Music of Styx: Live With Symphony Orchestra
by Rob TheakstonRecorded in Chicago in 2003, former Styx lead singer Dennis DeYoung returns to his hometown for a two-disc session filled with Styx's finest moments backed by a symphony orchestra. DeYoung performs all of the most memorable hits and his voice hasn't lost a step. There are also classical pieces from Mozart and Debussy intermittently planted about throughout the program. Diehard fans of Styx will no doubt enjoy this, but casual fans would be better served picking up a greatest-hits compilation to hear the band in its full sonic glory.
