This is from Styx II and not Crystal Ball, I have them all. Actually Dad or Grampa had them, I inherited them, but I grew up listening to them. Tommy Shaw is not playing 12 string either, it was JY or JC. Tommy was recruited after JC left the band, he was still playing bars and bowling alley's at the time and stated so himself. He also admitted to being intimidated by JY's skill on the guitar. He was an amazing addition to the band though, and was exactly what they needed. Styx II, Equinox, Crystal ball and Grand Illusion are their best albums IMHO. They are not the same band now without Dennis's voice, John's passing and Chuck only playing part time. They should have stayed a progressive rock band as well, that's when they were at their very best. Peace

No, last half of song was Sweet Madam Blue, gaze in your looking glass, we're not childs anymore... Although we're Zillions in debt, and no one not even I gives a shit.... That's how I interpreted it.... Dennis was writing his way up to fame and stardom obviously was pretty dam good and then wrote in 1976 Sweet Madam Blue for bicentennial... he made the band, and in the end, they fucked him... oh well, fingers go up holes in the doctors offices don't they?

Love this song, but...am I the only one who things that from about 2:47-3:29 sounds like it should be the background music of a Coke commercial?

From what I understood,Styx started falling apart because once-rockers like DDY wanted to go for the awful 70s love ballads and move away from the rock. Songs like Babe, (actually most of Cornerstone), and the push for rock opera themed albums led the band to split. By the time of Kilroy was Here, JY was the only one doing hard rock with DDY wanting stuff like Don't Let it End. Granted musical styles were changing, but Styx just wasn't ready for the new direction.
