Lost as the progressive rock band they were during the 70s, Kansas would publish their tenth album in 1986 with the title "Power", and in which Kerry Livgren, Dave Hope and Robby Steinhardt no longer participated, replaced by Steve Morse and Billy Greer, plus Steve Walsh would return as lead vocalist after the band's experiment with vocalist John Elefante and the album "Drastic Measures" three years earlier.
The band had been inactive for two long years, since they released the aforementioned "Drastic Measures", so many fans were eagerly awaiting a return to Kansas' progressive past, however, "Power" turned out to be a great AOR album. which had lost its unmistakable stamp of intensity, such as the violin.
In any case "Power" turned out to be a meritorious AOR and melodic rock album in which powerful songs such as "Silhouettes In Disguise", "Power", or "Tomb 19" stood out, as well as commercial middle times; "Can´t Cry Anymore" and "All I Wanted" and forays into the progressive like the instrumental "Musicatto"
