nobody out there today can touch kansas.i have seen them 4 times and will see them again in 2 weeks at the nc state fair.they are rock icons,period!!!!!!!!!!
i dont really want the best band in the world associated with the rock n roll hall of fame who has grand master flash in it. it would be an incredible insult to me and god
i'm a drummer of over 27 years, and kansas tunes are what i cut my teeth to when i was beginning, and of course rush as well, but this tune is just incredible. i don't know how many times i've pplayed this and it never gets old. classic....
This is my favorite Kansas song. Everything about it is perfect. Kerry Livgren is the best! He has no equal. Kansas ruled the 70's and early 80's. Why they are not in the Hard Rock Hall Of Fame is Unbelievable!
@marhill77 You're so right! I guess their music isn't "hard" enough to be in the Hard Rock Hall Of Fame, but aren't they in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall Of Fame?
i am an offspring of a music. i have seen miracles and i am a kinda madman. i see the laws of 8s, connect to music, physics, astronomy, everything and the Fibonacci sequence that goes from the DNA(molecular), the quantum theory(subatomic to Planck's constant ) the formation of human's to the formation of the earth, the comos and beyond. GOD has something to do with it so i guess i am real a madman for the ultimate truth.
@martel732 very true. e.g. my friend whos fav band is arcade fire but in my opinion they are no match for kansas such skill and finess put into their music. love it :D
this is the song of the prodigal. god will always take you back. moreover, he'll accept you, regardless, if you never knew him or left him, unconditionally. livgren da man
great song. it brings back my high school days. great band; in that i mean that these musicians really gelled and wrote and performed as a unit. thank you.
Excellent work my friend! I love this song! You get everything about Kansas all rolled up in one tight tune! Beautiful musical and lyrical beginning to the classical Bach type middle with lots of crazy time changes and layered counterpoints to the kickin' rock statement with awesome guitar work and the majestic ending!Perfect example of the anatomy of a Kansas song. Great photos too!
beyond this being a mind-blowing performance, Robbie's voice is probably at its best in this recording IMHO.
