      I often see people comment how the 80's were the best decade for music and there is no doubt that there were some great and memorable pop/rock songs in that era. However if you dive deeper into 70's music, its pretty obvious which period had more quality across the genres.

    • @MoMoMyPup10
      @MoMoMyPup10 10 днів тому +3

      @@Progbassist people that say 'the 80's' are probably mostly those who grew up in the 80's, that for many it was their initiation into really getting into music with their friends -- it's 'home' for them nowadays so they're partial to that.

      They still make good music, it just requires searching. Good stuff used to be top 40 on the radio. Nowadays, the best stuff goes largely unnoticed. Check out 1) Nathaniel Rateliff " time makes fools of us all" released 3 days ago 2) War On Drugs " clean living" 3) Beth Hart - Spirit of God. Even the old bands are making their best stuff. Styx's 2017 album " the mission" is their best ever. Check out " red storm".

    Love this song! Kansas was a great band from the 70's. Their musical style is a fusion of hard rock, southern rock & progressive rock. "Carry On Wayward Son" & "Dust In The Wind" are their 2 biggest hits. But they had other good songs such as "Point Of Know Return", "Hold On", "People Of The South Wind", "Play The Game Tonight", "Fight Fire With Fire", "All I Wanted" etc.

    Just transport me back to 1978. Saw them in New Haven Connecticut. One of the best summers ever. I saw The Eagles, Styx, Jackson Browne, Frampton, Boston, Foghat, Kiss, The Outlaws, and The Moody Blues. And a little known band called Van Halen who opened up for Black Sabbath. Sabbath had a bad night after Van Halen left the stage. People went nuts for Van Halen. 15 year old me was transformed that year. I must have done a lot of babysitting because my parents never would have paid for a concert ticket for me.

When Ann Wilson (one of the most iconic singers, male or female, in all of rockdom) heard Steve Walsh singing, she paused their recording and went next door to see who the hell was behind that incredible voice! That's pretty high praise.

    I think this song is about returning vets. The different tempos shows the various emotions. Anger, fear, horror, insomnia. Then the lyrics....listen how they accurately reflect those emptions. In particular, the returning Vietnam vets, who were DRAFTED and were spit on and reviled. Young boys who had no idea about politics......exposed to horrific tragedies. "Lay your weary head to rest...dont you cry no more." Listen again now and think about it.

    My favorite band of all time: Steve Walsh-Lead Vocals, Keyboards, Percussion, Kerry Livgren-Guitars, Keyboards, the main song writer, Robbie Steinhardt-Violin and Lead Vocals on some songs, Phil Ehart-Drums, Rich Williams-Guitars, and Dave Hope-Bass. Carry On Wayward Son was the song that was their first hit, their debut, Song For America, Masque were their albums before Leftoverture. Their first 3 album were superb, in my opinion, but like Boston's debut, not a bad song on Leftoverture. Point Of Know Return is superb, Monolith and Audio Visions great as well. Vinyl Confessions came next featuring John Elefante as their new lead vocalist-Keyboards and guitars, great as well, but without Steve Walsh. Drastic Measures was next, not great, but had some good songs. I lost track after their album Power, but The Prelude Implicit and Absence Of Presence are stellar! Thank you for reacting to my favorite group since 1974! I hope you react to more! Anything from Leftoverture and Point Of Know Return(Dust In The Wind or Point Of Know Return are great choices, they're the hits), Closet Chronicles, Lighting's Hand, Sparks Of The Tempest, Nobody's Home are all great choices. Hopefully you'll react to Can I Tell You, Lonely Wind, The Pinnacle, Song For America, Incomudro-Hymn To The Atman, Icarus Borne On Wings Of Steel, People Of The Southwind, Relentless, Hold On, Got To Rock On, Play The Game Tonight, Chasing Shadows, Window's, Crossfire, Fight Fire With Fire, End Of The Age, and Incident On A Bridge. Again Thank you, I hope you're well! I'm looking forward to your reaction!

      Mine also! My sister who is not a big rock lover thought Kansas wasn’t a band but an orchestra. Couldn’t put it better myself.

    I bought this album in 76.
    Point Of No Return is another great album.
    Helps that I was born in Kansas too.
    Fun reaction

    70's obligatory Al Stewart comment🙂: I went to my first Al Stewart concert last night, absolutely fantastic! You must see him while he is touring! Fan since Song on the Radio was a song on the radio. Only Al would do an encore with a song about William McKinley (25th president) and explain how his election strategy is a life lesson for dealing with relationship breakups. Your Al Stewart reaction videos are the only reactions I rewatch, and I'll watch them every few months. Back to your regularly scheduled great Kansas comments...!

    Ahh brings me right back to high school! Only in the 70s could you have a rock band with a huge guy in bib overalls playing a fiddle and it was cool. Kansas was amazing live. Thanks guys.

    This is a BANGER!! Unofficial theme song of a little show😊called Supernatural that ran from 2005-2020. It’s played at different times throughout the 15 yrs of the series. It fits the story lines in that series to a T! Jensen Ackles&Jared Padalecki were playing brothers whose journey was tough. NOTE: There’s a live concert vid from the 70’s that I wish you would find and watch. In 2024 it’s both funny&Amazing.

    You know what is American? Kansas. “There’s no place like home…” I don’t know why I laughed, but I cracked up.

    These guys were emaster musicians. This song was a big hit at the time, and for good reason. It was also featured in the soundtrack of the Henry Winkler/Sally Field/Harrison Ford movie "Heroes" that came out around the same time.

    The video shows them performing this live and it’s incredible. The lead singer is playing organ and congas as well!

    Easily one of the top 3 classic rock songs of all time. ALL TIME.
