...a bit older than me, who was a big Chicago fan.
I'm A Man was his favorite song because he used to see them in the clubs when they were still The Big Thing, and the song was their big jam/production number.
Same thing after they became CTA but before they broke big. He used to go from club to club to see them when they came back to Chicago to perform.
He was nuts about their version.
