Kansas Review
April 1, 2021
My most played album #201. Kansas - 1st self titled 1974. Such a familiar story music genius practices in the garage for years, puts the most amazing music ever made on their first album but nobody knows them so they don’t listen, years later these geniuses release a song that blows everybody away and yet the early stuff, the best stuff goes unnoticed! “Journey from Mariabronn” A masterpiece their best song ever? "Death of Mother Nature Suite" Another song best ever? "Can I Tell You" A song that a band would work on for years and use as the first song ever! "Lonely Wind" that should have been a hit. "Bringing It Back" their only cover, just magic! The album cover depicts abolitionist John Brown in a scene from Tragic Prelude, a mural by Kansas native John Steuart Curry. The original mural is painted on a wall at the Kansas State Capitol in Topeka.

60년대 말에 발흥해, 70년대를 주름잡은 Progressive Rock의 헤게모니는 철저하게 영국 출신 밴드들이 틀어쥐고 있었다고 해도 과언은 아닐 것이다. Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, Jethro Tull, King Crimosn 등 당대 최고의 밴드들을 다수 보유했던 영국은 명실상부한 프로그레시브록의 패권국이었다. 당시 이탈리... Read More
