I'm currently learning the Kansas super hit, Carry on my Wayward Son, and i came across this video that i thought you all would enjoy. So far I can play the intro and the chorus(not bad for one day) and am trying to figure out the solos and the fill parts.
So heres the video 8)

Kansas is one of the most talented bands ever, IMO.

I still remember cruizin and jammin to that tune. One day I would like to learn it to. GREAT SONG, one of my all time favs.
My dad would always talk about retirement, and allude to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. And I say all you've got at the end of the rainbow is death. You're riding the rainbow right now. - Mark Borchardt
Oh the days when bands could play. It's not brain surgery but the rhythms are not the kindergarden rock that so many bands rely on these days.
That was one TIGHT band 8) My favorite Kansas LP was "Song for America" It was before they made it big(I think the first LP) and a lot more of a hard edge than their later, more popular albums.--ken
