My man went on stage wearing nothing but Larry Bird shorts, tube socks, and sneakers, busted out one-man-bongo+keyboard solo, played tetherball with a mic stand, and then proceeded to Van Damme kick his way to the end of the song while playing the keyboard. Dude was definitely dressed for the occasion. 10/10. Would carry on again.
Couldn't have said it better. There must be some kind of award for this. I'm sure the groupies came up with something commensurate.
Now I remember why I had such a huge crush on Steve Walsh after seeing Kansas live several times in the late 70’s,,,whew, what a voice and body to match!! 😍
When I saw them I thought he was gonna bounce off the bench into the lights!
During a time he was sponsored by "Adidas" (from Lp liner-notes), and he was also doing "Handstands" on the keys for many years!
Serious rock star shit.
One can never understate the importance of Robbie Steinhardt’s harmony vocals on the sound of the band.
RIP Robbie
Like Michael Anthony in Van Halen
Yes, I was going to make this very comment. Those two guys are what creates the sound that we're so used to hearing.👍
Not just the backing vocals, some of their best songs are where Robby and Steve traded lead vocals!
And Chris Squire in YES. Rest In Peace. 🥲@@jimherron5540
Steve Walsh was probably the best live rock vocalist of that era. His range was surprisingly high but had a rich deep sound even up in the stratosphere. He would go from a lyric emotional sound to wild resonant scream tone in the same song. I never thought the studio recordings caught him as well as their double live album. He was just glorious, and absolutely underappreciated.
I agree 100 % his voice on the Two for the Show live album was unparalleled in my opinion. I always compare his voice to a Stratocaster, it just has that little shimmer of gold at the top!
Back in the day, Kansas, REO, Styx, Heart and many others. What a time for music!
One of the most underrated and best bands in the last fifty years, Kansas was so gifted and tight musically. Steve Walsh had a terrific voice; so recognizable with a great range. I saw them live in 1976 for $8 and years later have to say it was one of my best purchases ever
maybe 500 years 😀😀
Underrated????
@@BrandonWestfall Perhaps I used the wrong word; no matter, Kansas will live forever
I agree that Kansas is underrated because they certainly deserved more airtime with some of their other great songs. Kansas is truly awesome!
really cool to see a man do a Triathlon while singing Carry On Wayward Son
Steve Walsh is one of the best rock singers EVER. His range is unbelievable too. They kind of change the chorus note choice a bit from the studio recording but it's still awesome.
This specific live Kansas performance is one of the best in the history of rock. Steve Walsh is phenomenal and one of a kind musician. My God. Kansas is one great band!
I love to see Steve Walsh get some well-deserved recognition. They guy is easily one of the greatest rock singers AND Hammond players ever! And he’s not too shabby on those congas, either, eh?
Steve Walsh imo, is one of the top 5 rock vocalist ever!
I agree completely. I have a couple of others...Robert Plant, Ronnie James Dio, Marko Heitala. Haven't figured out my fifth yet.
@@tomfavorite1020 Steve Perry from Journey comes to mind.
100%
@@tomfavorite1020 you can’t have a top five list without Paul Roger’s/bad company
@@iamclarasentience250 I thought about Paul also. Great choice and hard to argue with. I have been trying to come up with some criteria so my choice is not so subjective.
You fall in love with Steve Walsh every time you hear him sing it's very special gives me chills brings tears to my eyes so brilliant ❤️🤍⚡
I saw him on this tour wearing the exact same thing. He was like this the entire time. I'll never forget him singing Dust In The Wind after running all over like a madman. The guy was in incredible shape.
I think my favorite Steve Walsh performance is on Closet Chronicles or maybe The Wall. Such an amazing voice.
The Wall live - see 2 for the show - is just a spectacular piece of vocal work. But also, let's go back an album, icarus, pinnacle & all the world - Steve in prime form. IMHO no one could sing those songs other than Steve. And there were plenty of singers with range at this time - Steve Perry, Mickey Thomas, Brad Delp, etc - but , again IMHO ( which is pretty close to gospel 🙂), they couldn't touch the stuff Walsh was doing .
I fell in love with they’re music first, thanks to my big brother!
Kansas was my First Concert 77-78, It was one of my most cherished memories, it takes me back when I listen to them , which We Call “The Good ‘Ole Days!” When Musicians had Talent!!
"ALL THE WORLD"(From the álbum "Masque" ) is also a great example of technic of vocals using high and low notes...Steve Walsh is one of the most underrated frontman...
