Vinyl Confessions

Listening notes

Kansas released Vinyl Confessions in 1982 on the CBS/Sony label. This Japanese pressing carries the catalog number 25AP 2364 and is classified under the genres of Pop Rock, Prog Rock, and Rock.

The album contains ten tracks spread across two sides. Side A opens with "Play The Game Tonight" at 3:24, followed by "Right Away" at 4:03, "Fair Exchange" at 4:56, "Chasing Shadows" at 3:17, and "Diamonds And Pearls" at 4:47. Side B runs from "Face It" at 4:15 through "Windows" at 3:29, "Borderline" at 3:57, and "Play On" at 3:39, closing with "Crossfire" at 6:35.

The track durations point to a relatively concise album by the standards of progressive rock, with most selections falling under five minutes. The lone exception is the closing track "Crossfire," which at 6:35 stands noticeably longer than any other entry on the record and occupies the final position on Side B. The genre designations assigned to this release span Pop Rock, Prog Rock, and Rock, reflecting a breadth that may be of interest to collectors who track how catalog entries are categorized across different pressings and markets.

The CBS/Sony label and the 25AP prefix situate this pressing within a specific tier of Japanese domestic releases from that era, details that collectors of Japanese vinyl frequently note when cataloging editions. Whether this pressing differs in any substantive way from other regional releases of Vinyl Confessions is not established by the available facts and should be verified independently.
