I am just writing to say that once I eventually worked out how to use it, it is simplicity itself, and I am living proof that it is simple for blind people to use as well.

Without a shadow of a doubt I will be ordering all and any CD's that you bring out, it is the most perfect way of learning guitar lead that I have ever seen.

Finally, I would like to thank you for all the help I was given along the way, and hope that you bring out many more CD's. Thank you

Scottie

Foreigner

Foreigner is a unique blend of British and American musicians that made its mark in the history of classic rock with the very first album. It all happened in year 1977 when rock'n roll music was becoming less of an attraction because of the invasion of punk rock that saw the music industry reeling into doldrums without any major hits. Foreigner made a valiant effort to fill up the vacuum left behind by the break up of the Beatles and the absence of any other major upcoming rock bands. With gigantic hits like Feel Like the First Time and Cold as Ice, Foreigner proved that the whole world rocks with rock'n roll. Soon after, harder rocking bands like Aerosmith, Boston, UFO, Judas Priest and others came out for the resurrection of rock and invention of heavy metal music.

The group Foreigner was formed just about 3 decades back when versatile and experienced British musicians Mick Jones and Ian McDonald got together with four relative newcomers to the arena of big rock, British musician Dennis Elliott, and Americans Ed Gagliardi, Lou Gramm and Alan Greenwood. Within less than a year after getting together, they released their first album which was self titled "Foreigner" in March 1977. The album hit the billboard charts and within months had two top-ten hit singles. The imminent success of their debut album was a pleasant shock for everyone including the recording company Atlantic as well as the group members.

The group proved their talents once again when Foreigner was pushed into performing live concerts by Atlantic to promote the album. Without appropriate planning or practice, the group became the darling of fans during their concerts. They managed to establish their style of music in spite of lack of experience in playing on stage before thundering crowds. The group admitted very frankly when Lou Gramm said, "The problem at first was that we only had ten songs. When asked back by our audiences to do an encore, we had nothing else to play!" But the audiences couldn't care less and became Foreigner's ardent fans.

Foreigner recorded and released their second album "Double Vision" in June 1978 which was another big success with 2 more songs reaching the top ten singles while the first album was still on the national charts. There was no stopping and looking back. A year later their third album, "Head Games" hit the charts and produced two more hit singles in September 1979. The album sold 5 million copies in the U.S. alone. Three great albums in a row is an incredibly remarkable achievement that can only be matched by a few musicians.

The next album, 4 was appropriately named as the forth album with the group lineup reduced to four; Jones, Gramm, Elliott and Rick Wills. Released in July 2 1981, 4 remains Atlantic's best-selling album of all time. 4 also had Foreigner's greatest single "Waiting For A Girl Like You" which peaked at #2 for ten weeks of the five months it was on the national charts. The album has sold almost 10 million copies and is one of the most triumphant rock albums of all time. Foreigner's greatest hits (November 1982) followed by "Agent Provocateur" in December 1984 gave them another top ten single "I Want To Know What Love Is". The other albums include "Inside Information" (December 1987), Greatest Hits album "The Very Best and Beyond" (1992) and "Mr. Moonlight" in 1994 with yet another top ten single "Until The End of Time".
