The Grand Illusion

The Grand Illusion was Styx’s 7th overall album and 3rd for A&M Records. It proved to be a worldwide smash, launching them into the super stardom stratosphere,and producing 2 top singles and album cut hits. Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing of this album from the AOR/classic rock band. Originally released in 1977, The Grand Illusion became Styx’s first Platinum selling album, powered by the singles “Come Sail Away” and “Your Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man)”. Led by the talents of Dennis DeYoung (vocals/keyboards), Tommy Shaw (vocals/guitar), and James J.Y. Young (vocals/guitar), Styx became one of the most successful FM/Arena Rock bands in the U.S. during the latter half of the ’70’s and into the early ’80’s. With brothers Chuck (bass/vocals) and John Panozzo (drums), the band ruled the airwaves for a decade before their split in ’84. DeYoung’s distinct vocals and pop oriented material worked well against Shaw’s edgier material, garnering the band important airplay on FM and AM radio stations.
