I've always had a sensitive spot for Father Son relationships. As Vin explained his thoughts the lyrics I found myself tearing up and thinking about all the things I've learned from my father and the role it had in shaping me into the man I am today. I'm no father but can still appreciate the hardships that Fathers encounter in raising their children. I'm also very aware of the mother's role as a parent and I'm not trying to undermine it. ^_^ anyways total classic. keep up the great work and wish nothing but the best for you and this channel. Yes! to "Dust in the Wind."
Then there's "Cat's in the Cradle" for another angle on the father-son relationship... I'd love to hear Vin's thoughts on it as a father, even if the song is bittersweet
@@vinapocalypse sad song but so true it seems ,, we become our parents ,,
This song is about a spiritual awakening, the writer was going through a conversion to christianity when he was writing this record. Its not a coversation between a father and son, its a conversation with God
First song that came to my mind watching this was, "Father and Son" by Cat Stevens... I get teary eyed every time I hear it.
Angel Villa Tovar you two make me sick.. You call yourself Christians???
😂😂😂 Nothing you do on your channel glorifies Christ. NOTHING!!
“How did these people find each other? They didn’t have social media.” LOL
They left the freaking house.
That was funny.
lol There ya go!
Lots of musicians were schoolmates. Similar interests in music created bands back then.
Sagely. Sagely? Appropriately.
And they worked their asses off to get good. It's amazing ... if you work at something, you get better.
This song has been the anthem of 15 seasons of the tv series Supernatural, adored by millions of fans. Younger generations are discovering and loving this song every day because of the series. Kansas appeared at San Diego Comic-con to play Carry on Wayward Son live for thousands of Supernatural fans. It was an epic moment!
The reason so many older bands appear to have “more” talent is that there wasn’t technology to cover their warts. They had to sing it well, which requires practice and cutting your teeth for years. Bands don’t often come up the same way and digital recording/sampling does a lot of work for the artist that they just don’t have to perfect their craft as much.
And don’t take this as an “old snob” attitude. There are real talents out there now that come up the same way, but it’s becoming rarer and rarer. Back in the day you cut your teeth and with so few mediums to get music to you, that limit allowed a lot of cream to rise to the top. Now anybody with a computer can make an album, no matter if it’s good or not. This obviously liberates artists who are no longer controlled by labels, but it also saturates the music industry with loads of garbage.
Exactly. Also, IMAGE was less of a factor because there was no MTV and music videos weren't essential to success. That's what killed a talented artist like Christopher Cross. He had early success and not many people cared he was a boring, chubby looking white dude. Once image became more important, artists like him didn't translate.
Dylan Neuens Back then bands recorded live as a group and did one take. A lot. Now, no band does that. Or could.
FanaticalDrummer not really at this point. In the 40’s-60’s that was much more true. By the 70’s multiple takes and separate tracking was easily accomplished.
Right on brother
most accurate comment I have seen anywhere on this topic!
They ABSOLUTELY sounded like this live! Classic & iconic 💕
Once upon a time, society actually managed to live life without social media, cell phones and RUclips..lol much better times and music back then for sure!
I love Kansas.They were big in the late 70's and 80's. It is so nice that people are finding these bands that I listened to back in the day. It is taking me back........... I would not mind listening to Dust in the Wind. :-)
I heard them first on southpark. Now they pop up everywhere. Love this song. Shame that I just missed the 80's.
@@thetruth5232 Yes it was a great time for music. The 70's weren't so bad either.............
I love "Carry On" but I never liked "Dust in the Wind."
@@porflepopnecker4376 I like that one too..........
You might like the entire first side of “Point Of No Return”. One of my favorite album sides ever.
Boston - "More then a feeling"
THAN.
Then/Than.... forget that song. Too overexposed. Do Foreplay/Longtime and imagine Tom Scholz basically writing and performing EVERYTHING you hear except for Brad Delps amazing vocals.
Just do any Boston. One of the best debut albums of all time. And talk about a band that sounds amazing live!
@@ChrisPage68 lol 10/4
Its a typo ppl get over it , dont have to use the first oppurtunity u get to sound smart lile this.
