It was a cinderella story, a glam metal band in the mid 1980s who turned out to wield a hard blues-metal sound that would sell fifteen million albums.

And if it hadn’t turned out that way, what would have been the point of their name?

Their debut album Night Songs, reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 200, many of their singles hitting the teens. Of the charts. And teenagers, too.

The band continued playing, off and on, until 2017, but has announced that it has no plans to reunite. But maybe they’ll miss touring…you don’t know what you’ve got, until it’s gone.
