Pre-Kansas (A.K.A. "Kansas II")' "Proto-Kaw"

Has anyone else bought/heard this one? If so, thoughts? Recently released from Cuneiform Records (small avant/prog rock label in MD). Silly Ayn Tolkien lyrics aside, I am quietly impressed that in 1971, what-would-become-Kansas sounded basically like Van Der Graaf Generator groped by Crimson Mark I.

Points deducted from Kansas for rippiing off Journey's "I'm Gonna Leave You" for "Carry On". Also, where can I get a copy of Kerry Livgren's I-found-Jesus memoirs? I remember reading some excerpts in 'Creem'ages ago, it was hilarious.

From what I hear, the band (WITH Livgren) has reformed and made a new album.
