Mystic Foreigner

This album is nowhere close to what Lou Gramm sounds like at all. I found the material and content to be too syrupy and boring. The quality was not that good as well. I feel this is just an attempt to have a no name artist sell a record at the expense of the public and not authentic material. Personally I think Lou Gramm should sue this artist for realeasing material which is not sanctioned by his management which I am familiar with.

Lou Gramm and Foreigner fans will recognize these tracks from the 1970 release by one of Lou's former bands, Poor Heart. It's been released and re-released under various titles (Poor Heart, Stranger in a Strange Land, Mystic Foreigner). Unfortunately, the band utilized three lead vocalists, so then 19-year old Lou Grammatico was not prominently featured. That signature Lou sound is mostly absent here, though there are glimpses, particularly on "Won't Somebody Take Her Home." Fans of The Guess Who, Wishbone Ash and early Jefferson Airplane might find this an interesting musical time capsule, but the songs are not particularly strong. Those looking for pre-Foreigner Lou may find his mid-70s band, Black Sheep, more to their liking.

Some cheesy ripoff guy who recorded this crap in his basement, and then put the names "Lou Gramm" (which i'm pretty sure is not his real name) and "Foreigner" on the cover in hopes of gaining attention. I mean, this guy isn't even like a tribute or anything he's just using the name in order to gain some attention which he will never get. Essentially he is trying to use Lou Gramm and Foreigner's name ot get attention he doesn't deserve. One word for that LAME
