I was born in '73 when this album was released, and I've heard other music from that time period and it seems to me that Styx was a little ahead of it's time. It seems to me that this music was pretty hard edged for it's time.
This "Numer Two" singer for Styx is great...he has an exclamative pitch that is truly underrated, for its effect is perfect for progressive/symphonic rock compositions...
I am happy to live in the present, but 'Jonas Psalter' somehow makes me wish that it could be 1970-1973 again.
I remember buying the album cause of the cover, and it seemed to try to tell a story with a series of stories. It was pretty commonplace and not original in story, but they do finish songs well
WOW- Thanks for posting the lyrics to this rare Styx track. I was right in thinking it was about pirates when I first listened to the "Serpent" disc.
