Kansas - Live - 1976 - All The World (Chicago)

[@Loehrrep]

SO many mixed genres of music. Nobody can touch their artistry!

[@TommyGriffithsVoice]

I'm 57 yrs old. My fave band since 14 yrs old...

[@scientificdevil4672]

Ive always thought this was one of their best songs. Walsh and Steinhart were incredible together!

[@eltorocal]

There's a reason for all that rhymes It's a fact and the way of the times It's moving emotion, it's high and it's low No matter where you go There is something for all who look There's a story in every book All of the pages, between all the lines So much that you can find But there's too many empty lives my friend And we just can't let them waste away For this life is a precious thing my friend And we can't wait another day There's a message in every word And it's more than the word you heard It's moving emotion, it comes like the sea Washing all over me For there's nothing that we can't do my friend 'Cause the spirit is with us all And it's here and it's now, it's up and it's down You can feel it surrounding us all. After all we're the same Only difference is a name and where we are In this crazy mixed up deal There's so many things to feel Near and far it's where you are And there's times when I can't contain All the feelings of love I'll gain It's there for the asking It's for all of you if you would take it too But there's too many empty lives my friend And we just can't let them waste away For this life is a precious thing my friend And we can't wait another day

[@joechicurel8708]

Kansas completely owns their own sound. They don't sound like anybody but. KANSAS

[@warrenlacore6642]

In my opinion the best band ever!!!

[@johnfleming68]

I second that best band ever

[@cabbey31]

They got the look too - overalls, swim suits/trunks, eye patches, etc!!!

[@gospeltruthtv]

@@cabbey31 they were definitely not your well choreographed/dressed boy band! 😆

[@frankderudder7290]

Steve Walsh IN his hey DAY WAS THE greatest ROCK voclalist OUT THERE! And the music Kansas put out was simply amazing AND so DIFFERENT from all the other bands! There unique sound and lyrics were simply off the charts! This is what music should sound LIKE!!!!

[@autk]

No question about it

[@TUBELSLIDER]

I listen to this and get chills!! Steve's voice was so amazing at this point. So pure and full of emotion. He has an uncanny ability to phrase the lyrics so well into the song. The harmonies and vocal doubling between Steve and Robby were among the best in the rock world! The lyrical content was so powerful and in today's world means so much. Too bad radio stations would never play something like this. The message means so much!

[@warrenlacore6642]

Well said

[@jacquetrosper7780]

Steve Walsh.....nothing else to say.....

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Steve Walsh, Lou Gramm, Steve Perry, Brad Delp, Jimi Jamison, Mike Reno, just to name a few.. they really raised the bar for us singers...

[@scientificdevil4672]

I saw Loverboy open for Kansas in Minneapolis 1980. Their name didn't ring a bell and I thought I never heard of them but they were kicking ass. Then the song turn me loose was played and I knew that one. I didn't know if Kansas could meet.their intensity. Then Kansas began and I knew in an instant that this was the greatest show I've seen, ever. I still have yet to see a better show and I've seen a lot of great bands. I've seen Kansas probably ten times, but that first show, all original members

[@gospeltruthtv]

It’s always great to hear 5 other musicians so masterfully highlight the amazing Dave Hope!

[@aldos7985]

The best message for today’s situation with the coronovirus Love from inside our hearts Till All the World is loving Everyday... To all the world Alex from Thessaloniki, Greece

[@markscutti9682]

Masque has always been my favorite Kansas album! As a fan since 74, and 12 concerts under my belt,this tune(plus many others),still gives me chills! Great upload! Thank you,Kansas,for the many,many,memories!

[@warrenlacore6642]

You're a great fan of a great band. I've been to ten shows, probably seen my last but who knows. If Steve came back then for sure I'd go. Have a great day and treat yourself to Kansas today!

[@phogroian1]

Walsh's voice was beyond comparison.

[@scientificdevil4672]

Everytime I hear him it sends a shiver down my spine. He was the complete musician. His keyboards are incredible too.

