1978 single by Chicago
"Alive Again" is a song written by James Pankow for the group Chicago and recorded for their album Hot Streets (1978), with Peter Cetera singing lead vocals. The first single released from that album, it reached No. 14 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.[1] In Canada, "Alive Again" spent two weeks at No. 11.[2]
"Alive Again" was Chicago`s first new single after their split with producer James William Guercio. It was also their first single after the accidental death of Terry Kath; Donnie Dacus played guitar on the recording.[3]
Recording and production
According to Mike Stahl, Chicago`s live audio engineer at the time, members of Chicago`s rhythm section–Robert Lamm, Donnie Dacus, Peter Cetera, and Danny Seraphine–came into the studio, started jamming, and played what they thought was a run-through of "Alive Again" but which producer Phil Ramone had recorded. Despite recording the rhythm track ten more times, the run-through had the "feel" he was looking for, so it made the album.[4]
After the recording of "Alive Again" had been completed, Chicago`s brass section recorded with the Bee Gees on their song, "Tragedy". Inspired by his work with Barry Gibb, James Pankow rewrote the brass charts for "Alive Again" and the song was rerecorded. Mike Stahl said the new arrangements gave the song a whole new "feeling" and "sparkle".[5]
Cash Box said it has " aggressive horns, high riding vocals, tight and melodic structure and a bright optimism."[6] Record World said that the song "rocks stronger than previous [Chicago] releases with the guitar work and Cetera`s lead vocals of prime interest."[7]
