#BAD ENGLISH THE TIME ALONE WITH YOU SERIES#
In May, Bad English participated in a Memorial Day festival a half hour outside of Milwaukee dubbed The World Series Of Rock with Great White, Skid Row and Whitesnake. They opened for Whitesnake in the spring of 1990 as “Heaven Is A 4 Letter Word” stalled at #66. “Price Of Love” reached #5 in the US in early 1990 and was also a minor hit in Australia & the UK. Bad English was certified Gold in late 1989 and platinum four months later. “When I See You Smile” was the band’s second single and it topped the US pop chart that November, reached #4 in Australia, and was a minor UK hit. Their first single “Forget Me Not” almost reached the US top 40 that August. The group embarked on eleven months of touring with the release of their debut eponymous album in June 1989. After accumulating seven songs, a conference call between the band, producer Ritchie Zito and their A&R man led to adding songs written by outside songwriters like Martin Page, Mark Spiro and Dianne Warren – the latter contributing the ballad “When I See You Smile” (a song previously offered to Alias frontman Freddie Curci). However, he ended up officially joining the project and recruiting Wild Dogs drummer Deen Castronovo. Neil Schon (also of the then-inactive band Journey) occasionally stopped by the studio and offered to play guitar to help the band out. Cain had already been in touch with another ex-Babys member Ricky Phillips about ‘doing a band with the rock attitude of The Babys again’. When his manager suggested teaming up with a previous bandmate, he reconnected with ex-Babys Jonathan Cain (while Cain’s band Journey was on hiatus) backstage at a Heart concert. The term means ‘putting the wrong spin on a cue ball’.Īfter releasing four successful albums on his own, ex-Babys frontman John Waite felt the urge to front a band again. The band came up with their name while shooting pool between studio takes.
