Not sure if this is in the best, but You Tube picked it for me. I was listening to Buddy Guy and The Brothers. Went to get high and this is on when I get back. They need to tinker with a little bit.

That's insane. I think I only ever heard the Dollhouse album.
Hey, amigo, thanks for listening !

Roger 'Chappy' Chapman's voice turned a lot of people off. I could hardly get anyone to give 'Fearless' a chance. 40 some years later, it's still an epic achievement to me. I've never tired of it.

This is future King Crimson and Asia vocalist John Wetton laying down some leads @ 1:35 while Chappy goes into uncharted territory with the harmonies. Just slays me to this day.

I was thinking that was the craziest vocals since...fifty fifty by Zappa.
Interesting Band. Defiantly progressive. They remind me of early Genesis.

Talk about miss matched shows. When I was stationed in Norfolk I saw Blue Oyster Cult with Kansas. Both played good shows, but just not a common pairing.
I think I saw a show on that tour. I never missed a BOC gig I could get to. Partied with Albert and some roadies after a gig at the Spectrum.

The worst paired show I ever attended had Earth Wind and Fire opening for Uriah Heep. The EWF fans brought whistles and assorted percussion items, and kept it going long after EWF exited, and into the Heeps set. After two songs, the Heep fans turned on the EWF fans that refused to quit. Hard to blame them.
