I am looking for the original recording

https://soundcloud.com/user-715225765/at-ostrava-in-1971-i-am-looking-for-the-original-recording

This is the Czech adaptation (1971), I'm looking for the original English recording.
Do you recognize this tune ? Maybe it is a snippet of Chicago's repertoire. 
Thank you in advance for your comments.

I did it !  It is Ballin' Jack - "Telephone".
On the first album from 1970.

that band was relatively ignored in its day, but i bet the album holds up as fine blues-rock yet today.

The group is practically unknown in the Czech Republic.  
Not surprisingly, identifying the original was difficult for me.
I've also listened to its second album now, I like it more than the first.

And for the record, their debut contains yet another version of 'Hold On'. Don't think it cracked Billboard though.
