Andy & Alex Good call on this classic song. One thing about Styx is when u get their albums you know what you’re gonna get. Very distinct vocals and funky grooves with distinct guitar 🎸 work. Now....When you play PAINKILLER by Judas Priest, turn your headphones up to get the full effect of those machine gun drums at the beginning You dudes are doing good. Keep it up. ✌🏻 out clowns!

One of my favs. Saw them during their Grand Illusion and Mr Roboto tours.

Styx rose up when hard rock started to become glossy and mainstream. It was a trend of the late 70s, and it was the undoing of many bands, much like today. Still Styx had a talent for ballads, humor, hooks and commercial hard rock. They were hugely popular for a few years, dominating rock/pop radio in the US just before and after around 1980 along with bands like REO Speedwagon and Supertramp.

Come Sail Away is probably one of Styx's biggest hits. I'd do that one next.

I remember how this album blew my mind when it came out and I listened to it over and over again... So did my friends. (and it seems most of Sweden actually) It was like wherever you went you were bound to hear music from Paradise Theater. Happy days :-)

Miss America, Live!!!

Styx songs that MUST be listened to..Come sail away,Fooling yourself,Crystal Ball,Boat on the river and Mr.Roboto

"Renegade" and 'Too Much Time on My Hands" are sung by Styx's Tommy Shaw ... as is "Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man)." Styx also had many hits - that sound way different than Tommy Shaw's songs - with his bandmate Dennis DeYoung, who sang lead on "Lady," "Come Sail Away," and the weirdly fun "Mr. Roboto."

A&A, Styx is a gold mine of great music, with some serious cheese mixed in, That being said, Blue Collar Man, Crystal Ball, Snowblind, Suite Madame Blue, Fooling Yourself (hell, the entire Grand Illusion album for that matter) but most of all, for me, is The Grand Illusion. I was thirteen when it was released and very, very few songs have ever spoken to me like Grand Illusion did. The music is spectacular but the lyrics, wow. For a lost, confused teen, I felt like someone finally heard me.

FYI, guys, the lead vocalist in this song, Tommy Shaw, went on to form Damn Yankees with Ted Nugent and Jack Blades (bassist/vocalist from Night Ranger). They had 2 or 3 hits from their debut album.

The Styx album, The Grand Illusion, provided a few excellent tracks including the title track as well as "Miss America."

Blue Collar Man The Grand Illusion Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man) Crystal Ball Suite Madame Blue All of those are awesome songs. Keep up the great work, guys!

Come Sail Away - Styx - Probably already heard it, but it's a top tier song

Glad to see you guys getting your STYX FYX! The musical diversity of STYX is one of their greatest attributes and the Renegade/Too Much Time on My Hands is a prime example of that. I would recommend "Come Sail Away". Warning NOT, I repeat, NOT to use the "Official Video" version which cuts out the middle section of the song!!! Please listen to the 6 minute version which is the TRUE version of the song. Love the channel and keep the STYX comin'.

I remember Styx mostly in the 70's with the songs from the Grand Illusion album on the radio a lot. My favorite is Come Sail Away, but I also remember Fooling Yourself and The Grand Illusion.

'Suite Madame Blue' would be a great one by Styx for you to check out from their 1975 'Equinox' album. Actually, that entire album is really amazing.

Great vocals on this track. Love the New Wave bent as well. Check out Mr. Roboto for their most experimental song.

Exactly why they should try it. It was out there, In its day.

Other great songs by Styx are, The best of times, Lonely people, Why me, Nothing ever goes as planned, Fooling yourself, and if you like harder Rock, try, Miss America, Half penny two penny, The Queen of spades and Snowblind.

Suite Madame Blue is a classic Styx tune from 1975 EQUINOX album. Light Up and Lorelei are great tracks from the album, too

Haha, TOTAL radio song. They played it constantly, but it was so catchy, I didn’t mind it too much. Alex, I was waiting to see if you’d clap along-it’s hard not to, right? EARLY 80’s realness here, gentlemen.

Yes, 80's production, but very early (with at least five toes hanging on to the 70's). For more STYX, check out their first hit from back in the Wooden Nickel days - 'Lady.' For later hits check out 'Come Sail Away,' Fooling Yourself' - or anything from Grand Illusion album.

Check out the Styx song "Babe". Extremely divisive song amongst the fans, but I always loved that song. It was the very first song I ever fell in love with as a child. In 1979, I was 4 years old and I heard that song and instantly loved it. Some fans love it, but a lot of fans don't like it at all, even though it was a huge #1 song at the time.

Half Penny Two Penny is my favorite from this album -- that song bangs.

