Hope you all had an awesome New Years guys! Was time for some KANSAS! What’s the next track we should check out by them?! I think we’ve both heard Carry on my Wayward Son before but maybe we could do a ‘Review’ for that one? Either way let us know whatcha want!! 🔥🤟🏻

@hamabrewer 4 года назад

Andy & Alex I’ve never felt compelled to suggest a song for you guys but you absolutely need to check out “No One Together” by them. It is one of the most musically complex songs you will ever hear and it will have you absolutely LOST in the sauce. I first heard this song before I knew anything about Kansas and the transitions and chord progressions absolutely blew me away. It’s a Bohemian Rhapsody type song in that way. To add to the music, the lyrical content will have you thinking. Please, you have to check out No One Together. I’ll go back to not commenting now😂👍🏼

@moefeaux1442 4 года назад

"LONELY STREET" is a BANGER!!! Crank it up beotch!

YES .... A rock in the cosmos they say ... 😂 ... Let them hit their 50s and they'll realize that all they are is truly dust in the wind ... To dust we came from and to dust we shall return .... It's not about what we've built .... It's about us .... It runs much deeper .... Kansas summed it up perfectly

@markrobertdevison1227 3 года назад

@lisazaccardimeunier8378 4 года назад

Quite possibly the most perfect song ever recorded. When it was released, it was impossible to avoid. It was such a hit!

@fawnebrown4619 2 года назад

To me, Carry on Wayward Son is THE perfect song. But for sure Kansas may have the best one, two punch with these two songs, which are so very different.

@jeffcobb2734 4 года назад

Kerry Livgren was just doing finger exercises in his living room on his acoustic guitar and his wife said, "That's beautiful, you should make a song out of that." That is literally how this song was born.

@michaeldavid6284 4 года назад

+Jeff Cobb And it almost didn't make it on to "Point Of Know Return". They needed one more track to fill out the album but couldn't come up with a tune they thought would work. Finally Kerry reluctantly played this for the others; it was unlike any other Kansas song they'd recorded...and it became their biggest hit.

@sourisvoleur4854 3 года назад

Another part of the story: When Livgren paid it for the rest of the group there was dead silence when he finished. One of them said, "That's our next single." It was their first single to break the top 10 in the US.

@irishgrl 4 года назад

Kansas did for electric violin what Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson did for flute ;) Edit to add: there’s a reason why us Boomers keep hyping groups like Boston, Journey, & Kansas. We know good music. It shaped us. And we miss those days. So, thx for bringing those days back, & for helping us remember how we felt listening for the first time 👍

I'm a Gen-X'er and I grew up with the early 70's music (and the 80's). What an excellent time for music! I remember listening to the first Boston album when it came out and discovering groups like Styx and KISS as they were first coming out!

@bradsmack1 4 года назад

irishgrl: What do Boston, Journey, and Kansas all have in common? They were all signed to CBS Records......Boston on Epic, a Columbia Records subsidiary, Journey on Columbia proper, and Kansas on Don Kirshner's Kirshner boutique label, also distributed by CBS Records! Win a bar bet with that one!

@TheDesertRoseRanch 4 года назад

Kansas is LEGEND; you've barely scratched the surface. LEFTOVERTURE is a must own album.

@greenshp 2 года назад

Totally agree! I had every one of their albums, but I think Leftoverature is second. I would put Point of Know Return first. It was the third album, I believe, and to my ear it was more mature musically. Indeed, you could listen for hours and barely scratch the surface of their genius.

Here's why I love you guys: There's another music reaction channel I'd check out from time to time, and while I found some of them interesting, they always seem more interested in analyzing the song critically than just simply drinking it in emotionally FIRST then getting into the other aspects. With you guys - while sometimes yes, I can see your brains working certain things out, for the most part you simply sit back and let the music work it's magic on you...you're FEELING it, not THINKING it, if that makes sense.

Kerry was a searcher and he was reading a book on Native American philosophy when he wrote this ..there is also Socratic as well as De Carte present in the lyrics ...he ultimately settled in to Christianity .

@@andyball8379 not post, during. happened on the Monolith tour in 79, and it's what drove both Steve Walsh and Robbie Steinhardt out of the band in the early 80's. Monolith is based on themes from the book of Urantia, while much of the earlier stuff is his spiritual searching through Buddhism and numerous others.

Please have a listen to Derick And The Dominos, Layla. I think you both will be blown away by it. Bonus, the second guitarist on this song, is the lead guitarist on Whipping Post that you so enjoyed.

It blows my mind that someone hasn't heard this song. I've never owned a Kansas album but adore this song like almost everyone else. I've heard it well over a thousand times in my life just by conservative estimate. It truly is a timeless classic. Glad you were finally baptized into it. The message is a tad cliche but no less profound.

@pontiuspilot5887 4 года назад

Not so much a cliche to someone 72 years old. It wraps up my past and whatever I have of a future. Peace and Love and Happy Life.

