Khymera is comprised of multi-instrumentalist Daniele Liverani, and Kansas frontman Steve Walsh. Utilizing unreleased songs by legendary melodic rock writers like Jim Petrik, David Foster and Neil Schon, Liverani and Walsh construct a very strong album. There is a good mix of hard rock tracks and ballads. Throughout the record, Steve Walsh puts forth his best studio performance in almost 15 years and Liverani creates a rich sound scape of swirling guitars and keyboards which provides the perfect backdrop for Walsh's stellar delivery. On the whole, this is a first-class melodic rock album that is sure to please fans of this genre. Liverani should be praised for his instrumental virtuosity and meticulous production but there is an even greater staring this project, and that is Steve Walsh. He shows a clarity and range on this album he hasn't put forth since the late 1980s.
