The great Danny Seraphine on drums.
Terry Kath left us way too early in life, he died when he was 31 years old. Jimi Hendrix was reported as saying that Terry Kath was the best guitarist in the universe so he was a huge fan. He also was the soul behind early Chicago albums. Once he passed, Chicago was really never the same band.
That myth has been said about a dozen different guitarists..
Peter Cetera turned them into a pop band.
Yes Hendrix told Chicago that their Guitar player was better than he was. Plus Hendrix was a great Fan of Terry Kath. It be documented
And Terry Kath is not even included in Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the top 100 guitarists. That’s absolutely criminal.
I believe this song was written by Steve Winwood and the Spencer Davis group and of course Chicago put the horns and wood winds to it. They enjoyed playing it on stage.
You are right. The Spencer Davis Group recorded it back in 1967.
Yes you are right though Terry and the band blew the doors off any place that they performed this live!
@@joelliebler5690 Yes they did , except I saw them in a football stadium back in Bufffalo Ny, no doors they filled the place .
There were no horns in this song. The horn players all did percussionist instruments for this song. Watch it live at Tanglewood to see.
@@suecook1326 Thanks for making a note , but I realize there were no big horn action in this song I was just embodying their magical talent as a whole.
Terry Kath and Peter Cetera were both great singers but I liked the soul that Terry put into his vocals.
Make me smile Terry Kath R.I.P
Two words...... THE DRUMMER. Wow, this song takes me back to 1969 when I was in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Germany. I recall having this song on a Akai REEL TO REEL tape recorder which was the best media for it's day. I had an apartment off base and would have a few close friends over to listen to this and Santana. What a treat that was.
Wow you are dating yourself, and I’m right there with you! Music was very important to us back then !
One of the best bands on Earth back in the day when Terry was alive! CTA, Chicago transit Authority before they were forced to shorten it to just Chicago!
Terry Kath got that Ray Charles soul, ripping the Axe in half! RIP
If you ever had the opportunity to see them in concert ........omg they are truly amazing.
Actually, they were Chicago Transit Authority when they released this debut album. The band was asked not to use that name by the city of Chicago, so they just went with...
One of the best debut albums ever! 🎺
Even Chicago’s “sad” songs can’t suppress the unmitigated joy you hear when these boys got together to play. Kath had them in prime groove mode and it was relentless. They were a joy to behold. You can tell they loved playing together.
I live in Chicago and this is truly Chicago music. But I've been to New Orleans and I can understand the vibe. I think the two cities are very closely connected musically.
She has good taste. That's all there is to it. This is one of the great recordings.
@@jazzfusioner9840 , different kind of taste.
I saw them IN Chicago and they have been a fave ever since. It was a while ago.. I'm 67.
RIP Terry Kath. one of the all time great guitarists, ever.
This song is and always was "bad ass" Thank you for playing it..
This is a cover. Spencer Davis group. Steve wynwood originally. But this version is great and a bit different
This song I grew up listening too!
One of the best drum solos ever. Only one that tops it is the one by Santana's drummer at Woodstock in Soul Sacrifice.
Agreed! The overlay of the drummer and percussion is superb. There's also a great, albeit short, drum solo from George Benson's live performance of "On Broadway," with Harvey Mason on the drums and some percussion backing - awesome!
I will second that.
Two other notable Seraphine solos from early Chicago are "To Be Free" from the suite "Ballet For A Girl In Buchannon" and "25 or 6 to 4" paired along with Terry Kath's monster guitar solo. In an interview, Seraphine said he recorded TWO tracks on "25 or 6 to 4", which is why some people thought Chicago had two drummers. Later on Chicago VII, "Devil's Sweet" is another great Seraphine drum track - one of several instrumental-only songs on VII.
That would be Mike shrive
The very first song on this debut double album is the best song on it. Introduction, aptly named, is the Terry Kath sound which passed with him, R.I.P. You will appreciate it. Love your channel. Peace.
Originally written/sang by Steve Winwood while he was with Spencer Davis Group as a teenager. Terry Kath is amazing, and Steve's version is incredible too
CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY,their original name before being sued by the crooks running the city at the time,played my high school graduation dance. Wheeling High,Wheeling ,Illinois.
CLASS OF '69
That Drummer killed it in that cut.
