After a three-year hiatus, Kansas re-formed in 1986, signed with MCA, and released Power. The album bears virtually no resemblance to the old Kansas style; in fact, it's more hard rock and pop than prog rock, and the tough-yet-sleek opener, "Silhouettes in Disguise," immediately announces the change to listeners. "Power" was a minor hit and the simple chorus is effective. "All I Wanted" is pure pop, and this Top 20 hit single features lush keyboards and Steve Walsh's earnest, melodramatic vocals. The instrumental "Musicatto" is the album's primary link to Kansas' prog rock past. "Taking in the View" is a gentle song featuring sweet acoustic guitar and a children's chorus. "Three Pretenders" and "Tomb 19" both rely on strong rock & roll hooks and soaring choruses. "Can't Cry Anymore" is an orchestra-based ballad. Power probably surprised longtime Kansas fans with its musical shift, but the addition of Steve Morse gave the band an interesting -- if ultimately short-lived -- new direction. ~ Bret Adams

This is Kansas' first LP with Steve Morse.

Kansas: Steve Walsh (vocals, keyboards), Steve Morse (guitar, violin), Rich Williams (guitar), Gary Greer (bass) and Phil Ehart (drums).

5 stars Kansas at their rocky best
This is a brilliant album. The guitar work by 'the inspector' is second to none, particularly on Silhouettes in disguise, We're not alone anymore, Three pretenders and Tomb 19. It's a pity the follow up to this comes nowhere near in comparison. If you like Kansas with plenty of guitar this is the album for you!

4 stars Great Sounding KANSAS album
Not an expert on all things Kansas but I for one like this particular album very much. Steve Walsh is in fine voice and Steve Morse is a great addition to the band. There are elements of "classic" Kansas and some nice heavy sounding chord progressions and drum lines. Pretty good stuff from 1986.

SOMEWHERE TO ELSEWHERE is destined to take its place as a landmark in the career of art rock veterans Kansas. Here the Topeka natives reunite where there's "no place like home," to create their first studio album with all-original members in 17 years. Recorded in a home-built studio on guitarist Kerry Livgren's farm, this collection returns the band to the heartland sound and crafted arrangements that made it a household name in the '70s. The WWII-inspired epic "Icarus II" opens with a majestic intro, setting the tone for an heroic tale, while "The Coming Dawn (Thanatopsis)" is ...

Power CD music
CD $7.59  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
The high point of Kansas's long career, 1977's POINT OF KNOW RETURN found the American heartlanders finally striking the perfect balance between complex prog-rock, hard-hitting heavy guitar work, and crafty pop sensibilities. This is perhaps best exemplified by the title cut, a sparkling tune full of jaunty interaction between piano and violin that moves unerringly through some tricky musical maneuvers, while remaining engagingly catchy and accessible. The electrifying riffs that fly around in "Lightning's Hand" and "The Spider" show that the knack for tunes like the previous album's classic "Carry On Wayward Son" had not deserted Kansas. At the same time, thoughtful (but not saccharine) ballads such as "Dust in the Wind" and "Hopelessly Human" make it clear that there was more than flash to the band. Nevertheless, there's honestly impressive flash aplenty to be found here in Kansas's finest hour. This is the definitive Kansas ...

Power music CDs
CD $17.09  Audio Samples
TANYA DENNIS "WATERDANCE"(THE SHORT STORY)Its seldom a multi-talented entertainer comes along with credentials as impressive as TANYA DENNIS!Now just back from Berlin and preparing for a 2004 European Tour, Tanya is riding high on the momentum generated by "APARTMENT #9".TANYA, NASHVILLE side women, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist turned recording artist has paid her dues the old fashioned way over a 30 year span of touring with and opening for major Country Artists such as FAITH HILL, Texas Legendary Swing Band ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL, LEANN RIMES, REBA Mc ENTIRE, WADE HAYES, LITTLE TEXAS and multiple Grammy Award Winner JANIE FRICKIE, not to mention several of America's premiere Artist/writers SKIP EWING, DAVE GIBSON,EDDIE RAVEN and Grand Ole Opry Legend WHISPERING BILL ANDERSON. TANYA'S talent for playing fiddle, mandolin and rhythm guitar and of course adding her impeccable voice to support these world class artists all over the United States forged her many gifts into one mean entertainment machine. In addition, she has written and produced records and commercials for other artists and prominent corporations such as Mazda, Safeway Foods, and most recently, PAX Television Network. Many song writers have utilized Tanya's voice and fiddling to promote their songs in the viciously competitive song writing market in Nashville. With the release of her first CD "WATERDANCE" Tanya was voted the "1999 European Female Rising Star" Award by radio programmers and fans worldwide as tabulated by WWW.Onlinecountry.com and presented with the award in Nashville in October 1999. Tanya wrote or co-wrote all but one song on this CD. She also co-produced the project.In February 2000 "WATERDANCE" was also nominated for "Country CD Of The Year" and "Song of the Year" for both "Suspect Angel" and "The Bad Things You Do" by the online music magazine Just Plain Folks at WWW.Justplainfolks.COM .

At the time of ANOTHER DAY ON EARTH's release in 2005, it had been 28 years since ambient-music godfather Brian Eno had released an album of vocal-based songs (not counting a 1990 duo record with John Cale). Eno's '70s "pop" albums were part of a different age and represented a different Eno, one who'd laid the groundwork for glam with Roxy Music and was, for all his eccentricities, very much a rock artist. Almost three decades down the line, though, with a career's worth of instrumental, frequently beatless electronic music behind him, Eno turned out a "song" album of a very different kind. ANOTHER ...
Time Is Now
Back In Spades Time Is Now CD  (2003) Import

Power music CDs
CD $17.45
TIME IS NOW features eight tracks from Detroit rockers, with Stephen Palmer and Jackson Smith. One would tend to assume that coming from rock & roll royalty like Jackson Smith means that a career in music is golden. Smith, who's the first-born child of MC5's Fred "Sonic" Smith and punk priestess Patti Smith, isn't particularly looking to be crowned. Back in Spades isn't his band. Back in Spades is four friends who want to touch, feel, and hear -- not to mention swallow -- the blood, sweat, and tears of rock & roll. Guitarist/vocalist Stephen Palmer, bassist Anthony Rochon, and drummer Joe Leone complement Smith's impressive blues-inspired guitar work as does he to their tight musicianship on their debut EP, The Time Is Now. Smith and his ...
