Chicago Horns: "Naked in the Garden of Allah" session
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 янв 2014
- ABOUT THIS VIDEO: During Chicago's summer 2013 tour, Robert Lamm asked collaborator Trent Gardner (Magellan) to write a horn arrangement for "Naked in the Garden of Allah" (Lamm/Linderman Chicago single) as the prog rock nature of the bridge section was "right in Gardner's wheelhouse", according to Lamm. Once the chart was completed, it was emailed to the band. The Chicago horns spent a "day off", between shows, rehearsing and recording the parts with Robert Lamm and Hank Linderman. This video shows a few clips from their session. For those who have the full track to listen to, it may be of interest, at least to some musicians following the band, to SEE THE WRITTEN CHART -posted as reference...all three parts -Trombone, Alto Sax, Trumpet. www.chicagotheband.com/ngahorn... Due to the angular and intense nature of the section, it helps bring context to the lyrics and the "east vs west" clash in the song's sub text. The mic from the video camera supplies the audio, so the viewer can't "hear what the band can" in headphones, but the general sense of "how parts evolve into refined works" accurately represents what the band has done for so long...work it! Notice the lack of synths and samplers? Actual air moving thru real instruments...

After all those many, many years these guys still really love making music! It's very motivating!
Ladies and gentlemen when you're in a band this is the kind of stuff you do more than anything else with your band mates.
This is the real stuff.
The BEST horn section in the business!! It doesn't get better than this.
A class act.
Marco Marrone agree
Chops Horns who sometimes play with LMT Connection are enjoyable too
1:20 - 1:28...........they should have put THAT on the album instead of the actual horns...............HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
The best horn section in the world! Thanks guys for giving me so much joy and happiness!❤️🎶❤️🎶❤️
I interviewed Jim once at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Terrific guy and a fine interview. Best to you Jim!
Amazing. One of the coolest tunes and BEST HORN MOMENTS in the band's history, and they share the charts with us. I've been delirious since this song came out!
James, Walt and Lee; The Gold Standard,
The horn chart is nuts! Fantastic playing too.
Great to see these charts being shown in the learning stages...also great to see this horn section not taking it easy, but taking on music that kicks them in the butt...at least for a little while.
It's a neat glimpse into how it went in the studio back in the day!
“Naked In The Garden Of Allah” is a Robert Lamm masterpiece!
I love seeing this. These guys are still on fire.
Like always, technical but also musical.
Pankow style.
Fantastic !
Kicks ass. The "grease" is still there. This tune is edgy, eerie, and experimental--pure Lamm. Kudos to Trent Gardner for adding a great horn chart, plus the CHI horns for being able to play it.
The horns are SMOKIN' throughout Now. The entire album is a real organic mix... Free at Last and Allah are my favorites and stand up with the best of the Chicago recordings. The album is not so much back to the roots. but recapturing that edgy attitude that made Chicago great. Lamm seemed truly invigorated, too.
This is one nasty (good) and challenging chart! Really cool look at getting this track down.
Now is my favorite album of their since Chicago XI (Terry's last).
Chicago & The Beatles was my top 2 favorite bands of all time
Wonderful stuff, lads. Great to see this from behind the scenes.
"We can cut it in ANY key."
Hey Barry Seymour, "just keep sitting there man"...........
What recording was that on....I remember that quote
@@toddwalker4301 XXXVI "Now" album.
A treat seeing this legendary brass section developing its lines! Would have been nice to have the result a bit more "up front" in the final mix.
This is wonderful! Real music with chops :-)
Incredible horn section! The best!
YOU GUYS ARE WAY COOL!!! Love CHICAGO brass section!
Excelente todos bien por ustedes de MEXICO un saludo me encantan CHICAGO
La sezione fiati N1👏👏👏🎶🎵🎶 viva i Chicago
I think I just found my new favorite youtube video.
I think young people ARE getting fed up with what Jim calls "canned crap." I know I am. Hardly a day has gone by when I don't go to Planet Fitness for my workout and hear "Chandelier" by Sia. Even if she's a talented singer, the accompaniment can take a flying leap.
If they played a track from Now!, that would make this overgrown boy's day!
Geez, i wish i had friends i could do this with ...sigh
These 3 legends ARE the Chicago sound.
They backed up Terry Kath, Peter Cetera, and Robert Lamm.
Damn. I love the brass. Chicago was such a part of my life. I should say is a part of my life. Thanks boys!
