''In the Spirit of Things'' is the 11th studio Album , and 13th overall, by American Rock band Kansas , released in 1988 (see 1988 In Music ). It is a very loosely organized Concept Album telling the story of a Flood hitting the real Kansas town of Neosho Falls in the early 1950s. The album is often cited by lead vocalist, keyboardist, and songwriter Steve Walsh as his favorite Kansas album. Its odd mixture of hard rock, progressive rock, and '80s pop ballads (forced on the band by MCA Records, which selected outside songwriters in an attempt to generate hit singles) failed to catch on with a mass audience but it remains a cult favorite among Kansas fans.
