A Tribute to KANSAS COLLABORATION - Portrait (He knew)

Kansas / Portrait (He Knew) - a virtual collaboration of the song taken from the 1977 Point of Know Return album. Kerry Livgren of Kansas was so fascinated with Albert Einstein that he wrote this song about him. "You know, that was one of my personal goals in songwriting - was to make people use their brain cells." - Kerry Livgren

He was in search of an answer
The nature of what we are
He was trying to do it a new way
He was bright as a star
But nobody understood him
His numbers are not the way (lyrics from Portrait)
