*LOVED* growing up in the 70’s!!!!! We had the *BEST* music!!!!!
Sonja, we sure did. Class of 77!
@@g.e.5723 ‘79 here!!!
@@sonjarussell7332 I was a freshman in '79 and thankfully had older siblings who loved classic rock.
Class of ‘78! Some of the greatest music ever! I discovered Van Halen when they warmed up for Bob Seger at Bay City Summer Celebration Concert at Bay City Central High School ,summer of ‘78. Kansas was one of my “go to” 8 tracks!😉😁
66 and was fortunate to grow up with the absolute best music!!
One of the greatest rock songs ever! I guess us Baby Boomers had some brilliant musicians making some brilliant music! Really hasn't been as good since those days. Kansas is a prime example of what our generation created! Magnificent!
We had no idea! The decade of the '70s was a musical peak in the development of Rock. I hope future generations are inspired.
Yes it is one of the greatest rock songs ever,and us Boomers are having a blast watching others discover it,on this and other great 70's songs,seeing new generations reactions on what we already know is great,it's priceless!
The boomers get to claim them, but it was Gen X who got to grow up with the amazing music of the 70s and 80s. The Progressive Rock movement includes such bands as Yes, Pink Floyd, and Rush, all of whom can be pointed to for amazing musicianship, composition, and songwriting from top to bottom.
@@HeavyTopspin They're still a Boomer band. Hey, young people today can listen to and love the Beatles... that doesn't make the Beatles a GenZ band.
@@HeavyTopspin boom generation was from 1946-1964 (lasting close to 2 decades). In 1980 the youngest would have been 20 years old. That generation witnessed the birth of multiple genres of music. My kids were Gen X and Gen Y/millennial. I shared music from the 60s through 80s with them and we listened to stuff from the 90s/early 2000s together. Tragically, my Gen X son lost his life to fentanyl during the Great Recession. The pain of that loss persists but those decades of music always remind me of the wonderful times we shared.
I believe we should try putting more emphasis into getting to know and respect all generations-music can help to make that happen.
Peace and thanks for listening
-An ok boomer
A good rule of thumb: if the song pre-dates MTV (very early 80s and earlier), odds are it won't have a traditional music video. For older songs like this, most often than not, the official music video is video from a live performance/concert, synced to the studio recording. That's why you see so many 'official music video' titles on seemingly concert performances.
Excellent explanation of what's going on in these older "official videos".
Also look at who posted the video. If the band put it out there it’s probably the best version you’ll find, whether it’s the studio version or a live performance. (Maybe you did that this time but it didn’t seem like it.)
Again, thank you for your reaction to the music we took for granted when we were growing up!
Sometimes they will have a fan created video.
@@libertyresearch-iu4fy And that's what this video is! It's not perfect, but still well done, and I'm sure was a lot of work!
Back in the 70's, all we could hope for was to catch our favorite bands on Midnight Special or Don Kirshner's Rock Concert on Saturday nights. If we were lucky we would see American Bandstand or Soul Train. I think that's why my generation went nuts over MTV when it started.
The guys in this band were all trained classical musicians and attended the University of Kansas...hence the band's name. I saw them live in 2010 just before Steve Walsh (lead singer extraordinaire) retired from the band. The entire band is just amazing, and they're every bit as good live as they were in the studio, perhaps a tad better, if you can imagine that. Thanks for your reaction, man. This is one rabbit hole you'll want to go down... 😊😊
Honestly,. they didn't meet in college and they aren't all classically trained. They were in various bands playing around Topeka, Kansas in the early 70s and members of rival bands decided to team up which is how the band was formed. The rest of what you post is pretty accurate though - they were very precise onstage - live performances were musically as perfect as any band touring in that era.
@@stpnwlf9 I stand corrected...one can only go by what one stumbles across on the stupid 'net. Besides, I'm 73 and don't have a lot of time for extreme research, if ya get my drift...LOL! I wish I could find that link again to at least explain why I posted what I did. Doesn't matter either way...STILL an outstanding band...in my book, anyway 🙂🙂🙂
@@guidosarducci i grew up in Kansas and had friends who attended Topeka High School who knew several members of the band. As I recall, they were all from the Topeka area except for Robbie who I think was from Manhattan.
