Live In Chicago Mantra Studio Recordings

Styx

A raw, unpolished 1970s radio broadcast capturing the band's theatrical arena rock in an intimate, dry studio setting. Stripped of studio sheen, the songs hit harder.

A high-energy, dramatic, and surprisingly raw celebration of classic progressive rock anthems.

Moments Worth Listening For
The raw, unpolished transition in Come Sail Away where the delicate piano ballad explodes into a heavy, guitar-driven space rock jam.
The massive, soaring vocal harmonies on Suite Madame Blue that sound surprisingly huge despite the dry, intimate studio acoustics.
The blistering synthesizer solo on Fooling Yourself that cuts through the mix with a gritty, uncompressed analog bite.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
