Check out Chicago's performance of the tune, "I'm A Man", which, was originally recorded, by their contemporaries, The Spencer Davis Group, and written by Steve Winwood and Jimmy Miller. While the Spencer Davis version, was a blues rock number, and Chicago's version, kept that same formula. The players in their horn section, for this piece, played percussion. The personnel on the record, includes:
Terry Kath: lead & background vocals, fuzzed wah wah electric guitar
Peter Cetera: lead & background vocals, bass
Robert Lamm: lead & background vocals, Hammond organ
Danny Seraphine: drums
Jimmy Pankow: trombone
Lee Loughnane: trumpet
Walt Parazaider: tenor saxophone
The horn players also played percussion, with Pankow on cowbell, Loughnane on claves, and Parazaider on tambourine. Danny Seraphine played maracas on the track as well. However, it is not clear if they were recorded, during the actual drum solo, or, overdubbed, later on. Yours truly, is seeing Chicago, with Earth, Wind, & Fire, in concert, tonight. Stay tuned, for a review of the gig.
