There’s a reason ‘classic rock’ never dies. ❤
Reactors are always "bring back this kind of music" and I'm all "it's right here all over the internet!" Here's 20 songs you have to stop and hear right this second lmao.
12:17 ... "I wish this shit would come back" .... We ALL do young man. We all do.
😊
Ha ha, a convert. 😊
IT NEVER LEFT. Gen X will not let it die! It's right here on youtube for y'all....DIVE IN!
They are still touring.Just seen them in May.Alive and well.
Kansas has two fairly recent albums that are both excellent. Check out new Kansas such as "Throwing Mountains" or "Song the RIver Sang" - Amazing.
When he was so mesmerized by the voice in the first minute....How many smiled knowing what was to come?
Dean, anyone...? 😢
ME!!! I love his facial expressions too - he just can't believe what he's hearing. I feel so lucky to have grown up with this kind of music and musicians. NO AUTO TUNE! Kids today don't know what they missed out on. That's why I love these reaction channels :-)
💯.
@@luckylisa5496that’s real music-babythat is REAL MUSI 5:39 ❤
😊😊 YUP!
Boston, Kansas, Chicago, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon, Toto, America, Journey, Steve Miller Band, Bad Company, Supertramp, ELO, The Cars, The Band, Cheap Trick, Styx, Whitesnake, Golden Earring... The list of great 70s bands is endless
Deep purple
And for something completely different… there were the Talking Heads, Blondie, Roxy Music, The Jam, The Police, Mott the Hoople, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Elvis Costello, and and and 😜
John Cougar Mellancamp
Don't forget Bachman Turner Overdrive!
Three Dog Night (Mama Told Me Not to Come)
'And if I claim to be a wise man - it surely means that I don't know' Word.
Welcome to the 70's, when singers could actually SING without autotune
Yes and play multiple instruments. My music!😊
Some groups has more than one lead singer too, like Three Dog Nights.
Not that they had a choice in the matter. LOL
Remember, NO Auto-Tune, NO Click Track, NO Digital Editing Tools, 100% Talent, lets see today's musicians (and I use the term loosely) do the same thing.
No tabiture
Amen!!!
Those Explorer's are beautiful!
facts!
No bloody way they come close
And now you’re starting to understand why us old farts (63 here) say that our music was better. Because it IS! I was privileged to grow up listening to New York City radio stations in the heyday of FM radio in the 1970s. Spoiled for life! P.S. That was actually three-part harmony, not just a duet.
I'm 62 and grew up in in eastern PA, we were able to get the NY and Philly stations. We had some great locals as well!! 😎
I was stuck with CKLW out of Detroit for AM. They were pretty good tho especially having the local talent from the area!
Amen!!!! 62 here
61 here. Music wasn't better. A different music for a different time. I do get a bit tired of the "stuff was better in my day" nonsense.
@badmiddens No question we had the best music. Everything after the 80s is pure junk. Talent was on display in our generation. Now? None of them can really play an instrument, for it is all machines. It is not nonsense.
Welcome to the 70’s when there was no auto tune and you had to have real talent to make it.😊
I would like this comment 1 million times if I could...👍
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
All truth!!!!
That’s how they created their fan bases back in the day…playing live shows and being very good at it! ARENA ROCK!!!
This is what I love whenever I listen to ANY genre of music before 1998 - the vocals took MANY real takes to get it perfect - not 'I will fix it in post after 1 bad take with "autotune". You can clearly hear how smooth and real it sounds!! None of my music has any pitch altering done to the songs as I want them to sound real. Also many of them are a first take and no edits to remove bad bits. So when they are good - they are really that good and best of all REAL!
"Dust in the Wind" needs to be your next Kansas song. It will show you how versatile the group was.
I was thinking point of no return because he Loves the vocal, so much.
But yes it was popular...
I think it should Magnum Opus or THE PINNACLE NEXT on the list
Fight fire with fire😂 play the game tonight❤what’s on my mind awesome songs😂
When you talk about the 70's, we didn't have Spotify, but we didn't need it. This was the radio. Boston, Zeppelin, AC/DC, and on and on and on and on.
i just imagined u wake up one day and turn on radio and hear this song for first time ... no rewind or anything ... omg
Every two weeks, another classic album was released.
Sooooo many future rock gods were in such a great place. Every album was magic
70s and early 80s glad I was there.
Yeah, no internet until 1989
This mate is the cream of the crop..ahhh 70s everything was magical especially the music!!!! I'm so happy you are enjoying a unique time in music history ❤ You are definitely an old soul you appreciate raw talent 😊
@@TexasRivermedic Maybe that's when it was invented, but really mid-late 90's before the common person had it.
