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.

[@Defensive_Wounds]

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!

[@ellendunn559]

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.

[@victoriahinklew]

1977. Kansas was a bar band in a sm town in Kansas. They had sent a demo to an Eastern producer who called the bar & was told they would be at that bar in 2 wks. The band thought they were going to them. So they printed 500 fliers. Ea band member drove to the sm towns in a 50 mile radius & nailed them on ph & elec poles & placed in windows of shops, business & restaurants hoping to fill the bar. The sign read FREE beer!!! Come watch the band Kansas. History was made. Place was packed, hundreds in line & hundreds in cars bumper to bumper for miles.... As close to stats as i can remember. They got their 1st contract

[@Nikki-l5p9y]

Sweet story. I wonder what the bar tab was!

[@discinmike]

I appreciate your love for the band. But being an eyewitness to their organic generation of prosperity, I would like to share. I moved to Topeka Kansas spring of 73. Their hometown. I was attending Topeka West. I watched them play in the outdoor amphitheater on campus and fell in love with the violin. Shortly thereafter they produced their first album. Then we watch them play in the school auditorium in 74. The story we heard was that they were out in Hays Kansas playing A bar there and that was about the time of the story of the distributing of the bills to come and watch them play. Don kirschner at That time signed them to contract for his Don kirchner's rock concerts on Friday nights. To this day, Robbie steinhardt's violin is arguably the best rock and roll violin ever. I would say their first four albums are their most creative. When you write and arrange all your own music and two of your songs are played more than any other song of that era on the radio To this day, 50 years later you deserve to be in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame.

[@C.Brooks2007]

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!

I personally rate Kansas as America’s greatest prog rock band. ✌🏼😎🇺🇸

[@souflikar6702]

I'm 60 years old and still hoping that one day, I can turn on the radio and hear new music as good as this and so many others from the 70's

[@LoriLynch-bt8tj]

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.

[@jeremyefowler4982]

The musicianship of so many bands in the 70's is beyond compare. The singing, the players. Unreal.

[@jefffrey4844]

This song opens with literally the hairiest human being I have ever seen in my life. What a remarkable song here!!!!

[@shannontorrey]

Yeah but he sings like an angel and plays a mean violin 😊

[@bickleyjonas6145]

I've seen this comment before with the same exact wording... 🤔

[@jefffrey4844]

@bickleyjonas6145 interesting. It's a wonder how 2 people might think the same thing isn't it 🤔

[@lightatthecape2009]

Can't you imagine him in therapy whining everything he eats taste like hair (double extendre not intended but it is there)

[@robertutes4850]

Kansas, Styx, Foreigner, Rush, Steve Miller, Boston, Journey, REO Speedwagon, Eagles and many others were of the same category back then, a lot of good music you still need to hear, there was a lot...

[@user-gz9jp3fj2d]

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.

[@michaelhoilman6897]

Miss King Biscuit, and don't forget those Hootnannies in tv

[@jacklewis5452]

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.

[@susanroe3367]

Yes, the radio played all genres back then but really all of it was called rock and roll, except for country.

[@danimi361]

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.

[@russellhaddock-xr4nk]

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 !

[@trumpjr5179]

The 70's, great rock bands and the beginning of metal, a time when you wanted to listen to the radio. Up the Irons!

[@neillenet291]

Yes molly boy, We had all the great bands back in the 1970's

[@ST1973]

and 80's and 90's the rest is a pure shit

[@suepall5425]

I was born in 1960 and I was completely spoiled. The music was completely off the grid amazing!

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

First Boston and now Kansas. Holy cow.

[@jeffreymacintyre2711]

Kansas, Boston, Journey, Rush, AC/DC, Zeppelin , and then Metallica!!

[@jeanniebryant1555]

Growing up with the best music of all times was awesome. Old school will never die. ❤

[@turnthepage1972]

Remember this is your journey, we're just along for the ride.

[@KarenCatMom2]

Your reaction just brought back me back to a evening in 1976. I had just graduated from Tennessee Tech University. I was getting ready to start my first full-time adult job the next day. I have moved into my first adult apartment and my roommate and I were decorating and listening to the radio when they introduced this song for the very first time. It just took me to another place musically I didn't have a video to watch I was just hearing the music and felt it to my very bones. And I still do to this day. I just turned 70 a few weeks ago. Kansas is a special band and there were many of them in the 70s. I miss good band music that's why I listen to oldies more than I do contemporary music today. There's some great singers today but it's just not the same as the bands, the harmonies and the different instruments coming together to make such a beautiful sound. I wish I'd gotten to see them on stage live. I got to see a lot of my favorite bands but I never did get to see Kansas.

[@CherylHarper-o4b]

Listening to the took me way back to the beach in So. CAL

[@keithspillman]

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.

[@andrewgarin2486]

I was just a little boy back in the 70's when this came out, but I can never forget hearing it for the first time.

[@ashleymcgriff270]

Dust In The Wind next. It's a Kansas must!! Fantastic reaction!❤

[@praxisvoiceworks]

That is one of THE all time classics of Rock! Period!

[@jacklewis5452]

This is ranked as one of the top 100 classic rock songs.

[@r5photography]

The 70’s was a virtual buffet of talented, passionate, and dedicated musicians banded together and whipping shit up!!

[@davidme9698]

I turned 10 in 65 I went thru some of the best music ever! God is Good!

[@evelynne2846]

Saw them in concert around 1977. Fantastic concert. Real talent back in the 70s...... vocals & instruments. Great album.
