From the Elefante era, it has to be "Incident on a Bridge."  Excellent tune that gets overlooked.

Lots of good choices.

Closet Chronicles, Lamplight Symphony, Journey From Mariabronn, Song For America, The Pinnacle have always been favourites. After that it's really crowded.

Kansas was the perfect blend of prog-rock and arena rock....i preferred their prog ways better than their sellout stuff, although the song "the wall'' is still a killer cut.  My favorite album is Song For America, which i first heard the summer before my senior year in high school, 1975.
 
My top 10:
 
10.Lonely Wind
09.Down The Road (here comes big mike I kinda owe him some beans!)
08.Magnum Opus
07.The Wall
06.Song For America
05.Lamplight Symphony
04,Incomudro-Hymn To The Atman
03.The Pinnacle
02.Icarus-Borne On Wings Of Steel
01.Apercu

To quote Adolf Hitler from Nogbad's signature "Anyone else who thinks Kansas is Prog leave the Room" Tongue

Freedom is slavery.

Ignorance is strength.”
