Biography

With over 50 million sales to their name, and six multi-platinum albums between 1977 and 1987, Foreigner's place as one of the front-runners of the AOR genre is hard to dispute.

The band was formed when Mick Jones and Ian McDonald recruited Lou Gramm, Dennis Elliott, Al Greenwood and Ed Gagliardi. Their multi-platinum debut album Foreigner was released in 1977. It was an immediate hit with tracks… Read more in Amazon's Foreigner Store

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Foreigner Collection, July 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Platinum Collection (Audio CD)
This CD is a great compilation. It's got a lot of familiar Foreigner hits, but what really sets it apart are the tracks from Lou Gramm and some lesser known Foreigner material. The sound is exceptional as well. I don't know if there was any remastering done or not, but it sure sounds like it. A lot of these songs have never sounded better. It is pricey though.

4.0 out of 5 stars 14 Foreigner + 3 Lou Gramm = 1 good CD, February 1, 2001
By 
eveoflove (North York, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Platinum Collection (Audio CD)
Made in AUS in 1999, Serial# 7567-80949-2, Playing Time 73:22

This compilation features songs up to their "The Very Best... And Beyond" album (track 12). Foreigner sold millions of albums... If you listened to rock radio in the 80's you know (probably by heart) half of the songs on this CD.

I am somewhat puzzled by the track selection: I can think of at least great 40 songs to put on a CD, but they wouldn't all fit; so why choose 3 from Lou Gramm? I would have preferred a 2-disc set with 1 disc of ballads, 1 disc of rockers.

I'm not sure why anyone would buy this: I would have left out some of the songs to leave room for some others. Maybe some of those were very popular in Australia, where this disc was made.

If you don't own most of their albums, get "The Very Best... And Beyond" instead; and shame on you for missing out on these icons of the 1980's.
