Thanks for these, NH. I know I have them buried in my CD collection somewhere, but it is cool to have your downloads of them as well.

LOVE Born for Adventure. Froy is right. Smokin'! Wouldn't it be nice to hear Dennis, with his still amazing vocal range, sing this in concert again.

YEP this song should open the show from now on
Its time to put Grand Illusion to sleep,/

Is there a CD out with there older material like these that I am missing? If there is a cd of this I would like to have it to. Thanks

This might be from that April 18th, 1976 Toronto show that I have on audio cassette. SMOKIN' version of Born For Adventure! I suspect 22 Years was dropped after this tour for Equinox....
Suite & I love when Dennis goes NA NA NA NAH! during Born....

No it say's Chicago welcome A@M recording artist STYX.

it's stuff I got from someone, I honestly can't remember who. It was never titled, but I dubbed it Early Years to segregate from more recent stuff.

You Need Love

Fantastic

If anyone else has stuff they want to share feel free

Froy, the "Welcome A&M Recording Artists STYX" live tracks (Born For Adventure, Lorelei and Lady) that are out there are from Providence Rhode Island, like 1976. The quality is really good on these tracks.

There is a Bootleg from Toronto (Two I've heard, one from 76, and one from 78) that they do 22 Years on. I have that one but the quality is fair at best. Nowhere near the quality of the King Biscuit Flour Hour show that I talked about above.

The Toronto show is the only "full" bootleg I know of. But there must be a second one, because there's another show from 76 which includes "You Need Love" which I thought was from Toronto, but it doesn't fit ANYWHERE on that show. The quality is the same, but it doesn't flow with that show. Maybe it is from the Providence RI, show.

I know Jodes I have the reel to reel of it

It sounds like the guy says Chicago here is AM recording artist
Maybe he says FROM Chicago
You could be right

I think Suite has this boot as well.

Based on the way I have them listed on my computer, these are probably the Providence show. They are all bracketed the same way.

This is the KBFH taped in Providence, RI which was edited down to what KBFH aired both on reels (I have that) as well as later on the CDs.

I have always said Styx circa 1977 and earlier live is a much different band. You can tell they are hungry.

The 77 one I circulated to someone maybe 15 years ago and I think it made the rounds. It's winter I believe. I love to hear that they still did WN stuff that late. GI changed it all ...

I need to find time to organize what I have, my lists are a complete mess. These are the "older" boots I have. I have that A&M records presents: Styx, but I don't know which boot it is or what I have it titled under. Most of these, the years and titles might be wrong, sorry!

This is one of my favorite boots:

I would like to find the show from 1979 though. That's about the only "tour" that I don't have a boot for!

in case anyone was wondering, the mp3's were recordeded at 320kbps. The highest Real Player allows.

Yeah. I noticed! Thanks so much, NH, for posting them. I think I have them somewhere, but it was fun to just download and listen and not have to do a major search.

'preciate it!
