Video is out of sync with audio. Also, I love Bill Champlin's vocals, and I respect what he did with this song as he's a monster vocalist, but I'd rather Robert Lamm had sang this one as it's just too much scatting and deviation from the original, and people come to hear Chicago play their songs traditionally as they were recorded --- otherwise, it's all just an improved Jazz concert.
Chicago's vocals have always been hit-or-miss live. Always, since the 60s. It's usually due to a bad mix more than bad singing. Like the vocals aren't even EQd. They just plug in the microphones and you get whatever you get. They are a fantastic band, so I have never understood their indifference to the live vocal sound. They could have fixed the mix when they did the mastering for the DVD audio, but apparently chose not to. At least they don't use backing tracks like Earth, WInd & Fire.
@gh9448 Right! I'm seeing Chicago in Paris again this year! They're touring Europe again! There's NO OTHER band like Chicago. They're still touring the USA with EW&Fire and the Doobie Brothers, the past years, touring Japan, Australia, Mexico, Brazil and now they're coming back to Europe! This band 's still standing strong, 'LIVE' ! From the 60's till now!
@marmont48 Sounds like something I'd have said to these douchebags complaining.They most likely can't sing or even play an instrument, yet they criticize. Probably dropped out of school in the 5th grade and pump gas at their local service station for a living.Seeing them next month,so can't wait.

@ txlastrebel ... if you can, then how come he's there and you're not? So easy to criticize, huh?

I always love it at the end when they all raise their horns it's so cool. I play trombone so I always love a good horn section.
