Pleasant, Mich., the concert’s lineup featured original members Lou Gramm, Al Greenwood, Dennis Elliott, Ian McDonald and Rick Wills alongside Mick Jones and Foreigner's newest lineup featuring Kelly Hansen, Tom Gimbel, Jeff Pilson, Michael Bluestein, Bruce Watson and Chris Frazier. It’ll bring back (double) visions of hot stage lights, dry-ice fog, feel-good times, and amplifiers cranked to 10-only this time, the experience will take place inside the confines of your own home.Описание: Filmed during a 2017 performance at Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort in Mt. Ready to rock out? Wait until you hear Mobile Fidelity’s digital remaster. Seldom has the balance between tough and polished, light and heavy, fun and reserved been better established and maintained. And what else can be said of leather-lunged vocalist Lou Gramm and guitar-hero Mick Jones save for the fact the pair combine for a legendary one-two punch, leading their mates through sensational melodies and swaggering leads. The band’s chemistry and performance needs to be on par with that of the material. Of course, great songs alone don’t make for great records. A terrific power ballad infused with woe and longing, “Blue Morning, Blue Day” features insistent harmonies and piano notes that grab you by the collar and doesn’t let go. The title track, inspired by New York Rangers goalie John Davidson getting whacked in the head by a hockey puck, spills over with double-entendre meaning, tough-cut riffs, and a rotating groove, not to mention a mystical keyboard refrain.Įqually memorable, and a permanent part of any radio station’s rotation, “Hot Blooded” is the ideal come-on, the group’s open-ended rhythm and dance-inspiring beats pouring with promise, salaciousness, and ass-kicking sexuality. The key to any memorable 70s rock record is a catchy single, and the quintet has several lying in the waiting. Synonymous with AOR (album-oriented rock), Foreigner essentially perfects the style throughout this concise, focused, down-and-dirty ten-song set. You may just find yourself investing in a new power amp to get every last degree of detail that’s been uncovered! Sure, you may have heard songs such as “Double Vision” and “Hot Blooded” countless times, but trust us, you’ve never really heard them (outside of an arena setting, stadium amplifiers blaring) like this. Mastered from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s collectible audiophile hybrid SACD of this longtime favorite classic-rock staple bursts with tremendous dynamics, soaring vocal timbres, bottom-end punch, and newfound instrumental separation. More than seven million copies and two Top Five singles later, the 1978 set still rocks with definite purpose. Overflowing with first-rate songwriting, lascivious hooks, and sing-a-long choruses, Foreigner’s Double Vision lays waste to conventional sophomore-release wisdom and went on to actually exceed the popularity of the band’s blockbuster debut. So much for sophomore jinxes that almost always go hand-in-hand with groups that explode onto the scene.
