[TheSilverhawaiian]

I thought "Little Fugue" would be a great intro or base of a rock song recently. Looks like Styx beat me to it.

[RuBeerRun]

You made a old man happy. Thank You so much I can remember when I was back in High School at Morton West in Berwyn IL. Going to see are local band Styx play at St Joes High School in Westchester. Ahh the memories Thank You.

osa most likely order of st augustine, the augustinians ran Mendel catholic high school on the south side of chicago where several members of the band attendend..

Thanks for posting. This was my favorite song on the album. I listened to this on a daily basis when I was 11-14. What great memories of a better time/place. Too bad the liberals and the government have destroyed our country. Our children and their children's children will never experience what we once had. Let it be a lesson to all. Tolerance of everthing/everyone, a lack of absolutes and Socialism will bring a society to it's knees. My, how it has.

I disliked those reissue covers. They looked like a 6 year old made them with construction paper. The original covers were awesome.

[charliejg]

This song just isn't the same without Little Fugue. I have the vinyl as well. Great album!

[cyagnusxi]

A rockin song the radio seems to have forgotten about.

[crossfiremechanix]

STYX II IS STYX IN THEIR FINEST HOUR!!! I OWN THE ENTIRE WOODEN NICKEL COLLECTION AND ITS A GREAT LISTEN.

[CaptNemo100]

Okay, I have a question. At one point in time, was Little Fugue missing in it's entirety on this album or was it just a portion of Little Fugue that was missing?

Actually, this organ prelude ("Little Fugue in "G") was originally pressed onto Styx II that was first released in 1973 on vinyl. I have both 1973 and the 1980 reissue on the RCA label (vinyl).

[yarekhunt]

I too am a proud owner of an original print STYX II vinyl

O.S.A. is an acronym for several religious orders. In this case possibly/probably Order Of Saint Augustine, a Catholic order.

Thanks GrandmasterLife for putting this up, this was probably my favorite Styx album.

[allanon46]

Another band that has expanded the age of time and won. it touches the heart and soul.

[morefngdbs]

very nice...a little Bach & a little Rock ~:)

[MrEfslrg1]

We can compare this wonderful work with the Bach´s music,it´s amazing,realy it´s hard to explain with words.

[TuberOnTheLoose]

I first had this album on *gasp* 8 track. That stunk. It changed tracks right in the middle of songs. I always wondered what the "O.S.A." in the title meant. I remember my little brother offering the suggestion "of south america," but honestly I have no clue.

[groundhog713]

This is my favorite song on this LP. I have the 1st pressing of this Wodden Nickel/RCA, which has the punch-out letters, and a gatefold which shows the painting of the river Styx...

[glen713]

@groundhog713 Only 2,448 hit? WTF? Classic song!! They don't make em like this anymore.

[mostlyautumn]

@glen713 - yes, they do. there is so much great modern progressive rock bands that blow Styx away.

[nalcow]

[kingemerald1]

[mudbucket5050]