A time in music where multiple sections of a song were crafted and switched around THEN they practiced the hell out of it. They crafted pieces, then organized the song. So we are talking a ton of practice to get the songs to come on this way in studio AND live.
That's how we did it, correct!
Where my SPN fans at?
Yep every season finale starts with this song!!
Here!
*raises hand*
The Road So Far...
Yeah! :D
Definitely do Dust in the Wind. The strings are awesome.
This song is used as a major theme song on "supernatural " tv show on the cw. You might like that show. It's about family and religion and heaven and hell . Father and son relationships. Plus kick ass music.
I love it when you do classic songs. Great stories as always too.
Most definitely
For a show that deals with God and Satan alot..they avoid religion pretty well. Is that show all folklore exists, and it never really commented on..its just how it is.
Vin, back then the pool was smaller and the best of the best knew each other through a network akin to 7 degrees of separation. The musicianship had to be spot on back then. There was no way to hide bad playing like there is now. Watch the two part doc on The Eagles. It really shows how talent finds talent.
Vin, the songwriter for this song, Kerry Livgren, became a Christian around 1979 (this song came out in 1976). Then bassist Dave Hope became a Christian, and when he (Hope) left the band he never came back to rock n' roll. I think he's a pastor now.
A sad loss to music...
Kerry has a lot of Solo albums plus two other bands. AD which is a Christian band similar to Kansas but with a sax instead of violin.
His last band is Porto-Kaw for 2004 -2008. They are a progressive rock/ Jazz fusion band. They have 4 albums. The band is made up of ex-Kansas members from 1971-1973 lineups. Amazing music.
Kerry had a massive life threatening stroke in 2009. He has since recovered and has appeared on stage with the current Kansas once but he’s retired.
He’s appeared off and on with Kansas since the mid-90s whenever they appear where he is.
While not specifically Christian (plural "voices", for example) it's pretty obvious he's talking about God. I am surprised these folks missed that. Their conversation was interesting and edifying, but wow... How did you miss this being about his relationship with the Eternal / God?
Kerry Livgren has made a few Christian albums. One featuring Ronnie James Dio singing a song called To Live for the King.
instant like...cult classic song, the memories of Sam and Dean getting into s*itty situations
Ah, The Road So Far...
Find a movie Called Heroes, Henry Winkler, Sally Fields and Harrison Ford.
I personally think of South Park, when Stan’s dad gets out his guitar and plays this song just for the kids to tell him to shut up. It was the Guitar Hero episode.
This is the season finale in Supernatural not them getting into shitty situations. That being said...this is a kick ass Kansas song!!! One of my favorites the other being Dust In The Wind!!!
Lol.
This musical era shaped me. And I’m still in good shape ! Good job! you guys are cute!
The answer for how they 've played so well those days without all that technological stuff is exactly that...They were forced by this lack of technology to be great musicians . Now they're good technicians not musicians.
The Road So Far... Haha first heard this while watching Supernatural. Stuck with me since 😁👌🏻 Helloween ☆ Keeper of the seven keys 🎃
Omg the song is great but they wont know what it is without watching the series
It is an absolute JAM! You young'uns missed all the good music first time around! 😋
9:00 In the liner notes for the 30th Anniversary edition of the Kansas live album, Kansas - Two For The Show, drummer Phil Ehart says that there was no studio magic or overdubs on the live album, what you hear is straight from the recording truck tapes. And the album performance and sound is fantastic :)
Two for the show has some of the best versions of their classic tracks, imo.
Livgren stated in interviews that there were *some* overdubs on Two for the Show - but only where a technical problem caused something to drop out.
Just saw this for the first time. Even though this was 3 years ago, I completely relate to your story about telling your then 13 yr old son you love him after a conflict. I heard that same voice you heard. It told me to tell my dad I loved him. Those were my and my dad's last words to each other one evening, after a conflict we had earlier that day. He died unexpectedly the next day. He was 34, I was 13. That night has stayed with me my entire life. I am now 62. Keep telling your son you love him and following God's lead. God bless you.
