One of my favorite songs from the album. When I was turning 10 years old in 1974, my mom let me get an early birthday present and I chose Chicago's 7th album. I wore that album out. I was so incredibly sad when Terry Kath died. Tragic.
This song really impressed me as to the real, raw talent that Terry had. While there were many songs that showcased his guitar prowess, this song showed his musical talent. Definitely, one of a kind.
Never heard this song live before! Terry Kath, what a brilliant vocal performance and guitar as far as I can hear. I think the band was at there hights at this time. Terry Kath what an outstanding musican - R.I.P. brother, you where gone much much too soon. Merry X Mas to everyone out there and Love and peace to the world!
Hey Carlos - thank you for finding this Terry Kath gem! And I agree with WH - Walter's flute work in this recording should have been on the original recording. This is magnificent!
Still is mine, babalouie. I saw these guys in San Antonio on this tour. I'll bet it was within a couple of days of this performance. Chicago was the band for all us horn players in High School Band.
The powers that be in the rock world always site influence as a criterion for a band's relevance and importance--and placement in the R&R Hall of Fame. The trouble with that is: who is defining 'influence'? The Chicago haters don't have a clue about the legions of kids who picked up horns because they heard Chicago, or how the Chicago sound influenced other bands. I hear Pankow's influence in countless horn parts in music in the 70's, 80's and even 90's. The critics are ignorant elitists.

I had feared that no live versions of this song would ever emerge. Thank God this one survived. This really was a Kath classic. Love you Terry...RIP.
One of their best songs, don't know why it got so little play

Love the flute! They should've done this on the studio recording.
yes, beautiful song & vocal from 1974,s "Chicago VII"
Happy Man, another favorite, is also from Chicago VII.

Great live. Love this song
Precious recording®
It's great they're doing this in Houston. There is a Byblos in Houston.
A great "hidden treasure" from my favorite band in the history of EVER!!
P.S. One person is a Justin Beiber fan.

Only surviving live version of Byblos?
Byblos was the club at Akasaka in Tokyo. I really miss you. So,I have stopped to listen to CHICAGO after your death.