So take her to New Orleans...again
Love watching your together reaction to this great song and band . I was in 8th grade when Chicago gained recognition, been a fan ever since . And Thank You.
I’ve been listening to the first three Chicago albums everyday, for the past 2+ months… All three albums are virtually perfect…
I’m a firm believer that the song “Introduction” is one of the greatest first tracks, of any bands debut albums, ever. It so succinctly tells the listener exactly what the band is all about, and will be for years to come. Back in the days of vinyl, that first track banger was extremely critical…, far more than today’s music experience.
Check out “Introduction”.
Soooo much better than their later ballads. Thanks for the reaction.
I used to pick up the needle and play that drum solo over and over full blast. What an outro
How I love all the percussion in this.
Hard to believe this band changed so much,just a whole other band a few years later,straight pop
Once again Mr. Terry Kath just plain destroys the guitar licks on this one!
Thank you for this reaction. ❤️ This album, Chicago's first album, has most of my favorite Chicago performances. Chicago was nominated for The Grammy's Best New Artist on the strength of this album. The group that won that year was Crosby Stills and Nash. I would love to hear a reaction to the first song on this album called Introduction.
Was my first concert. Their brass selection is always top notch I think they’re all very intelligent and knew all the factors of music
THX 4 this!!!
The best rendition of a classic song written, recorded and made famous by some teenage boys from Birmingham (England). If you haven't done it yet, check out Stevie Winwood singing and playing organ with The Spencer Davis Group - recorded in late '66 and released in early '67. They also had a hit most every Blues and R&B act covered in GIMME SOME LOVIN'.
These boys just lay it down. We used to play a lot of their stuff in HS jazz band.
They were the tool of the 70s. All musicians at the top of their game. Great, groundbreaking writing. Excellent studio and production for the time.
Agreed and Jimmy Pankow was the hero of everyone who played trombone, including me.
@@j.w.matney8390 ya, I played trombone from 6th grade. Marching band, pep band, jazz band and concert band. Went to Europe with American musical ambassadors and put it away when I got back. Went on to pursue recording/live sound engineer that I enjoyed doing for decades.
Great reaction, guys! I know that this kind of stuff probably predates you, since it was put out in 1969, but I hope you don't consider it old fashioned. I'm just an old guy (just turned 70, ya'll!) and this is the stuff of my early rock music listening days. It's rock, and REAL music, played by REAL musicians. Glad you enjoyed it. 🎺🎶
Their music gives me eargasms!
Chicago filled an absolutely wonderful niche in popular music. As a 70 year old, I can honestly say their albums were always at the top of the stack by the turntable. ☺♥
53 years ago. I was 13. All the amazing stuff that showed up at that time. So lucky to have been there. Still listen to all of it.
Chicago is traveling with the Beach Boys in concert and starting in Phoenix tonight (June 8 )They will play all over America through June and July. If you can catch them do it!!! They toured back in 1988 to great critical success!
Dee nailed a sore spot on Chod and got the giggles lol
That drum breakdown reminds me of Santana. Old Chicago is fire..
Chod-Introduce Dee to Dialogue Part 1 & 2. SUPER!! Chicago's drummer Danny Serafin was SO underrated.
Chod, I'd recommend "Just You And Me" and "Question 67 And 68" as next for you!!!
For what it's worth. Terry Kath was the opening lead vocal and guitarist 🎸. Peter Cetera was the bassist and the second, higher vocalist , Robert Lamm, was the keyboardist and the last lead vocalist. You should try a live recording of this. Carnegie Hall maybe. The Drummer Danny Seriphin, got the most music from a drum kit no larger (it seems) than a Sears starter kit. They seemed to me like they had to mop him up from the end of a concert.
Also...Steve Winwood wrote this with the Spencer Davis Group. He was the Keyboard player. ..
New Orleans? Dr John. Also Little Feat (to me) has that Vibe. But what do I know? I am from the NW tip of the United States, on the Canadian Border! We had salmon fishermen and dairy farms. Not much else!
"Poem 58" on this album will blow you away. This track was so cool in the opening layering on one piece at a time and building up. Chiicago's version of "I'm A Man" is the best cover of the Steve Winwood/Spencer Davis written song.
Chod already reacted to "Poem 58"--check it out!
