Kansas (Official Thread)

[METALPRIEST]

Listening now! This is my first non hits album I've got and listened to by the band:

Point of Know Return

Wonderful album!!

Lightning's Hand - Dust In The Wind - Sparks Of The Tempest, one of my favorite group of songs.

Like I said earlier on the thread, I always thought of those as the "Elemental Trilogy", in the spirit of their using orchestral terms (Opus Insert, Magnum Opus).

Great interview HERE with Rich @ Classic Rock Revisited.

He talks about Robbie & Kerry attending the 40th anniversary show, but probably not participating.

I'm a huge Kansas fan and have seen them live 15 times. I had to miss their latest reunion gig in Pittsburgh though as I was in Indianapolis at the MotoGP's. I was bummed.

Masque is probably my favorite although I think Leftoverture is their masterpiece.

^^15 times, you are a hardcore fan for sure Tkitna, sadly I never got the chance to see them live, I don't think they ever ventured to this part of the world.

I agree about Leftoverture being their "Magnum Opus"...

15 Times!!!!! Wow I seen them 5 & thought that was pretty good! I missed them this summer but have seen them 2 times in the past few years. They really put on a good show...although Steve Walsh no longer does his acrobatics on his keyboard
