I played in a jazz rock band in the early 70s. We did Chicago and the crowds love that type of music. Now many years later it's great to see people still love the songs. That and Tower of Power..it does not get any better than that.
Makes me think of that scene in the movie Little Nicky

Chicago! The incredible fusion of Rock/Jazz Horns with intricate cord progressions and complex percussion rhythms. Awesome!

My brother and I were cracking up, he noticed that guy mumbling in the background, and he's right. I love this song but now I hear that every time
Underrated classic, and I do agree with the "Peanuts" comment.

The intro to this song reminds me of "Peanuts".
when the band chicago is mentioned this is the first song that pops in my head.
Such a simple song, yet catchy you can't help but sing along, Love it!!