Steve Walsh..an unbelievably underrated vocalist. One of the best..without a doubt.
These dudes were so good that they named a State after them! 😆😆😆
😊
Perfect comment
Yes and their state loves them ❤❤❤❤
😂
I'm an old dude, damn I love watching young people enjoying the music I grew up with... keep doing your thing, young brother!!
I wonder how many of us are singing along with this. 😊
@@missiestricklin3364all the cool kids are ❤😊
I've actually seen them in concert a few years back. They're still awesome!!!
@@megnotmegan1966 makes me want to watch Supernatural!!!
@@missiestricklin3364 well then you are an awesome person, that show rocks in so many ways!!❤️
Kansas is referred to as America's prog rock band! Amazing band! Steve Walsh has an amazing voice!
Great call on “American prog.” Multiple transitions, time signature changes, executed flawlessly. Multiple virtuoso level instrumental pieces woven together.
Right there with Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Rush.
You're right! I was in high school when Kansas came around and had no idea what prog rock was, but they definitely fit into the genre!
Lol
And still not in the Hall...crime
When I was 15, I caught my mom rocking out to it and realized she was actually a cool person. Music conquers all the divides! I'm 60 now, and still watching the different ages come together over music.
I'm 75 and I hear ya. Rocking into my grave.
Yes its everlasting - mbtv
@@kathihein5524 jus a baby still i quess at 55🙂
Great music will always be Great music...
Damn straight your mom is cool! Most of us moms are, our kids just don't know it...😉🤘😎
Steve walsh was a great singer and is never mentioned on any list of best vocalist in Rock
Cause people are deaf he's definitely one of all time greats
My hero.
Period.
True but there was so many missed voices. I mean Lou Gramm is just now getting in the RRHOF with Foreigner. Just now. Crazy.
We were spoiled so bad in the 70's. New albums and songs like this came out every week. And we were all there for it. Rock On!!
My kids CONSTANTLY ask me “who is that”. Son was into Death Metal, took him to a George Clinton concert. My boy is converted. My daughters first concert was KISS/Poison
Molly my boy…you have NO idea what waits for you in
the air waves! If you continue on the journey you’ve
started, there is nothing but joy and appreciation waiting
for you. Will be watching, for sure! Peace.
Ditto!
Exactly
No doubt, enjoy the ride !
I'm 62 years old and YES, we really did grow up with the best music!
More arena rock!
Styx ~ Renegade
Styx another great band
Definitely great! Man I haven't listened to Styx forever, time to change that!
@@amymbeauty8765 Crystal Ball!
So much good stuff!
Cornerstone was one of my first albums 😁
Is that the street light or the moon?
@@williamreiser3118my dad became a professional drummer and did cover bands like all these classics. He was trained by the drummer from Styx.
I will never tire of watching young people's reactions to "real" music.
The best part of being 72 years old is that this and all the other classic rock music is what I’ve listened to for most of my life!
Agreed Richard...we saw it blossom and it will rule forever as the Best 3 decades of music..60's through the 80's...
With the advent of electric instruments..the creativity was unleashed and experimented with...all the talent was real talent..not auto-tuned...you had to have it to make it...🌿🌿🌿
Yes🔥🔥🔥🔥beautiful masterpieces from fabulous singers n musicians
Being old now is the price we pay for being young in the 70s, and i wouldnt have it any other way. Truly a decade of awesome music! Loved your reaction!
Do some Bad Company, Foghat, Nazareth and Doobie Brothers
It’s so awesome seeing someone truly blown away by something I heard over 40 years ago
The only thing that made me happier today than that you finally heard Boston is that you finally heard Kansas.
I’m a 73 year old lady and I sure enjoyed watching your reaction. Just found your channel a few minutes ago. If you haven’t listened to it yet, give Dust In The Wind a listen it’s my favorite song by Kansas. Listen closely to the words. It’s totally different. I think you might like it. That’s just my opinion of course. I hope you continue your journey down the path of songs from yesterday. Take care and be safe and well.
Kansas and Boston came out in 1976, that’s why I believe the 1970s was the best decade in rock period.
Also from 1976... J. Geils came out with the live album Blow Your Face Out... one of the most iconic intros in the history of rock... Wooba Gooba and Raputa the Buta... ha ha 😜 Rock and roll with a horn section.... and Harmonica... Think Mollyboy is ready for some Magic Dick? (for those that might think I'm being dirty, that was the name of the harmonica player)
And don’t forget Styx and Foreigner….
So much better than anything that followed that 50 years later and a decade of music is still everywhere.
