A British band that found radio success with 'What Love Can Be' and kept making records through lineup changes and controversy.
For the radio hit, 'What Love Can Be' still sounds exactly like 1988. If you want the later stuff, 'Ain't Crying for the Moon' gives you the idea.
Kingdom Come arrived right when rock radio was hungry for new bands with that classic sound. 'What Love Can Be' got all over the airwaves in 1988, and they followed it with albums like 'In Your Face' and 'Hands of Time' that stuck to their guns. Even after a break in the 2000s, they came back with songs like 'Ain't Crying for the Moon' that showed they hadn't lost the thread.
They formed in 1987 after Magnum ended, with Lenny Wolf up front. The self-titled debut and 'What Love Can Be' hit rock radio hard, then they put out a few more albums before taking a break in the 2000s. Wolf apologized for some remarks, and the original lineup got back together in 2009, releasing records like 'Ain't Crying for the Moon' in 2011.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
