Chase (1971)
Jazziana
Our high school jazz band played this last year, and now we're playing it in marching band this year. It's so fun to play! I just love it.

One of my favorite songs of all times! What a great loss when we lost Bill Chase and his band! This is a timeless tune, I just wish it got more radio play time! Classic rock stations should play this often.

You think Lynard Skynard had it bad when their plane crashed? Well, actually it was bad; but this entire group, Chase, were all killed in a plane crash on August 8, 1974 near Jackson, Minnesota.

Wow....I played this in high school too -- in the mid-1970s! Classics never wear out! (But why can't I find this on iTunes!?!?!)

The final little stab at the end always seemed to me to be a homage to Iron Butterflys' INAGADADAVIDA...maybe...maybe not!
