This not so obvious jam, after brief analysis, turned out to totes be jam-worthy. The sassy and brassy opening, the funky dance-able build up, and then the catchy chorus. Chicago made excellent use of horns, as all jazz-funk bands of the seventies had aspired to do. Chicago, however, combined their instrumental expertise with hyper-catchy songwriting skills.
I recommend throwing this jam on at the time of the party when things may be winding down and a dutchy is being passed around. These lush horns and sweet melody make for an excellent while just chillin. Having said that, I would not expect anyone to get up and dance like the peeps in the following video. It could happen, yes. But I would be prepared for dubious looks and rather weak attempts to sing along.
