180-gram LP sold individually

Part of the box set Styx: The A&M Albums: 1975-1984

Styx: The A&M Albums 1975-1984, is a nine LP box set featuring eight of of the band's most iconic albums (including the double live set Caught in the Act), pressed on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl, from Universal Music Enterprises. The individual albums will also be available separately as part of the UMe "Back to Black" vinyl reissue series.

The Grand Illusion (1977) was the band's most successful album to date, spawning the hit singles, "Come Sail Away" and "Fooling Yourself," eventually selling more than 3 million albums in the U.S., peaking at No. 6 on the Billboard 100. DeYoung described the album's theme as overcoming superficial differences by recognizing "deep inside we're all the same," as the title track put it. The album cover, created by the famed San Francisco team of Alton Kelley and Stanley Mouse, is an homage to a painting by Magritte.
