A faceless band commercially, but one that blew so many known acts off the stage when they were coming up. In 1975, you prayed that Kansas didn't open for you.
I was there! One of the best concerts I have ever seen! Thanks! I remeber they played the Uptown to make a recording for a radio broadcast and we were lucky enough tto catch them in a smaller venue. Awesome night!
Nice job dude! I classify this as one of the best songs for them to play live. I find it interesting that there are several very good soundboard recordings from the 80-81 AV Tour but only one (storm damaged one) from the 79 tour.
Thanks Cooper! I've posted a very clean and great sound quality recording of "OTOS" from a 1979 concert in Springfield, Missouri. It was a bonus track from the '94 box set (I'm sure you already knew of it). So someone (probably Kerry) has the master recording for at least one show from the '79 tour that is top quality! Perhaps more? I understand that Sony owns the rights to all of that stuff so they need to consider releasing more of that stuff!
This really shows how they are not just a studio band.Not an easy one to perform live! To see how consistent they are check out the post at the front of Related videos that I put up some time ago. It's from 8 days earlier on the same tour. Not exactly the same but every bit as tight and spot on!

Love this, Rick! Rarely had a band used the Violin like Kansas! And did they use it well!

I love the clarity and also how tight these guys were back during this time ..
When Kerry had his hand on things they were much tighter.
This is the best one you have on here Rick.