[@gospeltruthtv]

@@scientificdevil4672 So true! There was no voice like Steve Walsh & he was a wizard on keys. Dave Hope once told me about the time Steve showed up & said he wanted to audition as lead singer. They were, of course, blown away. Then Steve told them he also played “a little keyboard “ too! 🙃

[@linneasaoirse]

I hope deep in my heart that SW can still be proud of this one and more like it. Of course I don't know for sure of which songs he speak when he says they were written for the wrong reasons and we're schmaltzy or whatnot. But this song is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and to hear them execute it with this much feeling is just heart squeezing. BE PROUD ❤ (and yes I have this boot too and listen to it a lot, I just realised I hadn't ever made a comment on this upload and really felt the urge to☺)

[@brianduffy2361]

Very well said!

[@warrenlacore6642]

I love the comments here. It's great to have these feeds so Kansas fans can come together. Steve I'm sure is very proud of this song. It can make a grown well up in tears with all the emotion flooding in at once. Kansas is the greatest band ever from songwriting, to some of the best musicians, and to the best singer/keyboardist rock ever produced. Kansas is a band!

[@josephm.2856]

Hello LINNEA, I have been following all your music on Kansas and I always will ! You always have RARE old Kansas from the late 70's.....when Mr. Steve was at his very best. Steve has always been my favorite singer of all time. Ive seen Kansas LIVE in concert over 18 times. One night out in the Hamptons, Long Island....I guess it was around 1980....Steve tripped over some monitor wires and landed right in my arms in the first row !!! LoL... True story. Anyway, after the show, I got to meet Steve and the boys. They were all so nice to me. I couldnt believe I was meeting my favorite band and most importantly, my favorite vocalist.....It was a dream come true. MUCH LOVE ALWAYS TO THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF KANSAS. Thank you for all the amazing music throughout the years....God Bless Kansas and also..... Linnea.

[@jacquetrosper7780]

Yes. Very well said

[@josephm.2856]

THANK YOU Rickyon......Such a pleasure listening to YOUNG STEVE WALSH......belt those notes out.....sing with so much feeling.

[@rickyon]

You're welcome, Joe!

[@deborahp2823]

Steffan Pila My favorite Live Version of "All The World" by Kansas. A Great Progressive- Rock Ballad about People living in desperate times and searching for the light at the end of the Tunnel. Amazing song by the one and only, KANSAS!!!

[@pappabear379]

Thank you so much kansas for an unforgettable journey that we were lucky enough to have been taken on.

[@geordie4rdh]

I was at this concert when I was 14 and was blown away. Saw them(of course changed) last night in Durham, NC . Still are wonderful !

[@alanwebb2849]

Love that song from Masque 1975.

[@dgcmusi]

That is what made Kansas ....Everyone put in their 2 cents.....No pun intended.... I fee the music Kerry and Steve wrote together was their finest..... Great Rick.....I found this from Robbies facebook site ....someone sent him the link.

[@sancho8521]

...saw & listened 4 times. All in the 70's. Amazing virtuosos

[@lefty5757]

All time favorite Band, Masque is my all time favorite album, this is my favorite song on the album.

[@robertw.bauesjr9190]

Heard my first Kansas song at the "Flip Side" record shop in Arlington Hts IL in summer '74. Purchased the album right there and then; am now 66 still enjoying their music is timeless!!

[@gerryjalove]

Excellent Rickyon...I was at this concert. If memories serves me correct, Rory Gallagher was the warm up band. This concert was amazing...thanks for sharing a great memory ! Peace !

[@pmac6366]

Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing this gem with us.

[@marcelolima1666]

I love this, I love Kansas

[@ogrebattle22763]

Kansas had their own style & sound which seperated them from other rock bands of the 70's & when a band can achieve a sound & style all their own that fans can identify them with that's a sign of greatness...