Rush 2112 also came out in 1976, definitely a great year for music, but there are a crapload of great bands that came out since then and are around today. All eras have their studs and duds.
Just FYI, the first Kansas album came out in early 1974 as well as their first single, which, as I recall, was called "Can I Tell You Something." Both the single and the album were very cool.
Ahhhh the 70’s. No autotune, no dubbing. Just pure talent and fantastic musicians that had to perform live and always sounded as good, if not better than the studio recordings. Miss it!
Hey MollyBoy. As an Ol' Timer I can't express how awesome it is that you are reacting and enjoying so many of the bands and music that I grew up on. My opinion is that so much of the old school 60's and 70's music was and is the best music ever created. Great to see the newer generation like you getting turned on to it. Carry on my wayward son!
70s rock had the most overall talent of all rock eras. Turn it on, sit back, and enjoy.
I am from Kansas and so is this band, these guys are the sound of my 1970s childhood in a big way. Check out DUST IN THE WIND too!
Another Kansan here too. Heard them in concert as well. Such a great band. I'm also glad to have heard this music back when it was new.
Saw them in Salina with Black Oak Arkansas!
Wichita born, Kentucky livin’. This song is special, man.
@@mattlentry3936 small world! Raised in Newton Kansas, husband born and raised in Kentucky.
Wichita, KS here.
Also in the 70's there were no personal computers. There was no autotune. Analog recording is what we had. Six track reel to reel was popular. You had to actually sing and play an instrument and write meaningful lyrics. Talent.
You’re helping us who appreciated these old songs, really appreciate them the second time around because of new ears listening. I kept waiting as the song was going along for you to get to certain parts and was totally grinning when you had to rewind the intro right away. Great reaction. 😊
Molly Boy it warms my heart how you connected to this song/music...just imagine when we experienced the new sounds of rock each year..we were glued to radios and headphones for the total rush and celebrated with joy as we drove the highways with freedom in our ears...those were glorious days...
Welcome aboard...
🌿🌿🌿
So glad I was a teenager in this time period.
Ditto!!! My God, the talent we had access to. Just by flipping on the radio every day.
@@Eowyn187kk
Wasn’t it amazing! I miss those days
Bought this album 🤘
🇬🇧 I reached my teens in 1977. And I feel blessed, lucky & honoured to have been born when I was, even if it does mean that I'm old & knackered now!😮😅
I personally rate Kansas as America’s greatest prog rock band. ✌🏼😎🇺🇸
I really enjoy seeing someone hear this era of music for the first time ever. This was but one tune on the soundtrack of our lives back then. No autotune, no sampling. It was all original. 90% of the music released back then was just this good or better.
70’s Rock is the Best generation ❤️🔥🎸
In the 70's we didn't computers. smartphones. videos or spotify or you tube. We only had the radio to music! IF YOU want to experience authentic reaction, listen to it w/o the visuals.
Would love to get their reactions hearing it on vinyl thru a high-powered stereo amp, surrounded by the bass from the woofers. A few of us used to hook up literal PA boxes and stage monitors with 15's and compression horns in our living rooms. Ah, those chest compressions...
Couldn’t agree more. Great comment!
Another thing about 70’s bands: they WORKED for their success. Album, tour, album, tour. For years. They were truly talented and were not handed a recording contract because they were eye-candy. Feel lucky to be a Gen X and growing up with this music.✌🏻
Dust In The Wind next. It's a Kansas must!! Fantastic reaction!❤
If you ever get time alone, Listen to their album Point of No Return, A Masterpiece in the making.
If you're impressed by higher octaves, then check out Journey.
Can you imagine waking up daily to this, and a myriad of other amazing tunes back in the day? Real talent - real music! None of the pre fab, auto-tuned garbage that rules the airwaves today... So sad what kids have to listen to today... 😠
First Boston and now Kansas. Holy cow.
Kansas, Boston, Journey, Rush, AC/DC, Zeppelin , and then Metallica!!
This song opens with literally the hairiest human being I have ever seen in my life. What a remarkable song here!!!!
Yeah but he sings like an angel and plays a mean violin 😊
LIFELONG, I MEAN 61 NOW, BEGAN BANGIN' THE KIT @ 4. CELLO & TROMBONE UNDER ONES' BELT ALSO.
KEEP ROCKIN'!!!! CHECK ALL GENRES, EXPAND!!!! YOU ARE DOING FINE BRO!!!! ROCK IT!!!!!!!