Great selection .. Of course the next logical step is Kansas" Dust in the Wind." If you're doing classic rock now I would suggest boston-more-than-a-feeling and Bruce Springsteen Badlands
yeah, Sori would love Boston if she loves these vocals.
Also, maybe Peace of Mind would be a good song for them to analyze
No, not 3-chord Springsteen!
I would love to see you guys listen to “Dust in the Wind”!
John McCullough great song 👍
Yes Sori needs to hear it!
My favorite song.

fRYKY - love this song
More cowbell
KANSAS IS WAY MORE COMPLEX THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW ....MORE PLEASE ..Try Song for America or ICARUS Borne on the wings of steel
Hell yeah Song for America is amazing! Thought I was the only one who loves that song.
You said it brother!
Off of Masque "Mysteries and Mayhem followed by "the Pinnacle" is most impressive musically but also the lyrics are fantastic!!
I must say "Song for America" is a tour de force and "Icarus" is also outstanding!!
Incommudro (Hymn to the Atman) has some really deep lyrics, but I think the drum solo would lose them.
Carry On My Wayward Son reached 11 while Dust in the Wind reached 6. Dust in the Wind came off their 1978 album, Point of Know Return, another good song. From that same era Head East did a song, Never Been Any Reason. Love this song sung by John Schlitt, who became a Christian and formed Petra in 1986 after suffering from addiction and getting kicked out of Head East in 1980.
Petra was around long before John joined.
The biggest difference between then and now is the attention span of people. Back then people would really dedicate themselves to a "craft" and become exceptional through very hard work. As technology has evolved the attention span of people has greatly changed. There are still people who become exceptional at a certain thing, but there are so many distractions that it's likely there are many fewer. There will always be those who are just born with virtuoso-type talent, but those who are on the border-line are less likely to put in the work to achieve this level of talent.
so true...
Maybe for some , then for some was drug use . Lsd , pot , and the like . it was all tripping music that let you interpret your understanding through you imagination . 60's / 70's was the years of revolution . anti war , peace , "do your own thing " , I know I lived it !
Wow. This band needs to be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Saw them in concert in the 70s. Fantastic live.
There's another song in the same album called *Miracles Out Of Nowhere* which is musicly unbelievable!
Miracles out of knowhere is my fav Kansas song.
Paradox is another.
My older brother had gone to Vietnam and came home unharmed at least physically. I remember him telling my father that America had sent him over there and when he came home America was ashamed of him. This song wasn't written about Vietnam veterans but if you listen to the words it does kind of fit them. My brother had this LP and he'd listen to this song over and over again. It was kind of theurapetic at a time when there wasn't anything for the vets to help them. Thanks for playing this.
For the younger listeners, the lead singer's voice was NOT auto-tuned. What a set of pipes Steve Walsh had! Rock on!
💯
The natural extension of Kansas is Boston. Do Foreplay/Longtime. Just believe me on this one.
Nevets Zinodas greatest album ever made in a basement by a genius that had to invent the technology that would bring the songs home. Plus Tom S didn’t even learn guitar until he was 20. Sheesh
@@Mr05Chuck oh that is so true. Didn't Brad Tom and sib graduate Dean honours list from MIT
You can imagine how much this meant, the entire album to a 15 year old Christian, saw them on the "Point of Know Return" tour, they were spot on. Many great Kansas songs!
Gotta love that Hammond Organ. In 1977 I was 17 when this came out and if I was out riding around in my 1968 Firebird with the windows rolled down, and this came on the radio, I would blast it. The 70s produced the best musicians because we didn't have Xbox. If you were 22 and in your parents' basement, you were probably a musician, constantly practicing and getting better. Then, instead of plugging into steam games on a Friday night, you were out playing gigs and getting noticed by talent scouts.
"Carry-on my wayward son" was the song break out song that them. A very iconic song for them. "Leftoverture" is a great album, great songs throughout.
Left Overture is one of few albums I think is honest to God, perfect.
Wow! This is a classic song. I have a feeling Vin is going to really like the guitar work in this! Excellent pick!!
