Music Babble

Leftoverture is their best known album and it's absolutely awful aside from "Carry On Wayward Son." Back when I bought the CD in high school (which I'd sold a few years later for like $2) I also liked the second and third songs, but not anymore. The prog epics on it are terrible and "Questions Of My Childhood" and "Cheyenne Anthem" are two of the worst songs I've ever heard.

The closest they got to a good album--and they seriously don't have one, so they're the worst of the prog discographies I've ventured through by far (Jethro Tull were great for three or four years, ELP and Van Der Graaf Generator managed at least one decent album apiece) was either the debut or Drastic Measures, the faceless AOR album from 1983 that that article trashed. Honestly, if you don't mind that you're hearing a bastardized version of the original band (and who here would?) it's got a couple of decent songs!! And even those albums aren't that special.

The worst is Audio Visions, the Kansas equivalent of Jethro Tull's Rock Island--I can't remember a note of the damn thing once it's over!

It's hilarious that there's a link to KISS lip syncing in there. Who cares!!!
