THE BEST OF KANSAS

I'm not sure what to make of this compilation. It's the one I've been listening to for years now, and I've never been inclined to buy more albums, so I guess it's not quite fulfilling its purpose. Notable however is that it was some of my first exposure to progressive music as a young child. As far as I can tell though, the songs on this give an overall adequate impression of what Kansas music is like, though the selection and order of the songs probably could have been better. I heard that you might as well buy Left Overture or Point of No Return if you're going to get anything from the band. Other than that, there's not much for me to say about this complilation, nor even Kansas as a band. They're just... a band... named Kansas.
