Let's see if I can remember the titles,
1. The Pinnacle (maybe the best violin solo of Robbie)
2. Incomudro - Hymn for the Atman (great synthsolo's and even a drumsolo)
3. Song for America
4. Magnum Opus
5. Lamplight Symphony
6. How My Soul Cries Out For You (greatest metal song they did, again a drumsolo)
7. Child of Innocens (another heavy metal track)
8. Black Fathom 4
9. Musicatto (great instrumental)
10. Play the Game Tonight (should have been a huge hit)

I have to mention one song that hasn't made a single list in this thread; Lightning's Hand

Being that this is a prog site, I get it, but I'm more of a prog/hard rock/metal guy, and this song covers all the bases for me; Great guitar riff and licks, heavy, and fast paced; I love all the other stuff mentioned here too, but this has always been my favorite Kansas song.

One of my most favourite Kansas pieces, which I would even put on par with the marvellous Cheyenne Anthem (why the heck the Cheyenne Anthem is so underrated in this topic?), and I am kind of shocked that apparently only one inputter mentioned this piece so far, but this only proves how very special my musical taste is, would be... Nobody's Home. Yep, Nobody's Home. It's not only one of Kansas' best, it's one of the best pieces of all progressive rock works. Hough.

I'm surprised that not one person had Belexes on their list.
