KANSAS - LEFTOVERTURE (180g IMPORT LP)

Kansas Leftoverture On 180g Import Vinyl LP

An abridged version of the career of the rock group Kansas reads rather like an American music fairy tale. In 1973 the band sent out a handful of demo tapes to various recording companies, one of which landed on Don Kirshner's desk in New York. As luck had it, Kirshner was just building up his new label, and after he had satisfied himself that the group was pretty impressive when performing live, he offered them a contract. This was the end of Kansas as a supporting band, but also the beginning of pressure and stress to satisfy their success-hungry benefactor with a chart-topping hit. Their fourth album, with its eternally popular "Carry On Wayward Son," brought the eagerly awaited breakthrough. Leftoverture, named after the snippets (or left-overs) of unused melodies which were then worked on and expanded into the title "Magnum Opus," went platinum four times over and is one of the most successful progressive rock recordings ever. Kansas fans who only have a worn in original LP from the '70s will certainly welcome this opportunity to get a top-quality replacement.
