  • “Come Sail Away,” “Mr. Roboto,” “Babe,” “Too Much Time on My Hands” and More
    1 THE BEST OF STYX FEATURES MAJOR HITS “COME SAIL AWAY,” “MR. ROBOTO,” “BABE,” “TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS” AND MORE With Isaac Hayes singing “Come Sail Away” on TV’s “South Park,” “Mr. Roboto” revived for a car commercial, new albums and constant touring, Styx, one of the most popular bands of the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, is hardly sailing away. The Best Of Styx edition of 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection (A&M/UME), released June 11, 2002, offers 11 of the band’s biggest hits and best-loved tracks spanning its A&M tenure from 1975 to 1990. Produced in association with Styx, each selection has been digitally remastered. Dennis DeYoung (keyboards) and brothers Chuck and John Panozzo (drums and bass, respectively) had played together on Chicago’s South Side since grade school. Adding guitarists John Curulewski and James “JY” Young, Styx debuted in 1972 but its first four albums yielded only the Top 10 “Lady” (though Styx II would eventually go gold). When the band signed to A&M, Tommy Shaw replaced Curulewski after Equinox was recorded and “Lorelei” from the gold Equinox (1975) and “Mademoiselle” from the gold Crystal Ball (1976) went Top 40. 1977’s The Grand Illusion turned Styx into an arena rock superstar. The triple platinum album spun off the Top 10 “Come Sail Away” and Top 40 “Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man).” Styx followed with the triple platinum Pieces Of Eight (1978) and its Top 40 “Blue Collar Man (Long Nights).” 1979’s Cornerstone went double platinum featuring the gold #1 “Babe,” and “Boat On The River.” Styx’s concept album masterpiece, the triple platinum Paradise Theatre (1981), hit with the Top 10s “Too Much Time On My Hands” and “The Best Of Times.” After 1983’s rock opera 2 Kilroy Was Here, despite going platinum and boasting the #3 gold “Mr.

Includes: Babe * The Best of Times * Blue Collar Man (Long Nights) * Come Sail Away * Crystal Ball * Dont Let It End * Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man) * The Grand Illusion * Lady * Light Up * Lorelei * Love at First Sight * Love Is the Ritual * Mademoiselle * Miss America * Mr. Roboto * Queen of Spades * Renegade * Show Me the Way * Sing for the Day * Suite Madame Blue * Superstars * Too Much Time on My Hands. I bought this because my old Styx song books had been stolen many years back. Those old editions are long out of print and very difficult to obtain now.I was excited when I saw this book on here because it had all the greatest hits back in piano form. I first looked at Dont Let It End. They dumbed it down by transposing it from D flat to C, to make it more playable.Then I took a look at Babe. They left it in the same key, but they changed the notes to play closer to an easy piano version of the song.

    ARNY BAILEY: ARNY cut his vocal chops on everything from early country to Led Zeppelin. His seemingly limitless vocal range and multi-instrumentalist abilities have allowed him to play when and where he'd like. While continuing to front About Face and The Rockafellers (and sitting in with whoever needs a BORROWED TIME: hired gun), ARNY used his vocal and guitar skills with The Grand Delusion (Styx Tribute) and The Music of Styx Highway Run (Journey Tribute) over the last 3.5 years.

  • Roots Report: Come Sail Away and See Some Fall Shows
    Roots Report: Come Sail Away and See Some Fall Shows Okee dokee folks … Last month at the Rhythm and Roots Festival in Charlestown I ran into Abigail Washburn just before the reunion set of her band Uncle Earl. Abigail Washburn also is an amazing solo performer as well as musical partner and wife of the banjo master Bela Fleck, and they’ll both be at the Columbus Theatre for a show on October 21. After the Uncle Earl performance, Abby invited me onto her tour bus so that we could have a chat about her music, motherhood and the upcoming show at the Columbus. We headed to the back of the bus, which looked more like a nursery than a vehicle that transports and houses touring musicians. Her 3 and a half year old son, Juno, was along for the tour. As I sat on a diaper pad, Abby proudly showed me Juno’s training toilet that sported flashing lights and sort of looked like a slot machine, and told me that by the time they get back to RI for the show at the Columbus he should be using the “big person toilet”! She is obviously very happy to be a mom. I wondered if Juno had any interest in music and she told me that currently he wants to play golf. “He is his own person and we will let him choose what he wants.” I asked her about Uncle Earl and if this reunion was just for the half dozen shows that they performed across the US and she replied, “We hope to make it an annual reunion tour!” She said the Columbus show will be a vocal and banjo affair.