I've seen this comment before with the same exact wording... 🤔
@bickleyjonas6145 interesting. It's a wonder how 2 people might think the same thing isn't it 🤔
Can't you imagine him in therapy whining everything he eats taste like hair (double extendre not intended but it is there)
Growing up with the best music of all times was awesome. Old school will never die. ❤
We were fortunate to have lived in the era of great song composition and great musicians.
"Dust in the Wind." Kansas.
Love, love, love , “Dust in the Wind”!
Give Point of No Return a listen to.
Steve Walsh was an incredible vocalist in his day. He has a storytellers voice
If you like 70s voice, try some Styx with Dennis Deyoung
Welcome to the 70's classic ROCK!...
When my youngest was like 4 yrs old she'd only say this was the Supernatural song lol. I mean she wasn't wrong 🤷🏼♀️. I love this song.
I was going to say that too....only the ladies would know Sam and Dean 😍😍
@@tracyrichards6545 I am a Dean girl but I wouldn't exactly kick Sam outta bed 😉😂
Iconic song which as become the tv series Supernatural theme. The band played this song at the San Diego 2017 convention in Hall H in front of the Supernatural fans. Minds were blown.
@@Jimack Wow that must've been absolutely amazing!
@@stacyragland3123 Dean and Castiel... either/or/... yuppers
Seriously dude, all other reactors should quit! By far the best music reactor I've seen on RUclips up to this point
The radio dial was busy in the 70s..elvis still playing, old 50s, 60s/70s, folk, disco, pop, Elton john types,southern rock, hard rock, and the random metal station for priest led and maiden (usually at midnight. For the me the king biscuit hour), and even country. It was AWESOME.
Miss King Biscuit, and don't forget those Hootnannies in tv
they weren't many rock stations so the dial was set and you listened to what they played.......one song would be soft rock, the next song would be heavy metal, then country then disco.....you didnt get to choose the genre, you just listened and appreciated all types of music.......until rap music and hip hop came out.
Yes, the radio played all genres back then but really all of it was called rock and roll, except for country.
For anyone that was raised in the 70s like myself...our ears were blessed with this kind of music all the time. Just turn on the radio. Any band that came out with a new song during that era.. had to bring it! The level of talent was so high (i.e., Led Zeppelin, Boston, Kansas, Floyd, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Bad Company.....and the list just goes on and on....that there was no room for junk music.
Thank goodness we can still listen to it either on our vinyls we still possess.. or on RUclips.
Love watching the younger generations reacting and loving this music.
Great reaction ❤
I’m going to say it again lol
Gen X had the BEST rock
You are not wrong! 🤟
70's is more like boomer music. I was 18 in 1975 when so many great songs came out and the very oldest gen x were only hitting 10 years old.
You do realize that all the band members for 60s and 70s bands are baby boomers right?
@@billbitterman9487 I was born in 70 so yes but I’m also Gen X and Gen X is from the 70’s. I grew up listening to these bands
I didn’t say they were born in the 70’s lol 🤦🏻♀️
IT"S KANSAS band!!! All people knows this band !!!! Poor kid...
Another Genius is Bob Seger. “Turn the Page” is a masterpiece. It is a great place to start.
"Roll me Away". "Like a Rock". Bob is the best!
@@PaulWalker-hz6zp Night Moves!
@@PaulWalker-hz6zp Indeed; add “Sunspot Baby,” “Get out of Denver.” Guy’s a master. Soundtrack from my childhood.
And then do Metallica's turn the Page
Love to hear Roll Me Away. Molly Boy, gotta do some Bob Seger - especially because I am from Michigan and he is a hometown hero. You got me beat being from Birmingham.
I was born in 1952 and grew up listening to all this music and still listen to it all. Some of the best music in the world
Kansas were the American top prog band another you should watch are Styx with Tommy Shaw on vocals you'll like. I enjoy your genuine enthusiam to discover the greatest time in music..
This was when music involved, musicians… today not so much all manufactured productions..
Dude, Kansas has a pretty large catalog of great songs, I could give you a dozen more you need to hear right now. They were every bit as good live as they were in the studio and was an amazing group of musicians capable of writing songs with lots of progression changes, tempos, and lyrics that could have been poems. Love your channel and love seeing someone getting to hear this type of music for the first time. I see it in your eyes, there ain't no faking that shit and I am jealous that you are hearing these songs for the first time. Keep on doing your thing dude, I really love each reaction you do !
Don't feel bad.
This song makes me cry, too.
It really is that beautiful.
