Pieces of Eight album for sale Product Description
Pieces of Eight album for sale by Styx was released Nov 21, 2011 on the Friday Music label. This album basically picks up where its predecessor, the breakthrough GRAND ILLUSION left off, and is equally effective. Pieces of Eight buy CD music Dennis DeYoung's title tune about the emptiness of wealth (a subject on which he was beginning to gain first-hand experience) continues the previous album's thematic thread nicely. Tommy Shaw's infectious rockers "Renegade" and "Blue Collar Man" would become two of the group's most popular songs, and deservedly so. Pieces of Eight CD music contains a single disc with 10 songs. ...See Full Description

| Classic Styx If you like Grand Illusion, you'll also like Pieces of Eight. It's great music from beginning to end. I highly recommend it! By a reviewer (Detroit, MI, USA)  This review is for a different format. |
| It's been a long time I have always been a tremendous Styx fan. Though I'm not fond of their recent music, the older Styx is what its all about. Growing up I had all of their older albums. I never started a CD collection (it would have been too expensive). I bought this cassette to bring back the memories and to reconfirm that the older music is what made them one of my favourite groups.

| May be Their Best Album With Tommy Shaw Arguable Yes! I Agree! BUT, Styx built a stong loyal, local fan fan base with five albums before Tommy Shaw ever showed up. To those of us that have been around from the beginning, Styx has always beem known for the magical, mystical genious of Dennis Deyoung's songwriting ability. These songs take us to a special place and time, or a special time in our past! This has always been a multitalented band and this effort is no exception. No band that possesses 3 songwriters and 3 lead vocalists, along with incredible harmonies can fail, unless they're cursed! By a reviewer (New Port Richey FL USA) This review is for a different format. |
| Their Best This album was a combination of everything that made Styx great. It is the best example of their combination of progressive and pop. Queen Of Spades is the greatest Dennis DeYoung penned tune of all time. It showed he could rock with the best and not just write great ballads and anthems. I grew up on this album and would list it as one of my desert island discs. By Rich (Appleton, WI, USA) This review is for a different format. |
| Excellent, perfection Incredible to think that the song Pieces of Eight could be the best Stix song ever, epic, the crescendos, and the lirics deep and profound, Sing for the day, Tommy Shaw at his best By naboria17 (PR, USA) This review is for a different format. |