@@michaeliacangelo9423 I saw that he did it as a solo reaction, wondering if his wife listened to it as she wasn't in that reaction.
I point out "Poem 58" to folks who only know Chicago from the post-Kath years of sappy ballads with David Foster and Peter Cetera running the band as what Chicago was in their founding years. They had fused rock, funk, jazz, blues so beautifully.
@@craigw1911 Early Chicago is some of the best rock ever, and "Poem 58" is an overlooked gem. I was 10 when CTA did that first album.
@@michaeliacangelo9423 I was seven when it came out. When my brother went into the Corps in the early '70s, he left his albums at our home, that's when I discovered his copies of Chicago's second and third albums. WOW! Blew me away. I had to buy my own copies then got CTA and each album as they were released. Loved the extra goodies inside, the posters, the iron on transfer in Chicago VIII. Most of all the music! I cried when I heard about Terry Kath's death. He was the heart and soul of the band. Fantastic guitar player, criminally underrated by the press. And that voice!
@@craigw1911 "Make Me Smile" off that second album--but the spliced, full single version--is my all-time favorite song of the rock era. Leonid and Friends does a brilliant cover of it, but frankly, Kath's voice is uncoverable. When I first heard the original, I didn't know I was listening to a guitar when Terry goes off on his guitar solo. Funny thing is, a music reaction couple on UA-cam had the same exact mystified reaction over 50 years later!
The smiles on your faces says it all. I could not agree more. Great band. Great channel. New Orleans? yeah, I can see that...big brash horn bands! Love to you!
Chicago, Santana….both were amazing and shared the same groove….plus when it comes to Carlos and Terry…for me it’s like comparing Apples to Apples….
Terry Kath gets all the comments, but Danny Seraphine was an immensely talented drummer.
Still is.
Early Chicago with terry kath was fire
Love this and been listening for 53 years now. I believe I know every little bit of this song….. Check out the Live Version from Tanglewood 1970
This is the theme music that plays when I walk 🚶♂️. I assume everyone else hears it too.
Chicago was an awesome band especially their early music and Chod you could really jam to this playing the drums
Your boy Steve Winwood and recorded with the Spencer Davis Group
Fantastic song. Nice to see Dee expanding her playlist. This is a classic from their first album. The percussion is off the charts. ❤️🔥
1 of the best albums of all time
You asked where this sound is from.....it's from 1968....that's the vibe...I was there....glad you enjoyed it try Chicago.. Beginings.
"Poem 58" time again Chod.
A great record, fantastic voices and music. It still gives me goosebumps, hearing this 💕💕💕🎶🎶👍
We used to know what we were, the good old days.
This song is right in your wheelhouse.
This is one of those songs, you need to hear at least a couple of the other versions there are. It makes you appreciate each artist's take on it.
please listen to the Live at Tanglewood version of this song, it is on a diiferent level !
Epic gig...Tanglewood 1970...
this is the only cover song Chicago did - cover from Spencer Davis Group hit in 67-68. First singer was Kath; 2nd singer Cetera; 3rd singer Lamm. Drummer - Danny Seraphine - VERY underrated. While you are on their 1st album - if you like horns - you should listen to questions 67 & 68 - singer Peter Cetera, written by trombonist James Pankow and Terry Kath. Incorporates THREE tempo changes. Don't think you will be disappointed. "Beginnings" is another very good song on that album. Chicago incorporated a lot of R&B and jazz into their early music-69-78.
I'm from New Orleans! 🧡
Old Chicago was amazing.. the horns the drums .. so many member sing on this one.. Death of Terry Kath killed this band.. after that they were never the same. Dang it
She is a pretty baby
3 singers in one song. Great stuff.
You have to watch them live! Terry Kath was the Man!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the tune & reaction, but I gotta go to the clothes thing! You can't imagine the stuff we wore! Bell bottom jeans (had to be old, too long, and frayed at the bottom) or you go with either corduroy or paisley, T-shirts were the norm but sometimes you did a double breasted, nehru or strange print silk shirt. Then a macram'e belt, platforms or high top Converse, Then maybe a thick chain with a huge medallion. Our parents hated our clothes as much as this music! LOL
I seen them play that song and more in Chicago in 1975. And had great seats. But didn't do a lot of sitting. Lol
Chicago was a lot more than a band. Despite its collective “flaws” they were, Terry Kath led a trend setting voice in the music of a generation. It wouldn’t be wrong to attribute Don MaClean’s term, “the day the music died...” to Terry, too. Chicago the band was saved, period! Their actual lives! It’s a tremendous story of what the band did following Terry’s death. They got clean. Praise God. Sure came at a heavy cost
Southern California Purples deserves a reaction. Great reaction!
