Another Budget Compilation of Classic KANSAS Material

"I was researching Kansas music the other day and found this listing with No track information or anything! So I looked for it at the local store and found a copy. It has ten tracks:



1. Carry on Your Wayward Son

2. What's On My Mind

3. The Wall

4. Dust In The Wind

5. Can I Tell You

6. People of the South Wind

7. It Take's a Woman's Love

(to make a man)

8. Child of Innocence

9. Two Cents Worth

10. On the Other Side



It is (can you believe it!) another version of a former release: "Carry On", from 1992, Sony Special Products. I have no idea if the sound quality has been improved, even though from 1992 to 2005 there should be a significant difference, but... maybe not. It is priced right: Only $8 dollars.



If somone did not own ANY Kansas music, this could be a decent start. Especially for a kid trying to stretch his allowance money."

Another pretty much worthless compilation!

"Has anyone noticed lately that Kansas is totally going mad with every sort of compilation? Maybe they're trying to cash in, but I don't think too many people are going out to purchase these kind of compilations. Why go out and buy this when the albums that these tracks come from are so good. Just go out and buy LEFTOVERTURE, MASQUE, MONILITH, KANSAS, and POINT OF KNOW RETURN (POKR should have gotten at least four tracks because it's the greatest album that they've ever made, but instead they give it one lousy track). Just go out and buy the whole albums that these tracks come from. Believe me they are ultra superb albums and some of these tracks from them are the wrong ones to include. "It Takes A Woman's Love" shouldn't have been included because it's not classic Kansas to me. Just get out to the stores and buy the great albums that these tracks came from and you'll thank me, I promise."
