Personal Struggle Terry Kath was already emerging as the band’s wild center, a gifted player with the kind of intensity and recklessness that later became part of his legend.
-
Band Drama The group’s huge lineup and mix of rock, jazz, and horns gave them ambition few bands had, but it also meant constant tension over identity, writing, and direction.
-
Legal Trouble The band had to shorten its name to Chicago after the real Chicago Transit Authority threatened legal action over use of the city agency’s name.
