Another great show from Rosebud's Chicago collection. Rosebud, like many others, knew of Chicago because of their Radio Hits & MTV videos when I met her. After we married and my music collection moved in (she freaked out at the size of it) she learned of the Immortal Terry Kath . We have seen Chicago in concert every summer since then at Pine Knob Amphitheater. On the date of their 30th straight year appearing at Pine Knob they issued special shirts for the event. They also played one of the longest sets I have ever caught them play. But I digress, The Terry Kath era of Chicago, in my opinion, is the best the band sounded. If you own Chicago Transit Authority re-listen to the Terry Kath penned song "Introduction". Terry Kath's soulful voice and great guitar playing are just the half of it. Each player in the band is given a small solo section to literally introduce you to the players. The awesome thing about these solos, Terry Kath wrote the too! He wrote each soloists solo specifically to show off each players talent. In the early days of Chicago, Peter Cetera has often said, the members would always play to each other's talents. If Robert Lamm wrote a song but thought Peter Cetera would sing it better it was done so. That's why Peter Cetera sings Robert Lamm's "25 Or 6 To 4" or Terry Kath sings James Pankow's "Colour My World". That's why a lot of Chicago fans feel the first 9 albums are the best.
