  5.0 out of 5 stars A Rockin’ Box Set and a Great Price!

  Foreigner was an British/American rock band from the mid 70s that reached their peak in the mid 80s. With AC/DC styled riffs and Led Zeppelin influenced swagger the band were a big live attraction too. This set 7 CD box set offers (mostly) remastered versions of their Atlantic albums with bonus tracks. Often put in the AOR box or soft rock bucket, mainly because of the gentle Girl Like You and masterful, slow burning I Want To Know What Love Is, surely one of the best song-A-Longs ever, I must say there’s some ass-kicking riff heft here that easily pushes the Harder Rock arena. This set is ideal for those with worn out LP copies that may want to upgrade to the digital domain or those that like to get their teeth into a bands catalog all at once. There is another studio album that’s not included here but that’s just a minor issue. For the price, you simply can’t go wrong. As like most rock bands that crossed from an organic ensemble in the 70s to the MIDI locked digital 80s, you’ll find synths and sequencers on Agent Provocateur (1984) and Inside Information (1987) but didn’t every other rock band do that back then? In an nutshell, if you like Foreigner this is for you!!!
