I loved Chicago. Always thought they should have hung it up after Kath's death. Ditto The Who after Keith Moon passed.
Terry Kath was the MAN! Manhandles that guitar.

One of the most underappreciated songs, vocals, hype-men, and riffs of all time.

Hmmm more rifs. We'll go back a little ways on this one. Malcolm (not Angus) takes the rif pretty much all the way through through. And you got Bon instead of Brian (on bagpipes no less). (much better IMO)

It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Want To Rock n Roll) - AC/DC

Something a little more current. Well at least this decade. A little opening riff. And you get Brittany's voice.

Always Alright - Alabama Shakes

And a somewhat newer song by Concrete Blonde. (I don't think I posted this one yet).

Boston, another group that was big during my college days. This song from their first album was being played LOUD when my parents were moving me into my dorm at WVU freshman year. Tom Sholz was quite the quitarist.

Has some good keyboard work in it too, if you are into that sort of thing.;)

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not really hearing any rifs???? Did I miss them?
