LEGS DIAMOND - Town Bad Girl (Released: 1990, Metal Blade)

Taking their name from the 20's gangster Jack "Legs" Diamond these L.A. guys formed back in '77 by Michael Diamond (bass) and Jeff Poole (drums). With an original sound with reminiscences from Deep Purple during the 80's the band changed their style into a more melodic and AOR vibe that led the band to release this Town Bad Girl in 1990. The album didn't enjoy any success so the band decided to split 'till 2001 when the guys joined forces once again.
Despite the bunch of good musicians involved in this band they never reached stardome status. The band is still active though keyboardist Michael Prince is working as session musician with acts like Beyonce, Usher... while other members have their own musical projects.
