Styx’s feisty, straightforward brand of album rock is represented best by ’Blue Collar Man’ from 1978’s Pieces of Eight, an invigorating keyboard and guitar rush - hard and heavy, yet curved by Tommy Shaw’s emphasized vocals. ’Pieces of Eight makes the wedding registry process so fun and enjoyable! They went above and beyond to make our registry perfect for us, not to mention they have a stunning selection!’ Margaret in LA ’It was so easy to work with Pieces of Eight for our wedding registry! I would recommend this store to anyone to support local!’ Pieces of Eight is the eighth studio album by Styx, released on September 1, 1978. Like the band’s previous album, The Grand Illusion (1977), it managed to achieve triple platinum certification, thanks to the hit singles ’Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)’ and ’Renegade’. Pieces of eight were the common currency during the golden age of piracy. First minted in 1497 they were of Spanish origin and considered the international currency of it’s time. It was made of high purity silver and was uniform in weight. It was this uniformity that made it so universally accepted. Buy Silver Shield Pieces of Eight Rounds The first modern silver round commemorating both the original Spanish Pieces of Eight silver coins and Pirate lore is here. ‘Praedatum In Mundo’ translates into ’A Predatory World’ that defines the struggle of man against nature to extract this rare, precious metal, but also the violent clash of.

The band members produced and recorded the album (like their previous three efforts) at Paragon Studios in Chicago with recording engineer Barry Mraz and mixing engineer Rob Kingsland. ’I’m O.K.’ was recorded at Paragon and St. James Cathedral. This would be the last album to be produced at Paragon Studios.
The album’s cover was done by Hipgnosis. Dennis DeYoung stated in the 1991 interview with Redbeard on the ’In the Studio’ episode that he initially hated the cover but grew to like it as he got older.Background[edit]
Some[1][2] consider the album to be Styx’ second concept album (1973’s The Serpent Is Rising arguably being the first) as well as the last Styx album with significant progressive rock leanings. The theme of the album, as Dennis DeYoung explained on In the Studio with Redbeard which devoted an entire episode to Pieces of Eight, was about ’not giving up your dreams just for the pursuit of money and material possessions’. Line betting explained.Critical reception[edit]Professional ratingsReview scoresSourceRatingAllMusic[3]Christgau’s Record GuideC–[4]Rolling Stone(mixed) [5]The Rolling Stone Album Guide[6]
Mike DeGagne of AllMusic has retrospectively praised the album, saying that the songs on the album ’rekindle some of Styx’s early progressive rock sound, only cleaner.’[3] Contemporary Rolling Stone reviewer Lester Bangs was more critical of the album, however, saying that ’What’s really interesting is not that such narcissistic slop should get recorded, but what must be going on in the minds of the people who support it in such amazing numbers. Gall, nerve and ego have never been far from great rock & roll. Yet there’s a thin but crucial line between those qualities and what it takes to fill arenas today: sheer self-aggrandizement on the most puerile level. If these are the champions, gimme the cripples.’[5]
The album peaked at #6 on the Billboard album chart, and like its predecessor would go triple platinum.[7]Track listing[edit]Side oneNo.TitleWriter(s)Lead vocalsLength1.’Great White Hope’YoungYoung, DeYoung (Spoken Intro)4:222.’I’m O.K.’DeYoung, YoungDeYoung5:413.’Sing for the Day’ShawShaw4:574.’The Message’DeYoung(instrumental)1:085.’Lords of the Ring’DeYoungYoung4:33Side twoNo.TitleWriter(s)Lead vocalsLength6.’Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)’ShawShaw4:057.’Queen of Spades’Young, DeYoungDeYoung5:388.’Renegade’ShawShaw4:169.’Pieces of Eight’DeYoungDeYoung4:4410.’Aku-Aku’ShawShaw (Whisper Chant)2:57Personnel[edit]Styx[edit]