@@stpnwlf9 Robbie grew up in Lawrence, and his father was director of musical history at the University of Kansas.
@@stpnwlf9 And Steve Walsh was originally from St. Louis, Missouri.
Anyone that loves Supernatural loves this song as well. It became an unofficial theme song for the show. Kansas even played for Supernatural at Comicon in 2017.
Have you heard the acoustic version by the female duo Neoni? They played it in the last scene of supernatural and it destroyed me. I still can't listen to it. Carry on wayward son has been in my top 5 songs Since I was in high school and first heard it (1981)
I was looking for this comment haha
@@lesaahrenstein6360 I HATE that version! And for it to be the last version is a slap in the face to Kansas!!! How the accapella version done in 'Fan Fiction' is beautiful
I was looking for a spn comment!!
This sounds like the soundtrack dubbed over a film of them in concert. You got the best of both worlds.
That’s exactly what this is. I’ve been listening to this song since it came out in the 70’s and this is definitely the studio version.
I noticed that too. Good catch👍🏼😊 Whoever worked it did an awesome job too.
Yeppers
Modern technology for it's time
The video is from the old Don Kirshner's Rock Concert show, which in OKC came on after The Midnight Special. In the Kansas documentary they talk about it. Basically they played live in an empty studio. Yes, many times the studio audio was dubbed over the video.
This song sounds as fresh as it did when it was first released! This is why rock music is rare today. The quality cannot be duplicated.
Steve Walsh was a force of nature. One of the greatest rock singers of all time. Personally my favorite. No one sang like Steve in his prime.
Brad Delp from Boston is in the same league for me
Agreed S.W. was a freakin POWERHOUSE 🎤⚡💪🔥💥
I saw Kansas decades ago they blew the roof off the joint easily one of the best I've seen. I uploaded a few of their deeper cuts to my channel.✌
Dude was????? I saw a video of them playing a couple of years ago and he still was hitting those big notes like it was Tuesday!! Man the guy is timeless.
@@eviekelpie1 Brad was a literal genius!!
First concert, Kansas and heart. Can you imagine?
You're just now getting around to this epic masterpiece? The whole "Leftoverture" album is a classic. I saw Kansas live at the old Checkerdome in St. Louis back in either '77 or '78 (can't remember which now) and they rocked the place.
God I miss these days
Dang, man, you're famous just for seeing them in their heyday. I worked with a guy who saw Boston, Led Zepplin, The Who, etc, back in the late 70s. What a great time to have gone to rock concerts. At least I got to see the Eagles in 2014 before Glen Frey passed away.
@@crunchyhippo8957 I was very lucky to have seen most of the bands I wanted to see in their heyday. So many of those great concert venues like the Checkerdome have all been torn down now. But I guess I'll have all those great memories until dementia takes those too LOL.
Nice. I saw many concerts at the checkerdome in the very late 70s and 80s, not much for acoustics but great memories, didn't see Kansas until early 90s at Mississippi nights on the landing, and Kerry livgren just happened to be with him that night, he was wearing a yellow stripe and shirt with red suspenders, great show of course.
Checkerdome! You are effing old. love you Cheryl
Keep it real and spectacular.
If you haven’t yet seen Robby Steinhardt play the violin, you’ve got a lot of Kansas left to cover. “Miracles Out Of Nowhere” is a great place to start!
That is my favorite Kansas song! But I rarely listen to it out of the context of the album, except in cases like this.
@@MissAstorDancer , I get that, the album is one of those front to back listens!
This is a pure masterpiece. The 70s were so amazing. Just another example of why we older people (I'm Gen X) think today's music is overwhelmingly trash. (yes, there's a few exceptions)
I'm a Boomer and was sixteen when this came out!!! Loved Kansas! Boomers and Gen X had the best music! I feel sad for this generation! They don't have true music!! They are all shocked and amazed, pleasantly, at music from our generation.