Hey guys. First off I graduated from high school in 1978 so Styx was very popular with me. Crystal Ball is one I'd love to see you guys do. Grand Illusion is another. Great work you two. Love to see the music from my era being enjoyed.

Oh, man, there are so many good Styx songs out there for you guys. Blue Collar Man, Come Sail Away, Lady, Lorelei, The Best of Times, Fooling Yourself, Babe, Miss America, The Grand Illusion, and more.

YES...YES...YES!!! Ridin' The Storm Out live (from the 1977 live album "You Get What You Play For") is ABSOLUTE REO Speedwagon listening and the cut that should be played for introducing someone to this band. This is a perfect example from my post above wincing on some of the recent song choices lately and how a wrong song can turn someone off immediately from a band and not give them another chance. If someone is curious about REO Then "Ridin' The Storm Out" is a perfect place to start because like many bands of the 70's and 80's they started out class A, arse kickin' rock n roll band and then went softer than your great grand dad's love unit!! REO is 2 different bands (see night ranger), arse kickin' rock from about 71 (noting the debut of gary richrath and his guitar & song writing skills) through 1980 and then came the other band that started writing love songs for 14 year old girls like "don't let him go" and over the cliff they fell. Buh-BY!! Richrath then tried a solo gig but the record wasn't backed well by the label. Gary also had his demons as many musicians do and it cost him his spot in REO and soon after his solo act tanked and he drank himself to death. Anyhow, REO was once a great rock band so WHOEVER decides what goes into A & A's headphones, the 1977 cut of Ridin' The Storm Out on the "You Get What You Play For" album is the ticket to the REAL REO. Git 'Er Done!!

OH MAN! This reaction is priceless! Like 2 bobblehead dolls!

Miss America and Man in the Wilderness are tops on my list.

You cannot REALLY get into Styx without these songs: 1) Snowblind (Paradise Theater) 2) Suite Madam Blue (Equinox) 3) Crystal Ball (Crystal Ball), the first album with Tommy Shaw 4) Blue Collar Man And, probably the song that launched them into super stardom: Come Sail Away (Grand Illusion)

Styx is SO diverse, partly due to the fact all lineups had 3 lead vocalists/songwriters with great voices. The classic lineup (1976-1983, 1995-1999) had three awesome songwriters. The Top 40 singles (they had 8 Top 10's) would be one catalog, and the album tracks would be a HUGE catalog. Collaborations of 2 or 3 of the songwriters were very cool too. The following recommendations are a mix of the above (lead singers in parentheses) Come Sail Away (Dennis Deyoung) Put Me On (James Young/DDY) Queen of Spades (DDY) Fooling Yourself (Tommy Shaw) Great White Hope (JY) Snowblind (JY/TS) Man In The Wilderness (TS) Castle Walls (DDY) Borrowed Time (DDY) Rockin' The Paradise (DDY) Miss America (JY) Half Penny/Two Penny (JY) Cold War (TS) And, after you pick a couple of the above more "rock" songs, you guys NEED to react to the controversial Mr. Roboto (DDY)!

Styx has sooo many great songs, here’s a few good ones, Miss America, Sweet Madame Blue, Man in the wilderness, Snow blind , Crystal Ball, Blue collar man, Superstar! Happy listening!🙌🏻

Great live band, saw them twice WITH Dennis DeYoung. Talent all around. Crystal Ball, play it!

Tommy Shaw (singing this and lead guitar) was my favorite Styx member. He's just so fun to watch, has a fabulous voice and his guitar riffs are the best. Ahh memories....

I've become a big Styx fan over the past few months.. If you are interested into delving into the real rare progressive rock sound check out their first 4 albums from Wooden Nickel..

kzread.info/dash/bejne/lnWH1dCym7XdnZc.html Now watch this version. Done where we seen them with local musicians. My daughter almost went there but instead liked the program at Baldwin Wallace more.

Fun fact: Back in the last-1960's, my ex-hub and his younger sibs lived in the far far suburbs of Chicago. The two younger girls (Vera and Dawn) wanted to go to the high school dance in Huntley IL, so my ex (Steve) drove them over because he had a license, and said he'd pick them up later. ... Once the dance was almost over, Steve sat outside the high school gym and listened to the band playing while he was waiting, and the song was "Lady". Soon, the girls came out of the dance and ran over to the car. Steve said, "Hi, that band was really good, I listened to them play 'Lady' and they sounded just like the band Styx!" The girls just giggled and said, "Well, that's because they *were* Styx!"

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic with the late , great Eddie Hazel on guitar. Produced by George Clinton , of Parliament / Dr. Funkenstein fame. Really awesome guitarworks !

