This is gold! Years later, I walked those very fairgrounds because I was curious. It was all so dilapidated, and it was hard to believe that a Kansas album was recorded there. The stadium was close by, and Depeche Mode was due to perform that night.

This is gold! Years later, I walked those very fairgrounds because I was curious. It was all so dilapidated, and it was hard to believe that a Kansas album was recorded there. The stadium was close by, and Depeche Mode was due to perform that night.
We were there for a few weeks if I remember. A great project.
@@LeMobileRemote The drum sound on Drastic Measures was certainly a new sonic experience for Kansas fans. I caught the DM tour with Heart in 1983.
Absolutely fascinating! I have heard the record - but I never pictured a drumkit in a bathroom! Great video!
That's manager Budd Carr handing Phil's drum throne to Phil's tech at the time at 3:14.
Always nice to work with Budd. a great artist manager. Thanks for watching
Rich's voice hasn't changed at all! Sounds the same today as it did in 1983.
John singing great...Rich does sound the same lol Kerry on Emulator keys
Very cool!
I have great memories of working with them.
