He's an amazing songwriter, guitarist, singer. I would, however, love to see him just One Last Time with DDY, to hear the magic of their voices together again live. Then, afterwards, they can all go do their thing.

    What a great guy, a totally humble man. I had a sports store in a southside Chicago mall back in the early 80's & Styx would record their albums at a very small studio next door to the mall called Pumpkin Studios. He came into my store once on a recording break to kill time while recording an album. I noticed him right away & when he walked in I happened to be on the phone with a friend of mine. I told him that Tommy Shaw just walked in & my friend didn't believe me. He said if it's him then put him on the phone.....I did & he talked to my friend like he knew him. Afterward he bought a bunch of things from me, a raquetball raquet, a bunch of raquetballs & some warmups or track suits. I don't play guitar but the guy i was on the phone with was a guitar player & just the day before I was at his place and just happened to pick up a copy of Guitar Player magazine on his table & started reading an interview that none other, Tommy Shaw gave to them. I told him that & he said that that was THE only interview he ever gave where they printed exactly everything that he had said & that they were totally honest. But again, what a great guy he was.

Of course Steven Tyler's voice doesn't sound the same way it did in 1972... The man is 74 years old. Again, at 60 years old Jon Bon Jovi's voice is fried, and as far as I know the man has never drank or done drugs in his entire life. Everyone is different.

    Tommy is one of my favorite musicians. Like many others on here commenting I grew up on Styx since I was like 18. I see them every chance I get and Tommy's voice and guitar always sounds excellent. Styx is one of those bands lucky enough to have 2 excellent lead players. Allows for so much diversity. I really appreciate all he has done with the youth orchestra. Tommy is one of a kind person/musician and I am very thankful I have had opportunity to "grow up" listening to him through the years.

    • @wgrace451
      @wgrace451 11 месяцев назад

      I also grew up on Styx. Though everything really came together commercially for them with Pieces of Eight in my opinion, their older stuff is gold!! Best move they ever made was adding Tommy Shaw. I'm surprised Dennis allowed it. Maybe his ego wasn't as big early on.

    • @wgrace451
      @wgrace451 11 месяцев назад

      I'm not forgetting Grand Illusion with Come Sail Away. I just think pieces of eight with songs like Blue Collar Man brought them further to mainstream
