Im listening to a bunch of old songs and I just realized that a band I´ve really mised is Kansas. Damn they´re so good!!! They´ve written a couple of the most beautyful songs I know, actually a couple of THE most beautyful, like Cheyenne Anthem, Carry on Wayward Son, Dust In The Wind and Hold On...These songs are 30 years old now and I love em as much now as I did way back in life.

I don´t always agree with their christian lyrics but damn...the music, the music is so beautyful that I almost get an "Cosmic Orgasm" as a friend of mine call it ;-) And Steve Walsh is such a singer.

Now I just gotta dig up all my old vinyls with Steve Walsh and Kerry Livgren too :-)
I remember how confused I was as a teenager when Kerry Livgren did a solo album and DIO sang on it cuz DIO is suposed to be evil and kansas is a christian band hehe.

OHHH and so good news for the summer, Heaven and Hell will play at Sweden Rock Festival. So what the f*** is Heaven and Hell?? Well it´s the Black Sabbath Line up that featured Ronnie James Dio on vocals and they call them seves H and H instead of Sabbath for some reason but I cant wait to hear songs like Die Young again...

Cheers!

Wow...Kansas. I haven't listened to them in a long time. Now I'll have to dig out some of my old cassette tapes. You've got me wanting to drag out all of my old rock... Foreigner, Boston, Alan Parsons...and my personal favorite...Journey.

Cheyenne Anthem, I love the female choir voice arangement and the Melodic guitars in that song! One of my Favorites from Kansas, Man thier early stuff rules! I still get chills listening to,
Opus Insert, or the Wall from
Leftoverture.
