Love to play this to anybody who thinks Chicago is "You're the Inspiration".
I grew up listening to Chicago, that includes their 1970's music. When I graduated from college, I decided to see how many of the albums ( From the Transit Authority Album to Chicago 17); got to appreciate some of the earlier works greatly. I also am enjoying their latest album, "Born For This Moment".
Ain't no other band on the planet kicked ass from start to finish "Any Way You Want" like the original Windy City 7 CHICAGO!!!!🎶🪈🥁🎸🎺🎷🎹
Chicago are the best! Buy this 16 CD boxed set and hear all the evidence yourself.
I am so thrilled and overjoyed to hear these remixes of ALL 8 of the shows Chicago did at Carnegie Hall April 5-10 1971.
I personally was a witness to the excellence of the Chicago III Tour at Western Carolina University in January 24, 1971.
I especially remember the suite the band played that fills side 4 of Chicago III….
Canon/Once Upon A Time/The Approaching Storm/Man vs Man/The End is not only one of the greatest musical pieces of all time….it more than exemplifies what strong musicians Chicago were in 1971.
I’m SO fortunate to have experienced the phenomenal talents of….
Robert Lamm, James Pankow, Walt Parazaider, Lee Loughnane, Danny Seraphine, Peter Cetera and the late Great Terry Kath….LIVE and in PERSON.
Thank you Gentlemen for the magnificent music.
What? Only two Grammys? That's insane. They are freaking amazing. I grew up with their music in the '70s. Everyone in and around Chicago loved them. They were way ahead of their time.
Grammys are pretty irrelevant in rock. The powers behind it took decades to even figure out the relevance of Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, etc.
Lisa Cunningham Actually, they only won ONE Grammy for "If You Leave Me Now." They did beat out Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. That is an amazing accomplishment considering members of the band disparage Cetera and that song. The other is a Lifetime Grammy Award given in 2020.
@@marypablo5086 From interviews I've seen, Pankow seems jealous of Cetera and Bobby Lamm because they sang and were more talented and better looking. He also seems to strongly dislike Bill Champlain, another super-talented songwriter, musician and vocalist. You're right, the other band members hated If You Leave Me Now because it's a ballad. It's really pathetic when people don't love themselves and act all jealous and mean, isn't it?
@@marypablo5086 What do you think was the more groundbreaking, innovative, and memorable song?
@@ptownscribe1254 I prefer If You Leave Me Now over Bohemian Rhapsody. Bohemian Rhapsody is played to death.
Genius, James Pankow, Genius!
Chicago was a progressive rock band up through and including VII. They explored new territory, broke new ground, and were innovative with explorations and discoveries. This piece SMOKES!
until V. VI and VII are the turning points toward a more soft rock! They were so eager to be popular and popish that they forgot to continue being creative instead of mainstream billboard entertainment. I to V are masterpieces of art. VI, VII, VIII, X and XI are struggles to survive in a mainstream business ($$$) but without any of the previous geniality. Anything after that, is just mellow Yellow stuff. At the end I have to recognize that despite many changes I still consider them an amazing band. Regards my friend
@@holderlin13 Sorry, VII is their most experimental album, next to III. There's not even a vocal until about halfway through! There's not much straight-up rock, but it has everything else that made them unique.
@@ptownscribe1254 Yes but that's the time when unaware people started to say that they were imitating Tower of Power which was bad news. Tower of power is almost half the size of Chicago was until Chicago V, there is no comparison. Tower of Power is just jazz Chicago is a whole new world of amazing music without a main character, all of theme were soloist and part of the group: Progressive Rock! period! Regards my friend.
@@ptownscribe1254 Do not forget that VII is full of ballads by Cetera: I'm a Man, Wishing you were here, and Cetera started to dominate as a main character which is contrary to what Chicago was. By the way, the only experimental part of this album is side I, and less than half side 2... the rest is just business as usual. Rgards again!
