^ Weird intro.

That's called The Machine ....... they used it on stage mostly, the studio recording wasn't released until Rhino released their Just The Right Sound anthology

"I am a consistent low-range modulator"

Sehr cool!

I'm not familiar with the Rhino anthology. I meant that Jerry Scheff played bass on the original single from 1966.

With Jerry mentioned, his son's Jason moving tribute to him fits right here:



Scheff Sr. played on this Scheff Jr. composition at the invitation of Chicago without knowing the lyrics, the finished song was only played to him afterwards over the phone which had him start crying ...  


Come, let's talk just you & me
For once just let me be.
The little boy you used to know.
Relive that summer's bliss.
Cause they came no more like this.
Those were the days,
the days when love was still in style.

All I ever dreamed I'd be
is what you are to me.
Bigger than Elvis.
And for all the missing years,
a memory reappears.
Bigger than Elvis.

I saw you on TV.
The king, you were to me.
Could you feel me watching you?
At times my heart got mad,
only heros are allowed
to run free, that they could come back inside of me.

All I ever dreamed I'd be,
is what you are to me.
Bigger than Elvis.
And for all the missing years,
a memory reappears.
Bigger than Elvis.

We know the sadness of goodbyes
must be the one that's bringing tears to your child's eyes.

Oh, from now on I'll walk with you
making music like you do.
Would you believe I always knew?

You were never hard to take
in some mysterious way
Bigger than Elvis
And for all the missing years
your memory reappears
Bigger than Elvis.

Now I've found the missing years,
forgotten all my tears.
I've found the missing years


I saw Chicago this summer. I wasn't expecting much, came for the opener Blood, Sweat & Tears really, but good as Blood, Sweat & Tears were, Chicago were justly the headliner. It was more than two hours of all their music old and new played exceedingly well and fresh, with huge drive and passion. I became a convert. And Jason is not only an excellent bassplayer but also a great singer doing both the Cetera era and his own stuff full justice.

And I was reacting to your "weird intro" comment .....

LOL, Freddie Garrity was one of a kind, wasn't he? "I'm Telling You Now" is still one of my favorite sappy songs.

I think there might be a sexual undertone with that Adolf Hitler dog, a woman and a Green Beret watching? Let me tell you I am very disturbed by it all.

Don't know what Nazareth did Stateside, but they were big here for a few years in the 70's. They still tour now with original singer "Dangerous" Dan McCafferty & bassist Pete Agnew. This is the only time I've seen him playing an EB3

These days he's an Alembic man........ I'll be seeing them with my son in 3 weeks - and Dan still las THAT voice 40 years later.

 Nazareth did well in the states, Hair Of The Dog was a big album for them. Now your Messing With a SOB and Love Hurts were big hits. I had forgotten what a great sounding band they are.
