Frehley's Comet (album) - Notable Songs

Notable Songs

"Into the Night" was a minor hit for Frehley, reaching #27 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1987. The song was originally written and recorded by Russ Ballard (on his 1985 album The Fire Still Burns), who also composed Frehley's Top 20 single "New York Groove".

"Breakout" is co-written with late Kiss member Eric Carr. Whenever Frehley performs this song live he dedicates it to Carr.

"Calling to You" is a re-write of a song called "Mega Force" originally recorded by the band 707 in 1982. Tod Howarth had been a principal member and songwriter with 707, and likely brought the song with him when he joined Frehley's Comet. Originally recorded as the theme to the motion picture Mega Force, the song had been 707's biggest chart achievement (#12 Billboard Rock Tracks). The "Calling To You" version by Frehley's Comet features altered lyrics, with Jonathan Cain's writing credit removed and Frehley's added. Interestingly, the Frehley's Comet album was released on Jon Zazula's apparently unrelated Megaforce Records.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or songs:

    In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail. From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.

    Music is so much a part of their daily lives that if an Indian visits another reservation one of the first questions asked on his return is: “What new songs did you learn?”
