Legendary rock band Foreigner was named in in reference to its Anglo-American line-up — and the band’s magical chemistry came from the special relationship between Mick Jones, a British guitarist, and Lou Gramm, a singer born in Rochester, New York.
Jones, Foreigner’s leader, was a brilliant songwriter. And in Gramm, he had the perfect foil — a voice with grit and soul, reminiscent of Free and Bad Company legend Paul Rodgers.
