I think there was a thread like this before but my list has changed since then:

Geodesic Dome
Miracles Out Of Nowhere (Preferably the modern live versions with Swalsh's black metal vocals \m/)
Taking In The View
Belexes
Andi
On The Other Side
It Takes A Woman's Love (To Mega Man)
I Can Fly (another great example of Swalsh's black metal stylings)
Lonely Wind
Wheels

1. Carry On Wayward Son (bite me )
2. Icarus
3. Magnum Opus
4. The Wall
5. Portrait (He Knew)
6. Paradox
7. Lightning's Hand
8. Song For America

Can't go further because I can't remember any of the songs. Turns out I only have 4 albums. Hmm, gotta revisit this artist...

Belexes
Song for America
All the World
Questions of my Childhood
Cheyenne Anthem 
Closet Chronicles
Hopelessly Human 
Nobody’s Home
Portrait (He Knew)
Reason to Be

Most uniquely Kansas: The Pilgrimage

Sentimental favorite: Icarus II
