5 out of 5 stars Awesome live cd.......2006-12-27

This cd really shows hwo awe inspiring styx was in concert and captures them at their best this cd really is something!

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Amazing.......2006-09-14

They can still Rock The Paradise. The unfortunate side is that not too much later Dennis DeYoung would bow out due Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and would leave the band. Which made some people angry. But here is my take on it if you're not healthy enough to go on tour than you shouldn't be aloud to make studio albums either.

Anyway this is a spectacular collection in front of a hometown crowd of Chicago. Where it all started. As you listen to this CD you will notice that their sound has not deteriorated one bit. They still sound great. And if you think the CD is good you should buy the DVD that's even better trust me.

This CD has all of their classic songs as well as 3 new ones "Paradise", "On My Way", and the one song that made me cry the first time I heard it "Dear John". That one has to be my favorite of the three. It's dedicated in memory of the late great John Panozzo my favorite member of the band. Their is no drums or percussion in this song. It made me tear up a little just listening to it. And Dennis' voice is just perfect for this song as well as JY, Dennis, and Chuck's back-up vocals are great too. Using acoustic guitars was great and the string background adds a nice touch.

Truly a great CD. If your going to get any live Styx CD get this one this is the best one. It is definetly worth the price.

4 out of 5 stars Styx - 'Return To Paradise' (CMC International) 2-CD.......2006-07-21

Remember seeing Styx on this actual tour,believe it was their last with Dennis De Young.Too bad they couldn't ever get him back in the band.Either way,this 2-CD live release is very good.With all the expected classic Styx classics here for our listening pleasure.Tunes like "Rockin' The Paradise","Lady","Snowblind","Suite Madame Blue",the epic "Grand Illusion","Fooling Yourself","Lorelei","Come Sail Away"(also like South Park's Cartmen's version of it)and many more make this release a should-have.Do check it out.

4 out of 5 stars Styx return...for a while.......2005-05-18

This release is great. All the guys are in top shape and ready to rock. The new drummer plays excellent.I really think this is a great compilation where allaspects and highlights of Styx's career is covered. I totally recommend this cd, being a Styx fan from the 70's. Sadly this return only lasted a short while.

            5 out of 5 stars Mancina's Best Score........2004-10-01

            This is without a doubt Mark Mancina's best score, and worth every second if your attention it will get on repeated listens. Here's why:

            He creates a beautiful, memorable theme that perfectly fit the film. You'll find it running through your head after a while. More and more these days themes are eschewed in favor of dynamic arrangements in scores. This is often the case with Media Ventures composers (Zimmer, Rona, etc.). Not so here.

            The score is varied in both it's moods, and arrangements. This was an underrated, emotional film that went through a lot of changes in it's story and characters. The challenging score fits that perfectly. It's sometimes complex, sometimes simple, often touching, and the emotions it conjures up are strong. Mancina also used a variety of instruments to fit the film's exotic nature. From flutes, pipes, gamelons and other Eastern instruments, to standard orchestration, all seamlessly.

            As one other reviewer noted, this score should have been nominated for an Oscar. I can only imagine it's due to his lack of high profile, because this score easily rivals the best work of Mancina's more heralded MV stablemate, Hans Zimmer. I'm not a raving fan of MV, or even Mancina, but this wonderful score is worth of all the praise it gets.

            5 out of 5 stars Where's the Oscar nomination for best score???.......2002-10-10

            Well this has to be one of the most underrated scores of the 1990's from one of the most underrated films. How this film didn't do better both in terms or awards and box-office is beyond me. How he didn't recevive any award nomination for his composition on 'Return to Paradise' is a crime (not only un my opinion).
            Getting back to the music, the score is breathtaking and really highlights all the emotions from the film including drama, suspense, fun, love and tradgedy. Mark Mancina has proved himself a very creative and innovative film composer capable of so much range and variety. From 'Speed', 'Tarzan' and most recently 'Domestic Disturbance', his scores have standed out in all the film's he's composed and usually, his score is one of the highlights of the film.
            Since there is a limited stock of this CD, I advise people to buy it a.s.a.p. and see the movie too while you're at it!

            5 out of 5 stars Amazing!.......2002-01-16

            The movie is great, sad & very beautyfull. So music also should.
            And it is! It's amazing - absolute power. Sadness, love, drama. It's all here! My favorite cues are: "Looking at you", "Hanging",
            "Return to Paradise" and of course "Bike Ride".

            4 out of 5 stars very nice.......1999-10-04

            I liked the movie, it was really sad, so was the music, it sent shivers down my spine, especially the hanging. Dramatic, powerful, and beautiful
