Infinity is the most ambitious vocal project Cymatics has ever taken on. High quality vocals are one of the most difficult assets for producers to find. Finding someone who can sing well is one thing, but getting a quality recording on a high end mic with good mixing is something that not many producers have access to.
Niche Audio are back with another must have sample collection for the creative producer. We are proud to present VITAL VOCALS, an exceptionally useful collection of one shot vocal hits for your music productions, regardless of genre.
Vital Vocals contains 256 one shot vocals compiled from almost every Niche Audio pack released to date. Whilst the pack isn't genre specific like most of our packs, we are confident that regardless of your style you will always be able to find a vocal in this pack to fit your songs.
Niche Audio goes much further than supplying a folder of one shot wavs. The packs vocal one shots have been chosen, named and organised in to 16 individual kits for Maschine2, Ableton Live Drum racks and Logic EXS24 sampler patches.
Kath struggled with health problems and drug abuse towards the end of the 1970s. He died in January 1978 from an unintentional self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The bereavement tempted Chicago to disband, but they ultimately decided to resume as is signified by their memorial song "Alive Again". To commemorate his musicianship, they issued the 1997 album The Innovative Guitar of Terry Kath. In 2016, Kath's daughter Michelle Sinclair released the documentary The Terry Kath Experience, which chronicles his life and Chicago's early years.[3]
In 1966, Kath joined a cover band called the Missing Links,[8] taking Parazaider and Seraphine with him, and started playing clubs and ballrooms in Chicago on a regular basis.[17] Parazaider's friend at De Paul University, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, also sat in with the band from time to time.[18] Kath's compatriot James William Guercio (who later became Chicago's producer) was lead guitarist in one of two road bands performing on The Dick Clark Show with the Missing Links.[4][19] Kath received an offer from Guercio to play bass for the Illinois Speed Press and move to Los Angeles, but declined as he considered the guitar his main instrument and wanted to sing lead. He stayed with Parazaider, Seraphine, and Loughnane instead,[20] who quickly recruited trombonist James Pankow from De Paul and vocalist/keyboardist Robert Lamm.[18] Kath sang the lower range of lead vocals in the group[18] in a style reminiscent of Ray Charles.[20] The group practiced at Parazaider's parents' basement and changed its name to The Big Thing. With the addition of singer and bassist Peter Cetera of The Exceptions, they moved to Los Angeles and signed with Columbia Records, renaming the band Chicago Transit Authority. The real Chicago Transit Authority objected to the band's use of the name so in mid-1969 the name was shortened to Chicago.[21]
Kath also played lead guitar and sang lead vocals on the closing song "Tell Me" in the 1973 drama movie Electra Glide in Blue. The song was used in the final episode of the television series Miami Vice.[41]
Kath enjoyed target shooting and by 1978 was regularly carrying guns.[42] Around 5:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on Monday, January 23, after a party at the home of roadie and band technician Don Johnson, in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, California, Kath began to play with his guns. He spun his unloaded .38 revolver on his finger, put it to his temple, and pulled the trigger. Johnson warned Kath several times to be careful. Kath picked up a semi-automatic 9-mm pistol and, leaning back in a chair, said to Johnson, "Don't worry about it ... Look, the clip is not even in it." His last words were, "What do you think I'm gonna do? Blow my brains out?"[38] To calm Johnson's concerns, Kath showed him the empty magazine. Kath then replaced the magazine in the gun, put the gun to his temple and pulled the trigger. Apparently unbeknownst to Kath, the gun had a round in the chamber. He died instantly from the gunshot,[38] at the age of 31, eight days before his 32nd birthday.
The group's members were devastated over losing Kath and strongly considered disbanding, but were persuaded by Doc Severinsen, musical director of the Tonight Show band, to continue.[49] Kath's position as guitarist in Chicago was filled first by Donnie Dacus,[50] then by Chris Pinnick, Dawayne Bailey, and Keith Howland. At Chicago concerts, original members Lee Loughnane (trumpet) and Robert Lamm (keyboards) have, on occasion, performed lead vocals originally sung by Terry Kath.
