I can say nothing too much original there: the best Kansas album at all. And the best US prog album of 70-th. Isn't it enough?

""Carry On Wayword Son" is absolutely golden hit from the day of release and still sounds in FM radio stations all around the world till now! And believe me, it's not easy to find other so commercially successfull song without pop elements on it!

Perfect balance between acoustic and symphonic sound, between guitar and keyboards, perfect vocal, bright melodies. Real prgog atmosphere during all the album!

Yes, Kansas is possible one of rear band in seventies which used many elements of european progresive in their music. At the same time there are visible AOR sound . But common balance are so perfect, that you can hear just beautiful and original MUSIC!

Recommended to anyone who is interested in prog rock, or just best possible rock around!
