That's how us old schoolers kept time ..we said the minutes to the next hour ...so hey is almost 25 or 26 minutes to 4am . The horns and especially that guitar solo is just amazing musicianship .

Perhaps the greatest AMERICAN musical talent assembled, but there are/were a half dozen British/European bands from that era whose talent dwarfed the bands most played on US radio. YES, Zeppilin, Floyd, Tull, King Crimson, Who, ELP, Supertramp, Queen, Focus, Moody Blues, Alan Parsons...not to mention the goddamb Beatles! The best (white) US bands OTE were Chicago, Steely Dan, Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Grand Funk Railroad, Jefferson Airplane/Starship and (arguably) Kansas. (and yes, FUCK the goddamb Eagles!!!) Significantly more talented and musically influential were black US artists such as Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Little Richard, Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Michael Jackson, and Maurice White/EWF,

Prime example of what we got to grow up listening to. Chicago, Yes, Zeppelin, Boston...and the variety was incredible...America, Bread, Doobies, Skynyrd, singer songwriters like Harry Chapin, James Taylor, Jim Croce, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins...to just scratch the surface! We were definitely spoiled, but we will always have this music to remember it all. Thanks for reacting and, please, check out the entire Tanglewood concert of Chicago from 1970. Terry Kath was not only a beast on the guitar but an incredible vocalist as well. He and Peter Cetera, one of the all-time great Bass palyers, were both great singers as was Robert Lamm. That concert is an amazing capture of the talent on display every time this band performed.

TNT, this song is a favorite of mine too. I am 76 yo who grew up with Chicago Transit Authority, later becoming just Chicago. I would strongly suggest you listen to there first album which was a double album and I would start with the first song on side 1, it's called "Introduction" . This record introduces the listener to a variety of different types of music, as well as each of the band members doing a solo. I know you will love this. BTW, the song 25 or 6 to for was written about writing a song at 25 or 26 minutes to 4:00 AM. Just in case you were wondering. Great reaction, loved it. Peace Bill.

It’s challenging to explain to those who didn’t grow up in the 1970’s how critical these songs were to our lives, our childhoods. It does my heart a lot of good to see young folk rediscovering the 1970’s. Keep in mind, young folks. If you see an old fart like myself listening to some 1970’s music with tears in our eyes, just know that were not crazy. Were just reliving some childhood nostalgia. 🍻 EWM

I was 13 when the Beatles were on the Sullivan show. The world changed for black & white TV to Technicolor. All that came after the British Invasion was progression on the basics, sex-drugs & rock & roll. Disco nearly killed rock in the 70's but led by ZZ Top and Stevie Ray Vaughan it stayed alive. It died the day MTV switched off music videos and went strictly to rap in 1989.

What drew me to this video? Simple: you reacting to one of the best songs from the best era of my favorite band in the history of EVER!! They had it all: great music and lyrics, three incredible lead vocalists, a straight fire horn section, a phenomenal drummer (after whom I patterned all my drumming technique as a young drummer), and possibly the most criminally underrated and underappreciated guitar player of all time. Jimi Hendrix, for whom Chicago opened in their very early years, once told one of their horn players "Your guitar player is better than me." Please, please react to my favorite Chicago song, "Make Me Smile." You'll get more of that amazing horn section, Danny's fantastic drumming, Terry's insane guitar skills, and also his "white Ray Charles" lead vocals. You'll love it!!

The point I hear few mention is how the record solo and the Tanglewood solo are completely different.

That's how he developed his distinctive vocal style. If you want to copy it, you have to keep your mouth almost closed or not wide open. Funny!!

Bro you Have to Watch the Live version at Tanglewood! Unfortunately the Great Terry Kath killed himself via a Gun. I've heard versions of the reasons why. Some say suicide but apparently it was an accident. I know from FIRST hand experience people go through things. My Youngest baby Boy murdered himself, leaving behind 3 children and 1 adopted Child for no apparent reason. This song reminds me of my Son every time I hear it. Your a Good Dude T. 😑🤔❤️

This was a Huge Ginormous Hit for Chicago and played on every AM/FM Radio station around this nation in 1970', they were on every TV show playing music with this Hit (Remember only 13 TV channels back then Kids Lol) and it is "Still" played on Classic Rock radio station everyday in this country TNT, tune to your FM Classic Rock station and enjoy all the great Classic bands of the 1960s-70s ! 📻👍🎶🎼✌

I was in the 8th grade when I first heard this on the Radio. When I got to High School, I was in the Marching Band (Trombone) playing it! I Loved Bands that had kick-@$$ Horns!

If you really want to appreciate the song, you have to be on your 4th beer, or second whiskey (since 2 am), and crank it at 3:30 am. Trust me.

Got to appeal it. They got me on pills that actually work. Car broke, rent just went up $100, SSDI got denied, I can't work. But it doesn't effect me because of my medication. Sorry again for being an asshole. I didn't know how to deal with all the bullshit. Thanks T🤘

Chicago 2 was my introduction to Chicago in 1970, I was only 5. This album is superb from start to finish, no fillers! Make Me Smile is my absolute favorite Chicago song, Terry Kath on lead vocals and crazy guitar work! 25 or 6 to 4 is pretty much what most people gravitate to. It's a great song, but my favorite is In The Country! In 25 or 6 to 4, it's Peter Cetera on Lead Vocals and Bass Guitar. My favorite lead vocalist, though, is Terry Kath (R.I.P.), we lost him way too soon, and his rhythm and lead guitar on this song is phenomenal! Robert Lamm on keyboards and lead vocals. Danny Seraphine on drums. The horns: James Pankow on trombone, Walter Parazaider on woodwinds, and Lee Louchnane on trumpet. Chicago was the first group as a 5 year old in 1970 that I really loved and appreciated! The first 5 albums in my collection: Chicago 2, Spyro Gyra Catching The Sun, Little River Band with Sleeper Catcher, Boston's debut, Kansas with Leftoverture. Soon after that, Styx with The Grand Illusion, Journey with Departure, and ACDC's Back In Black.

Graduated high school in 1975. There was a lot of great music throughout the '70s. Chicago, Three Dog Night, and Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show were definitely some of my many favorites through high school.
