The Terry Kath Experience

Growing up, Terry Kath was one of my favorite guitar players even though he was trapped in the cheese factory band, Chicago. This documentary shows how good he really was and how good Chicago was before they became the scourge of every high school dance. (If I could've made 'Color My World' a physical being I would've strangled it to death with my bare hands.) Anyway it's a good doc on a great guitar player, with nice memories shared by family and friends. It's a fun watch.

This movie more than does justice to Terry Kath, an artist whose voice and guitar jumped out at me on the early Chicago albums. I knew how good he truly was when I heard the band's work after Kath's death, and clearly part of the soul and vibe of the band had left as well. Jimi Hendrix once said that Kath was a better guitarist than he was-that speaks volumes. But, as with so many great rockers, talent came with recklessness. Kath wore it on his face like Jim Morrison. Considering Chicago's decades of popularity, I am surprised at how underrated this man still is. This loving portrait by a daughter who never knew him is well deserved.

Unfortunately, the loss of Terry Kath at such a young age left so many undiscovered pinnacles in the music world, as well as his interpersonal life as well. This film does great justice to both. It's a must see film.

Insightful film, very telling that Peter Cetera and James Guercio appeared in this film and not in the Chicago documentary Now More Than Ever

Chicago was a great band. They were a big band rock group, they played and recorded great Pop tunes. But the Documentary should've played more of the music. It was disappointing to hear a lot of talk, especially when some of that I know is not true. Jimi Hendrix never said he was the best guitar player he ever heard. He said the band was the best band he ever heard... Also, the search for the guitar was confusing, because she knew her grandmother had a bunch of his guitars. Yet, that's the last place she checked. Anyone watching a documentary of a band they liked would want to hear more of the music.
