STYX is Awesome! This performance was 21 years after the song was released, and they're still touring today. This song has an intro. track, "Prelude 12", before it on the "Equinox" album. "Suite" refers to a song with multiple movements (i.e. parts) along a similar theme but different in tempo and musically. I think that's what reminds you of the Queen song "Bohemian Rhapsody" which was also released at the end of 1975. Suggestions: "Come Sail Away" (NOT the Official short video for MTV), "Fooling Yourself", "Blue Collar Man", "CASTLE WALLS", "Queen Of Spades", "Crystal Ball", "Lady", "Renegade".
Dennis DeYoung wrote this song in 1975 as America was gearing up for its bicentennial celebration in 1976. He said the bicentennial was being overtaken by commercialization. The whole band is really talented. Tommy Shaw was playing the double neck guitar. He also sings leads in some songs and so does James Young the other guitar player. I think Dennis has one of the best voices in rock music and I have always put him in my top 5 singers. Unfortunately he was more theatrical than the other band mates and they parted ways. I have seen Dennis perform with the Broadway musical Jesus Christ Superstar when they came to town. It was a fantastic cast with the original Jesus (Ted Neeley) and Judas (Carl Anderson) from the movie with Irene Cara and Dennis played Pontius Pilate. I can't even tell you the number of times I have seen Styx from the 70s to just a couple of years ago. I have a wide variety of music interests and because of my boys they keep introducing me to bands I would never have listened to. I have plenty of suggestions lol.
In the "Caught in the Act" live album Dennis holds the last "Moooooooore" 47 seconds.😱 I've had the privilege of seeing them three times. Twice with the original line up, including John,😇 and once with Lawrene Gowen. Dennis was better, but they still rock.
This is my favorite Styx song!
😮 Don't stop the music!
Love that you are reviewing different genres. Styx was epic!

The double neck guitar is a 12 string neck on top
and a 6 string neck on the bottom.
Awesome instrument.
Nice job my Man.