Thanks for this Steve is one of my all time favorites. His live performances were always on point. So accurate. He sang with such passion.
Robbie Steinhardt also had a great singing voice (he only sang lead on occasion), and he harmonized so well with Walsh.
Pitch perfect. You can hear the short small runs and vibrato here and there as evidence of vocal dexterity, so evident. Again pitch perfect. Kansas is such a tight band. Great live band. Top notch vocals.
I was at this concert, Canada Jam 1978, formerly rolling hills of Mosport Park or Track in Bowmanville, Ontario. It's now called Canadian Tire Motorsport Park since 1996, a winding racetrack with lots of parking. They built this huge stage and the gathering was obviously very large, people from all over. I came in from Toronto which is about 1 hr 15 minutes away just by accident picking up a couple young guys excited going there and I decided to go all the way for the experience. Kansas was the headliner band and came on as darkness set in. Perfect mood for people waving their lighters and these classic passionate songs they played. Great live performance!
Shame on me for hearing and loving this song a million times and only just now seeing it performed. What a musical beast he is. And the entire band is so tight. What a group of talent I took for granted. Thank you so much for reacting to this. Of all the reactions to music videos I've seen, I learned the most from this one!
Steve Walsh is one of the best vocalist EVER! Period. Full stop! I’ve seen KANSAS several times & they never disappoint. They are one of my favorite bands. Truly talented musicians. Their song structure is insane!
i 100% agree. there is not and has never been a voice like his in his prime.
Steve Walsh has one of the clearest BRIGHTEST vocal tones in all of popular rock and roll. Plus, the dude can absolutely SKY.
Of course, he gets credit for it, but he is also, often not the first lead singer selected in all of the internet lists.
Not only that, but every person in the classic Kansas band was a MONSTER on their instrument. You observed how Steve could play this solo with his hair in his face.
But Kerry Livgren and Rich Williams were BOTH insane on guitar. Robbie Steinhardt (R.I.P.) was brilliant on violin and vocals. Dave Hope was a BEAST on bass. And Phil Ehart truly IS a drummer whose genius is underrated. (Just listen to all of the tempo changes on "Magnum Opus." CRAZY stuff.)
It was great to see your sheer delight at Steve's vocal performance. You're clearly a fan, enjoying this just as much as any of us other fans. (That is, if we were vocal coaches.)
Thank you SO much for posting this one!
This is the concert finale so Steve had already sung 90 minutes or more at the start of this song. Phenomenal vocal stamina.
Thanks for highlighting the complete amazingness of the mighty Kansas! Faultless music and singing in a live setting. If you want painful accuracy stay in a laboratory, this is how live rock music should sound - and then it’s topped off with Steve and Robbie’s vocals. Y’just can’t lose!
Thanks again from Ireland 🤘🇮🇪👍
Hard working man, that Steve !
Only the "invisible drummer" Phil Ehart in the background works this hard.
Great performance of the whole band !
I LOVE this performance.
I was fortunate enough to have seen Kansas live around this time period - both for the Monolith tour in '79, and the Audio Visions tour a year or two later.
Kansas were unbelievable back then.
A band full of multi taskers switching from keys to guitars, to congas, to the vibraphone, from acoustic to electric guitars, vocals...
Often all in the same song.
Closet Chronicles is a great example.
Kansas Monolith tour was my very first concert, and this is exactly how I remember it. Steve was a madman!
I've never seen anyone turn the keys into a bucking bronco. Definitely gonna look for more of this energy.
An all-time great song, and incredible version. This reviewer is certainly starstruck, as am I. What a gorgeous man and gorgeous voice. It's not the easiest song to sing.
Saw them in concert back in the 1980’s. Fantastic concert..it’s actually on RUclips.. Kansas at the Syria Mosque, Pittsburgh..
I just have to throw this in. It’s so encouraging to see a young person like yourself enjoying the 70’s bands like you are. I think sometimes it will be lost. The 1970’s was a magical time for rock. It really came into its own then..
The 70’s and 80's were a magical time for cocaine. It really came into its own then.
@@Mr.Ekshin😂
@@Mr.EkshinDon’t forget the opposite, but equally important (to some of us), Quaaludes. I loved them both, and often!
@@egalitarian-rex - 714 to the rescue!
