Winger

Kip Winger transitioned from his work with Alice Cooper to form this group of musicians capable of complex instrumentation. The release gained significant attention due to the popularity of the single Seventeen, which provided a focal point for the late eighties rock scene.

Calculated arrangements and polished recording techniques distinguish this debut from the grittier bands of the Sunset Strip. The music stands as a representative example of a time when musical craft and commercial appeal functioned as the primary standard for heavy metal.
