1983 - Kilroy Was Here - Styx

40 Years Ago - 1983 Styx released their eleventh album Kilroy Was Here.

A concept album and rock opera with two big singles.

The first was "Mr. Roboto" which made #3 on both the Hot 100 and Mainstream Rock charts.

I remember watching Kasey's Top Ten on the TV that summer to see the video and the unmasking was during the credits and the big logo was over the face when Mr. Roboto unmasked. Arghhhhh....

The next single "Don't Let It End" is your mid-tempo ballad that made #6 (#13 AC.)

The third single "High Time" (#48) was released last minute by A&M Records. With little promotion and no video. Its relatively poor performance killed momentum on the "Kilroy" album.