Deep Purple "Perfect Strangers"
Dave Scampilano live in Sidney, one of the best livealbums ever made.
So both Dust In The Wind and Wayward Son were game changers for Kansas. The songwriter for Kansas wrote the latter the *night before* they finished that album, and that album basically made their careers. Then he (yup, same guy wrote both songs) said he was in his practice area in his kitchen doing a guitar drill he'd made up to practice finger picking. His wife walks by and says, "You need to do something with that." He tells her, "Ah, its just a practice drill, stop bothering me." Then he wife stops, and says, " *No,* I'm serious, you need to *do* something with what you have there." So, taking his wife's advise he started putting words to it and it became Dust In The Wind. He actually didn't think his bandmates would like it because it was so different from their usual stuff. He recorded it on a tape and played it for them, just his voice and guitar. When it stopped, everyone was speechless and their drummer said, "Where has *_this_* been?" He had doubts but the others in the group believed that the song was something really special.
Am i the only one that watches Supernatural?

Definitely time to do it! 👍

This epic performance is a must! ruclips.net/video/8Pa9x9fZBtY/видео.html
Alchemy live
YAAAAAAS
I highly suggest you check out Icarus by Kansas. Also, in 1980, Kerry Livgren, who composes the majority of Kansas’s music made a solo Christian album. And on that album there are two songs that Ronnie James Dio sings on. One of them being Mask of the Great Deceiver which I highly recommend you check out.👍
This song never ages. You could listen to it a thousand times and never get tired of it.
dust in the wind is my favorite. Its fun to play on guitar and like you guys said this musicianship is nuts. its not about how many notes you can play its about the patterns being clever and fun.

Triumph does need some attention.
It is funny what clicks for someone. My husband loves Rush (I enjoy them), but I love Triumph (he enjoys them). Since he doesn't know how to maintain a playlist (I do them for both our phones) he is always surprised by the number of Triumph vs. Rush.
He is slow, but I love him!
I guess you two have never watch Supernatural? This song (and the band) enjoyed a renaissance because it is the season finally theme song for Supernatural. It is also a great song
Cool
Supernatural fan since season 1
Supernatural fan since somewhere between episode 1 and 3. Longtime fan of Carry On Wayward Son
That recap - the road so far - hits an emotional spot every time....
What a wonderful song ! Those vocal melodies are bigger than life. You just lean back and enjoy every time you hear this !
I grew up with Kansas! Graduated Highschool in 1977 (yea. I'm almost 60) Leftoverture put them on the map (so to speak) with Carry On My Wayward Son being the catalyst. Their follow up album Point Of Know Return gave them their biggest commercial hit Dust In The Wind. Their lyrics have always been pretty thought provoking and clever (Point of Know Return). From the above mentioned albums I recommend The Wall, Nobody's Home, Closet Chronicles and of course Dust In The Wind is a must
Kansas- miracles out of nowhere
I have a hard time explaining to my kids ‘I’m 50 ‘ that this was a chart topping pop song in the 70’s and more or less prog rock , interestingly this era of music mid 70’s had some of the most ambitious music on the rock era , Queen -Rush-Led Zeppelin- Styx-Etc all had big multi dimensional songs that were big hits , something about that era
Yes!
Re: Kansas - "Carry On Wayward Son" was their breakout song. "Dust In The Wind" was their biggest hit.
Great song! Kansas is one of my favorite bands... great musical talent, great song writing, and several songs have a good spiritual message.
For another great classic rock song you should do Manfred Mann's "Blinded by the Light"
I always thought "The Runner" by them in the 80's was an underappreciated song.
Better version than the Springsteen original.
@@ChrisPage68 I agree with you. Manfred Mann's version was far superior, but Springsteen's was pretty good as well. And I'm a Bruce Springsteen fan. I bought is LP the river in 1983 I think it was. Great album
Another song that I could never get enough of and was thrilled when it was on the radio. Up there with Bohemian Rhapsody, Carry On Wayward Son, eruption by Van Halen, Jamie's Cryin, Cheap Trick, scorpions. Obviously I'm a headbanger
Kansas is my all time favorite band. Their lyrics are so amazing, touches you so deep...its like all of their songs tell your story.
