WTF, RENEGADE IS HOW OLD !?!

LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JAN 9, 2019…IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT EXACTLY 40 YEARS AGO STYX RELEASED THE SINGLE ‘RENEGADE’. THE SONG TELLS THE STORY OF A MAN THAT WAS CONVICTED OF A CRIME AND WAS HEADING TO THE GALLOWS TO DIE. ENCLOSED IN THE LYRICS ARE A LETTER TO HIS MOTHER. RENEGADE WAS WRITTEN BY TOMMY SHAW WHO ALSO SANG LEAD VOCALS, WHILE JAMES YOUNG SUPPLIED THE LEAD GUITAR RIFFS.

HERE’S STYX WITH A LIVE VERSION OF RENEGADE
