Terry Kath
A goddamn genius. The founding member, lead singer, and "musical leader" of the rock band Chicago. Renowned for his soulfully gritty "white Ray Charles" vocals and explosive guitar work, he's the one Jimi Hendrix called the greatest guitarist of his era. b.

Chicago II
Make me smile. Chicago II is released on January 26, 1970. It's a double-album .. just like the debut album. They had to change their name from that of the debut album -- Chicago Transit Authority -- after a threatened lawsuit from the actual Chicago Transit Authority in their hometown. Listen to Chicago II on Amazon Music ... #Chicago #chicagoII #70srock #classicrock #rock #rrockmusic #70srock #music #musicsky #musiciansky #terrykath

"Ты думаешь, я хочу застрелиться?"
"Не бойся, он не заряжен".
Эти две фразы, сказанные Терри Кэтом в последнюю минуту своей жизни, чëрным огнем выжженны в истории рок-музыки.
В этот момент он держал в руках не гитару Fender Telecaster, а револьвер Smith&Wesson.
Это было наутро после алкогольной ночи, когда голова и душа равно опухли от тоски, это было на затянувшейся серой полосе жизни, когда его мучили разлад с женой, разлад в группе и разлад вообще, общий разлад человека с миром.
Всё это было так давно и столько раз рассказано разными голосами в разных местах, что боль стëрлась и уже почти неощутима.
И снова Терри Кэт в своей вечной голубой джинсе выходит перед нами, чтобы сыграть на гитаре то, что он умел играть.
Рывок, стремление, запутанная сложность жизни, прорыв в то пространство, где нет тяготения и ни душа, ни тело ничего не весят и могут лететь всë быстрее и быстрее по рваным линиям и зигзагам звука.
Но прежде с силой толкнут воздух и засияют чистым золотом духовые - три трубы находящейся в зените группы Chicago.

Терри Кэт, человек января (31.01.1946 - 23.01.1978)

25 or 6 to 4

Happy 80th birthday to Robert Lamm of Chicago who wrote this contemplative song early one morning 55 years ago.
“Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4”#chicago #robertlamm #terrykath #vinceneil #umphreysmcgee #earthwindandfire #peanutsgang

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?

55 years ago today, the Chicago Transit Authority released their critically acclaimed debut album.
“People runnin’ everywhere
Don’t know where to go
Don’t know where I am
Can’t see past the next step
Don’t have time to think past the last one
Have no time to look around
Just run around, run around think why” -
Riprendo qui un capolavoro dei #Chicago nel loro secondo irripetibile album eseguito dal vivo, ovvero la suite "Ballet for a Girl in #Buchannon" che praticamente è un mix sublime di #folk, #country, #brass, #alternative, #rock ed è anche #progressive secondo me. Incredibile: anni che l'ascolto e sempre mi stupisce
Musica che sembra fatta da alieni, che trascende i generi e i tempi

Dal secondo album dei #chicago dal vivo la loro inarrivabile grandezza.
Ogni volta che vedo e sento il genio di #TerryKath cantare e suonare, mi viene un tonfo al cuore pensando a come sia tragicamente morto 😞
[per chi non lo sapesse: ubriaco si è puntato la pistola alla testa per gioco pensando che fosse scarica, ma non lo era... 😭 ]
Tragico e bello purtroppo vanno spesso a braccetto.

Ted Tocks Covers = Year 6 - Day 8
Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
45 years ago #TerryKath of #Chicago died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. A tragic loss. Enjoy this thought-provoking piece of music by #RobertLamm.
And I was walking down the street one day
(People runnin' everywhere)
Being pushed and shoved (don't know where to go)
By people trying to beat the clock (I don't know where I am)
Oh no, so I just don't know (I can't see past the next step) -