This song, even how great it is, for me, is not their best song, not even close, neither is Dust In the Wind.
Kansas haves so many, so mind blowing songs, they are so good, the most underrated band in the world.
They were the best live band ever, if you don't believe, believe one Freddy Mercury.
In the 70's Kansas had the chance to tour with the Queen (and with the Aerosmith), now obviously
Kansas went first. After one show, Freddy Mercury said to Brian May, this is the greatest live band i ever heard or seen,
how they perform,...they are so tight, their sound is so amazing. - Steven Tyler of the Aerosmith did not agree,
he was so jealous of the multiple encore request's and got super pissed, but that's a story for another time :) .

They grew up together in Lawrence, Kansas.
Vin & Sori: I had the pleasure of seeing these guys put on a free concert back in the 80s at Six Flags Over Georgia (in Mableton just outside Atlanta). They sounded EXACTLY the same live as on the album, and that is VERY rare indeed.
Check out some Boston. Foreplay/Long Time. Don't Look Back. More Than A Feeling. They have a lot of good ones.
I know this is way off in left field. But will you react to Living Colour (Cult Of Personality)
Very possible !
Better yet, Living Colour, Type.
VinAnd Sori that can be my Xmas 🎁 haha
@@fmcatfishchamp Love Rears Up It's Ugly Head.
Absolutely Cult of Personality!
Im 43 and grew up on this music. Journey Foreigner Reo Speedwagon Kansas Boston and so on.. Still amazes me that people never heard this stuff.. It play's everywhere.. I could not imagine life without the bands of the 70s and 80s. Every single one of theses bands sound exactly the same live.. I've seen all of em numerous times live
So glad you guys listened to and reacted to this song. I know it may not be everybody's cup of tea, but no matter what your age, the year you were born, there are some classics you should at least take the time and opportunity to listen to at least once. This is most definitely one of those classics.
"Carry on Wayward Son" and "Dust in the Wind" are most likely Kansas' two most popular songs, but the group was a pretty darn big rock band in the mid to late 70s. Kansas' albums "Leftoverture" (released 1976) and "Point of Know Return" (released in '77) both went quadruple platinum, and 1979s "Monolith" went platinum. All three of those LPs were top 10 on the charts in the US, and two of three were also top 10 in Canada. The title track of "Point of Know Return" was a big hit, which you may have heard parts of it, especially the "how long" chorus.
By the way, that is a Hammond Organ that you hear on this track. It's an electric organ. Some of the better know Hammond Organ players in rock are the late, great Gregg Allman, Keith Emerson, Jon Lord, and Ray Manzarek as well as Don Airey of Rainbow and Deep Purple, John Bundrick (toured with The Who), andJohn Paul Jones (bassist for Led Zeppelin but who could bang out the keys on the organ).
Love this song and band... However please may I ask you two to review more AMON AMARTH please it has been far too long now since your last reaction: Under The Northern Star, Farther Of The Wolf, Thousand Years Of Oppression, Death In Fire, One Thousand Burning Arrows, The Pursuit Of Vikings, Tattered Banners And Bloody Flags, A Beast Am I, Raise Your Horns 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Sean Egglesden I’ve probably said this before, but those are all weird ways to spell “Across the Rainbow Bridge”
So glad you guys reacted to this song
KANSAS!!! SWEET!!! You guys made my day!!! I listen to death metal, prog rock, prog metal, classic rock, AOR, thrash metal, glam metal, etc..., and I have to say Kansas is still probably my favorite band!!! Kerry Livgren is a musical genius and, although I usually don't pay much attention to lyrics, his always spoke to me very deeply. He became a Christian in 1980, but I love the soul searching in his lyrics before he found his faith. It's a spiritual journey in and of itself. And, in his prime, Steve Walsh, in my opinion, was in a league all his own vocally!!! Probably my favorite vocalist along with Michael Sweet of Stryper. You can't hear it in this song, but I love how they incorporated a violin player into their music. I have a feeling Ne Obliviscaris probably listened to Kansas.
one thing about these great classic rock songs is that once you hear them 2, 3, times, they really sink in and you'll be humming the tune for weeks.
