Come Sail Away: Styx Anthology

Review

(A&M/UTV)

Starting out as the poor man’s Yes, Chicago’s Styx were the nadir of progressive rock, with preening vocals and witless instrumental flourishes that add up to pure self-parody. While experts may debate whether the wedding-reception ballads (“Babe”) or the pompous arena epics (“Mr. Roboto”) are sillier, both provide plenty of unintentional cheap laughs.
