5.0 out of 5 stars Remastered and worth the price!, October 4, 1999

By A Customer

This has been digitally remastered by the Japanese, contains liner notes and full lyrics. The sound is incredible! And "Fugue" doesn't cut off on the begining like the US Version. These Japanese versions are must haves!

5.0 out of 5 stars styx II, August 3, 2003

By	jd shoell - See all my reviews

This album was my first taste of Styx. Ever since that time, I was hooked and a diehard fan. Styx used to play in Utah at a place called the Icehouse, before they really became famous. In Utah County, Lady became the top hit for several weeks while it remained unknown elsewhere around the country. From the organ solo on Little Fugue in G, to the youthful Earl of Roseland, Styx honed out a masterpiece. Curulewski was an incredible predecessor to Tommy Shaw and the team of DeYoung and Young, made up some of the most memorable lyrics on the album. It is a shame the present group doesn't do more from this original album. Even Dennis DeYoung (now solo), has forgotton the roots which made them famous. This is a must album if you can find it. I have an original LP version and still play it on the turntable and take myself back to the "Good old Days" playing sport with Davie.

I Love This Stuff And I Am A Huge Fan Of Styx Both The Early And Later Stuff. But As I Look At The Reviews Here I See That None Of You Know Why John Curulewski Left. JC Left To Family Problems He Wanted To Save His Family And His Marriage And He Is A Good Man For Doing That.


Anyway STYX II was Styx's sophmore album and they are really coming together on this one. If you listen to all the Styx albums in order you can constantly hear them making little steps to superstardom and getting better. My favorite songs on here are definetly "Lady", "You Need Love", and "I'm Gonna Make You Feel It". All the other songs on this are great too, especially "Father O.S.A.", "A Day", and "You Better Ask."


This is a great album to end your collection with. I highly suggest you buy it. It really is some great music to won. And if you really are a music lover you will buy this album.