Another good classic rock song you guys should check out , is Renegade by Styx. Great song.
As a guy who was born and raised in Kansas I hope you react to Dust in the Wind. If your on still on a grundge kick could you react to Mad Season Wake Up it was Layne Staleys Band after AiC it also had Pearl Jams guitarists and other grundge artists
Born and raised in Kansas as well. Thanks to that, I saw this band live twice. Great shows.
Yes, they do dust in the wind. Kansas the band went to school together. They grew up together.
This wipes off the dust anytime.
Progressive rock at its best. Steve Walsh on vocals & keyboards and Robby Steinhardt vocals. The band truly toured their socks off and had a reputation of a solid live band.
Nice one guys,this is definitely classic rock.I prefer Dust in the Wind also☆
Kansas is like early prog. I vote Dust in the wind reaction!! I always play it on guitar. Carry on wayward son is badass! I always sing my ass off when this song comes on.
Yep!! You're absolutely right!! That's why I only listen to rock & Soul from the 60's, & 70's, New wave, punk, from the early 80’s. The music I listen to beyond the mid 80's is Reggae!!!!🇯🇲✊🏼💪🏼
Kansas-Dust in The Wind
In keeping with your discussion about the talks between father and son, Perhaps you should listen to Cat Stevens song "Father and Son"...
You mean "cats in the cradle" by cat stevens
@@robertmcgregor1514 "Father And Son" is by Cat Stevens. "Cat's In The Cradle" is by Harry Chapin. Both are great songs about the father/son dynamic.
I do indeed stand corrected let's call it a brain fart. But cats in the cradle is my face indeed.
@@robertmcgregor1514 They are both awesomely emotional songs.
Yes, it they had an organ. A Hammond B3, to be precise. Many progressive rock groups in the 70s used it. Kansas dropped the B3 during Monolith...and lost that Hammond sound. However, it was a LOT of work to move that thing on tour, along with the Leslie rotary speaker.
This song is more characteristic of the band’s sound- Dust In the Wind is more the anomaly. Both are great for what they are. Loved the react…keep’em coming!
Please react to Aqualang or Locomotive Breath by Jethro Tull... Please,please,please X 1.000.000.000.000.000 .....Please !
That would be interesting. Not sure I've seen any reactors attempt Tull. For Vin and Sori, my Jethro Tull first recommendation would be Skating Away. I think that's more up their alley. Teacher would also probably be to their liking. Let them get their Jehtro Tull feet wet before plunging into Aqualung.
How about the entire first side of Thick As A Brick?
Oh heck yeah Locomotive Breath for sure for that...ah..unique solo (~_^)
@@chrisd7047 I requested it and the fish out of water series did it for me. Locomotive Breath I mean.
Jethro!!!!!!!!!!
It would be hilarious if you saw GWAR's version.
BAH-DAH-LAH-BOO-DUH-LAH!
It was horrible like any other song by Gwar.
Hahaha yes it's great
GWAR version is great. R.I.P. Oderus
@@andrewbrorherton6898
GWAR's cover of Billy Ocean's Get Out of My Dreams Get Into My Car is the best version of the song.
In 2002 I went to Atlanta to see Kansas film a DVD. I bought the Golden Circle ticket where I could watch the rehearsal night before the DVD filming. One thing I remember, the band came in was hanging out talking to the crew and nailing down the movements and other aspects of the show. They tested their instruments separately. But when they all came together and started playing "The Preacher" it blew me away!!! That's what a band is!!! I don't know exactly how they found each other, but they did, I believe God put them together, for the world to enjoy. There's no other explanation.
I have seen them live 3 times and they do sound exactly like that live . The best concert I’ve ever saw. The song is talking about a the trap fall of being a Christian who has backslid against God but is reassured his salvation ..,
Yes! Great classic rock song.
