This was filmed at the Arie Crown Theater in Chicago, IL in November of 1972. Chicago performed an entire week of sold out performances at the ACT.
"Saturday in the Park" was written by Robert Lamm and can be heard on their 1972 'Chicago V' album.
Enjoy!
This footage was filmed in Houston, TX at the Summit Arena on October 13, 1977.
Sadly, Guitarist/Vocalist/M y Hero, Terry Kath didn't survive this time/period.
He died only 3 months after this performance.
The music starts about 3 minutes in. I thought the whole thing was worth seeing. "Live" shows have changed so much. It's hard to imagine musicians coming on stage and tuning their own instruments.
"Beginnings" is from Chicago's first album and it was written and sung by Robert Lamm.
Enjoy!
This was recorded at the Caribou Ranch in Nederland, CO, USA in July 1974. It aired on US TV August 16, 1974. "Just You 'n' Me" was written by trombonist James "Jimmy" Pankow for his then-wife. It was a huge hit and can be found on 1973's 'Chicago VI'.
Enjoy!
This was filmed live in Tokyo June, 1972. "Introduction" was written by Terry Kath.
The video quality is a little poor due to the age of this video. But, it's a rare glimpse at the original Chicago performing this classic.
Enjoy!
This is one of Chicago's biggest hits. This is a beautiful performance of this song. It's also one of my favorite songs that they have done post-Kath.
Enjoy!
This was filmed on the band's Winter 1977 world tour. This is part of a longer Dutch concert. This song is probably my favorite James Pankow tune. It features Peter Cetera on vocals and the legend, Terry Kath on guitar. Enjoy!
