Stranger

This melodic pop rock quartet was formed in Florida, USA, during 1981 by Greg Billings (vocals), Ronnie Garvin (guitar), Tom Cardenas (bass) and John Price (drums). With the line-up stabilized, they signed to CBS Records the following year. Produced by Tom Werman (of Ted Nugent and Mötley Crüe fame), their debut album was a highly impressive collection of anthemic rockers, punctuated by some fiery guitar work from Garvin. Despite its seemingly obvious commercial potential the album failed to make an impact, and little was heard of the band until a second album, a full nine years later.
