Styx was not always the name of the Chicago-based quintet who is noted for the development of the term 'pomp-rock’ meaning pompous, overblown arrangements, with perfect-pitch harmonies and full productions. They began their days as the band Tradewinds, which evolved into T.W.4. Finally, in 1972, they settled on the name Styx (after the river in hell described in Greek mythology). The band's talents all hail from the Midwest: Dennis Deyoung on keyboards and vocals, John Panozzo on drums, James Young on guitar and vocals, Chuck Panozzo on bass, and John Curulewski on guitar.

During the early 1970s, Styx released a series of albums based mostly on strong melodies, starting off with their debut self-titled album. Though the band gained a strong local following, they were not noticed nationally. The joys of Styx didn't hit the public fully until their 1973 release Styx II, which featured the single 'Lady', hitting the Billboard Top 10 list in 1975.
With the success of the single, A&M records signed Styx the same year, and the much beloved Equinox was released. During the same period of change for the band, John Curulewsky left, to be replaced by Tommy Shaw. Shaw soon took over lead vocals and began to be a primary contributor to writing the band's original songs.
Commercial success grew over the next few years as Styx became more publicly known. In 1977 they released The Grand Illusion, which hit number six on the Billboard Charts. 'Sail Away' was a favorite single from the album. Soon after, Styx achieved every rockers dream and produced a Billboard Number 1 single, 'Babe'.
