If you are a fan of CTA/Chicago/California Transit Authority or of pop music in general, you will enjoy this read. Ultimately, it is the rise/fall/rise story of Chicagos incredible drummer and founding member, Danny Seraphine. His personal journey, still in progress, puts him in a good place but the ride has been bumpy and bitterly dark in spots. I was repeatedly impressed with the depth of emotion shared as this high-strung, tempestuous kid off the streets of Chicago has been saved by his music multiple times over his life.In 1990, Seraphine was fired from the group he helped form in 1969, and helped propel to astonishing popular and critical acclaim. Chicago was a self-described “faceless” band composed of seven very musical individuals, and it was this tightly bound brotherhood that would create fresh new music for many years. Sadly in 1978, the death of their brilliant guitarist/writer/vocalist/onstage leader, Terry Kath, irreparably changed the group’s direction, drive and dynamics. Like other bands with loss, Chicago would carry on and over the years continue to morph into a new band with many new personnel, achieving varying levels of success and relevancy. Still, Seraphine’s exit meant cutting ties with arguably the finest jazz rock drummer of our time. No doubt things must have gotten bad. From Seraphine’s perspective, he describes the complex breakdown of the original brotherhood and the myriad issues that caused it all to change, but more importantly how it completely turned over his life, even forcing him out of his beloved music for a few years, as he had to take stock of things without his Chicago brothers and band. That there was a deep personal rejection from them and cowardice with the firing puts it mildly.Finally, we are taken to the present, to see how Seraphine has rebuilt and put his life back together, how he started playing again, and how the love of his family, fans and followers have brought public support for his newer projects. It is an impressive return. He seems to be in a good place at press time and I’m sure the writing process was therapeutic.[2016 update: I saw footage of Chicago’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year, and it was good to see Seraphine play with Chicago again. It was clearly a tense reunion with Peter Cetera abstaining, but noteworthy in that Danny brought along Terry Kath’s daughter, Michelle, for the induction.