I got to see them in concert. This song is just as beautiful live.

Fantastic choice to bring in the new decade! KANSAS is an American (prog) rock institution! Perhaps the best band to EVER come out of the United States (Steely Dan is a strong contender too)! Musicality and emotion bar none!

Kansas is awesome....Really enjoyed this review / reaction. Please take the time to review Carry On Wayward Son. HAPPY NEW YEAR :)

Gentlemen: I am an OLD guy from the 70's. Lifeli=ong musician, and I have played on numerous major television shows, and I have produced sessions with the major players from my era. I want to thank you for doing this, and for showing some appreciation for this music. Please remember that this stuff was done way before "virtual instruments," way before Melodyne and Autotune, and way before quantizing. There are some things I find myself screaming at the monitors that I think you need to know about many of these cuts that I believe would make you appreciate this music even more! I will post comments when I see these. Again, THANK YOU.

That is one of the only albums I can listen to all of the songs on. Everything on it is gold. *edit* Not to seem like a broken record, but 'Closet Chronicles' is one my fav Kansas songs. Another is 'Spider/Portrait'. Those two go together like Bostons 'Foreplay/Longtime'.

@gregscupholm254 4 года назад

Point of Know Return (yes, the misspelling is intentionally part of the title) is an essential classic. A nice jam. Keep up the good work, guys. I look forward to your hopefully reviewing some ELO in the near future. Their sound is absolutely immaculate, and just downright fun to listen to. You will be impressed, I promise you.

@unklscrufy 4 года назад

Happy New Year to you two. Where does the time go? I remember 2019 like it was yesterday. Anyway, kudos to Alex for at least trying to reference Blind Lemon Jefferson (you were close...is he related to Blind Lemon Johnson?) And welcome to Kansas. You guys have some exploring to do if this is only the second Kansas song you've ever heard.

@joshhencik1849 4 года назад

I really do enjoy your channel out of nearly all reaction videos. You have real musical talent and ability to critique and analyze songs that I have been listening to for decades and still point out things I have missed.

@murraypft 4 года назад

Point of No Return. They have MANY good non-famous songs that few have heard.

@jeffcoat1959 4 года назад

"Closet Chronicles" - best cut from Point of Know Return, IMO.

So great to see guys your age enjoying and appreciating music from my generation. I've played music (and continue to play) for the past 43 years and won't stop until they pry my guitar from my cold dead hands!

Song for America Magnum Opus Mysteries and Mayhem/The Pinnacle Portrait (He Knew) Apercu/Mother Nature Suite The Wall Kansas is a unique (and IMO perfect) blend of British prog and American rock and roll. Its original lineup were fantastic musicians, and they were also top-notch for singing and songwriting.

@PowderedToastMan420 4 года назад

Great way to start the new year guys. I'd love to see you guys react to one of my favourite bands out of Sacramento California; CAKE. Their cover of War Pigs is one of my favorites.

@brettpawlowski6720 4 года назад

@dwc1964 4 года назад

Of course the two songs everyone who's heard them has heard: The Distance and Short Skirt, Long Jacket - both great. And CAKE are one of my exhibits in evidence for my assertion that horns make everything better.

@charliemac64 4 года назад

I was just thinking to myself a few minutes ago, while out on the back porch smoking a bowl, "Those dudes should do some Kansas." Deeper cuts, gentlemen. Deeper cuts. :) The hits are great, but their deeper cuts are awesome, as well. I saw these guys on their last tour with the primary lineup. Helluva laser show. When I was in the Navy, a form of Kansas played on my ship in the middle of the Indian Ocean. I have always loved this band.

@gunnerysgthartman9263 4 года назад

Love for y'all to try out "Dreaming" by Blondie. Awesome song, great band with so many hits and nobody ever reacts/ reviews them.

Go deep with Kansas - Magnum Opus - it’s a journey

@shilohauraable 3 года назад

Born & raised in Kansas. Before they were famous, they were the premiere band who played for our proms, formals & college dances! So I heard them & met them many times for free! When the record label attended a nightclub to hear them, they used their last dollar to buy beer 🍻 for all! All the drunks were cheering & dancing when the record reps showed up! 😂 The rest is history. One of the main singers now sings in the Jay Sekulow Band with the lead Singers from Christian rock band, Petra, & one other band member from the 80s. Great music 🎶!

9.5 One of the things I really dig about your channel is revising these great Classic songs. I remember first hearing this album at my buddy’s house when I was a kid. Later I would hear it on crappy radios for years. Today, I threw on the headphones and wow! So great! Thanks dudes!

@johnnelson3869 4 года назад

Kansas, and specifically this album introduced me to prog. Kerry Livgren was playing this riff as an exercise and Steve Walsh heard it. The result is a simple and timeless classic. There is a DVD titled Miracles Out of Nowhere. It Chronicles the history of the band from obscurity to arena headliners.
