Check out episode #80...Kansas, Carry on Wayward Son.
Not going to link it here but it's up on youtube.
Absolutely amazing playing and singing. Pre pro tools.

I really like the Limelight one.

They're all pretty good. The one on Failure's Stuck On You is my favorite.

I took a “History of Rock n’ Roll” intercession class in college as a music elective. On the first day of class, the teacher walked in with a portable DVD player. He didn’t say a word, but he hit the play button. The song was “Carry On” by Kansas. He just let the song play. He still didn’t say a word. He didn’t have to. The music did the speaking for him.
I still remember this nearly 20 years later. What a bad arse moment! What a great song!

Really enjoyed the latest one on Rocketman.

Gonna check it out. The main guitar riff got stuck in my head probably quicker than any other has.

I just watched the one on Toto's Rosanna (#9 I think), very cool.

Guitar intro with two hooks
Pre verse hook

Repeat single guitar intro hook

Bridge has two hooks,including solo
Modified verse/bridge
Etc
End of song is a hook

Not my cup of tea, but I admit the vocals were great.
I watched a documentary about Kansas awhile back. They have an interesting history.
I really don't much care for the geography bands: Kansas,
Boston, Chicago, etc.
