The Grand Illusion (which reached #6 in '77) was the first rung on Styx's ladder to arena-sized superstardom. The second was Pieces of Eight ('78), which also hit #6 and now returns to glory on limited-edition 180-gram audiophile vinyl. The prog-rock complexity of their early LPs still thrives, but the melodic hooks are getting sharper and sharper here; the hits Renegade; Blue Collar Man, and Sing for the Day join Pieces of Eight; Queen of Spades, and more swaggering sounds of a Chicago band turning into national stars!
