Weekend Wildcard - Lady by Styx

This Weekend's Wildcard is Lady by Styx. This is off of their 1973 album Styx II. After the song became a hit a couple of years later, the band switched record companies. This is the only song from the band's four Wooden Nickel-era albums that is still performed live. They have disowned all other songs from that era.

The singer wrote this song for his wife. He initially wrote it on an electric piano but when he got to the recording studio, there was an acoustic piano there and he liked the sound so much that he ended up recording it on that instead.

In hindsight, I should have worked this into our wedding reception! This was used in Old School as at Frank the Tank's wedding reception performed by the The Dan Band.
