    Thanks for reacting to this Classic. Probably the proggiest song Styx ever did, along with Castle Walls.
    Written after the turmoil of Vietnam and the Watergate mess. "Madame Blue" = Statue of Liberty. A song saying "we should do better than this".
    "Lead us away from here.."

    Song was written for the 1976 bicentennial. Suite Madame Blue is the USA. The song is about how now 200 years later the USA had lost its innocence. We were no longer children. From Korea to all the assassinations and Vietnam our great country needed to get better. Fantastic song from an almost perfect album. Thank you for playing this. The Styx song "Man In The Wilderness" is cut from the same cord. It is equally perfect.

    "Lady" - I know it sounds like a soft love song and, given that its Styx, it "is" a soft love song, UNTIL ITS NOT. Still my favourite "drop" in all of music. It's "classical piano meets hard rock riffs" like you have never heard before. And that is a guarantee because no one ever did it like Styx.

    Probably been at least 20 years since I heard this. An anthem from my youth. Thanks for giving it the bump and some love. Stuff like this, in all honesty, is pretty dated but still great for looking at what great music we had back then. I mean, the production quality they were able the achieve with the equipment that was available? Incredible really. Both in and out of the studio. I saw them on the Grand Illusion tour and it raised the bar in terms of what could be done on stage live as a rock band.

Great musicians and great song writing. Grand Illusion was a banger my personal opinion that put them on the map. Great harmonies and great musical writing. You should do album review of Grand Illusion every song on that album is fire. Love what you guys are doing…

    The Queen of Spades, Miss America & Born for Adventure are 3 songs of theirs not to be missed. Trust me. All of their 70s work, and I mean all of it, is exceptional. It’s not for those who like top 40 music, but for those who like cerebral music that’s heavy and haunting. The Serpent is Rising is one of my desert island albums.
