Three veteran English musicians and three Americans were formed in 1977 to Foreigner: Dennis Elliot had until 1972 shone in "If" by his brilliant drumming, guitarist Mick Jones came from Spooky Tooth and trades Ian McDonald was in 1969 both as a songwriter and as a flutist, saxophonist and Keyboardist the secret star alongside Robert Fripp in King Crimson. When they met on the Foreigner vocalist Lou Gramm to interpret melodic Hard Rock. Pumping US rock paired with pop melodies add to the appeal of Foreigner- debut. "Cold As Ice" combines heavy guitars with Sixties singing harmonies while "Woman Oh Woman" brings skillfully ballad tones into play. "Head Knocker", however, is again a die-hard rock and rollers. For those listeners who like love unpretentious, good-humored Rock!