@@holderlin13 Yes, Chicago vii became a turning point where Cetera's vocals were recognized as being very bankable and he became more of the focus. But drugs also played a role around the mid 70s and it effected the songwriting quality and output of Lamm. Cetera and Seraphine remained sober and so the later Chicago albums of the late 70s had more songs composed by them. Actually. I change that, Cetera's vocals became the focal point from the two successful singles from Chicago vi, an album before.
Because of Chicago and Walt Parazaider, I bacame a sax player. In the early seventies, I was lucky enough to be in a eight piece horn band doing many Chicago songs. This is when they were at their best Always wondered if they did Approaching Storm. Sounds incredible.
Ladies and Gentlemen THIS IS CHICAGO!!!
A Rock Band then you have some beautiful Pieces like this playing in concerts! Truly one of a kind band.
Chicago when Chicago was Chicago
Brilliant. This box set is historic and epic. Thank you so much for bringing us more of the immortal Terry Kath.
Beautiful, beautiful, Chicago at it's Best!!!!
*its
Their greatness! Standing alone! Unsurpassed in these times! 👍
Living in a world where an illness can be ended by a simple poke in the arm(x2) and wearing a mask are a big deal? Thank those up there or all the people upstairs, I get to hear this, hopefully for years to come(jabbed). This is without a doubt the single best rock band. Any band that opened a show today with anything like Elegy and the pride that is Approaching Storm, would be big news. I'm sure even the guys who became part of Chicago in later years would see themselves as working musicians and suddenly one day realize they're a part of Chicago. Like a big powerful locomotive. Followed this song with the studio version of I'm A Man from CTA..
They truly the greatest band of our time
I always wondered if Chicago ever played Approaching Storm live. This was awesome. Thanks Mr. Jessop.
Wow! Impressive! Loved it on ChicagoIII & didn't know they had performed it at Carnegie Hall !
This wasn't included in the original 4 record live set. Apparently they performed this and Someday during their week long Carnegie Hall performance and these songs are now included in a new release of their Carnegie Hall live set.
Fantastic! Brillant writing. JP pouring it on when he takes his melody line from Walt, wow. Great keys from Bobby too.
Excellent stuff. It was so short-sighted that JWG wouldn't let this get filmed at the time. This is what I think of when I think Chicago!!
Same with the Isle of Wight.
Chicago needs to play this in their current concerts.
Every now and then, they will play Canon at a live show as an in-between songs interlude.
not with current lineup !
@@bradleyowen7612I've heard them play Canon Segwaying into Just You N Me before.
Great cut!! I wish this had been on the '71 release...I'd have gotten my copy of III a lot sooner.
Freakin' Great ! The 16 cd set just arrived and looking forward to the many hours of listening. Back in those years "The Columbia Record Club" issued this as two seperate double LP's and included a different tour book than the single 4LP box set had. Still have 'em all !
Don‘t have words!!!.....the best!
I feel happy to listen to my favourite band
AWESOME!!!
been a fan since 1969
Wow is correct Sanjuana. After listening for about 40 yeas or so. I know Chicago IV very well. Purchased LP's and have now digital copies but where the hell was this. Elegy, I mean talk about bringing down the house, about blowing the roof off the place. Thank the people upstairs I got to live long enough to hear that. I have to go back and listen to it again, now. Cheers
Just Fantastic, too bad no one listens to radio today or the rest of the world could discover what only a few of us knew. This band, our band, could really kick some....I got go listen to it again.
Oooh Woooww. Chicago. Mi Banda favorita. 😍🥰😘😘😘💞💕💓❤️❤️
One word - wow!!!
Wow, not heard this piece before, outstanding playing as always, so much excellent music still to be discovered from this band.
it's the final chapter on the magnificent and criminally underrated Chicago III which turns 50 this year. I highly recommend listening front to back
They pulled this little ditty out in the 90s when Here in My Heart was being played in concert...there is either video or audio of this being the intro before going into the acoustic version of HIMH, at the Ruth Eckard Performing Center in St. Pete
@@s.c.carriere8266 they played the into 3 horn section "Canon" from the 80s onward as a nod to their old sound
I admire this innovative work of music. I have had Chicago III since I bought it in the early 1990's (after graduating from college). As for Chicago III, I could not believe that had a toilet flush as a part of that suite (if this is what is called). I considered the flush was a statement being made.
