    Kansas was a great band from the 70's. Their musical style is a fusion of hard rock, southern rock & progressive rock. "Carry On Wayward Son" & "Dust In The Wind" are their 2 biggest hits. But they had other good songs such as "Point Of Know Return", "Hold On", "People Of The South Wind", "Play The Game Tonight", "Fight Fire With Fire", "All I Wanted" etc.

    Following up a big hit like 'Leftoverture' and "Carry on Wayward Son" was daunting, especially for a band like Kansas that has never really trafficked in hit singles. That the cleverly named follow-up was arguably more consistent is a testament to the band, especially given its rigorous touring schedule in support of 'Leftoverture.'
    Kansas generally moved back toward shorter pieces here but maintained prog ambitions throughout, stretching things out for "Closet Chronicles" and "Hopelessly Human."
    ‘Point of Know Return’ solidified their popularity, selling 4 million copies in the U.S. alone. It generated hits with the title track and the iconic ballad “Dust in the Wind,” as well as popular favorites “Sparks of the Tempest” and "Portrait (He Knew)" - Excerpts from Ultimate Classic Rock 2023

    This album came out in 1976. The previous album in 1975 contains an anthem that you should hear. Great themes, lyrics that make you think and first-rate musicianship. It's called "Song for America".

    My favorite Kansas song. Even way back when I was a kid already, songs like these just spoke to me. Takes me back to a simpler time. Like late eighties/early nineties, my first years of what we call highschool in our country, the first year of music education. We weren't taught to play an instrument in the first two years, but the teacher listened to music with us and broke it down to make us understand the different kinds of music, and the lyrics as well as the meaning behind them. This was one of those songs, and after class I was one of the few to ask him if I could bring an empty cassette tape and if he could put that song on there for me >^_^

    I saw Kansas a few years ago and they are in Toronto tomorrow night and I may go. We'll have to see. They are awesome in concert having two of the original seven members still with the band; however, you wouldn't notice as they are spectacular. If you get a chance to see them live, take it!!

    This song reminds me of what the pastor tells us on Ash Wednesday. From Dust you came. And to Dust you shall return. Thank you for your wonderful reaction. Please consider reacting to the Kansas song Play the game tonight.

    I saw them in a small Apache casino close to Alamogordo, New Mexico, in 2016, and they were still f**king awesome !! For a French guy, that was an amazing moment I can't forget, so blessed to have seen Legends as them live !

    This is a wonderfully deep song that helps me enjoy life with some humility, and to remember what's important in life. It's an eternal message, beautifully done.

    Almost at 300k subs, Aileen, woohoo! And yet...this too shall pass. A stoic song if there ever was one, existential message. Wisdom put to beautiful music.

    Hi Aileen 😊 An awesome reaction to Kansas's Dust in the Wind😊👍 I remember this playing on the radio for a long long time 😊 Yes indeed 😊 You have captured the message loud and clear😊 It's most important what Mark you leave behind when you're gone... You stated this very beautifully 😊👍 I wish you all the best as you talk about mental health to those who need to hear 😊 and I hope for all the energy for you as you do so 😊 All the recommendations for Kansas songs are wonderful and I look forward to the reactions from you 😊 Have a great day you and Arya 😊👍

    A little known and little played Kansas tune is The Wall on the Leftoverture album. You won’t be disappointed

    This song was used with devastating effect in the first season finale of the Highlander TV show… has stuck with me for years even though I was a big fan of Kansas all the way back to the early 80s

    Years back, while still learning the many intricacies of guitar playing, I decided to delve into learning how to play this beautiful piece and remember really struggling with the artful fingerpicking. Those were the good ol' days... days long gone now with my fine motor control greatly diminished due to living with the most aggressive form of MS. This disease hasn't stopped me from appreciating great music like this though. I gotta say, another tune that I also struggled with - fingerpicking-wise - was Just Breathe by Pearl Jam. Thank you for doing this one, Aileen. I didn't know how much I needed it.

    When I first listened to this song in the late 70's as a very young lad the lyrics and the tone hit home. This is a song that stays with you forever.
