After years of constant gigs in the city of Chicago and its surrounding areas, STYX was finally noticed by WN (Wooden Nickle) Records (an RCA subsidiary label). However, they were not known as STYX just yet; they had been calling themselves TW4. But with a recommendation from WN, TW4 finally decided upon the name STYX out of hundreds of suggestions! Their debut album "STYX", was released in 1972. And eventhough STYX had many songs that were written by Dennis, JY and JC, WN insisted that they should record songs by other people for their first album. But, JY and Dennis basically had the record company eat their own words, because it was a song that had been co-written by both Dennis and JY that had made it into the HOT 100--"Best Thing"!