Some of THE best music was created in the 70’s! Music that will never be made again. Even the bands that created masterpieces will never create that same level of music. As others have eluded to, it may have been the drugs.😂
If I'm not mistaken, Steve Walsh was a soccer player and he used to be late for concerts because he was playing in a FOOTBALL match. The whole band is explosive and magical and I don't want to analyze it. I just want to sing, dance, move with and rock with them, but mostly appreciate them and THANK GOD he brought them to all of us. If I need help being inspired, I put their music on. We earlier Gen Xs did have the best music to grow up with.
Regarding harmonies, remember this is well before in-ears and only had foldback monitors. It was REALLY hard to hear yourself on stage back then. Great video. Thx!
She's mesmerised by Steve. I've watched this several times. She's well done and over.
His voice is just great.
I saw Kansas once… when they opened for Yes during the “Masterworks” tour. To say that it was an amazing night of music is a real understatement! Brilliance on display from Kansas’s first note to Yes’s last.
I saw that same show at DTE in Michigan. Killer show! I couldn’t believe that my two favorite bands were touring together! Steve has one of the BEST voices ever!
I saw them in Hartford on that tour. Interviewed Steve pre-show and then hung out with the whole band afterwards. Rich was telling some of the funniest road stories from back in the 70s. He’s a very jovial and funny dude! 😆
@@crusheverything4449 WOW!!!! That must have been a real treat! Yeah, I’ve seen Rich in a few videos & he seems to have quite the sense of humor! He’s an awesome guitarist! Definitely in my top ten of favs. What was Steve like?
You picked the absolute best live version available! I saw this tour and it was AMAZING for a 15 yr old kid to see, been a fan every since. Great reaction, love your channel.
Excellent band that I saw at MSG in 1977 while in High School. At that time a ticket was about $9.50, not orchestra, but got you into the concert. Glad you are discovering bands like this and particularly their masterpiece album Leftoverture.
one of my all-time fav rock vocalists! Steve's voice is amazing!
Hi! So cool to see you doing Kansas. I'm the nephew of Kerry Livgren, the blonde guitarist, but I'm primarily a lead singer who used Steve Walsh as my primary vocal inspiration, among many other greats. Really appreciate your vocal and musical analysis. Would love to hear you analyze some of my stuff!
Listening to Steve from day One and to this day, his all around vocal facility remains as startling as it was then. Although Steve Perry with his Ultra Polished head voice perfection could easily match his range and clarity, Steve Walsh just had more tools in his box adding the perfectly applied fine distortions and fat, warm, tonal dynamics that are the necessary requirements of any ginuine ROCK Performance. For rock vocalists, the ability to develop and maintain ones facility over decades can be overwhelming and has proven for most to be simply impossible. At a young age and for the many decades that followed, Steve Walsh had set incomparable standards while millions listened in stunned silence wondering, How it could be possible that ANYONE could demonstrate such an amazing Vocal Prowess as he. What an EXTREMELY RARE Delight it has been for all of us.
I love your enthusiasm and getting all giddy over Steve Walsh and his performance and his vocals. I used to get that way from his vocals kind of.... he's just that good
Go see Kansas now that's a recommendation.
Someone has a tiny little crush on young Steve Walsh I feel ;D great video
Thank you for paying homage to Steve. However, may I chime in here? I realize Steve's vocals on this and Dust in the wind are what everyone hears and loves, but as someone who has studied his singing, you folks really owe it to yourselves to hear his voice on the first and second CD recorded before they achieved fame. His voice and skill, tone, range, and chest mix is off the charts in every sense of the word. The first CD is called Kansas, the second Song For America.
You forgot Song for America
@@gouldflaWill correct Thx
I have always loved this song. Epic in scope, masterfully played, and of course the amazing vocals. If you like his voice, check out their song All I Wanted.
Steve before he became, er, "stimulant-free." 😂 He is an exemplar of what I most often prefer in a vocalist and why. Someone can have all the technique, dexterity, and latitude in the world, but if I don't like the sound of their voice, none of that matters. And there's just something about his timbre that has always gotten right to my soul. It's something you either have or you don't. (That said, part of his appeal is how he actually used his considerable abilities, as well.) As I mentioned elsewhere, it's a shame that he did so much to harm that golden tenor.
I think this is my third time through this video and I caught something new in your observations with each viewing. Really great analysis.
For sure.
I'm often amazed at fellow Kansas fans that don't get the difference between Steve, John Elefante, and Ronnie Platt.
I try to explain the difference between hitting the notes, and TONE, depth, warmth, soul etc...
