exclusive the fully remastered, on CD for the very first time (a limited numbered CD release of 1000 only) of one of the long lost records of the ‘80s: L.A. based LIFE BY NIGHT’s self-titled debut album. This long lost much sought after LP is finally getting some way overdue recognition.
Formed by lead vocalist and bassist Tom Croucier (brother of Ratt bassist Juan Croucier) Life By Night had the songs and the look, but sadly not the traction, thanks to the usual story of music business politics to take things any further than they did.
In the mid-Eighties Life By Night recorded their debut album with Richie Zito (Heart, Bad English, Tyketto) behind the production desk. The songs were melodic AOR with poppy overtones and it was all set to be released when the label at the time just dropped them.
