He may not have been as flashy and quick handed as Todd (who is a beast, no doubt) but the enthusiasm with which John played was contagious!! He built a solid and sophisticated foundation for all of these Styx classics upon which Todd has been able to add his indelible stamp. As affable as Todd is, I am sure he would be the first to tell you that he is truly grateful for the gift of being able to embellish and add more context to what are already wonderful tracks to begin with.
