"Listen To the Music", by the Doobie Brothers, and "25 Or 6 to 4" by Chicago.

Have you ever heard "Without You" by the Doobies? (Listen here). You wouldn't know it was the same band. It's an amazing, hard-rocking number, best appreciated at ear-splitting levels.

I love "25 or 6 to 4," but "Feeling Stronger Every Day" is my favorite Chicago tune. It never fails to pick me up. The funniest part of the song, if you listen closely, is the "it's a gas, gas, gas" backing vocal. "It's a gas" sure sounds dated.

For some good Doobies I'd recommend the Vices/Habits album and Stampede. Songs such as Road Angel, Neal's Fandango. Any Doobies, pre-Michael MacDonald.

I was The Biggest Chicago fan when I was in High School. Everything they did was (and still is)tops in my book.

One of the fondest memories I have is one of the only times I carried the ball in a football game, the band busts into "25 Or 6 to 4", and the music pumps me up for an extra 15 yds and a touchdown. The only touchdown I scored in my sophomore year.

Chicago with Terry Kath was awesome. They just should have kept Cetera away from the mike.
