I'm a huge fan of Kansas but I'm not a hardcore one while Carry On Wayward Son is their masterpiece.   BTW, I saw Kansas at the old Charlotte Coliseum in NC during my younger days with Heart.

Kansas is one of my top five bands of all time. Seen them in concert over a dozen times and they are great everytime. They had a couple of stinkers in the 80's, but their 70's stuff and 90's stuff is incredible.

They're getting more airplay on Clear Channel these days.  I'm not really a fan.  But I have to admit that "Carry On" is one of the weirdest number one songs (I'm pretty sure it went no. 1).  It seems you don't get any lyrics for about 2 minutes into the song.  The guitar/bass/keys parts are really well built.  

The lead singer could also sing his ass off.  

"Dust in the Wind" is a great melody and remarkably nihilistic.  The critics probably would have loved it if Lou Reed had sung it.  Or Iggy Pop.
