This is the oldest Chicago footage in the collection. It was recorded on August 31, 1969 (four months after their debut album was released). This was filmed at the Texas Motor Speedway in Lewisville, TX (just outside Dallas) as the band was participating in the Texas International Pop Festival. It's estimated that between 100,000-150,000 attended this 3 day festival. You'll notice that Walt Parazaider has a sub in this footage. This old hippie footage always had a tendency to have the video and the audio out of sync for "artistic purposes". I wish they hadn't done this, but it's still classic footage.

I wouldn't even be born for another 13 years and I know this song (and many other great Chicago songs) It is truly great music that stands the test of time!
I was there all three days of this terrific festival that occurred just two weeks after Woodstock, w most of the same acts plus some. The video quality is rough, but it does capture a great moment 40 years ago.
I was a year younger, 5 years old at the time, I think we know this song because it is played on many stations to this day. It's a wonderful song to listen to after a frustrating today -- like today was for me.
