Giuffria (Hol) Music CD

Giuffria was an American rock band from Washington, D.C., formed in 1981 by Gregg Giuffria after his departure from the band Angel. Giuffria's sound was characterized by Gregg Giuffria's use of keyboards and synths, which played a prominent role in their music. The band's classic line-up consisted of Gregg Giuffria on keyboards, David Glen Eisley (lead vocalist), Craig Goldy (guitar), Chuck Wright (bass), and Alan Krigger (drums). Eisley had recently been vocalist for Los Angeles-based band Sorcery. Goldy had briefly been a member of hard rock/glam metal band Rough Cutt, while Wright had guested on 2 tracks on Quiet Riot's album, Metal Health, although not an official member at the time. Their self-titled debut album "Giuffria", notable for it's blend of melodic rock and glam metal elements, soon followed, peaking at No. 26 on the album charts, while spawning two hit singles, "Call to the Heart" (Hot 100 No. 15) and "Lonely in Love" (Hot 100 No. 57). The band was a special guest act for Deep Purple on the latter's 1984 reformation US tour and toured as opener on Foreigner's "Agent Provocateur" Tour, enjoying considerable success.
