Tom shares a holiday poem Clement Clarke Moore
When I was but a young lad, I idolized Smokey Robinson. I always wanted to be able to sing like him, but then puberty hit and there went the falsetto (such as it ever was in the first place). I loved the way he put words together; Nobel Laureate Bob Dylan called Smokey Robinson America s greatest living poet. But how could I (or anyone, for that matter) compete with .when it s cold outside, I ve got the month of May.?
I had long ago given up on my Smokey dreams. But then I recently watched Hitsville, a documentary about the making of Motown. There was a scene of Smokey and The Miracles performing along with the rest of the Motown Revue at the legendary Apollo Theater. Hope springs eternal!
45 Years Ago: Styx Finds Their Final Puzzle Piece in Tommy Shaw
Earlier that year, the band had broken through thanks to Lady, a two-year old song from
Styx II. Even though Styx had released a pair of albums since then, WLS, the most powerful rock station in their hometown of Chicago, had been playing it nightly during DJ John Landecker s show to give the local band greater exposure. WLS national influence, as well as the song s propulsive, bolero-influenced second chorus, helped the tune reach No. 6 on the
Billboard Hot 100.
The success of Lady attracted the major labels, and Styx left the small Wooden Nickel Records for A&M. But it also fueled a power struggle and an identity crisis within the band between singer-keyboard player Dennis DeYoung, who offered theatrical bombast and balladry, and guitarists John Curulewski and James “J.Y.” Young, who preferred straightforward hard rock.