[@randytrader3026]

I was in the 10th grade and knew this album inside and out.. Kansas is the best band ever..

[@am2boni]

A classic song!!! God Bless Kansas!!!!

[@stevepila2731]

Steffan Pila This is a great Live version of "All The World" by the greatest Progressive Rock band in the Midwest, KANSAS!!!! It reminds me of King Crimson or maybe Early Orleans. Thanks and Cheers!!!

[@19agathulla61]

Awesome version - great Robby on violin! Thank YOU for posting !!!

[@RunnerInPeoria]

This band was so tight.

[@JimDeRuntz-ed8xk]

Thank you Kansas, your songs and music has helped me think in ways that I don't think that I would have if I had not been introduced to it.

[@JimDeRuntz-ed8xk]

Inspirational, would be an understatement, IMHO, Kansas BROUGHT US THE BEST!!!

[@TheNotoriousDUDE]

Good job on this great performance, Rick! This is one of my favorite tracks on Masque :-). Michael.

[@minjoem]

I already have. I let my 2 brothers know also. The word is quickly spreading about your increadible selection of rare gems. Life is so great and you have brightened it up.I am eternally grateful to you.

[@minjoem]

Everything you say is true but do not forget about the people that have loved Kansas through all the years (decades) getting reminded how incredible that the were as a live band both visually and performancewise. These vids are timeless gems for us. This takes me back to my teens.

[@Clayton139]

This has always been one of my Most Favorite songs rickon ! - You did good !

[@Jefrsn1]

wow! simply beautiful! the heavy start to the soft finish. wonderful msg. cool.

[@tjb2791]

Outstanding! Probably my favorite tour or possibly a tie with the Monolith tour

[@gospeltruthtv]

I first saw Kansas on the 1978 Point tour. Amazing! I was in Huntsville for their first show on the 1979 Monolith tour. Absolutely amazing concert! Steve Walsh was well rested & sang every song spot on to the album.

[@fretfix1]

Man...the Monolith Tour was phenomenal!!

[@GRILLBUOY101]

hate to repeat it but stev has been one of my fav singers just somrthing about him i guess its greatness!

[@TUBELSLIDER]

Outstanding live recording! One of the best songs written by Walsh! I would love to hear them play this song live today!

[@minjoem]

Rick - Thank you for these gems!!!

[@Jefrsn1]

That was incredibly awesome! from start to finish. Wow why can't this get some airplay?

[@TopJimmyWinn]

3:55

[@martinkulkarni3569]

My favourite Kansas song, and I’m probably the biggest ‘Wheathead’ in the UK!

[@Gooch1268]

These guys rock man!!

[@eltorocal]

From the mountains to the sun Life has only just begun We wed this land and pledged our souls to meet its end Life has only just begun Here my people roam the earth In the kingdom of our birth Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun We are mighty on the earth, on the earth You have come to move me, take me from my ancient home Land of my fathers, I can't leave you now We will share it with you, no man owns this earth we're on Now the wheels are rolling, hear the howling winds of war It's my destiny to fight and die But is there no solution? Can we find no other way? Lord let me stay Under the endless sky and the earth below Here I was born to live, and I will never go, oh no But we cannot endure like the earth and the mountains Life is not ours to keep, for a new sun is rising Soon these days shall pass away For our freedom we must pay All our words and deeds are carried on the wind In the ground our bodies lay Here we'll stay

[@rickyon]

Thanks Clayton.

[@olgaimber]

Тот редкий случай, когда живое исполнение звучит лучше, чем студийная запись 👍🏼👍🏼✨

[@Mr01081960]

Awesome tune

[@marcelovictor8808]

Thank you for this video...❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kbur8450]

I remember them from way back when they came into my dad's Lumber yard & hardware store in need of lumber to build their own stage. That's was so long ago and never missed a concert or buying their albums until the original members broke up. They weren't the same. Nobody sounded like they were in the same rhythm. Original band always sounds better than the copy.

