    Kansas was one of the best progressive rock bands of the 70s, and they still tour and put out albums to this day. That red haired guy was the violinist. You should continue your journey with them. I have a feeling they will be right up there with Yes on your list.

    One of their most poignant and beautiful songs, both lyrically and musically. The band's great teamwork on display, keyboard pyrotechnics from Kerry Livgren and Steve Walsh, bassist Dave Hope spectacular(the Leftoverture album features his best work), great violin from Robby Steinhardt. Steinhardt and Walsh excellent on vocals per usual. That outro still gets me, despite having heard it hundreds of times, 47 years later
    Our hosts mentioned Gentle Giant, the composer of this song(Kerry Livgren)has cited GG as an influence/an artist he admires
    RIP Robby Steinhardt

    THIS is more like what Kansas is about. They are *THE* finest American progressive rock band ever, much in the vein of Gentle Giant and Yes. You must go back and listen to these lyrics, too....heartbreaking. And then listen to songs like, "Song for America," "Lamplight Symphony," "Magnum Opus," "The Pinnacle, and "Closet Chronicles." Mind blowing.... all of it.

  • @davestang5454
    @davestang5454 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    If you understand the lyrics in context the composition of the music makes more sense. It's about the Cheyenne Nation fighting to survive during the movement into their land by white settlers backed by the U.S. Cavalry in the latter half of the 19th century. The drumbeat represents the battle and the tragic ending as they face defeat. I think the final note sung by Steve Walsh represents the lost cries of the dead to never forget them. Makes me think of the movie "Little Big Man".

    Your reactions are spot-on. I was a transplant from Ohio to Topeka Kansas '73-'74. A new high school my junior senior year Topeka West. I believe prior to my arrival they were called white clover. I watched them play in the amphitheater and School auditorium after their first album. I think their first four albums listened in chronological order you get a sense of their growth. Each album was like listening to a book of music and lyrics. Not to mention the album covers where iconic. Two songs that stick out from that first album 'can I tell you'(important to today's climate) and 'lonely wind'resonated in my mind even as a teenager. A great progressive rock band. The Hammond B3 organ was an awesome instrument in that time. They were masters of their instruments without computers. If you listen you can hear it the early guitar work on dust in the wind is a finger exercise for the guitar according to Kerry livgren. I always enjoy watching anyone hearing for the first time. I see the joy that I still feel today.

    They were blessed with two quality singers
    Robbie Steinhardt (Big Red) was the primary vocalist here
    Steve Walsh came in the piano transition and sang that verse
    The first 4-5 albums had LOTS of Prog elements
    Kudos for doing this one
    A great deep cut!

    This song is actually a story about the plate of the Cheyenne nation. It starts out with nice, peaceful, serene, music, and then in the middle you can tell they’re going to war. And in the end back to peace and serenity … “In the ground our bodies lay. Here we’ll stay” there aren’t many full blooded Cheyenne Indians left on the planet

    Leftoverture AND Point of Know Return are both prog rock masterworks. Kansas was founded and is still driven by the drummer Phil Ehart.

    Chod and Dee, this is from the 1976 Leftoverture album by Kansas. This is the same album that includes Carry On My Wayward Son which you mentioned. Kansas started out as a great American Prog rock band and later on turned more radio friendly. The song is about how the Cheyenne Indian nation was conquered as the nation expanded and moved west in the 1800’s. Another fun reaction guys. ❤

    The Cheyenne were once a great and powerful Indian Nation. They were men of peace who were willing to share their land with the white man. The white man didn't want to share and exterminated them. This song tells the story and the shame of our history.

    Progressive Rock from the Heartland- All members of this band were prodigies -The Pinnacle is one of many master pieces worth taking a deep dive. Mysteries & Mayhem was the intro the Pinnacle but was broken up due to the record label thinking it was too long. Not too many bands attempt their material due to complexity as well as the vocal demands that Steve Walsh executed & pulled off at a level no one can match. His operetta falsetto heard towards the end speaks for itself. They are even better live-saw them twice in concert in the 70's! Walsh in his prime was untouchable!

    Lyrics
    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]
    ((4:55 Battle))
    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

    Kansas is/was such a unique band and most of their music is not radio friendly so it's so amazing how big they got. They truly sound amazing live and in fact they had problems getting bands to tour with them because they were just to good live. In fact Steven Tyler tried to unplug their power because they were just to good.

    Loved your reaction! Reminds me of how I felt when I played their stuff over and over back in the 70's. You have GOT to react to Song for America. That is one helluva great song, their masterpiece.

    I think Phil Ehart,drummer of Kansas, is underrated as they play some complicated music.

    My interpretation: the Cheyenne were being rounded up to be carted off to a reservation. They decided to stay even after the army's cavalry unit refused to negotiate.
    The hardest part for me to accept, musically, was the carnival-like style depiction of the tribe's battle to the death. It just didn't fit my mind-set. That is, until I realized that this was the tribe's solution -- to fight and die joyfully.
    It meant their bodies and souls would forever be connected to this land that the government so badly wanted to move them from. It was ultimately the Cheyenne tribe's victory.

    It is the last words of someone realizing that his people and way of life is being destroyed, and there is nothing they can do.
    It's real sad.
    Listen to song for America.
    It's a beautiful song about genocide.