@@Incomudro1963 Absolutely. Steve's tone was magic. He never got thin and whiney in the upper register of his voice. It was always strong and pleasing in his heyday. Ronnie hits the notes, but there is no real identity in his tone. John has gotten better with age. His vocals were a bit like cotton in the early years of his Kansas tenure, which can be attributed to the production at times. Vinyl Confessions had a rather dull sound in terms of its sonics. Wonderful arrangements and songs, however.
You guys are spot-on about Steve, John and Ronnie Platt. Steve in his prime was untouchable, IMO. Steve Perry gets all the love, but Walsh is better, if you ask me. John really has gotten better with age. As for Ronnie Platt, I can’t listen to him or even look at the guy. He has the strangest body language I’ve ever seen in a performer and there’s no soul or balls in his vocals. What Phil and Rich saw or heard in him is beyond me. They could’ve had Ted Leonard or Jerome Mazza?!! Total head scratcher.
@@crusheverything4449 great, great comment. Walsh was truly in a league of his own, and as you rightly say, untouchable back then; Perry, Lou Gramm, Brad Delp (who Steve gets lumped in with) although good in their own way, do nothing for me, and neither do the bands they sang for, yet Walsh sears me to the bone and I marvel at his tone, control, pitch, range and his ability to put some elusive magic into the delivery of Kerry's beautiful lyrics.
@@carlscarlet- I’m a big fan of Gramm and Delp, as well as Foreigner and Boston ( the debut and Don’t Look Back, anyway), but I do feel that Steve was breathing rarified air in the 70s. There is real emotional impact in the combination of his tone, range and inflections. Walsh was just a natural-born singer like no one else I’ve ever heard. On top of that - and I always mention this - he’s one of the wickedest Hammond players in rock.
He had to be in such good shape to have the breath to sing and do all the moving he did on stage. No wonder he was sweating!
All the coke helped a lot as well.
I've seen Kansas in concert at least 10 times (isn't it terrible I can't remember how many?). Thanks for posting this video! Kansas Two For The Show is one of the best live albums ever recorded. Lots of songs to choose from. More please!
Agree with that. Two for the Show really turned me on to how great they were live.
i remember seeing you at all the shows.
Saw them several times in the late 70’s; Jimmie Spheeris opened one of them, fell in love with his music also. Sad he died so young in a CA motorcycle accident. Kansas is a great band!
Awesome! Never seen this performance of this perfect song before! Thanks Beth!
He's always just pushed himself hard live. Here in St Louis they were played early and we exclusively broke the song from Steve Walsh solo "Every step of the way" which is one of the best tracks he ever put vocals to. It inspired me to start singing professionally... and look it up. Its an earwig!
STEVE is in the top 5 in rock,many are good ,he's a genius on the mic,and then there's his musicianship on other instruments,total package,JUST RIGHT FOR KANSAS
Thank you for your kind reaction to the band Kansas. As an older native Kansan. I have been a fan of this band since the 1970's when I was in High School. Please consider reacting to Kansas performing the song Dust in the Wind. It is a remarkable song.
This song…when I was a little girl, like elementary school age, I heard this song and fell in love instantly. I remember recording it on my tape recorder (it was the 70’s) and listening to a line, pausing it, then writing the lyric down! I still love it and then today. Great video!!
I’m totally in love with Steve Walsh, whew! 😅 saw them several times in the late 70’s, but forgot about his “shirtless” outfits, no wonder I crushed on him as a young teen. What a great band they are! Jimmie Spheeris opened for them once, I was blown away by him too, sadly he was killed in a motorcycle accident in CA in his early 30’s. His album “Isle of View” is fantastic!
Steve Walsh will never get his due he was just an amazing live performer. Great keyboard player. Songwriter He he really gave it his all every night.
HE IS A GENIUS VOCALIST,in the top 5 in the world,when he's with kansas,he tries harder,its easy when you dance with the ones who brought you,STEVE IS THE VOICE OF THIS BAND,PERIOD
True regarding Steve’s vocals. But he wasn’t half the songwriter, composer, orchestrator, lyricist, or multi-instrumentalist that Kerry Livgren was (and is). No wonder he’s known as “the maestro.”
@@katesjanice true,but people have to learn that all of that beautiful melody and composing,has to have heavenly,stellar vocals,VOCALS IS THE ULTIMATE INSTRUMENT,its just a fact,or you are a instrumental band,they don't go very far
Great Analysis:) I think Steve got his power from his shorts!
