    Terry Kath was BA! I'm old enough to remember when '25 or 6 to 4' was released, and I was blown away then, and still am. *RIP Terry*

    Terry's guitar work on the Carnegie Hall and Tanglewood concerts is really mind blowing. He played with total abandon, and played long flowing leads that were nothing less than White Hot. He was truly blessed and so is everyone who digs what he did. Robert Lamm said it best...'Terry was my hero"....mine too!

      @rf396 Год назад +1

      ABSOLUTELY! His solo at Tanglewood on 25 or 6 to 4 is out of the stratosphere. The studio version could be argued to be THE best solo of all time on record and yet he demolishes it at Tanglewood.

    Great way to describe Terry's playing was incredibly fast "stream of consciousness". When he got going he seemed to be in a trance. The most intense player I have ever seen.

    25 or 6 to 4 was the first Chicago song I ever heard and one of the first songs I learned on guitar, Terry's playing on that song is just incredible and I always thought that he was such an underrated guitarist

    Very nice presentation. I was lucky enough to see him twice. Basically, he stood in one spot and played like an animal. A very talented one. I knew I was watching someone special. The whole band was great.

    I saw an interview with Robert Lamm where he said “Terry always improvised his solos live. And he would sometimes back himself into a corner musically, during a solo, and then would somehow muscle his way back out of it. “He played with raw power. Sometimes it looked like he might break the neck on his guitar.

    Jeff I've watched it seems countless how to play xxx on guitar and currently one on piano which I don't play but have divided to do a solo at my wedding in February. Anyway they are all just painfully long and it takes so long to get to the next part. You are of all the best (at least for me) I have seen. You are clear precise and you move at the right speed. Thanks
    Terry is as much the reason I play guitar today as any. I started a good bit before Chicago came out (I've been playing more than 50 years) but boy when they did. Chicago became my favorite band and Terry my favorite guitarist.

    @davidjudson6710 5 лет назад

    Well done. I've been working to play Terry's original solos and all of these tips are spot-on. For me at least, I can finally his recorded solos (25 or 6 to 4, Make Me Smile, Questions 67/68, etc.) at speed if I significantly reduce the actual right hand picking, instead using more hammering with my left. When I first tried to do these solos I was picking too many of the notes. Thanks for doing this!

  • @dennymcfastlane8530

    Should have played those Kath licks through a Pignose! Or, the Strat with a Bogen Pa overdriving the pre-amp of a Dual Showman~aka 'Free Form Guitar'. Which by the way is like having a Master Volume, which was unheard of in 1969. Also, if you watch this excellent movie...'Electra Glide in Blue', some of the CTA members are in it. And, ironically, Kath is the hippie that shotguns Robert Blake. Peter Cetera has some Motorcycle chase scenes also.

    Learn your CTA history. Jimi Hendrix told Chicago’s Sax/flute player Walter Parazaider that Terry was the best guitarist he ever heard. It’s on all the documentaries of the band and Terry specifically.

    • @truckerkevthepaidtourist
      @truckerkevthepaidtourist 5 лет назад +1

      from 1972 he mainly used the pignose amp he was one of the backers behind the pignose amp.. he believed in it.
      you can see lots of vintage ads with Terry playing the pig nose and holding the pig nose
      that's why the latter guitar he had was adorned with pig nose stickers

      michael All of those stories are BS. There is no record that he said that about anybody. Here is a Snopes article about it:
      www.snopes.com/fact-check/phil-keaggy/
      I believe the root of the myth is from an appearance he made on the Dick Cavett Show. Dick asked him how it felt to be the greatest guitarist in the world and Jimi got embarrassed and said, “Maybe the greatest guitarist in this chair now”. People began inserting other guitarists into the story.
