Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Pennsylvania TedThe National is back in Chicago this Summer......and, that is great. What is even greater about Chi-town, is the music of the Jazz-Rock group that originated in Chicago. The CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY (CTA) 1st released their album in the Spring of 1969. Most people remember this fabulous band as "CHICAGO". CTA's album signature Song was...."Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is ?" 1st quiz....Why did CTA change their band's name to "CHICAGO" ? 2nd quiz....What is the real meaning of the CHICAGO's album signature Song...."25 Or 6 To 4" ? ? T-Rex TED <img src="http://www.freephotoserver.com/v001/tedzan/albumchicago.jpg">

Posted By: Jodi Birkholm1. They were sued by the actual Chicago Transit Authority. 2. The way I hear it is that it is about somebody "burning the candle at both ends" (as in "trying hard to stay awake", etc.). The title should almost read "25 (or 26) Mintues to 4:00 A.M."

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: daryleI have idea as to the answers but that album is great. I collect albums/records and have the 1st 5 Chicago albums. Totally different sound from the familiar sound they had the late 70s and 80s...... OH.......matter of fact............I'm spinning Gordon Lightfoot's album called "Gord's Gold" as I type this.............Great

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmYes, a totally different sound. Much better than the "wimpy" Peter Cetera stuff. It reminds me of what happened to Genesis after Peter Gabriel left and Fidgety Phil Collins took over the helm. Ted, if you like Chicago, you must also be a fan of Lighthouse. Much along the same lines as BS&T and Chicago, but, imho, more talented. They were a Canadian group that were around during the same wonderful period in music. Their drummer lives in my hometown. Unfortunately, Chicago lost Terry Kath to a game of Russian roulette and Lighthouse lost their talented lead singer Bob McBride to an extensive heroin addiction. Daryle, Lightfoot is the best songwriter in the history of mankind--Bob Dylan himself said so! I've been a fan of his ever since I was old enough to figure out how to drop a needle onto a 33.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: daryleJodi, I would agree with Dylan. Lightfoot is great. I just bought 4 Lightfoot albums Sunday. I can just see Gordon and Croce sitting together...........wouldn't that be amazing?

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmActually, Croce got his big break through Gord's bassist John Stockfish! Small world, and I love Croce nearly as much as Gord. Neil Young and Joni Mitchell are also at the top of my list.

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmGranted, the Buckinghams have been around forver, but they're kind of a drag.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Frank WakefieldTo fine tune the answer up there, the municipal CTA threatened legal action against the musical CTA, and with that, and their success with that first album, the musical CTA decided to change their name rather than get mired up in a legal action. And Robert Lamm's lyrics and song name reference the artist's efforts at 3:35am or 3:36am... a bit before 4am being a good creative crunch time for a musical artist. I wore out my first CTA album and my first two second silver albums out... played them continuously over a stereo through big speakers in our basement, as my buddies and I shot pool, talked crap, played cards, talked more crap... good times. For star of the class, and I don't know the answer to this, but 'doesn't anybody know' what the meaning is behind Questions 67 & 68??? What was that about? I was a DJ, I know a lot of the stuff, piles about McCartney being dead, but no idea about Q's 67 & 68.

Posted By: Pennsylvania TedTo refresh your minds here are the lyrics to...... CHICAGO's 2nd album......25 Or 6 To 4 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 Staring blindly into space Getting up to splash my face Wanting just to stay awake Wondering how much I can take Should I try to do some more 25 or 6 to 4 Feeling like I ought to sleep Spinning room is sinking deep Searching for something to say Waiting for the break of day 25 or 6 to 4 25 or 6 to 4 CHICAGO's Beginnings album......Questions 67 and 68 Can this feeling that we have together Oooh, Suddenly exist between Did this meeting of our minds together Oooh, Happen just today, somewhere I'd like to know, Can you tell me -- please don't tell me It really doesn't matter anyhow It's just that the thought of us so happy Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing Was your image in my mind so deeply Was your image in my mind so deeply Oooh, other places fade away blocking memories of unhappy hours Oooh, Leavin' just a burnin' love I'd like to know, Can you tell me -- please don't tell me It really doesn't matter anyhow It's just that the thought of us so happy Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing Yes it does now baby Can this lovin' we have found within us Oooh, Suddenly exist between Did we somehow try to make it happen Oooh, Was it just a natural thing I'd like to know, Can you tell me -- please don't tell me It really doesn't matter anyhow It's just that the thought of us so happy Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing Yes it does now baby Questions 67 and 68 Here you go FRANK, try figuring this one out.

Posted By: Pennsylvania TedI was at a CHICAGO concert in their early days (very early 1970's). Then we saw them here in Pennsy in 1992 at the Valley Forge Music Fair (4th row seats). Some different faces, but they had not missed a beat in those intervening 20+ years...... Great Sounds. TED Z

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonAs long as we are getting into Rock n Roll trivia - two questions, one I expect to get answered quickly, the other one is a toughie. 1 - Where did the Beatles play their last concert? 2 - What was the highest paid act at Woodstock? = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Unknown author -- We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember. No retreat baby, no surrender. The Boss

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Rich KleinAfter all, they did a concert on the Abbey Road roof c. early 1969 but wasn't their last concert with paid attendance at Candlestick Park? Regards Rich

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: AnonymousCandlestick Park.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmRich, 1. Candlestick Park 2. Ravi Shankar (as far as I know, the ONLY paid act).

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonCandlestick is correct. Shankar is not. As far as I know most/all the acts at Woodstock were paid. I saw at auction years ago Janis Joplin's Woodstock contract. She is not the trivia answer. = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Unknown author -- We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember. No retreat baby, no surrender.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: AnonymousI thought it was Hendrix.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonNot Hendrix. = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Unknown author -- We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember. No retreat baby, no surrender. The Boss

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmOK,l I might be thinking of some other concert that Bill Graham promoted. My guess then would be The Who.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonNot The Who. I knew this would be a tough one <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>. The answer kinda surprised me too,when I had read it some years ago. Though they were very big at the time. = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Unknown author -- We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmIt couldn't have been CSNY, as it was only their second gig. I doubt it was the Dead. I'll take a wild stab--Sha Na Na? (You did say "they"!)

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonSmart of you to notice "they" but your answers are wrong <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>. = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: AnonymousJust did a google search and the first site I found also says it was Hendrix. By the time the concert had gotten underway, the site was virtually impossible to reach by car, and many performers flew to the site by helicopter. Hendrix and his band ended up making the trip in two station wagons. He was unhappy about the media reports of the size of the gathering, and by 4:00 on Sunday, was refusing to play. The fee, $18,000, was small by his standards, though he was the highest-paid performer at the festival. EDITED TO ADD ANOTHER The headline act at Woodstock was Jimi Hendrix. it stated in his contract that no other band would follow his act. and he was also the highest paid performer too

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Richard SimonIf your information about Hendrix is correct then the book or magazine article I read was wrong, but I did read a story that said that Blood, Sweat and Tears was the highest paid act. I just read that Hendrix got $32,000 and was the highest paid. There are conflicting stories on the web, one says $18K, one says $32K. = I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Unknown author -- We made a promise.

Monday Nite TRIVIA quiz......CHICAGO

Posted By: Jodi BirkholmWell, Santana hadn't been around very long, so they probably wouldn't have charged much. Let's see...other "they's" <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> .... why can I only think of solo acts now?! Blast! Sebastian (resplendent with LSD-induced drool crust at the corner of his mouth), Havens, Guthrie....groups, darn it, groups....call me Cobb's nefarious biographer, I'm Stumped.
