Two For The Show (Kansas album)

Two for the Show is a double-live album by American progressive rock band Kansas, released in 1978. The album was reissued in remastered format on CD in 2008.

Recorded over the course of the band's three previous tours in 1977 and 1978, it was Kansas' first live album. It was certified Gold and then Platinum shortly after its release. One single, "Lonely Wind," was released from the album. The single version was edited to under 3 minutes, but nonetheless included a small amount of the piano solo that precedes it on the album. It received a reasonable amount of airplay and rose to #60 on the Pop Charts. In addition, Kirshner Records issued a promotional album of edited selections from the release, entitled "Kansas Mini Concert" on the spine and label, and "Two for the Show Special Limited Edition" on the cover. It features "Lonely Wind," "Dust in the Wind," "Song For America," and "The Wall." The same songs appear on both sides, and the first side is unbanded, meaning there is no indication on the vinyl of where each song begins.
