridiculously inexpensive ammunition - since our society is SATURATED with weapons, MAKE AMMUNITION EXPENSIVE!!! Take the same approach to ammunition and ammunition makers that we have taken to cigarettes and tobacco companies … if you want to obtain ammunition for the weapons you love to stroke, PAY THROUGH THE NOSE and KEEP PAYING … guns don’t function WITHOUT AMMUNITION … try THIS tack, Robert !!!!!

@ThePMcDonald Nice bit of propaganda. You should unretire, as you would fit right in to the modern, DEI, ESG LGBTQ+ Corps. But you suck as an American.
