If you read album credits, you might recognize this little-known band's main man, Billy Steinberg, from the hit singles he's written for everyone from Linda Ronstadt to Cyndi Lauper and Madonna (and much more). Three years before he released the classic I-TEN album "Taking A Cold Look" Billy Steinberg started a band and named it after himself and the town in which his father owned a vineyard. They produced a full album, but only an EP got released on an indie label. A few of this tracks got recorded by Linda Ronstadt, Pat Benatar and Rick Nelson and became big hits. Now the entire album get released for the very first time and it's a super cool release crossing the borders between pop, AOR and new wave.
