Fandango originally formed in 1976, when singer Joe Lynn Turner hooked up with guitarist Rick Blakemore, bassist Bob Danyls, with Abe Speller on drums, creating a prolific song writing partnership with keyboard player Denny LaRue. They were discovered by RCA Records whilst playing the local clubs in the tri-state area of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut, the same scene that gave the world Twisted Sister. Between October 1977 and March 1980, Fandango released four solid albums through RCA; ôFandangoö, ôLast Kissö, ôOne Night Standö and ôCadillacö. According to Joe Lynn TurnerÆs official biography, Fandango were, ôa band described as an eclectic mix of R&B, pop, country, jazz and melodic rockö. Despite some high profile slots opening for, among others, The Allman Brothers, The Marshall Tucker Band, The Beach Boys and Billy Joel, Fandango missed making a significant mark on the US charts.
