Great Albums at a Great Price!!
The first time I heard of Kansas I was 13 and the song was Dust in the Wind and I thought it was lame. The only other song I heard at that time was Carry on Wayward Son. (And are the only songs that any rock radio station plays in this day and age) But I was a teenager and was looking for more rebellious music ( I am still a die hard fan of classic Heavy Metal to this day ^^/). However, Kansas is a very underrated rock and roll band. I say this because after learning to play guitar, maturing, and rediscovering the band; as well as having heard other songs that never got any airplay...I was BLOWN AWAY!! I had no idea that they were a progressive rock group! Well, now I wanted to own all of their albums because this was music at its' best!! I mean violin in rock music...that's just plain BAD ASS!!! But (here it comes...wait for it) I could not find them in any physical record store. Most record store employees had never even heard of the band at all and all they could tell me was if they had any of their cd's they would be found under the bands place holder or you can find them in their online store! UNACCEPTABLE!! All I could find was greatest hits CD's! So, armed with my determination, I turned to the internet and...voila...this box set of the bands original remastered CD's pops up!! Not only do you get 9 of Kansas' classic albums (many with bonus tracks), you also get an expanded 2 CD version of their live album Two for the Show! The studio CD's range from 1974's Kansas through the classic Leftoverture and Point of Know Return and the aforementioned live album Two for the Show, but you also get their 80's offerings as well; Monolith and Audio-Visual, all with Steve Walsh on Vocals. The last two CD's that round out this box set are Vinyl Confessions and Drastic Measures featuring John Elefante on vocals. Now many of you might think that with a change in vocalists came a change in sound. Not true...Elefante was a perfect fit and the band didn't miss a beat! Sure, there were few if any longer (over 6 minute) songs but the quality of the bands music did not falter! The sound on these remastered CD's is excellent!! Not over compressed with too much bass response, but just perfect...never losing any of the high or low ends! This is the perfect way to own all of Kansas' albums in one purchase!! And the $60.00 price for 10 albums (total of 11 CD's) equals $6.00 per cd!! I have to say this is a much better price than the $9.99 and up for Greatest Hits CD's as well as any of the original albums if you can find them in a store! If you are tired of the unoriginal, studio created, auto-tuned, no heart or soul pate they try to pass off as music today or If you are a just a fan of classic rock (REAL music played by REAL musicians) then look no further...you will not be disappointed! I urge all of you who read this review to purchase this, put these CD's on, and hear how great music should sound!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Box of gold
I got this to fill gaps in my Kansas cd collection. It is nice to have the run of their classic albums in mini lp sleeves and an attractive, compact box that looks nice on the shelf. Prices vary wildly, so it pays to shop around.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Kansas complete
All of the studio albums plus two for the show live. Kansas has a sound uniquely their own. It is 70s Rock and it's deeply textured sounds from violin, guitar and keyboards done differently than both country crossovers like Charlie Daniels and jazz fusion like Jean luc Ponty. Love the soundVerified purchase: YesCondition: New