I love older music. I like newer music too. Though now I'm getting to the part of my life where I dismiss Gen Z music the way my parents dismissed mine... Huh.
As a gen Z i agree.
@@lauracostello3153 I know, that's why it's so fun to watch music reactions. To see young people start to realize what really great music sounds like, the quality, diverse sounds & styles, creativity, no autotune, real instruments etc. So many of them end up saying they wish they were around back then.
@@lauracostello3153Everything is true music, it’s between good and bad!
So great to see your generation enjoying the great music of my generation. Anything Kansas or Boston is amazing. 70’s child here!❤️
60s child here and I agree 100%.
You definitely need to watch one with Robbie playing his violin. You can't go wrong with any song you pick. One of my favorite bands ever
He just recently did. I'm watching it next
Dust in the wind
Two things - ....and to think that they are NOT in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!! What a joke. 2- I saw them open for Heart and they blew Heart off the stage IMO.
If you ever watched the series Supernatural, this song was used as their theme song.
It is a definite rock and Roll Hall of Famer - - this song is, as well as the band. To me, we had the best music in the 70s!
We were very spoiled in the 70s, this is the sound of my childhood.
Kansas had so many great songs. They are true professionals, everything is PERFECT!
Kansas and Rush ruled the 70s and 80s imho.
Don't forget Yes.
This is a masterpiece of classic rock: every movement has its own purpose and personality. This is probably the "magnum opus" of this group (although I'll admit to not having heard all of their music). I will listen to this song EVERY time it comes on.
Next Kansas suggestion: "Point of Know Return".
Magnum Opus is a different Kansas song. Ok, I just couldn't resist.
This is their most popular rocker, but either "The Wall" or "Miracles Out of Nowhere" could well be the "magnum opus", at least from this album. On "Point of Know Return" (catchy title track), there's "Closet Chronicles", "The Spider/Portrait (He Knew)", and "Hopelessly Human". Then there's the highlights from the other albums...
Now you see why I said you should catch the official video that's live for "Dust In The WInd". Even if you only do it on your own time, it's worth seeing. The red head who was singing back up is also their violinist and he's amazing to watch in that video...
The guy with the big hair is Robby. He was jamming because there's no violin in this song. I'm SO glad you picked this version! I made the comment in the last video that the singer plays two instruments and I knew you'd be blown away. Kansas has so many different styles, Point of Know Return is another great song - ua-cam.com/video/iFWtsT5zRKo/v-deo.html
R.I.P. Robby Steinhardt
Robby.. he famously spelled it Robby with a 'y' he hated the 'ie'
@@aaronherbison7316 Thanks for the heads up. I hate when people spell my name with a 'y'. Fixed it.
@@jodij6280 there were actual tee shirts printed in Robby's honour with the ie in a circle with a line through it., Quite funny really but each to their own 😊
This was an awesome reaction! It was soo fun watching you appreciate this incredible song! 😀
Kansas is an insanely talented band. Many great tracks to choose from. Along with the popular suggestions may I add "The Spider/Portrait (He Knew)". A good combo of their prog and more traditional rock sides.
It was huge when it came out and for years after but when the CW show Supernatural used it many times in the mid 2000’s (it was great), all these younger people heard it and made it blow up all over again. Supernatural had (and still has) legions of loyal viewers and they took this song right back to the top of music pop culture. Yeah it and Dust In The Wind were their two most commercially popular songs but that didn’t mean they weren’t/aren’t amazing songs! I’m 54 and this is one of those great songs I’ve known from early childhood. Love to see young people keeping great music alive.
"Point of Know Return" is also an amazing piece of music. Loved these guys for years; really happy you are discovering them as well. I'm sure the rabbit hole will be well worth the trip. The producers used this song as season finale/"The Road So Far" opening video montage for "Supernatural" for all fifteen seasons. I don't care how many times I hear their music; the songs have stood the test of time. Wonderful reaction on your part! Thanks.
