3.0 out of 5 stars Not Really Extended, But Still STYX!, April 12, 2000

By 

Colin Crews (Birmingham, Al United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Extended Versions (Audio CD)

This CD is a re-release of several songs from 1997's STYX Return To Paradise. The disc is entitled EXTENDED VERSIONS, however after comparing the length of the songs to their counterparts on Return To Paradise I found them to be exactly the same. These cuts are not any different or longer than those on Return To Paradise. The track list is as follows: Blue Collar Man (4:34), Lady (3:29), Fooling Yourself (5:55), Renegade (6:02), Show Me The Way (5:11), Lorelei (4:04), Babe (4:50), Too Much Time On My Hands (5:43), Come Sail Away (8:34), The Best Of Times (7:42). If you are a STYX completist then you may want this disc. The cover has a picture of the band that I have not seen before (Todd, Chuck, JY, Tommy, Dennis).I was looking forward to some sweet jammed out takes on these tunes by STYX but these are just the same ones that came out in 1997. Oh well it's still STYX, just nothing new.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Discount Version of "Return to Paradise", September 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Extended Versions (Audio CD)

If you already Own "Return to Paradise" don't Waste your time & money on this one. As the previous reviewer points out the tracks are the exact same length as those tracks found on the complete 2 CD "Return to Paradise" because they are indeed the exact same tracks. Another example of record company chislers trying to squeeze the last dime out of an artist by repackaging an existing release and confusing their fans with titles such as "Encore Collection: Extended Versions" when they should have called it "Return to Return to Paradise" so us Styx fans know what we are getting into. A good choice for the casual fan if you don't want to pony up for the 2 CD version. Check out the new "Arch Allies" 2 CD release for some fresh live Styx & Reo from the 2000 tour. I was in the 4th row at that show when they filmed and recorded it at Riverport and it kicked.

4.0 out of 5 stars A low priced version of the live CD from 2000., February 14, 2002

I only bought this CD as a collectors item, it is exactly the same as the REO disk in the STYX/REO Arch Allies CD, but with the addition of a video of 157 Riverside Ave. for PC.
Overall a great low cost live CD for any rock fan and a collector's item for any REO fan.
