not really. Chicago was flawless. Man, that was good music right there. Didn't think Chicago could pull that off, but they were absolutely sensational. Perfecto.
The looks on Chicagos faces is priceless. It doesn't get much better than this. What a great sound! It looks live...but I would think they'd all be wearing headphones - otherwise the instruments would bleed into Al's mic. Anyway, who cares - this vid has made my day! Thanks for posting!!
Yep,, I just had my 50 year high school reunion, and I went to an integrated school. We had such a blast, and all agreed, we were the lucky ones to grow up in a integrated environment
Peter Cetera is the reason I play a P-bass today!!!! that blond blue-eyed boy can groove...I am just sad that there are not more clips that focus on his playing....he plays so effortlessly....I could listen to his bass lines all day
Wow! I never knew this existed! Al Green at his peak (before the grits), and Chicago near their peak (before Terry Kath's death and WAY before David Fostered neutered the surviving members). These days people thing it's a treat getting to see that CeeLo Greene, Christina Aguilera, Adam what's-his-name, and the other guy perform on "the voice." They just don't know any better!! They don't have a clue what they missed out on.
Whooooooo---weeeeeee!!!!....I've just become an Al Green fan!!!!!...The cat is super-ssmmoooth....I've never heard of Al until now...but this song must have played many times on my parents FM station...I'm sure I've heard this before..They had this bad-ass Zenith stereo in this wood cabinet with the speakers that took up a whole wall of our living room....my favorite thing when I was 7..was lying on the living carpet in the dark with the stereo on and listening to all the now-classics...HEAVENLY
My friends KC Conner ,Ralph Anderson and James Dantzler and I watched this and were so floored the by the way Al brings the volume down as he sits and then rises from his seat as it gets louder , physically conducting the band . All the guys knew their parts so well. Magic .
The one and only Al Green teamed up with one of the greatest band who ever put there hands on a instrument "Chicago." Thanks for posting this Classic Clip.
They All Smiling And Happy As Shit...JUST LIKE ME!!! I LOVE YOU AL GREENE...I HAVE SINCE I WAS 15 YRS. Old...MY 1st LOVE...FR...FOR REAL!!! Call My Name Baby!!! I’ll Be There Waiting For You Baby...YESSSIRREEEE!!! GREAT JOB CHICAGO BAND...STUCK RIGHT WITH HIM...AWESOME!!!
The one & only Al Green , may I give you a 🌹 of Thanks, You have so much Soulfulness can’t even begin to imagine, Chicago y’all were awesome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎤🎼
Easily THE BEST version of this classic song. What could be better than one of my all-time favorite soul singers collaborating with my all-time favorite jamband??? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! 😄
That focks is the one and only rev Al Green beautiful soul music nobody close to him and the great Chicago band the just sound in sinc love it this 2022!!!!
Nothing like it a great singer being backed up by real musicians playing real instruments man them Chicago horns love it . It don't get no better than this🥰😃😎
He is the best. I may very well be the ultimate Al Green fan. His smile and his super soulful way make me jump up and down. He is the ultimate groovy guy. Thank Jesus for him.
Listen to the smooth groove that Danny, Peter, and Terry lay down here. This version definitely tops Al's hit solo recording. The horns add so much, as usual. Awesome R&B bass playing by Cetera.
Parkwaymania, thanks for this classic.thanks for all the Chicago video's.their songs are classics,paticularly the ones with Kath.i can still remember reading about terry's death while having lunch at work in '78. keep'em coming.
The original members of Chicago with Al Green. It doesn't get much better than that.
It Doesn't.
Amen.
I’ve been listening to this over and over for a littler over an hour. I got this big OH Yea Kool-aid smile on my face. I’m in awe
What about Chicago and..... Earth Wind and Fire !!!!
I was actually there in the studio that day. It was something i will never forget
Mooshi Mooshi then you are a lucky man 🕺🎼
That must have been something to see what a memory to have!!
That must have been extremely awesome
Wow! You were there ? How?
This was in Colorado at Caribou Ranch. So glad you were there.
Al Green can work a song. He has the God given talent to twist, turn a song and make it sound brand new. Love me some Al Green and Chicago.
Absolute proof that Chicago could hang with anyone in their day. Wonderful day discovering this gift.
Al Green out front of 1 of the greatest bands ever assembled
Marc Sawatzki if icould give your comment more thumbs I would
Just gives you chills woooo he can sing his ass off
1ofthedrews Al sounds so good, Would have better if he had his original band members.
not really. Chicago was flawless. Man, that was good music right there. Didn't think Chicago could pull that off, but they were absolutely sensational. Perfecto.
Pure & Simple ( When Music was Music)..
I just love how Chicago was in awe of Al & I believe they were like we can't believe we are playing music with Al Green!!!! wonderful just wonderful
Peter Cetra seemed to have taken some vocal styling from this in his future recordings.
Totally agree ❤
Yes how wonderful. At a time that many black entertainers ability was questioned by some silly people. I love Al Green and I love Chicago
The looks on Chicagos faces is priceless. It doesn't get much better than this. What a great sound! It looks live...but I would think they'd all be wearing headphones - otherwise the instruments would bleed into Al's mic. Anyway, who cares - this vid has made my day! Thanks for posting!!
Al Green is one of the top greatest singers of all time. Nobody can sing like him.
Sweet Soul. That Chicago horn section is on point!
I wanna see Al green in concert so bad
This was remarkable collaboration! These Boys knew they had greatness at the mic! Just look at their faces‼️the one and only Soulman ❤
I love my generation! Black and white together!
Yep,, I just had my 50 year high school reunion, and I went to an integrated school. We had such a blast, and all agreed, we were the lucky ones to grow up in a integrated environment
The bass players is killing it!!
He's making it extra funky!!!
That's Peter Cetera on bass
@@aubreytaylor7942 He made the song!
Pure excitement in Terry's eyes 😢 rip to the greatest guitar player ever
Great talents happy together.
Peter Cetera is the reason I play a P-bass today!!!! that blond blue-eyed boy can groove...I am just sad that there are not more clips that focus on his playing....he plays so effortlessly....I could listen to his bass lines all day
Terry could not.
His playing with Chicago was the best the same way McCartney is best playing with the Beatles
@@themisianos: Kath could play bass with the best. Listen to his bass work on the Electra Glide in Blue Soundtrack.
Peter Cetera was an amazing Bass player. Saw him in person & it was Amazing!!!!
In my AL tone "I could have stayed up listening to this all day"......☺😂
It just does not get any better. Besides the performance it's nice to see the Chicago boys smiling and grooving.
+Thomas Bowen No sir!