I am a metalhead and huge fan of classic rock. This has always been in my top 5 songs. Then it became the unofficial theme song for the best TV show ever ever supernatural. Have you heard the acoustic version by a female duo named Neoni? They played it in the final scene and it destroyed me.
And, "Point of Know Return" was NOT written by Kerry Livgren. That, to me, is incredible!!!!!
People my age know ever word and every beat by heart. This is 70's classic. If you lived in the 70's and dont know this song, you are were probably dead.
ok, I'm old. I first heard this song back in 1976 and Steve Walsh's voice STILL gives me goosebumps.
One of the greatest rock songs of all time. You chose the right version. You can watch in awe while your ears are blessed.
Other Kansas classics, 'the point of no return', 'the wall', 'song for America' 'what's on my mind'.
Music of the 1970’s no one can beat this era
WooHoo! So glad you liked that. It's one of my favorites. PEACE!!!
The muscianship of these guys is outstanding and fantastic vocals. Great band.
Now you know why the 70's was the greatest decade for music even with disco.
I missed the whole disco phase because I was into Neil Diamond at the time. I got back into classic rock when disco faded.
When bands used to really jam onstage. They were flawless in concert.
The "Leftoverture" and "Point of Know Return" albums came out when Kansas was at its peak. The album "Masque", which came out the year before "Leftoverture", had many good songs, including "Icarus - Borne on Wings of Steel", "Child of Innocence", and "Mysteries and Mayhem/The Pinnacle".
Agreed. Masque is a highly under-appreciated album. Great songs start to finish.
Been wondering when you were gonna get to this banger. Pure fire!!!
70's rock, cannot beat it.💪
Sweet proggyness right there!
Robby Steinhardt passed on in 2021 - he was such an essential part of Kansas.
i can watch this kansas video over and over and i have lol. steve walsh on lead vocals, keyboards, AND congas is MESMERIZING ❤
i also like "dust" and "point of know return" but "carry on" is timeless. 1976 gave us this and "year of the cat" and i am forever thankful 😊
and yes, the official video is AMAZEBALLS so you made the right choice 👍
Your taste is impeccable
Year of the Cat was a great song. By Al Stewart.
Original Kansas are geniuses pure musical geniuses 👏❤️🦅☘️👏
This song isn't just a song. Its an anthem.
Welcome to the world of Kansas- one of the most underrated bands of the time, and still going strong on this their 50th anniversary. Their most recent album (2020 or 21) went to #1 on the rock charts.
Thank God I grew up in the 70's and 80's!!
Kerry LIvgren went on to play on many paradigm Christian rock albums and made his own excellent contributions to the genre. A real inspiration to our "guitar brothers"....
"The song that keeps on giving." You got that so right. 😂👍
I was part of the class of 1978 and almost everyone I knew had the "Leftoverture" album and the "Point of Know Return" album. "Point of Know Return" would be a good next one to listen to.
Growing up in the 70's we had the BEST music EVER made... that was pure 100% Rock and Roll. Won't ever hear that nowadays. the talent doesn't exist anymore!!!!
Yup! You made the right pick. That's epic 70s rock. IMO, you can safely do the same with "Point of Know Return."
One if theeeee best songs ever written by one of the greatest songwriters Kerry Livgren (guy on guitar and piano with blonde bob haircut)
I was a junior in high school in 1976 when this album came out. I got to see Kansas do this whole album live in 76 and it was just superb!! The musicianship was absolutely spot on, never missed a note, guitar and keyboard work were clean, vocals were perfect! Oh, and Kansas was the warm-up band for a new group you might have heard of - Boston.
I will STRONGLY recommend a Kansas song for your listening pleasure: Song for America. It was the title track of the album before this one, 1975. The poetry is jaw dropping!!
Same age and same time I saw these guys. I’d have to really think about the dates, but I probably saw REO the month before and ELO the next month and so on. What a time we had!
I actually saw Kansas in concert and they are the real deal. This is my favorite song by them. I’ve been listening to it for over 40 years. It still sounds great after all these years. Carry On!
