STYX & THE CONTEMPORARY YOUTH ORCHESTRA OF CLEVELAND One With Everything
Eagle Rock (2006)

Styx

The CD version of the concert also available on DVD, although this CD doesn't feature the two newly recorded Christmas tunes. But you do get two new songs on here in the shape of the studio recording 'Just Be', a gentle ballad with ethereal keys and soaring guitars - very progressive.

Then there is 'Everything All The Time', a more straight ahead rocker driven with those trademark Styx harmony choruses.

As with the DVD the set list features many cover versions from last year's 'Big Bang Theory' album, including 'I am The Walrus', which sounds so much batter with the orchestra backing and 'I Don't Need No Doctor', which again takes on a new life with added orchestral backing.

Of course the Styx classics are there including 'Renegade', 'Boat On The River' and a rocking 'Blue Collar Man' which starts the CD of in fine style.

My advice is get both the CD and DVD as they are essential for all Styx fans!
