    APRIL 28, 2006 2007 Journal of the House FIFTY-NINTH DAY HALL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, TOPEKA, KS, Friday, April 28, 2006, 11:00 a.m. The House met pursuant to adjournment with Speaker Mays in the chair. The roll was called with 123 members present. Reps. Goico and Schwab were excused on excused absence by the Speaker. Present later: Rep. Schwab. Prayer by Chaplain Chamberlain: Almighty Father, Lord of all the earth, you make the sun to shine, the rain to fall and give growth to every living thing. Thank you for your providence and for the countless ways that we are blessed. We celebrate the rain today, O God. It falls from the heavens uncontrolled by humans. With all our intellect and all our accomplishments we cannot direct where it falls or when it falls or if it falls. Only you can do that. Only you give to the earth all that sustains life. There is thunder with the rain today, and hail and lightning. Amidst the bless- ings there is danger. It is that way with us as well, Lord. Often when we are celebrating your gifts there is thunder and hail and lightning. In the midst of getting the job done, there are sparks and opportunities to make a lot of noise. Maybe it just comes with the territory. But please Lord, keep sending the rain, and keep sending your blessings. We need them as we need you, for you are our only God. Blessed be your name now and forever. Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Rep.

  • KANSAS Has Spent Than Four Decades As a Part of the Soundtrack of the Lives of Multiple Generations of Music Lovers
    KANSAS has spent than four decades as a part of the soundtrack of the lives of multiple generations of music lovers. The band’s first public statement appeared on their self-titled album in 1974. "From the beginning, we considered ourselves and our music different and we hope we will always remain so." Little did this legendary rock group realize that back in the early ‘70's, what seemed to be “different," was actually ahead of its time. This "garage band" from Topeka released their debut album in 1974 after being discovered by Wally Gold, who worked for Don Kirshner. The band has produced eight gold albums, three sextuple-Platinum albums (Leftoverture, Point of Know Return, Best of KANSAS), one platinum live album (Two for the Show), and a million-selling gold single, ‘Dust in the Wind.’ KANSAS appeared on the Billboard charts for over 200 weeks throughout the ‘70's and ‘80's and played to sold-out arenas and stadiums throughout North America, Europe and Japan. ‘Carry On Wayward Son’ was the #2 most played track on classic rock radio in 1995 and went to #1 in 1997. In 1998, KANSAS released an orchestral album; "Always Never the Same," recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios in London. They followed with an orchestral tour accompanied by top-caliber symphony orchestras. In 2000 KANSAS went back into the studio with original band member and songwriter Kerry Livgren to produce "Somewhere to Elsewhere," the first album featuring all 6 of the original players in 20 years! The ten new songs were written by Kerry Livgren and recorded in his studio in Topeka, KS.

  • Analyzing KANSAS' “Carry on Wayward Son” (1976)
    Analyzing KANSAS’ “Carry on Wayward Son” (1976) Matthew A. Bardin, BM Eastman School of Music: Theory 481 The goal of this paper is to, after providing a brief historical context, show a show a multi- faceted analysis of the song “Carry on Wayward Son” by KANSAS. Specifically, I will be looking at the lyrics of the song and giving my personal interpretation of their meaning, The formal arrangement of each section of the song, an analysis of the chords and their harmonic function, the melodic content and notable aspects of each formal section, the use of syncopation, and KANSAS’ use of instruments and timbres over the course of their song. It is my goal that looking at this information will allow me to create a generalized statement that evokes the essential characteristics of the track. KANSAS originally formed as a stereotypical ‘garage band’ out of Topeka, KS in the early 1970s. since their debut album in 1974, they have produced eight gold albums, three sextuple- platinum albums (of which Leftoverture (1976) is one), a platinum live album, and two different one million-selling singles. Over more than 40-year tenure of the band there has been several changes in the band’s line up, including a hiatus where the band was broken up in 1984. Currently, Phil Ehart (percussion) and Rich Williams (guitars) are the only two original band members still playing with the group. While the specific group dynamics play an interesting part in KANSAS’ sound and popularity over the years, it is beyond the scope of this paper.

  • Kansas – Miracles out of Nowhere (Documentary)
    Kansas – Miracles Out Of Nowhere (documentary) (79:28+78:00, CD+DVD, Epic/Legacy/Sony Music, 2015) Das vergangene Jahr war für die Musiker von Kansas ein besonderes, schließlich feierte man sozusagen den 40. Geburtstag ihres Debütalbums. Grund genug, sich noch einmal in der Originalbesetzung zusammenzufinden und über die gemeinsame Vergangenheit zu philosophieren. Das natürlich vor dem Hintergrund, das Ergebnis auf einer Doku-DVD zu verewigen (Regie: Charley Randazzo). Und eines sei gleich vorweggenommen: wer jetzt einen Komplettüberblick über das Schaffen von Kansas erwartet und auch etwas über die John Elefante-Phase, Steve Morse, über die Rückkehr von Steve Walsh, das Ersetzen von Robbie Steinhardt durch David Ragsdale oder gar die aktuelle Entwicklung mit dem neuen Sänger Ronnie Platt erfahren möchte, wird enttäuscht, denn darüber wird kein Wort verloren. Lediglich die Namen David Ragsdale und Billy Greer tauchen immerhin in der Danksagung auf. Vielmehr geht es hier um das, was Kerry Livgren, Steve Walsh, Phil Ehart, Rich Williams, Dave Hope und Robby Steinhardt bis zum ’77er Album „Point Of Know Return“ vollbracht haben. Warum der Einblick nicht weitergeht – schließlich gab es auch danach noch Alben in genau der gleichen Besetzung – bleibt unklar. Auf der rund 78-minütigen DVD wird man allerdings bestens unterhalten. Sämtliche Musiker kommen zu Wort, und es ist allein schon optisch überraschend, wie sehr sich die Musiker zum Teil verändert haben. Ich erinnere mich beispielsweise noch sehr deutlich, wie überaus „raumfüllend“ Gitarrist Rich Williams war, als ich ihn zuletzt live gesehen habe. Nichts mehr davon zu erkennen. Neben den Musikern kommen auch noch Manager, Techniker etc. zu Wort, sodass man jetzt nicht erwarten sollte, viel Live-Musik erleben zu können.
