Paul Warren - Takin' Her Back (1980).mpg

Explorer was on top of the L.A. club band scene around the time of the Knack's "My Sharona." Fronted by former Temptations session man Paul Warren, this power pop group was featured on Wolfman Jack's Midnite Special TV show before they got signed an RSO record deal. Produced by British Peter Coleman, who was the engineer with the Nick Gilder/Pat Benatar/Knack records for pop producer Mike Chapman. This cocksure all Detroit-L.A. based hot rocker band had a level of intensity to be reckoned with in comparison to a seemingly passive Hollywood scene.
