Album Review

Epic/Legacy's double-disc set The Ultimate Kansas pretty much fulfills the promise of its title. Although it doesn't delve into the group's latter-day recordings for MCA and other labels, that's not a problem because most listeners — whether they're fairweather or dedicated fans — will want to concentrate on the group's peak in the '70s, which is precisely what this does. Over the course of 26 tracks, all the hits and album-oriented radio staples are featured, usually in their full-length album versions, plus a number of fan favorites and key album tracks that help draw a full picture of what the group did. The remastered, expanded single-disc of The Best of Kansas remains the best bet for the casual fan, since it has all the big hits on one disc, but anybody seeking to dig deeper than the hits and radio favorites — without actually hearing the original albums — should turn here, since its selection and sound is better than the three-disc box.

Near Perfection

Being a young rocker, all you seem to hear today is pop and rap. This album was the first time I actually listened to Kansas, and I regret not having done so much, much earlier. Kansas is a great prog rock band, and the price is extremely low for 26 songs. BUY NOW!!

Great Deal!

Ever since I stumbled upon "Carry on Wayward Son," Kansas has been my favorite band. Honestly, at first, their other songs didn't appeal to me. But after finding this album, 26 songs for 10 dollars, I decided that it was easily worth it. If not for the cheap album, I would have gotten four songs: Carry on Wayward Son, Dust in the Wind, Point of Know Return, and Play the Game Tonight. Those four are still the best of the album, but all of the other songs are great as well. (except one or two) This album is definitely worth getting!

Fusing the complexity of British prog rock with an American heartland sound representative of their name, Kansas were among the most popular bands of the late '70s; though typically dismissed by critics, many of the group's hits remain staples of AOR radio play lists to this day.