[@warrenlacore6642]

That's a great story. You're right, they never were the same.

[@readsnw]

Sorry to hear you are missing out on the new incarnation of the band. They sound better than they have in ages, and they are having fun, as is the audience. Yeah, Steve and many others are gone, but Steve's voice has been gone for years. They are still better than 99% of the groups out there playing. Maybe go see a show and see for yourself.

[@denniss1044]

MASQUE was an underrated album. Been a fan since LEFTOVERTURE changed my life at age 15

[@strattuner]

you're absolutely right,they tour for the fans,naturally they get paid but expenses on the road are amazing,no, anyone of them could teach i'd pay to jam with RICH

[@jacobsviolin5083]

beatifull

[@overturemerch8792]

thx's for share,....

[@rickyon]

You're welcome.

[@slcttr]

long ago, pulled this one off, with a strat and a bow...

[@scientificdevil4672]

A great memory. And such a good song!

[@Jefrsn1]

sunshine and pleasure

[@alexandre22252]

the second part is very nice mainly when a song of the violin

[@rickyon]

You're welcome!

[@aodsupport777]

VERIU BEST SONG

[@montbob100]

The first 6 albums were fantastic.Peaked at leftoverture I think.

[@db321g]

Monolith is great

[@wadehardin]

If you go to Wolfgang's Vault in music department.You can download 6-8 Kansas Sound board recordings. Will download as zip file.$5.00 per download. Uncut recording from the late 70'd to 80's Not a bad concert in the group

[@rickyon]

wadehardin, Thanks, I am aware. Most of those shows were from the batch used to create Two For The Show.

[@bobsandler4563]

Thanks for posting. Where in the world did you find this?

[@rickyon]

You're welcome. It's a bootleg in circulation at some of the better boot sites.

[@Fortinclan]

Great boot, but does it contain the complete song?

[@rickyon]

I have never run across the whole song. This may be the way that they performed it on that tour.

[@amys7215]

What happened to the dozens of live footage from the 70s on KZbin? Stills are ok, but there used to be.....

[@rickyon]

There never were dozens of live videos from the 70s. Almost every thing was audio only with pix or sometimes just one pic. If you saw dozens I’d like to know where!

[@amys7215]

Sorry. I used to watch them. Peace.

[@rickyon]

@@amys7215, sorry but you are wrong. Everything that was ever posted from the 70s is still on You-Tube and maybe even a couple more since your last comment. Are you sure you’re not talking about the 80s or 90s? I should know. I used to scour the internet for 70s live video of Kansas. It just wasn’t there.

[@amys7215]

@rickyon if it makes you happy to think you're right, have at it. I can remove videos, you can remove videos, bands can remove videos..... but thanks for your opinion

[@rickyon]

@@amys7215, I am part of a vast network of Kansas fans who have been connected to every bootleg, file sharing and trading site for many years. If you noticed there are several hundred Kansas videos on my channel. Many sent me copies of anything that they found to put on my channel here. I, along with these dozen or so Wheathead Brothers would be in a position to know what and if was out there through all of these years. You are just plain wrong or making it up. There have only been possibly a dozen live videos of Kansas from the 70s and I can name them all. Can you offer proof? What did you see? By the way, you can still find them all! The ones that exist are still out there. They never went anywhere!

[@SuperGorak]

@ianmackenziedavis technique vs. feeling, my friend.

[@ianmackenziedavis]

Most of this proggy stuff is self indulgent garbage....but at least kansas had nice melodic structure built over some nice passages in a few attempts...unlike most of what ELP and Yes did, which with few exceptions was crap! Walsh sang better than those other guys and this band gelled better as a band. They were also bluesy, which was cool!

[@michaellund5965]

You are a moron.

[@trinidadvelasquez9752]

Ian Davis your whole posting is, as you say, "self indulgent garbage" the said bands you mentioned are pure genius. You, on the other hand, need to learn and appreciate great progressive music when you hear it.