The 70’s was the best time to grow up and enjoy the radio in the car
And the cars weren’t too bad either! ☺️
Kansas is my absolute favorite band. Steve Walsh is the lead vocalist here, keyboards, percussion. Robbie Steinhardt (huge hair) is the violin player and sings lead in some songs. Kerry Livgren is the guitarist (white hair), keyboards, chief songwriter. Phil Ehart on drums. Rich Williams on guitars(tux.), and Dave Hope on Bass. This is the original lineup from 1974's debut album Kansas to Song For America, Masque, Leftoverture, Point Of Know Return, Monolith, Audio Visions 1979. Carry On Wayward Son is from Leftoverture (masterpiece), Dust In The Wind from Point Of Know Return (another masterpiece) Thank you for reacting to my favorite band! By the way, this is Progressive Rock. I hope you react to more. I recommend: The Wall, Miracles Out Of Nowhere, What's On My Mind, Cheyenne Anthem, Magnum Opus, Point Of Know Return, Dust In The Wind, Portrait He Knew, Closet Chronicles, Lighting's Hand, Sparks Of The Tempest, Nobody's Home, Lonely Wind, Can I Tell You, Journey From Mariabronn, The Pinnacle, Song For America, Incomudro-Hymn To The Atman, Icarus Borne On Wings Of Steel, People Of The Southwind, Relentless, Hold On, and Relentless for starters! Great band, great songs! Enjoy!
Yes molly boy, We had all the great bands back in the 1970's
and 80's and 90's the rest is a pure shit
I turned 10 in 65 I went thru some of the best music ever! God is Good!
My favorite band. That legendary vocalist is the incomparable Steve Walsh.
When I was in high school this was one of the songs played often on the bus to out of town games. Ahhhhh......real music played by real musicians. Can't beat it.
I'm so glad you liked this. If you didn't, I would have had to unsub. Do "point of no return" next.
The 70’s was a virtual buffet of talented, passionate, and dedicated musicians banded together and whipping shit up!!
These were actual musicians , a lot of the crap you see today is so digitally compounded together. These guys had to actually play instruments.. lol
Great song.. great band.
An Aussie boomer here.
I grew up spending my pocket money on LP records like Kansas’ Leftoverture. There was plenty of crap then too, but there was so much serious quality available.
Just watching your face as you discover the music of my generation makes me smile. Thanks Declan.
Personally I loved Billy Thorpe's Children of the Sun. Do you he's ready for that?
Yes !,my young friend, this is why my generation grew up with the best music of the70s & 80s!
I was born in 1960 and I was completely spoiled. The music was completely off the grid amazing!
Welcome to the Kansas rabbit hole!!! An AMAZINGLY talented band that sounds the same in concert as they do on their albums. Truly an outstanding progressive band.
You really like it ????! Ha,ha WHAT"S a DUUUUUUUUUUDE!!! It's classic !!!!!!!!!
Remember this is your journey, we're just along for the ride.
I grew up in the 80s and didn’t appreciate 70s music back then, but I sure do now.
Saw them in concert around 1977. Fantastic concert. Real talent back in the 70s...... vocals & instruments. Great album.
The 70's, great rock bands and the beginning of metal, a time when you wanted to listen to the radio. Up the Irons!
Everything Kansas did was pure GOLD! They are AMAZING in concert. Those were the days of perfection in music. And yes...1970's...of course.
You have hit classic gold. The music of this Era is still viable and badass today. Enjoy young man😊
Another excellent pick dude. Welcome to 70’s rock.
I love watching you enjoy the songs of my youth. I hope you keep being honest like this, it makes me appreciate the music even more!
70s rock bands....next level talent ❤
We were spoiled with music!! I for one took it for granted. Looking back, I see how fortunate we were! Im so happy to see young generations appreciate and making sure this music goes on. ❤️✌️
Toto „Hold the line” is a must have 😊
A Real Classic, Great Music is Great Music, Timeless
It's awesome watching the grandchildren realize that grandma and grandpa were way cooler than they knew. I really miss going to those concerts in the 1960's and 1970's. I know there's a lot of great bands out there today. But in this old as dirt grandma opinion, the rock music from my generation is just simply unmatched.
Great genuine reaction Mollyboy. I could see it in your face just how much you enjoyed hearing and experiencing Kansas for the first time. Keep the great music coming.
Howdy y'all from the Great State of Texas 🇺🇸
born in 1965, I grew up on this music !
Kansas is one of the GREAT bands.
The 70's really did have the most amount of musical diverse creation... It was truly magical.
Loved when this song came on the radio in the late 70's
All talent, no filters or auto tune.
I saw Kansas and R.E.O. Speedwagon live in Edmonton, Alberta in 1977 or so. At that time REO was the headline act. Well. let me tell you that after Kansas finished their set the audience was basically spent. After that they headlined their own shows.