Dead-on, mate!
Doesn't get any better then this!!!!!!!!!!!
Bass line is killing!!!
CARLTON J. SMITH
Peter Cetera
Peter Cetera was such a good bass player.
You never know. I had never put Al Green and Chicago together. However here they are making great music!!! Love this!!
That voice fit perfect with chicago...priceless
The mutual respect of these two musical icons is simply beautiful!
Al Green Smooth as Silk and Chicago Sweet as Sugar! A Perfect Song here! You won't here this being created today..so Enjoy!
I remember watching this special. Chicago was my band. And Al Green, good Lord. None better!
0:40 Peter’s face of elation is so great.
One of my favorite R&B songs!
Al Green is the shit!
this is honestly one of the best videos i have ever seen. man if they would have toured like that... sheesh that would have been amazing
"Hey Al....you get a chance to see the waterfall??"
The water fall was amazing. I was there on the day
@@frankieboy8414 exactly 😂
Dude; Al is killng it.
Most def. Al was killing it, but also Chicago was killing it too.
Always fuckin does. Dudes a straight boss
sing it Rev AL!
This is Chicago Version 1.0 with Terry Kath. After his death and when Peter Cetera took over, they were not even close. No edge. LOVE THIS.
Blah blah blah blah. So tired of this BS!

At the Caribou Ranch in Nederland, CO. Wish this place never caught on fire. What a legendary studio.

The band members of Chicago look as amazed as all of us at what comes out of Al's mouth! This was MUSIC!
