The music was nothing whatsoever in the vein of Kansas or any other Livgren related musics since, though the cd found itself getting a lot of positive press. Proto-Kaw resurfaced a year ago as an archival re-release of some of the bands music was compiled for a release. Though the hardcore fans of the band enjoyed that release, it seemed evident that Kansas would be finding it difficult to recapture the magic of the late seventies, despite Livgren's hand penning many of the songs. Livgren did find himself associated with Kansas in a support role, particularly on the bands last studio effort called Somewhere to Elsewhere. Later Livgren would leave Kansas and persue a carreer of musical ministry doing some solo albums as well as founding the band A.D. What a whirlwind Kerry Livgren's musical world has seen, starting out in this obscure band, which eventually led him going to the band Kansas, where he and his bandmates found huge success by providing the first significant voice for American progressive rock.
