Teaze - "One Night Stands" |

|

"One Night Stands" was the third album released by Teaze on the Aquarius
Records label and the debut release for the band on U.S. Capitol Records
label. With the success of the live album, "Tour Of Japan", the Montreal
based band Teaze became one of the hottest Canadian bands of the late 70's.
For this US debut album all of the stops were pulled out by the band's
management. Myles Goodwyn, from April Wine, was brought in for production
and eight new songs were written by the band members for the album. The
songs were powerful hard rock numbers with intelligent lyrics and good
choruses.
The album had all of the right formula to make it a hit but
despite having all the right stuff, the timing was just not right. Disco
was dominating the charts, new wave music was becoming the current rage
and punk rock was rearing its ugly head. The music world in general was in
turmoil and commercial styled hard rock music was just not where "it was
at" in 1979 and the album became a commercial failure.

There was no single
released from the album and because of that, Teaze failed to attract the
attention it deserved. The failure of "One Night Stands" in the
USA prompted Capitol Records to drop the band from its contract midway
through the recording of a follow up album. Teaze shot at international
stardom had been dashed. The band was still signed to Aquarius in Canada so
there still was an outlet for the album they were working on which was to
be called "Body Shots".
This release by Unidisc Records features one
previously unreleased bonus track at a budget price complete with original
artwork.
