I'm sure somebody will correct me or find the exact quote, but i think they opened for Jimi and he commented on what a good guitarist he was We don't need no microwave http://www.facebook.com/rhastus.hybosky

The album still holds up well today...

...Thank goodness Rhino had the good sense to remaster/reissue it since Columbia didn't.

I think Jimi said Terry was the best guitarist he'd ever seen.

It's true. Jimi even went so far as to say that Terry Kath was better than he was! Jimi was a modest cat for being all that he was as a guitar player. I always think of the Dick Cavett appearance where Dick is trying to say that Jimi is one of the best around and Jimi replies, "How about the best in this chair?"

I think all of the Terry Kath era Chicago albums have their moments, but CTA is the most consistent by my tastes.

cool
