Styx - Witch Wolf

[SouthSideBluesMan]

As a resident of Roseland in Chicago during the 60's it was amazing to see people from the neighborhood make good. I was friends with cousins of the Panozzo brothers and remember the bad way before they went by Styx. Loved "Witch Wolf";

Rest In Peace, John Panozzo

An obscure gem from the old pre-mainstream years.....

[ClassicTVMan1981X]

This album was released in October 1973, only three months after the release of their second album, Styx II, which contained "Lady." 1973 would be the only year Styx would release two studio albums, correct?

This stuff is something to listen to after watching Xena/Hercules, or before Conan The Barbarian!

One band...so much great music...

Renegade is overrated, there are so many other good Styx songs.

[Warriorslover45]

i prefer renegade this song isn't really my style

[mrroboto5785]

I think these albums are great, too bad the only song you ever hear done from them is Lady.

[BluCholla]

This is perhaps their best song, too bad it never went "Mainstream"

[GreenerHill]

Probably the heaviest song on the album. I think all the Wooden Nickel albums are great.

The scream at 3:30 is up there with 'Won't Get Fooled Again.'

[TitaniumGrass]

@countmagnus08 I loved his scream,

great song thanks for posting

[thatOtherDude100]

underrated band: Styx, underrated guitarist: JY, underrated album: Serpent is rising

[wakaw07]

@thatOtherDude100 I agree

[TheHeadFuck]

Yeah-I bought this album directly after its release and I still got this LP and I love it. I think Styx should have continued with this type of thing instead of the more soft thang they produced after this album. Henri Sweden

Yes this is a JY tune. And its great.

[Dragonfly6160]

I think James Young wrote this. Much different than other Styx songs.

[TuberOnTheLoose]

@Dragonfly6160 Styx pretty much followed The Beatles' lead in that whoever wrote the song normally did the lead vocals. JY is singing it, and yes, he wrote it along with a gentleman named Ray Brandle.

Great early Styx

[SheikaLeBeau]

I love this song, thanks for putting it up! Now I can get my friends to listen as well! XD <3

[HeavensDemon966]

I have been looking for this song on U-tube forever!!! I had a, "Best of Styx" cassette from way in the early 80's with this tune on it. I wore it out. My all time favorite song of Styx is this one. Thanks!!!

[TuberOnTheLoose]

@HeavensDemon966 I highly recommend buying the double CD called "The Complete Wooden Nickel Recordings." It has all four of their Wooden Nickle albums plus a nice track that wasn't on an album ironically called "Unfinished Song."

Thankx 4 the post of this overlooked early Styx tune!!!!!
