Late 1986 Tony Borg decided on the lineup for a new melodic, classic rock band. We recorded two songs; “Headstrong” and “I’ll Survive” at Studio Bohus in Dec 1986. Virgin Scandinavia signed the band and released those two first singles. In the meantime, while touring Scandinavia, we wrote the album. Virgin believed in Alien to appeal to audiences in further territories, and hence rewrote our contract into a worldwide deal! Late 1987, at ABBA’s Polar Studio, we cut three songs with producer Mark Dearnley (AC/DC, Def Leppard). One being “Only One Woman“, which went on to top the charts and sell platinum.
The B-side, “Somewhere Out There“, also got to #1 in the charts, for instrumentals!
