The lead singer Steve Walsh is from my home town of St. Joseph, Mo. Met him at a local music store when he was with White Clover before they changed their name to Kansas.
Robby Steinhardt's Violin Talent was showcased well in this song! Sadly He passed from this World to the next in July of 21 here in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. I was Fortunate to have met him at a local ice-cream shop on numerous occasions! He was a FUN GUY to converse with, and we shared a few laughs! LU-LU is correct!! Robby Kindly corrected me when I used the term "Fiddle", and He stated it was a "VIOLIN!"😅 My Bad! Robby was a Good Soul and is missed Greatly by those who knew and Loved Him! RIP Robby and Thanks for the Melodic Memories.🙏🎤🎻❤
They were searching, they found and told what they found in their album "Vinyl Confessions" with the song "Crossfire" th-cam.com/video/TlN1BJD_cak/w-d-xo.html
Carry On Wayward Son is one of the few if not only Kansas song that doesn’t have a violin part. The main lead singer, Steve Walsh, didn’t wear tuxes in concert. 🙂 In fact Steve kept in great shape and usually only wore a pair of athletic shorts, and back in the 1970’s - 1980’s they were the smaller, tighter shorts. 🙂 He usually never wore a shirt. Along with playing the organ/electric piano, bongos, and singing, he still found time to do head/hand stands on top of his piano. 😂 TRUE STORY!
This song was originally written as a guitar exercise by Kerry Livgren the blonde haired gentleman. His wife prodded him to add lyrics and it turned out to be there biggest hit. Try Lonely Wind from their first album for another soft song. Love your reactions guys!!!!
You all need to hear the live version of DITW from the VINYL CONFESSIONS tour 1982 !! Robby does an incredible decrescendo on the Violin.Utterly amazing!!
I'm in the middle of the reaction and it's delightful as always. Yeah Robbie played violin or fiddle depending because a lot of their stuff really had more of a classical feel to it where you would say it's more violin but he was playing that and most of their stuff. They had a lot of really big hits, but one that I think you guys would really love is called Point of No Return from their iconic album called, Point of Know Return. And it is magnificent. It is a work of art and yeah there's some incredible violin Parts in that. It's such an emotional story and you can interpret it in different ways which is the beauty of really really good songwriting like that, but for me they were using old myths and allegories to talk about real struggles in the modern era at that young age in the 70s, and confronting your fears and your demons yet wanting adventure and trying to find something interesting out of life but your family misses you and they're worried about you and all that sort of thing. It's just a really powerful and emotional way to talk about it using music.
"Kansas" deep cuts that you probably never heard, but are fantastic: "Miracles Out of Nowhere", "Icarus - Borne On Wings of Steel", and "Lamplight Symphony". All showcase great musicianship, and have wonderful lyrics.
Back in the day when this was hot for some reason Kansas NEVER played in Nebraska. I lived there so a buddy and I had to go to Red Rocks, CO (God's Cathedral). Very well worth the trip and a nice ride on a couple of Harleys with our girls. 600 miles round trip with roughly $1.00 gas I've seen them since then with the new band members in Reno (former Harrah's outdoor venue) Still killin' it. I still have this LP./Album. Carry on Wayward Sun. Point of Know Return. "All your money won't another minute buy".
This was a song that the guitar player long blonde hair Kerry livgren this was just a guitar exercise for warming up,and his wife who is folding laundry suggested he make a song out of that and out of that became dust in the wind
Ecclesiastes, the first two chapters. Only two years after they released "Wayward son" they found the destination that these two songs describe the search for. Their album "Vinyl Confessions" the song "Crossfire" th-cam.com/video/TlN1BJD_cak/w-d-xo.html
Probably, the very best song I have ever heard is ," Time" by the Alan Parsons Project. I swear you will never, ever hear such a heart felt song that tells a story.
Yeah... Boyd Tinsley from Dave Matthews Band plays what's more accustomed to a 'fiddle.' He saws away at it, Robby is a more classically influenced 'violin.' If that makes sense...
6:00 - Yeah. The sound is cutting out, a lot, too. Lulu got it right, as far as it being a violin, because it's not Country (or Southern Rock). Check out "Fight Fire With Fire", too.
"Miracle Out of Nowhere" is a great KANSAS tune. You will not be disappointed! There are many, many to choose from tho. For another slow one, try "The Wall".
I am reaction to your video, U cannot go wrong with any song by Kansas. I live in Muskogee, Oklahoma and Kansas is having a concert in Tulsa October 29, 2024. I would encourage you to check out Boston " More than a feeling ". Boston is like Kansas everything they do is great. If you like Steve Walsh's voice you'll definitely like brad Dalp of Boston, most iconic song, these 2 groups set the stage for most bands in the 1980s to now
It's good to see you explore Kansas, they are great and have made many songs that are worth listening to. It saddens me though that you went with the most suggested songs, the most obvious ones. Do not stop your journey here, but I'm pretty sure what song is next .... Hold on.
A timeless song (ironically, about mortality and the finite time we have on this earth). I also think of Jim Croce’s “Time in a Bottle” in this regard...
As others have stated, the violin and the fiddle are the same instrument. I think the 'proper' name is determined by the music genre. A fiddle is prominent in blue grass and country. A violin is used in other genres. But i could be wrong.
There are physical differences. The fiddle bridge is not curved as much to make it easier playing two strings at once. The strings are typically metal core instead of gut to give them a different sound. I'm sure there are differences in the body also to give a different sound. A fiddle would sound out of place in an orchestra.
John Elefante es la voz principal en esta canción..Un Excelente Cantante que luego produjo y grabó música cristiana y junto a su hermano Dino formaron la agrupación Mastedon.
From what I've heard the Elefante brothers joined after the band converted to Christianity, all except for one, John was found to replace the one who didn't become Christian and left the group.
Just have to say I enjoy watching the three generations of your family do these video reactions. Check out Point Of No Return by Kansas if you haven't already.