Elegy was Chicago's take on the ecological awareness that was going on at the time. It came out right when the first Earth day happened. Kind of reminds me of the opening accompanying music from Soylent Green that was released a few yrs later. The music starts out as peaceful symbolizing the ecological balance when the Earth's population hadn't done much damage to the plant yet, then we got industrial the music gets faster paced then you hear car horns, traffic jams then the flush meaning we trashed the earth, and it's the end.
@lamarravery4094 - Thank you for your reply and the insight. When ecology is mentioned, I think of the song " Mother" from Chicago III. I. My personal opinion, that song seemed to be ahead of its time.
In the Pardini documentary, Lee.expressed his early doubts whether he was "good enough"..... Lee, I hope you now realize just how damn good you really are!
Спасибо всевышнему что живём в эпоху гениальных музыкантов!!!!
So glad they released the entire eight shows from their run at Carnegie Hall. Hearing this tune live is a very exciting surprise.
Simply superb and unsurpassed
amazing!
This always moves my soul and gives me CHILLS !
Had me at Terry 🎸 🐷
I'm 71 yrs old and became a fan when not many knew about them back then WNEW 103.5 in NYC would play new groups and complete songs not cut down I just shit hearing such skilled musicians.
I recently returned to CIII because I was jonesing to hear An Hour in the Shower. I had forgotten how great that record was. I think it was arguably their pinnacle. TK was clearly driving the band. Loughnane has certainly improved the sound of the horns on this boxed set. Unfortunately it was too poorly recorded to bring it up to Live at Fillmore East and Four Way Street released the same year. Also good to hear when Lamm played his B3.
true they hit some high points they never hit again on that album.
I beg to differ, Chicago V is A Robert Lamm masterpiece and Chicago VII is also very innovative!
What an amazing version of these songs, great job guys!!
OMG so great to hear this masterpiece from III live, wow! They only played this one night during the run at Carnegie Hall?
Excelente...gracias UA-cam...gran selección en vivo de esta gran banda universal!!!
Una precision: no es una selección en vivo sino una elegia en vivo del album III. GRandiosa no crees?
Chicago realmente es TheBand.Sí, la banda de los 70s que nos impactó a muchos.
Walter and Jethro Tull were reasons for me to play the flute for over 45 years. But James and Lee have me wanting to be a brassy lassie like my daughter (french horn for concert band & mellophone for marching). I do have a trombone i got. Just need to learn to play the thing.
Una de mis suites favoritas de ellos... Muy bella, y su significado muy bonito, qué alegría tener está gran pieza en UA-cam, gracias Chicago. Sinceramente el "Chicago III" será mi disco favorito.
Fantastické, nádherné. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

Sounds like they copied Pink Floyd Atom heart mother.
Sure? Pink Floyd has not this kind of power. Pink Floyd is a different kind of stuff... AHM ( Oct-70) Chicago III (Jan-71) do you believe they are trying to copy Pink Floyd? Specially when ATM is not mainstream radio stuff... Think twice next time! regards my friend
@@holderlin13 Unless the band sought out their albums in the UK, it's highly unlikely since these were pre-Dark Side days.
I never heard of that Pink Floyd record but I noticed that 25 or 6 to 4's famous guitar riff sounds very similar to a song from Led Zeppelin's debut album called Babe I'm leaving you. Both songs came out about the same time, not sure who copied who.
Jimmy said his solo sounded like a kazoo. He was right. Too bad.
Jimmy no longer thinks the horns sound like Kazoos. Oh Yeah!
kazoos or not I don't care this sounds amazingly progressive.
