Planet 3 - A Heart from the Big Machine (91)

Planet3 is a typical West Coast Pop group comprising a super guitarist Jay Graydon, a talented vocalsit Clif Magness and a good keyboard player Glen Ballared. Jay Graydon explains the aggresive and melodious sounds of this group by using the expression "Chiacago Meets Def Leppard". The recording of the first album seemed to be almost finished in 1989.

In the summer of 1990, their song called "I Don't Want To Say Goodnight" has been released in U.S.A. as a track of motion picture soundtrack album of "Navy Seals". But their excellent album was not released in U.S.A by the conflict with the Capital Records how to promote their album.
