Fairchild, USA


Fairchild - s/t. 1978 Flight.

Minneapolis based AOR styled progressive rock band. Strong overtones to the top acts of the era like Kansas, Boston, Journey and Styx - especially the latter. Though the album is private, it looks and sounds like a major label effort.

Priority: none (However, for those that love the classic 70's arena rock sound, this one is an all-timer.)

Very popular Minnesota band who were playing the bars locally around the same time as Chameleon (Yanni's band). Fairchild released three albums, the second 'Shadowland' was produced by James Walsh formerly of Gypsy. A winning spot on the syndicated 80s TV talent show 'Star Search' landed them a national contract with MCA subsidiary Gold Mountain. Horrific pop rock and the album predictably tanked.
