Oh yeah... another good find! DJ Burns was a singer from the Bay Area who manged to employ some very serious, luminous personalities to record this, his first late 80s demo. There is Jeff Burns on guitar who made a big name for himself as a member of Bay Area favorites Y&T. There is Gregg Rolie on keyboards; yes that Gregg from Journey (even though his name is spelled wrong on this tape). Plus, vocalist Kevin Chalfant is helping out as well. Kevin played along Gregg Rolie in The Storm aftre first breaking big with 707 in the late seventies! (Kevin even replaced Steve Perry in Journey for a while!) So what do you get here? Fantastic, dirty hard rock with lots of guitars and some cool, groovy keyboards. Four songs that rock along with a serious attitude. "Got My Eye On You" has this tingling incredible pop sensibility and should have been huge! The nasty vocals and hard driving guitars are killer! Must point out, this si not metal, but super cool heavy and hard rock and roll from some of the greatest masters of the San Francisco scene!!! The cover is printed on both sides with extensive credits; the tape is a band dupe and as originally sent out by the band's management.