The ONLY bad thing about this song is it doesn't include Kansas' signature instrument, the violin. Or at least it's not very prominent in the song.
It’s kinda like a Jethro Tull song without Ian Anderson’s flute. You can live without it, but it surely adds something more...
Wayne. Are good bands out there,but they don't get the air play that we got to hear back in the 70s. Totally sux.
Down - bury me in smoke!!
Bury me smoke live version
They were all big time students of music as far as this band goes. Just out of this world
As you get older, you realize talent is NOT a rare commodity at all. There are millions of people with just as much talent as the ones who receive worldwide fame. What those millions lack is being in the right place at the right time.
IRON MAIDEN: FLIGHT OF ICARUS (official video) Epic stuff.
Thin Lizzy - Jail Break
liver666 Hell, anything by Thin Lizzy. However, if I had to pick one of Philo's songs, I'd go with "Black Rose (Roisin Dubh)".
I second that!
Cowboy Song, I saw Thin Lizzy with Kansas in, i think 79.
Kansas is one of my best band (I'm french). Woaoh ! Listen Kansas : The Wall + All the World... and many more. This band is really awesome ! With a great mastery of composition and harmony.
That's why old school Rock is categorized as CLASSIC ROCK!
Their music is timeless and classic
Dust in the wind
I'm pretty sure they find each other because God loves rock n' roll 😜
Osiris Hawk of the Village the 'god' of this world maybe.. Not the Creator and Saviour!
Kansas formed in 1973 in Topeka, the state capital. Not a big place-less than 150,000 population. Fairly small local music scene. As Vin suggested, standout vocalists and instruments players got to know each other, jammed, and the band formed, pieces coming together from different local bands.
As other commenters point out, very different time. No Internet, social media, cable TV. Only way to not be isolated was to go out. Musicians went to clubs, to gig or hear other musicians play. Small world. Best got to know and play with best. Then, playing together, they pushed each other.
As others have also said, no high tech recording gadgetry. To make good records, they had to play and sing really well. Nothing to clean up misses. Perfect conditions for very high level musicianship.
💯
Not many know that the original members of Kansas (with the exception of singer Steve Walsh) were from Kansas. They were incredible live, exceptionally tight, it would be hard to top an old school Kansas show.
Journey - don't stop believin
Rafael Henrique lol now everyone in the history of life has had to of heard that song
Journey: Stone in Love or Feeling That Way / Anytime
Way better live... but the best bands I've heard live are REO Speedwagon and Rush.
In my lifetime I’ve seen Kansas a total of 8 times live. And yes they sound excellent live. No auto tune or lip synching at any if their shows. They all knew each other in college and got together and playing local clubs. Don kirschner discovered them and signed them to a record deal. The rest is history.
I saw Kansas live at a free show they put on during the last tour they ever did. It was at a military base I was living on at the time (military family) and I can confirm they sound EXACTLY like this live. Even better, honestly. I was blown away. At the end of their set they announced that they were going to play their last song; everyone expected Carry On but it was one of their lesser known tracks. The audience was confused and a little disappointed... until the very last note of that song smoothly transitioned into Carry On My Wayward Son and everyone went wild. It was an amazing experience!
these 60/70´s bands almost all of them has hammond organ and the sound is to my liking
Love the warm sound of a (cranked up) Hammond organ with Leslie speaker. Jon Lord called his Marshall amp driven through B3 as a beast.
@@ANationalAcrobat forgot to mention 2other keyboard from that era mellotron and moog

Yes, Ray Manzarek of The Doors used it for example on "Riders on the Storm".
John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin played it on "No Quarter" in conjuction with a modular synthesizer and Moog Taurus bass pedals.
Please do Pantera- “The Underground In America”/“Sandblasted Skin”
10:35 "I'll bet you anything they sound like this live"....yep you would win that bet. They were unbelievably great live. By now, I'm sure you've checked out many of their videos. Right?
Steve Walsh is an incredible vocalist. The band is of a completely different calibur. Try "Journey From Mariabronn."
Talking Heads - Life During Wartime (live stop making sense )