Absolutely HUGE prog rock band, just stellar! Thanks for your reaction.
Wow. Thanks for yet another stroll down memory lane! Haven't heard this in a minute! Great song and great reaction!
The seventies was the greatest decade for popular music
he he he he i am glad to see that you are injoying this band as much as i did when they just came out. you have a great ear for music
These boys are literally about 30 minutes west of me and Topeka from where they grew up, many of them at any rate. So much so that I had older roommate who is like 22 and I was 18 in college and he was from Topeka and he knew those guys, and he actually had some of their hand-me-down band equipment in his massive stereo setup.
When Kansas exploded on the scene in the mid-1970s, it was just a greatest blend of really good rock and storytelling and melodic stuff, with some Progressive elements. And it was quite ambitious. They had many hits, and there is so much to check out and I know that you would love it.
And in fact at least two of their albums, Point Of Know Return and Leftoverture, were regarded highly as entire album masterpieces.
Check out Portrait (He Knew) about Leonardo da Vinci, Miracles Out of Nowhere, What's Going On, and, of course, Dust in the Wind, about the impermanence of life, and it was rooted in Native American spirituality and it became a huge hit as well a bit later for them.
So, Robby steinhardt, the guy with the huge beard, and this one he's acting as a multi-instrumentalist and a strong backing vocalist but the band basically has at least a couple lead singers but they were also good vocally and good at what they played. But Robby steinhardt is really well known for his violin playing. It didn't happen in this particular song but it's they're a lot and his is a signature part of the Kansas sound, and you can hear it in at least a few of the songs that I mentioned, but he was definitely feature prominently in Dust in the Wind.
I saw Kansas half a dozen times during the mid 70s to mid 80s. Man, Steve Walsh was one hell of an entertaining frontman. The dude would be singing his ass off, going back and forth from the keyboards to the center mic, would jog in place playing keyboards, doing quick HANDSTANDS on his keyboards! He was wild, like an Energizer bunny. An amazing vocalist and keyboard player, as well was entertaining showman....and that was just ONE guy in the band! The others are all great as well. Such a great band.
I have seen Kansas live 12 times since 1977. They are always great and never disappoint. Welcome to Kansas.
Most of us have only heard this a million times considering the constant radio play.....great song!
Now you know why we all went nuts when this song came out.
Those older bands didn't really do many actual "videos", so the live performance IS the video with the radio track laid on top.
Steve Walsh is the lead singer.
Check out the very progressive song called "Journey from Mariabronn'
Walsh is absolutely terrifyingly phenomenal in it.
This is on my short list of perfect songs. As you said, the song that keeps on giving.
Props to the songwriters of the world because I have no idea how someone stares at a blank sheet of paper then ends up with an incredibly complex masterpiece like this.
Kerry Livgren, ( he’s the blonde guitarist in the video) wrote a lot of Kansas’ music. When he was a young child, his Great Aunt Lily would play classical music records for him, and after listening together, she would engage him in discussions about the intricacies of the music and also tell him about the composers’ lives.
Us old folks had some great music!!!🎶
These guys could switch instruments with each other, and you'd never know the difference! 🤘🏻🤘🏻Saw them twice in concert in the late '70s...amazing!
63 and still loving my rock n roll ❤❤❤
The guy with the long hair is Robby Steinhardt, he plays the violin, which you heard in " Dust in the Wind". I believe Steve Walsh was the lead singer, a very talented man too. I saw them live onky one time in like the late 70s early 80s, it was great.
they ARE f-in' GOOD! (and as you can see, they REALLY enjoy what they are doin') 'Dust In The Wind' is a cosmic ballad.
All this was high school music for me and my friends! A real fun time waiting for the next record to make it to the record store! 😎
Thanks SalvoG! I was waiting for this one. You don’t disappoint! Great reaction!
Bands back in the day actually worked for their paycheck unlike today.
1977 at home cranking this song - my father came home and yelled, "Turn that down!!!" Kansas rules then and now.
