JOHN ELEFANTE ... Two Thumbs up

You may not know this about me but I love Elefantes two Kansas albums, however, Vinyl Confessions is far and away the best of the two and will be the baseline I use to evaluate this. I too looked at this when it came out but the 30 second sound bytes on Amazon didnt help me pull the purchase trigger. Right out of the gate I get that version of Kansas memory flooding back to me and all is well, very well in fact! Great opening track, really great opening track... hmmmm... Second track only helps it better. Third track keeps the momentum, I like, wanted more of that Rich WIlliams-esque geetar in it but I liked this one too! Love the acoustic work as well... It no Vinyl Confessions, but this is going back in the wish list for future pruchase...
