	Styx: Nostalgia
		In 1976, Styx released Crystal Ball, refining their mixture of theatrics and rock on songs like the swinging rocker “Mademoiselle.” The album also led to a successful tour that allowed the group to sharpen up their arena-rocking skills.
		Styx continued their arena-rock success story in 1978 with Pieces of Eight, an album that played up their hard-rocking edge on Top-30 hits like the desperado saga “Renegade” and the city-life drama “Blue Collar Man.” Like The Grand Illusion, Pieces of Eight was a platinum hit.

		By this time however, Styx had grown disenchanted with their record label, and opted to sign on with AandM for their fifth release overall, 1975’s ‘Equinox’ (their former label would issue countless compilations over the years of, culled from tracks off Styx’s early releases).

		In the first years they were closer to progressive rock than ever, from 1972 to 1974 the band released four albums, "Styx", "Styx II", "The Serpent is Rising" and "Man of Miracles", even though they were popular in Chicago, still the band couldn’t reach commercial success.
		1976 was a crucial year for "STYX", John Curulewsky leaves the band and is replaced by Tommy Shaw who became the front man with his California boy image (Even when he was born in Montgomery Alabama) and lighter style, the band finally had the face capable of reaching the female public and massive acceptance.

	StyxCollector.com - Come Sail Away: The Styx Anthology Review by Allan Hirt
		The idea of a Styx box set has been kicking around and rumored (3 to 4 discs of stuff) for at least five years now, if not longer.
		Fast forward over four years later to 2004, where all lawsuits are settled and both sides have made proverbial peace (as much as you can when the split was as, shall we say not friendly, as this one was).
		In the meantime, Styx fans of all types (casual, die-hard, and anything inbetween) should really go grab this one when it is released on May 4th.

	Styx
		But the big advantage is that Styx II is among this band's least pretentious pieces of music - and mind you, I'm speaking of a band that runs a no-concurrents race for the title of "America's Most Bloated Rock Outfit".
		Nevertheless, despite all odds and despite the poor reputation of Styx's early period (which Styx have a serious hand in themselves, pretty much disavowing everything written before 1974), Styx II still remains a pinnacle of sorts for the band and an interesting document of progressive rock's transmutations in the States.
		The guy who reviewed Styx on the Prindle page said that all of their early albums sucked and all of the albums from the mid-Seventies period are great.

		Sometimes, Styx slips into hard rock phrasings (as did Kansas), but in doing so they helped forge a new style of prog that would be adopted by bands like Boston and proved more palatable to American ears.
		I’d recommend this album even if it didn’t harbor a certain “Lady,” and suspect that Styx II is the one to own among the band’s early elpees.
