Led by lead singer Brian Connolly, the band's playful lyrics and performances paved the way for the glam band sound. The band's last chart appearance stateside was later in 1978 when "California Nights" stalled at #76. This coincides with the departure of Connolly, whose struggles with alcoholism were creating significant strife in the band. Connolly passed away in 1997 at the age of 51.
"Teenage Rampage" is a cut that didn't make it onto the US charts but is just as representative of their trademark sound as anything else.
