Mysteries and Mayhem

October 6th, 2007

So I finally got “Masque” by Kansas.  I say “finally” because it is the album which contains one of my favorite (it’s tied with Magnum Opus) Kansas songs.  The first Awesome Review I did was about it.  I previously had it from a best of album.  I now have the album it came from in the first place, and what hadn’t really sunk in was that this album was a concept album!  The Pinnacle is the end of a concept album!!!  AAANND  The song before it was originally going to be a part of the pinnacle (they cut it into two pieces so that it wouldn’t be a 14 minute long song.  I really don’t know why) and therefore has many elements of the pinnacle in it, and also elaborates on the story of the pinnacle.  It’s like if I had only seen the last 3/4ths of my favorite movie and now I’m seeing the beginning.
