Equinox for Styx, Leftoverture for Kansas. Two wonderful bands.

I'm not what you'd consider a fan of either band but I do like several songs on their earlier albums. I LOVE most of the first Kansas album.

KANSAS is fairly superior than STYX, although both bands in last years are suffering a clear decline ( mainly  due original line-up  "departures" ) the resume of their trajectories still remains  positive. The fact of some radio success of Styx as for instance "Babe" or "Blue Collar Man " and "Carry on..." and  "Dust in the Wind" from Kansas... none of two are POP bands !!!
