Mastedon - Dust in the wind (2009)

[mokyan7]

Huh? I have their 1st 2 albums, they don't sound like this. Actually, wasn't John Elefante the one who first sang this song in Kansas, before he left? He does have quite the vocal range. I hope the album has some more rock, though, "It's a Jungle Out There" is an awesome song.

lovely :')

[novananda]

Oh geez this is NOT Mastedon - this John Elephante on one of his solo albums...you guys smoke too much...

[stackodude12]

[MonsterMadden12]

Waiting for the heavy metal slam wait for it wait for it WTF wheres the fucking breakdowns no this is ga i dont like you anymore

[CPRpaintball]

i just died a little inside, i expected brutal drums and face melting shredding and instead I GET THIS PUSSY BULLSHIT

[mvunit3]

@CPRpaintball - I love this pussy bullshit :P Sorry, "Mastadon" was taken already by Elefante DECADES before the Metal/Prog Band (and I like stuff heavier than the newer Mastadon band, I guess that makes me a Pussy with Balls :p).

[AmericanFireBrand]

Buy this CD...don't just save it to a YouTube Playlist!!!!

[ellaswing]

Check out Lofcaudio. Great job on this song. I think I'm going to buy this album too!! Pray for their success.

[christirainey]

so how did I miss this album? love it's a jungle but my first time to see this one.

[kormoski420]

just so you know this is mastedon with john elefante who was the singer for kansas this sounds more like a rerecorded then a cover

[sweetrevenge191]

ahh, good old mastodon... Wait, what the fuck?

[Melpond]

@sweetrevenge191 glad I'm not the only one that came here by accident. I'm too high for this shit.

[thirdimpact]

@sweetrevenge191 They changed their sound when they replaced the "e" with an "o".

[TheK0niasz]

@sweetrevenge191 Ah, shit dude, you killed me. I've never seen such number of stupid funcomms at once.

THIS IS FUCKING WORSE THAN GETTING RICK ROLLED ALRIGHT?

[nameless12345]

2009, Kerry Livgren and John Elefante rejoined together in MASTEDON, performing "Dust in the wind".

[md65000]

@chuytony7 Are you serious - was Kerry Livgren involved with this recording?

[chuytony7]

@md65000 yeah I heard so, I think it was in an amazon.com review or john elefante's website.

[tozerscarpet]

@md65000 Yes, Kerry was involved. Most of these songs are available on John Elefante's new solo album "Revolution of Mind," which you can download from his website or iTunes right now. Kerry co-wrote and performed on an "epic" Kansas style 11-minute track called "Down By The Lake." Great tune. Anyway, this version of "Dust" isn't on the Elefante album, but you can download the single from iTunes.

[tozerscarpet]

@md65000 Basically, it breaks down like this - I think it was released as Mastedon 3 in like Japan and Europe or something. In the states it is John Elefante and Mastedon and its called "Revolution of Mind." Same tracks on the Elefante release minus this "Dust" track. Kerry Livgren "involved" might be overstating it, but he is a major collaborator and performer on the album's most epic and "Kansas-like" track. There you have it!!

[eddiewetter]

Awesome tune from Livgren, nice to hear Elefante sing it again. He and his brother are so prolific and creative, amazing musicians. Rock on!

[thejohnsontreatment]

"Hi, I'm John Elefante, and I was in Kansas!"

[turfturbo]

WTF? what the hell? Who? What? When?

[thejohnsontreatment]

John Elefante was in Kansas for two albums, Vinyl Confessions and Drastic Measures. In the 80's, naturally. I was just referring to the ridiculous amount of times he's covered Dust after he left Kansas.

[turfturbo]

I was just wondering what the johnson treatment is. Or do I not want to know? As for the song, some guys make an entire career out of one song. At least thats a good one.

[chuytony7]

@thejohnsontreatment how many times is it aprox. ??
