Bio:

Blue Tears is an AOR/hard rock band from Henderson, Tennessee, USA, that was formed in 1983. The band split up in 1993 for the first time, was re-activated in 2005 and finally split up in 2009.The band enjoyed some short-lived fame in the late-80s. However, the group failed to find significant commercial success, due to the wave of alternative/grunge music, and the group disbanded in 1993 as the members became involved in other projects. The band reformed in 2006 and released a new album but was permanently dissolved after lead singer Gregg Fulkerson died on April 14, 2009.

Album:

One of the greatest 1990 AOR albums, BLUE TEARS self-titled official debut album “Blue Tears” has been digitally remastered by Bad Reputation Records. Founded by songwriter Gregg Fulkerson, the aim for this album was ‘big, bold, bombastic sound production’, not far from Def Leppard’s ‘Hysteria’, however Blue Tears is much more AOR.This is ’80s Arena Rock of the highest order.The first iteration of what would become Blue Tears began in the fall of 1982, when Fulkerson (vocals, guitar), was a senior at Chester County High School and Mike Spears (bass), Bryan Hall (rhythm guitar) and Phil Johns were students at Freed Hardeman University. The band was originally called Misfit. Through the next several years the band had a couple of name changes (NonStop, Sahara) and several vocalists and drummers came and went.The band made several recordings in Gregg’s basement, but the first official recording was of their song “Stay With Me” which was recorded at the Castle Recording Studio in Nashville, TN. “Stay With Me” received much regional radio station airplay, and peaked at #2 on 92.3 FM Jackson, TN.The combination of radio airplay, devoted fans and multiple sold-out concerts at the Paramount and Malco theatres caught the attention of record industry professionals. One of these recordings landed on the desk of a Los Angeles-based record company.They signed a recording contract with MCA Records soon after.The band also changed their name to Blue Tears just two months prior to releasing their debut album. Blue Tears was made up of founding members Gregg Fulkerson, Mike Spears and Bryan Hall. They were re-joined by Charlie Lauderdale on drums.The debut album was released in June 1990 with lead single “Rockin’ With the Radio” getting a music video. A second single, “Innocent Kiss” also received heavy promotion. The album was originally titled “Thunder in the Night” and was promoted as such but was eventually changed to a self-titled release.Unfortunately, the band was dismissed as just another glam metal act in the genre’s fading wave. Blue Tears entered the studio in 1991 and banged out new tracks for a second album. However, Rock music & industry in America started to change and MTV’s got re-vamped, so MCA decided to not release the follow up album.A great slice of hugely-produced ’80s music, with very good songs. Then don’t make albums like this anymore.
