Edge 2?

If Edge 2 was already recorded, then why wasn't it released? And if Dennis had written songs for it, why haven't we heard them in the almost 14 years since they were done?

I would guess that Dennis would have had 5 songs that he wrote on the album. Come on Dennis if you wrote and recorded stuff, lets here it...

GREAT information thebook, thanks for finding it !!! I wish the Styxnet site was still up, that was a great site.

I'm looking forward to hearing "All in a Day's Work" for sure. I also hope that they re-record these songs for maybe a new cd? Or add to Dennis' new cd and have Glen as a guest or on Glen's new cd and have Dennis as a guest. I hope these songs make the light of day on cd by any of them - LOL

I thought the reason these were never released was that DDY didnt feel they were up to the standards required of a Styx CD........

I don't think this is the case, more of a matter with A&M and their record deal.

It really is. One of my favorite Glen tunes.

Wasn't "Love & Love Alone" also one of the lost tracks?

Love And Love Alone was recorded by JYG before the reunion in 1996 wasn't it?

Didnt Hank Horton sign lead on that song off the Raised By Wolves CD??

If so, and they perform it wouldnt he sing it here?? Hank is an excellent vocalist!!!

I thought Raised By Wolves was a VERY GOOD CD!!