Definitely the shorts 🎶
Thanks a lot for sharing, Kansas is a one of the best rock progressive band
LMAOLMAO
those shorts are real sink or swim. you either rise to the occasion of wearing them or you crumble
😂😂😂
Yikes! I'm not much of a social media person at 73....but do so remember working with Kansas while Budd Carr was managing them, both at BNB and as a solo manager. Those guys were the sweetest most humble musicians with integrity when I met them in 1975.....what an integrated group until ....well you all know the story. I was there for there working through 1979....good memories mostly.
HOLY TOPEKA!! Wasn't sure what the physical Ed "dress down" was about until Parallel Key's routine 😂 A Absolute Beast of a singer. Part of the intro was missing. For a mind blowing in-depth story behind the making of the entire album I recommend visiting The Professor Of Rock channel. Being a Bass player (& guitar) my favorite song is A SONG FOR AMERICA. It's a masterpiece and you can hear the gorgeous tone of the Rickenbacker Bass as well as all the other instruments. Even tripping on words you are The Best Splainner on the Tube!! Great Channel!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Your excitement for great talent is infectious! I was smiling with you! ❤
Steve Walsh... the voice....
This girl is just so freakin' ridiculously cute.
I recently found this video also. Freaking awesome video and song done right! Totally changed my perspective for Kansas. Thanks for reviewing this!
Jeez!...I'm sweaty and exhumed just WATCHING these guy play this song. Another fantastic reaction video!
Saw them on this particular tour when they played at my school. Who'd think they'd have come to the Naval Academy? Always liked them prior to that show, but they really were incredible live, and that concert got me a lot more into their music. One of my top five shows ever.
Another great 70s rock vocalist to add to the list 😀
Ian Gillan and Paul Rogers should be near the top of the list for review Bethany, the 70s would not be complete without them 😃😃
id add pre 72/73 Robert Plant as well. It kills me to see people watch the 73 or 75 live concerts and judge his voice on those years when it was at its most damaged. most of his actual peak voice is really captured on bootlegs only. he sounds better today at 80 than in the footage most people think of haha
Kerry Livgren is such a criminally underappreciated songwriter. He wrote this, Dust in the Wind, and many of Kansas's other great songs.
I saw them in about 91 on an “all original members tour” and it was so great. Steve Walsh sweated all over me, so that was gross, but still a cool memory! 😂
Walsh was the perfect lead singer - and a hell of an entertainer and keyboardist.
The studio version has him sustaining "don't you cry no more" for about 8-9 seconds. Amazing vocal ability.
Saw them live . Incredible musicianship stamin and energy. A then unknown Cheap Trick opened for them, and it was quite the night!
Steve's outfit is at great contrast to the guy wearing a tuxedo! 😂. The 70's were wild, man!
Wow, what a performance! At the beginning, I'm like wow, basketball shorts and long tube sox, this is total '70s! After I saw him jumping, kicking and dancing at the keyboards I understood, it was a real workout so dress the part, right? Such a great band, and such a great song, what a talented singer. Also one of the two best bands named after geographical locations (along with Boston, Asia is way, way down the list....). Hold On is one of my all time faves.
This is the most 1970s thing I've ever seen, outside of Disco and Blaxploitation.
For sure. I saw two different Kansas tours around this time frame, and Steve was essentially an athlete on stage.
Shorts like this, and tube socks were worn by everyone doing anything athletic - or just on a hot day in the mid 70's, so there was nothing weird about it.
Matter of fact it made complete sense.
The documentary about Kansas: “Miracles Out of Nowhere” is a must watch Bethany.
A staple of Progressive Rock bands - many members absolutely gushing with talent.
The song is a legendary tour de force
Find the song Can't Cry Anymore by Kansas. Perhaps the most emotive male rock vocal I've ever heard from anyone. Steve Walsh's finest moment behind a microphone.
Got to see Kanas live in 2017 and it was like listening to them on the radio. They gave an awesome performance, granted they weren't doing the wild piano playing still a great time.
This song always takes me back to when my friend and I went to a high school football game in his VW bug. He played Leftoverture on his 8 track player. The first song on album is Carry On. This album was just released. Later I bought the vinyl and I still have that album. I rarely play it as I copied it to cassettes and burned out tapes then repeat. I love this album.
Kansas! One of the great musical bands from the 70's. From symphonic rock to very catchy singles.
Quite a song from a group of Incredible musicians. And I like the way you've noticed his exposure to the performance and how it might affect his execution, but unless you've experienced it, you'll never understand how PLAYING LIVE in front of 25-30,000 screaming fans really JUMP STARTS your PERFORMANCE!
Steve Walsh also does handstands on his keyboard.
