soaring strings work well here
31 Mar 2005
Format:Audio CD
Why re-record songs that cannot be improved upon? They're not improved just dressed up a little. Of the four songs here that are new to Kansas discography, only Eleanor Rigby really stands out. Walsh's 3 new(?) songs are ballads that don't really feature either the band or the orchestra. Icarus, Lamplight Symphony or Pinnacle would have been great given the orchestral treatment.
Cheyenne and Dust probably work best but elsewhere the orchestra isn't allowed to hold its own with the band. If you like classic Kansas, appreciate how well the band is playing now and are not immediately turned off by the sound of an orchestra, then this cd works really well

Have to say, I have every Kansas album, and this one really takes a different approach to the band. I have read bad reviews , but dont listen to them. All I can say is wow. I made 3 copies - - one for work , one for home and one for the ol' Tahoe. Great 4X4 music! (call me crazy!)
Have fun... buy it. Worth the bucks.

It Just Ain't Kansas Without Kerry Livgren
25 Mar 2000
Format:Audio CD
When you listen to everything that Kansas has does since the mid-eighties without Kerry Livgren, it is obvious that Livgren was the song writing genius that made Kansas great (if you don't believe me, go on over to the Amazon.com section on Kerry Livgren and order his latest solo release Prime Mover II). The well orchestrated arrangements of Kerry Livgren's songs (what I define as the "Kansas sound") have been absent in Kansas music for some time. Compare the old songs that Livgren wrote on this CD with the new Steve Walsh songs. Not that Steve's songs are bad, but they lack the intricate arrangements that made Kerry Livgren's compositions so outstanding and gave Kansas that "Kansas sound" Kansas never would have gotten anywhere in the seventies without Livgren's song writing. Anything they do without Livgren just ain't Kansas.