Styx has many songs to explore. Come Sail Away is probably their most famous one. Other good ones are The Grand Illusion which has deep lyrics, Fooling Yourself, Castle Walls, Crystal Ball, Blue Collar Man and many others.

I think you're wrong about the fun. This is from the Paradise Theater album (1980) and it marked the beginning of a rift between Dennis DeYoung and Tommy Shaw (one of my favorite guitarists). DeYoung was more experimental and kept adding theatrical elements into the music. The other members, most notably Shaw, didn't like it. It eventually led to them ousting DeYoung. They had some great hits in the 70s and 80s. I'd recommend "Come Sail Away" and "Fooling Yourself" off the top of my head. You should also give Damn Yankees a listen. It's a band comprised of Tommy Shaw, Ted Nugent, Jack Blades, and Michael Cartellone.

The riff between band members started after *Cornerstone* was released. Dennis was actually first fired in 1980. But the guys couldn't find a replacement for him at the time, so they asked Dennis to come back. Even during their Wooden Nickel period though, and *Equinox,* they had problems with DeYoung. He was one of the main reasons John Curulewski left the band in 1975...

I bought "They only come out at night" , when I was 12 or 13, specifically for Frankenstein. It was the first album I bought, and it took me awhile to save enough allowance to buy it, but well worth it. Free Ride was a bonus. I'm now 56, and it remains one of my all-time favorites. I love rock instrumentals, like Hocus Pocus by Focus(a little yodeling, but no lyrics, YYZ by Rush, and Outta Space by Billy Preston(more funk than rock), but it STILL rocks.

Castle Walls, Fooling Yourself, Blue Collar Man, Lorelei, Crystal Ball, Come Sail Away...so many great Styx songs.

Grand Illusion is my favorite Styx album...Songs The Grand Illusion, Fooling Yourself, Come Sail Away, Miss America, Castle Walls! All killer...

Styx had three singer/songwriters during their heyday. You've listened to two songs sung by Tommy Shaw. This may be a different tact for the two of you, I suggest you listen to three songs in a row, one from each singer. Suite Madame Blue (Dennis DeYoung circa 1976, Miss America (James Young - 1977) and Blue Collar Man (Tommy Shaw - 1979). Three unique songs by each guy in the band. You won't regret it. :) Oh, and a constant supporting them were twin bothers Chuck and John Panazzo on base and drums/percussion.

Can't believe you have not heard "Come sail away" DO IT! I can't stand most of the eighties either. The 60's was a lot of sanitized pop in the beginning which begun to become experimental with the Beatles. That experimentation along with better instruments and recording led to what I feel is the best rock era from about 67- 79. So much variety, so much experimentation, a wider variety of instrumentation and use of sound, and better craftsmanship of instruments. I sorely miss that era, and it is a joy for me as a 61 year old to see you men such as yourselves appreciating the music.

@JD Chase Most politicians in Washington are how you describe Donald Trump. I support Trump not for his personality, but for his draining the swamp. What is draining the swamp? The politicians in DC come to DC with modest wealth and steal the over taxed people of this country's money. They set their children up in unethical if not illegal situations to make them rich such as Hunter Biden. They continually raise taxes thus destroying job opportunities for the middle class. They have run up the national debt to the point our economy is in danger of collapse. The political system in DC is corrupt and evil. Donald Trump is trying to reverse and restore the system of this country that once made us the richest nation on earth, not the most indebted nation on earth. I suggest you read more widely for a better understanding of the issues than the current left wing talking points being used to brainwash the masses.

The claps remind me of Boston. More Styx songs Half Penny, Two Penny, Fooling Yourself, Great White Hope, Blue Collar Man etc...

Great review, guys. Glad you liked it!

Styx is best in the 70s. My 10 year old self used to fall asleep listening to Grand Illusion (1977) on my 8-track (and those babies play all night, over and over till you stopped them) with big old headphones on. Paradise Theater 1981 was probably the last album I really liked. Earlier Styx is really worth diving into and if you ever get a chance - do put your headphones on and listen to Grand Illusion all the way through some night, promise, you'll love it.

If you see this try a song from Styx called “Crystal Ball” also “Light Up” Regarding 80’s production. Most musics released 80-83 is still pretty good and will hold up thru time. Something happened after that and most albums 84 on suffer from that 80’s ‘sound’. Which is most of the instrumentation does not sound organic. Drums particularly.

exactly - electronic drums started showing up on the scene about 85 or so and then you had computers (Mac, Atari STs with built-in MIDI) driving a lot of stuff. It was the precursor pro-tools and the beginning of the end of feel playing real instruments.