If you held a concert of each generation's top groups, the 70's would CRUSH every other generation. I was born in 69, but still find myself loving the 70's more than any other generation; and you can throw in other genres. Earth, Wind and Fire, Parliament Funkadelic, Cameo, Brothers Johnson.... Rock and Funk/Disco from the 70's was FIRE!
Man,music just isn't the same anymore. My babies were little when this came out, and it still gets me today! I'm so glad I passed on all the great music to them.
I’m thinking you really enjoyed that one!! 🔥🎸🎤♥️
I really enjoy watching you really enjoy the music we had EVERY DAY!!!
71, I graduated HS in 1970, and watched the Beatleson Ed Sullivan as a 12 yr old!! We lived in an incredible time, never to be repeated.
It's not live, just looks like it,
Right, It's dubbed over ❤ I saw them in 1983 with
John Elefante as the lead Singer &
With Steve Walsh the original Singer
In Atlanta around 1997.🤘
Bebbe, when I tell you that bands from the 60's and 70's were built different, I ain't lyin.
This song will forever be linked in my mind now to the TV show 'Supernatural', it became like the theme for the whole lives of the two brothers on the show, Sam and Dean. That show ran 15 seasons!!
Timeless Classic!! Dust in the Wind is another Classic that I never tire of listening to. These songs never get old. Super talented group!!! I loved Robbie's hair, it was Awesome!! RIP Robbie.
I forgot how good Kansas is...their voices are really spectacular. I love this song.❤ All of these reactions are reminding me about how fun it was. Thank you❤❤
Steve Walsh has some of the best vocals in rock. Some of those notes he hits are so pure and powerful. 1.o
SO glad you listened to this! Thank you 🙏 ❤
This was their big breakout hit, with the next album’s “Dust In The Wind” hitting #1. This song was introduced to a younger generation via the TV show, “Supernatural,” which pretty much adopted it as their anthem.
The 60's and the 70's I grew up with these guys. And other fantastic bands. This is when the music was good. Check out deep purple, child of mine. Incredible song.
I want you to consider that when this song hit the charts in 1976, Kansas had competition from the Eagles, the Doobie Brothers, Boston, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, the Grateful Dead, and a host of other great bands. I was lucky enough to have seen all of the above mentioned bands, as well as several more when I was living in Tempe, Arizona.
I was at LAX once heading home to New Orleans and it was chaos due to weather and delays. Southwest put a sign at the boarding gate that said that it was really crowded, sold out flight etc so it would be helpful if people could " carry on their wayward sons".
Our graduation ceremony song 1978 was Kansas' Dust in the Wind. Yeah. We were hard-core. Lol.
"dust in the wind" LIVE is a killer!
The dude with no instrument plays violin when you hear one which is quite often in Kansas songs!
Dust in the Wind was their most successful song. This song recently (the last 15 years) became a hit again due to the massive hit TV series "Supernatural". If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. The '60's, '70's and '80's had the best music. period.
Classic rock at its finest. This is the studio track synced with the live footage. I saw them in 81 and they were awesome!
Definitely one of the greatest songs of all time.
You should try some of the more progressive Kansas masterpieces such as Song For America, Lamplight Symphony, Journey from Mariabronn, Magnum Opus, Incomudro: Hymn to the Atman just to name a few. They will blow you away.
This is the closing theme of the 1977 movie "Heroes" starring Henry Winkler, Sally Field and Harrison Ford. I don't know if it was written for the film or if it was coincidently the perfect fit but both song and film were released about the same time. One of those films you gladly have to watch several times to catch subtle details that will alter your understanding of the story you have seen. Killer performance by Sally Field.
Great film. Watched it as a kid stuck with me
"Dust in The Wind" and "Play the Game Tonight" are two more of my favorites from them.
Point of know return, yes that is they spell 'know.' It's my favorite song that they do.
Best reaction I have ever seen to this song! You appreciated every single part of this classic rock tune,which is now on your personal playlist no doubt.
This album is a masterpiece...for sure