This is with Terry and he's the man
Your Lady really feeling this one. Early Chicago with Terry Kath was the Best!
Again another banger! Also beginnings, listen, California purples, make me smile, does anybody know what time it is, colour my world, 25 or 6 to 4. All 🔥🔥🔥
It does have a deep New Orleans type jazz vibe
this was the very first album when they had the full name Chicago Transit Authority later.to be dropped to jus Chicgo before the death of the original guitarist Terry Kath gotta watch the live version of 25 or 6 to 4
Spencer Davis Group originally did this and it was great. Chicago's cover is simply amazing. The live version just may be better. Early Chicago was so freaking good. When Terry Kath was gone he took the soul of Chicago with him.
How about some Blood Sweat & Tears?
I grew up in that time. Chicago was awesome one of my favorite bands. The album back then cost $2.99. Robert from Atlanta
I don't think this song would be jazzy enough for Mardi Gras! Watch some of the parades live to see. I saw Chicago twice with Terry and most recently in 2016. They are flawless performers tho!
Download them live!!! A lot more time for the percussion breakdown...
Love your outfits.
Now ya need to find a way to time travel back to the early 70's and go to a concert. . . . . I've been to three . . .
This is one of those cases where the cover is better than the original.
🧡
From Chicago here...
Wiow teen memory from 1968
CHOD I don't know if you have reacted to Get Ready by Rare Earth, if not you just might like it.
I love your reactions and choice of songs. Please, Please - Leon Russell live playing "Jumpin Jack Flash" with George Harrison, Clapton, Ringo Starr!!!. This is the kind of music you both LOVE!!! It's from the concert for Bangladesh - first major rock benefit in 1971. The entire video is on the other site that posts videos. Leon at 55:30 minutes in
I saw Chicago live back in the '70s. They were amazing. Able to capture the studio sound in concert.
I grew up with this great band from the 70's-80's. They were a rock & roll band with horns & blended elements of classical music, jazz, R&B, & pop music. They had a lot of great songs such as "Make Me Smile", "25 or 6 to 4", "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?", "Beginnings", "Questions 67 & 68", "Where Do We Go From Here?", "Free", "Lowdown", "Saturday In The Park", "Make Me Smile", "Colour My World", "Hard To Say I'm Sorry", "You're The Inspiration", "Will You Still Love Me?", "Look Away", "Feelin' Stronger Every Day", "If You Leave Me Now", "Old Days" etc.
Ides of March ( Vehicle) The Buckinghams ( Kind of a Drag ) Earth, Wind & Fire and of course Chicago all had horns in these bands coming out of Chicago all around the Same time . Its a Chicago Sound not to mention all the others like Styx , REO's Lead singer KC The Stapple singers , Muddy Waters , Buddy Guy , Cheap Trick from Rockford , Jackson 5 right over the border in Gary Indiana . Look up Chess Records for some of the best Blues artist of all time . 90's Smashing Pumpkins , Disturbed , Kanye , R. Kelly ( should Have not mention that one ) Jenifer Hudson ,Herbie Hancock , Sam Cooke, Common, The Chi-lites, Paul Butterfield . Can't name them all . Buddy Guy has a blues club right downtown waiting for you 2 to knock that New Orleans right out of Dee LOL just kidding . Great job Dee getting Hooked on Chicago . All kidding aside New Orleans has great Jazz
Platforms and bell-bottom pants...
I prefer this version over the one by the Spencer Davis Group. Early Chicago songs were GREAT.
Chicago disco "STREETPLAYER"
(2) Spencer Davis Group - I'm a Man - With Lyrics - UA-cam
spencer davies group from my town Birmingham UK wrote and played the original
👍👍👍👍👍
A few days late to the show - I trust you are inspired by that drum solo to break that out on your kit.
Check out their song “smile”.
