Styx Guitar Collection is an electric guitar sheet music and TAB songbook featuring 11 straight-from-the-record transcriptions of songs by the American rock band Styx. Part of the Guitar Recorded Versions series, this medium-difficulty collection is for guitarists who want to learn and perform recognizable parts from the recordings while exploring the band’s blend of pop rock and progressive rock.
The book presents note-for-note guitar transcriptions with guitar tablature and standard notation, supported by vocal melody, lyrics, chord names, and a bass notation legend. Across its collection of Styx favorites, players can follow the recorded guitar parts while keeping the vocal lines, words, and harmonic framework close at hand. The sheet music presentation supports practice, rehearsal, performance, and reference.
Working from recorded-version transcriptions offers a detailed way to study the riffs, chord movement, melodic passages, and guitar textures that shape these songs. Rather than reducing the music to simplified outlines, the collection preserves the guitar material in note-for-note form, making it useful for learning individual songs, developing familiarity with Styx’s guitar writing, and preparing favorite selections for performance.
Song List
The Best of Times * Blue Collar Man (Long Nights) * Come Sail Away * Crystal Ball * The Grand Illusion * Lorelei * Mademoiselle * Miss America * Renegade * Rockin’ the Paradise * Suite Madame Blue
From the expansive character of Come Sail Away and Suite Madame Blue to the driving guitar sound of Renegade and Blue Collar Man (Long Nights), the collection brings a broad selection of Styx material together in one guitar-focused volume. It can serve as a lasting reference for learning and revisiting the band’s music, preparing songs for performance, or giving a Styx guitarist a practical music gift built around classic recordings.
