DESERT MOON (LIVE WITH SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA) [BONUS TRACK] Media Reviews and More This is the final album by Dennis DeYoung, best known as the vocalist of Styx, a representative figure of American rock. In recent years, Dennis DeYoung has been actively performing solo concerts, primarily playing Styx songs, and releasing recordings of these performances. Last year, he released "26 East: Vol. 1," his first studio album in 13 years. This album follows that one, and will be his first new album in a year. The album title is also likely to be "26 East," named after Dennis DeYoung's birthplace in Chicago, Illinois, where Styx was formed. This is the second part of what will be Dennis's final album, a two-part series due to the large number of songs he wrote, and this will be his true final work. It is also a crucial work in that it marks the end of Dennis's career. (C)RS
