"Kansas" THE Rock band!
If you are a lover of Rock bands, this is the greatest of them all IMHO. "Kansas", the full concert celebrating their thirty-fifth anniversary at the University of Kansas at Topeka, Kansas, their hometown and where they went to music school. They are backed up by the university's full orchestra. "Kansas" consist of drums, keyboard, guitar, bass guitar, violin, and vocals. All are top, and I do mean top musicians, not guitar strummers and snare drum tappers. The second link is "Kansas" playing a concert in Atlanta, Georgia without the back-up. Both are the full concerts and equally great.
Years ago they went on tour of Britain, playing the same concert as "The Who" as the opening act and Brian Mays of "The Who" said "We gotta follow after these guys?" A hell of a compliment from a great musician of a great band about a great band.

Re: "Kansas" THE Rock band!
A small correction needed here before Rock history gets distorted. The Who never had Brian May as a member. May was in Queen.

Trevor, maybe better to say he was with, rather than in Queen.
People could get the wrong impressions!
By all accounts he is still doing tours with Queen as it is now.
