Two for the Show is a double-live album by American progressive rock band Kansas, released in 1978. Recorded over the course of the band’s three previous tours in 1977 and 1978, it was Kansas’ first live album. One single, Lonely Wind, was released from the album. It received a reasonable amount of airplay and rose to No. 60 on the pop charts.
Kansas instead presented their concert album largely devoid of studio tweaking – though to my ears, some of the audience cheers rise and fall in suspicious places. Still, for all intents and purposes, this is as real as it gets. As for the music, Two for the Show is a solid live document of Kansas, then at the top of their game and still featuring the original lineup with lead vocalist Steve Walsh and co-guitarists Kerry Livgren and Rich Williams (Livgren left the band in the early ’80s and now leads the band Proto-Kaw)
