CORNERSTONE

While many folks would pan this album due to the soft ballads "Babe" and "First Time," this remains one of the finest efforts that Styx put together. Not only do they score big with the ballads (and score they do, despite the backlash years later), but they also catch the attention with interesting lyrics and song styles. Classic tracks like "Lights," "Boat on the River," "Borrowed Time," and "Eddie" are not to be missed.