Wonderful, amazing!!!!!!
yessiirrr
Chic@go, my favorite band since Chic@go Transit Authority !!!
Chops taste better than canned crap any day of the week!
Sounds like something from III !!
I love the "Still Gotta Prove" attitude that Jimmy indicates here with his comments. This is some of their secret sauce to sustained success. This, and of course someone at the onset of it all, named Jimmy Guercio to get 'em noticed/known.
But, I think this was their last stand. They promised there'd be more new music coming after Now. Then Jason and Tris left. Jason was one of their songwriters. I don't think they will make anymore new tunes. Their last album was 5 yrs ago. They're done.
@@lamarravery4094 Fortunately, they put out another Christmas albums (w/some original songs) and "Born for this Moment" Chicago XXXVII & XXXVIII respectively.
@@karensaldanha4760 Yes, got em both. They're still making music, their most current album sounds different, but pretty good. They still have it, I wonder if this will be James, Lee and Robert's last hurrah.
Bravo 👏❗
I can't believe that Lee can hit the high notes....................but he won't try the high note in Mongonucleosis during live shows.
Back to years when they were expirimenting musuc in 1969 all the way to the 1970's before they shift to rock ballads in the 80's.
I would love to have Kath (RIP), Seraphine, and Cetera back on stage.
Horns = Chicago
@@metalSpike Huh?
@@TimothyOBrien1958 Thanks for the insightful rebuttal. Who owns the name and signature sound, then? David Foster? Nope. Terry Kath? Dead. Seraphine? Sucked after VII. Bill Champlin? Hired hand. Responsible for their worst garbage (Look Away, please!) Cetera? Only the cheeseball stuff. Lamm? Ok, maybe Horns + Lamm
But for me it’s:
Loughnane, Pankow, Parazaider
All f’n day long
@@metalSpike Seraphine did NOT suck. Walt was a mental case at one time. The founder of the band, Danny, helped him. Lamb went mental too, and Danny helped him. Peter was not only the top voice, he was a kickass bassist. He had great lines. Lamb was the smooth tenor. Kath was the soul of the band. Danny was the foundation, the spine. Jimmy was the horn section. He wrote the horn arrangements. I did research papers in college on their music from a musicologist's POV. Chicago lost its soul when Kath died. After that, it slowly widdled away to basically a cover band with some original members. BTW, Walt doesn't play with them often anymore. Only Lee, Robert, and Jimmy are the originals. I think you know less of what you think you know.
anyone have or know where to find this chart??
NAKED IN THE GARDEN OF ALLAH video dychovej sekcie skupiny CHICAGO. Zázračný pohľad do zákulisia mojej obľubenej americkej skupiny a hudobníka Jamesa Pankowa, ktorý 20. augusta 2014 dovršil 67 rokov a je autorom úžasných hitov skupiny a aranžmá jednotlivých skladieb bez ktorých by to nebolo typické Chicago.
R.I.P. Trent Gardner.... :~(
Sounds like something from Chicago II. Wow.
Que hace una cáscara de banana sobre el monitor ???????
They've certainly got chops.
Chicago free
Oh man first few takes are way off time wise
'Get On this" much?
This was the last great effort by Chicago.
Doesn't it look like they're in a hotel suite? I wonder if they ever get noise complaints from fellow guests.
Certainly from Blood, Sweat & Tears fans.
Too good for Kath, but right for you!
That is some hairy but beautiful music guys!!
The Beatles inspired piece by Chicago
Who is God? Do they know?
Terry Kath was. Man, could that guy play his Fender Telecaster!
hahaha its almost a cartoon of bugs bunny,i love chicago music,but not in rehearsals...
Allah??????????? Wtf?
Why did they have to waste so many years on that commercial garbage that’s what I want to know.
sam powell because they wanted to make a good living besides just touring. Keeping up with the times.
@@MrJsfingers Exactly, but they weren't exactly making hit songs. They need to go back and do more jazzy stuff, but with a little rock and pop. They might be on the charts again, I think there's a need for their music, I know a lot of young people that karaoke to their old stuff.
You guys will allways rock thank you so much, I could just listen to you three practice all day long thank you.
Chops .Lots of chops, indeed.
However, I think time has proven that Chicago cannot recapture its heyday. With the constant flipping of members and the song writing all but outsourced. I haven't felt good about this band since the last album with Bill and Jason.
One thing that's great is losing Howland. A whimp who couldn't begin to compare with Dacus, let alone Kath.
I hope you guys retire soon and save us from another lame attempt at glory.
Sad but true.
