LE ROUX hailing from Baton Rouge, Louisiana are without a doubt among the finest bands in the AOR (Adult Oriented Rock) genre. Their sixth Album So fired up is their best outing ever. New arrived Singer Fergie Frederiksen gave the band an extra boost, both vocally and also in the songwriting departement. They scored a minor hIt with Carrie’s gone from this album, but otherwise the future did not look so bright for them. After this giant album, Frederiksen left (to join Toto later), the band lost their contract with RCA and broke up subsequently. But the songs are still here today. You can order your copy of this hard to find gem directly from Bassist/Producer Leon Medica via their website www.laleroux.com. Best tracks: Turning Point, Lifeline, Yours tonight. Released in 1982.