Hello Y'all, if ya liked this, try "Carry On My Wayward Son"! Just say'n... Joan Jett "I Love Rock 'N Roll"! ROCK ON!!! Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 😇🙏👊
Love your reactions to this video and others you have done. When you get a chance, please do a reaction to My Chemical Romance official music video of "The Black Parade". MTV rated this video as the best of the previous century.
I sometimes forget that there are still literally generations of sweet women out there. Love is the weight of a human soul!
The lead singer Steve Walsh is from my home town of St. Joseph, Mo. Met him at a local music store when he was with White Clover before they changed their name to Kansas.
This is truly one of most beautiful songs ever.
Its a trip to me that Lulu just heard this song and will never forget the time she heard it cause its on film. Love yall ladies.
Thank you so much. We appreciate you watching.

Robby was a classically trained violinist.
This is one of those ungodly beautiful songs that make it hard to believe it could have been created by just mere human beings....

Wow
Lol, that’s true. I saw them live long ago & that’s exactly what he was wearing
I got to see Kansas in concert. It was a great show. R.i.p. Robbie Steinhardt, you were an amazing musician. You are missed, but your music lives on.
I swear, artists back then were so much more connected to reality than what we hear today
This song was originally written as a guitar exercise by Kerry Livgren the blonde haired gentleman. His wife prodded him to add lyrics and it turned out to be there biggest hit. Try Lonely Wind from their first album for another soft song. Love your reactions guys!!!!
Thanks
Beautiful song, beautiful harmonies. Great job introducing Lulu to great music for more generations to come.
Thanks for listening
Let Lulu have fun!! It's great!
You all need to hear the live version of DITW from the VINYL CONFESSIONS tour 1982 !! Robby does an incredible decrescendo on the Violin.Utterly amazing!!
Oh man ...such an iconic song! ... back in the days when music was craftmanship, creating art! So solid that it was able to carry tons of emotions.
I'm 63 and my mother wants this song played at her funeral.
They were telling the truth about life and death. What a great song!!
Fantastic song, what a voice!
Y'all are funny as all get out!!
Love it ❤
You gals are a real treat......I'll say that much. I really enjoy your reactions.
Wow, thank you!
Such an uplifting tune.

Kansas was my favorite concert in the seventies.
It's not only a beautiful song but also a powerful message. It you didn't get that, watch/listen to a lyric video.
Kansas "The Wall" is great tune
"Kansas" deep cuts that you probably never heard, but are fantastic: "Miracles Out of Nowhere", "Icarus - Borne On Wings of Steel", and "Lamplight Symphony". All showcase great musicianship, and have wonderful lyrics.

Carry on Wayward Sun.
Point of Know Return.
"All your money won't another minute buy".
Time to give "Her Strut - Bob Seger" a shot. Bob gets you rocking.
The entire song came from Kerry doing some finger picking practice and his wife liked it. I love how music was made back then.
This was a song that the guitar player long blonde hair Kerry livgren this was just a guitar exercise for warming up,and his wife who is folding laundry suggested he make a song out of that and out of that became dust in the wind
🙏🏼❤️✌🏼🎯💯🌹👏🏼👍🏼🔥
Beautiful song great reaction 3G
Thanks 💯
I worked at a high school in Wichita Kansas where a man was teacher of one of the Kansas members.
Love that (Fiddle) violin! 🎻
"and all your money, won't another minute buy!"
I really appreciated seeing and hearing them in concert back in the day.
Thanks for another great reaction you always put a smile on my face
Wow, thank you

song is both powerful & timeless! dbl ♥
My Sister in Law went to high school with several of them in the late 60’s early 70’s
Wow awesome
Yes Robby's violin and vocals were prominent in Kansas' music. The violin kind've set them apart from other bands of that era.
Parabéns pela família.
If you were 20 some time in the 80's, you know this song
Played at Blue's funeral in the movie Old School.
"Miracle Out of Nowhere" is a great KANSAS tune. You will not be disappointed! There are many, many to choose from tho. For another slow one, try "The Wall".
This song is so True❤
This song affects me with the same melancholy as ‘Time in a Bottle’ by Jim Croce.

The song that taught us how to play air-violin.
You guys are awesome
Thank you
The lead singer on this was Steve Walsh
This song reminds me of the music video / song "Everything Dies" by Type O Negative. Maybe you ladies might react to that video.
It's good to see you explore Kansas, they are great and have made many songs that are worth listening to. It saddens me though that you went with the most suggested songs, the most obvious ones. Do not stop your journey here, but I'm pretty sure what song is next .... Hold on.

Scorpions does an *AMAZING* cover of this number...

Point of Know Return, Cheyenne Anthem, Lonely Wind. Kansas is a deep rabbit hole.
SO ITS WORKING GRANDMA YOU AND THE GIRLS KEEP ON PLAYING GOOD OLDIES AND MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WILL WATCH YOUS I TRY TO TELL MY PEEPS ABOUT YOU ALL

This is my funeral song. 🫶
Y'all are too cute
Thanks
You’re my boy Blue 🙌🏻
A fiddle is a violin , it depends on where you are at in this country as to it's name .
The shape and height of the bridge can be a little different, but that's because of the difference in the way it is played.
Seems like the male singers had better hair then woman back then
Point of no return, people of the south wind,play the game tonight,fignht fire with fiire. Just s few more great Kansas dings to try out
