“Terry Kath was irreplaceable.”
So was Peter Cetera.

These guys are almost better than Chicago. I bought two of their CDs doing all Chicago songs.
One of the cool things about YouTube is coming across obscure bands from the 70s and hearing them and wondering why they never made it big.
Sounds pretty good to me. But, I'm no Ian Paice.
LOL, before Cetera started writing songs. Pankow wrote “Just You and Me”, Bobby Lamm wrote most of their early hits.
Then out of nowhere, Pete goes and writes their first Number One song, and the rest was history.
Seraphine’s “Street Player” is a fantastic book about the band.
They could call themselves Lyonyd Skyonyd.
I’m also a long time fan of this group, Bass player is having way to much fun on this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJzlHBN3BT4
Definitely one of my faves.
One of my favorite songs ever is Dialogue (Pt. 1 and 2.)
I've been looking for all that "great, current music out there" but it must have "magically" disappeared because I haven't been able to find any. No worries, though, because I've got a ton of great pre-2000 music, all queued up and ready to play at the touch of a screen. However, it's sad that music began stagnating in the 1990s and has severely regressed since then. I'm generalizing, of course. There may be some great new music out there somewhere ... but "they sure don't make 'em like they used to." I'm sure most everyone will agree with that.
You made my wife’s morning! This has been “our song” for 47 years! Merry Christmas,TE, and thank you!
Bravo!!!! One of me and my wife’s dating songs. The fall of 1973, the original came out. Beautiful arrangement.
Check it out. They’re playing it right now.
“before Cetera started writing songs.”
It is unfortunate they couldn’t keep the basic energy within the band after they made it and we starting to develop new areas, like work with the Beach Boys and other groups.
But the band broke down into two different theologies with the musicians wishing to use more instrumentals and the vocalists, generally Cetera, wanting to go more toward vocals. The fences were built, and while going through another of a series of drug binges, it blew up. Chris Pinnick left about the same time feeling he was not even considered a major part of the group. They were having their problems at that time even though they were putting out great charts. But the separation of theory finally poisoned individuals within the group and the trails split.

There may be great music being made, but rock music has basically hit the end-of-life stage, where any new music is merely a derivative of what came before.
People may be writing great symphonies now, but why bother, when you’ve got the works of Beethoven and Bach, etc., out there.
We’ve reached that point with rock music.
This is some concert. They are rocking it.
Yes they are.
