Kansas - Relentless (live 1980)

Live at The Summit, Houston TX, December 9th, 1980. This song is from the "Audio Visions" album. What makes this video special is that it's got all 6 original band members. The Houston concert is the only complete concert on film in circulation before the band lost their lead singer Steve Walsh.

Yeah this album kicks! I hate it when people bash this album and monolith just because they are not quite as good as PONR or leftoverture. There isn't much difference at all.

Holy shit...they seriously need to remaster this footage and release a DVD. This is too good to be lost to buttcrack of time.

@cooldudebailey -- Funny thing is, he owns the name now.

@Smithfieldis -- Livegren was very religious and , as the lead songwriter, had the most to say about content. One reason that Walsh left when he did.

@cooldudebailey ...tiny drumkit with only one bass drum..not cool in the 70s !..if you didn't display 2 bass drums in the 70s..u sucked..plain and simple!... when Van Halen arrived , they took it up a notch with 4 bass drums! ( perhaps the stupidest unnecessary mockery of performance I ever saw.. but what can u expect from a shitty egotistically ridden group with a gay frontman and a drunk lead guitarist?)

[Smithfieldis]

is this band about religion..? Love to God & Jesus.. all that stuff?

[cooldudebailey]

the album is god as well as the footage, but the only thing that makes my ass tingle with curiosity(lol) is the fact that the filmers didnt think they had the need to show Ehart(drummer) that often. What did they have agianst him?

Long live Kerry Livgren!

I saw this tour in three different cities. Great Show! Good eye on the hug ruthee12. I was really bummed when Steve quit.

[JonP1961]

Kerry is the riff-master

[ruthee12]

take notice to 4:27 robbie sort of hugs steve.

myself , being a true kansas fan tells me that the deal was done (walsh was gone) and it was robbie saying good job man!

[fredramsey]

I wish to god someone would tab this song.

[roojunk]

Wow. I forgot all about this song. I love how Steve has to play with one hand while holding the mike. They had to do it all, no samples, triggers or loops.
