Originally released in 1984, the curiously named Oakland based Billy Satellite may not have set the charts on fire but did manage to register high on the AOR Richter scale. Led by the supremely talented Monty Byrom (who went on to form successful country rockers Big House) and featuring super hot guitarist Danny Chauncey (later to join .38 Special) the band enjoyed a moment in the spotlight when tracks such as ‘Satisfy Me’ and ‘I Wanna Go Back’ (covered successfully in 1986 by Eddie Money) achieved wide spread airplay. Sadly, like so many other artists, the initial blast of enthusiasm was not sustainable leaving BS floundering amidst a sea of competition, tied to a label unable to focus on their strengths and accomplishments. Although the band’s initial success was severely frustrated, their legacy, over the years, has continued to grow with many AOR fans citing this album as one of the greatest records of its kind. Time, we think, to take another listen to this bonafide melodic rock classic.

24-bit remastering from original source tapes, 4, 000 word story of the making of the album by Dave Reynolds, exclusive interview with Monty Byrom, previously unpublished photos, all spread out over a super 12 page full colour booklet.
