Free Music Notes for Styx/Gold: Come Sail Away
Free Music Review: A top-notch collection
Hit: 5 Stars
Formerly known as "Come Sail Away:The Styx Anthology", this is the definitive collection of Styx's best known hits and selected album cuts. It also includes material from their Wooden Nickel days (pre-Tommy Shaw) so you get the original version of their first Top Ten hit "Lady". The set ends with a track from the '03 album "Cyclorama", their first album after Dennis DeYoung's departure. Since there's no boxed set from them (yet),this is the place to go for the ultimate Styx collection. (because the hits "Why Me" and "Don't Let It End" were left off, my rating is actually 4.75 stars)
Styx/Gold: Come Sail Away Poster
Styx may have had their musical roots in the UK's burgeoning late-'60s/early-'70s prog-rock bombast, but they were true pioneers in at least one sense: The Chicago-bred quintet virtually defined the hugely successful "corp rock" boom that followed a decade after prog's original fortunes tarnished. And if that label suggests a certain sense of the formulaic, in Styx it actually denoted a band with sharp ears and a shrewder sense of rock history, attested to immediately here by the Yes-inspired harmonies of "You Need Love" and the staccato rhythms of the Beatles' "Getting Better" on "Winner Take All." This 35-track double-disc anthology charts a course from sudden fame to its sometimes stormy aftermath, spanning the band's 1972 debut and its resilient 2003 comeback contender, Cyclorama. But after working their way up from the Grand Funk-worthy, meat 'n' instant potatoes of "Rock and Roll Feeling" and bald-faced melodramatics of "Lady" and "Come Sail Away" to the gutsier edge of "Blue Collar Man" and "Too Much Time on My Hands," rising tides of punk and new wave began to erode their younger demographic. And by the time "Babe" gave way to the faux techno of '83's "Mr. Roboto," even those sympathetic to the band's hook-rich, prog-lite sensibility seemed restless. Still, their Tommy Shaw-dominate output in the '90s and beyond showcased a band that had subtly matured from their arena-rock clich? salad days. --Jerry McCulleyPop Music CDs