Love this reaction! Steve Walsh was my musical hero when I started playing and singing in middle school. If you want to see another dynamic rock performer with that level of charisma and stamina, highly recommend Jonny Hawkins and Nothing More. I kept thinking of Steve when randomly saw them open for On This Moment. Non stop energy and incredible singer!
Gotta love the Robby tambourine throw!!
I saw them live in 1980 and was right up front and loved the band!
It's always fun enjoying one of my favorite songs with you. I know all the reasons why I love it so much, but you always find a way to give me more reasons. This particular song, composed by the genius of Kerry Livgren (blonde guitarist/keyboardist) came at the absolute pinnacle of his creativity, but Steve steals the stage, I've watched several performances from this era, and his energy level is ridiculous. I'm sure he collapsed into a bed at the end of the show. This particular reaction demonstrates how you can add great value on a reflective viewing, it doesn't have to be first time for "shock" value. Thank you, Bethany, for always bringing enthusiasm and passion. May I suggest "Icarus: Borne on Wings of Steel" and "Icarus II" (maybe in the same review) because they are pure genius, even though they were composed twenty-five years apart. There is a video of them performing them back to back with Steve in Atlanta 2002. You are easily one of my top three music reactors, usually sitting at the top after watching a new one. Long live my favorite line ... "We're going back!"
Steve was also very into working out in the gym and some weight lifting. He also found time during the concerts to do head/hand stands ON his piano. This is a bit later in their career and they are using some artistic license with the original song whereas early on they pretty much kept to duplicating the studio version.
Saw them live in 1979 at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, In. Such an amazing energetic performance....
Such an amazing band... I got to see them in Lewiston ID in like 2008 for a show put on by the local rock radio station and there were maybe 30 people in the audience. This wasn't a reflection on the band as much as the lack of promotion and the fairly small population in the area, but they still put on a great show, and Steve still had a spectacular voice.
I fell in love with KANSAS as a child listening to an 8-track tape of "Leftoverture" that came with a used car that my father had purchased. I had never heard such opulent, mysterious and magical music before. It was LOVE at first listen! I have NOT had the opportunity to attend many Rock concerts in my life so I feel particularly blessed that this happened to me:
I was at the Independence Day celebration on the 4th of July some years back, when I spotted a large Winnebago RV parked amongst the trees next to the fairground. It just looked out of place amongst the trailers for carnival rides and food trucks. I sat down beneath a tree and watched it.
Soon the door opened and the largest man that I had ever seen stepped down onto the ground. He wore a black eye patch. I recognized him immediately as, Richard Williams, guitarist for the American Rock Band KANSAS!
I got a hold of a program for the day's events, and it confirmed that KANSAS was playing HERE TONIGHT! I made my way to the stage and patiently waited for the sun to set and the show to begin.
When Steve Walsh appeared onstage and began to play his keyboard and to sing, I could not believe that KANSAS was really right here in my mother's own neighborhood.
Steve was in excellent physical shape, sang like a bird and even did handstands on his keyboard several times throughout the show!
GOD Bless KANSAS! 😊

This is about the most 70’s thing I’ve seen in a long time.
That was just off the carts amazing ❤ I grew up with all these amazing rock bands. Wow 😳 what a performance ❤ so so good ❤
Thankful this was my hometown band as a young man. They played just as well as they recorded in studio. I prefer live recordings of any band to this day because of this band.
I like your style of analyzing music. Especially how you just let the song play
The 70s gym shorts and tube socks (with colored stripes) are straight BOSS!
Man’s stage presence is crazy
Saw them 7 times. 5 times before Steve Walsh left. Best band of my youth!
One of my favorite play along tunes and love the studio version the best😎
Such a great riff, song and singing/ harmony! A classic and iconic song!
Less of a vocal coach reacting and more of a woman swept away by Steve's incredible energy and showmanship.
Bingo!!
I love this song...Studio version is way better than this live version but thats understandable...You NEED to react to Dino Jelusick. He is an amazing vocalist - so good that he's been asked to tour with Whitesnake as their vocalist. He put together some talented musicians during the pandemic days and recorded some covers. This one in particular is amazing - JELUSICK / PORTNOY / HOEKSTRA "Jane", but there is also a Boston cover that also great. You will be impressed by this guys amazing vocals. Hope to see this reaction soon. Thanks for the video!
Yea, I wish she would of done studio version; would of blown her socks off.
Awesome song,I love your reaction videos 🙂
gracious that man was eye and ear candy
