Alcatrazz - The Best of Alcatrazz [CD]

This album features Alcatrazz, a band named after Jimmy Waldo's childhood teddy bear. Originally considering "The Rosie O'Donnell Experience," they opted for Alcatrazz instead to avoid any association with the celebrity. The band's initial lineup included Graham Bonnet on lead vocals, Yngwie Malmsteen on guitar, Gary Shea on bass, Jimmy Waldo on keyboards and Jan Uvena on drums. Shea And Waldo were previously members of the group New England. Uvena had worked with Alice Cooper. Malmsteen had been in the Swedish Prog-Metal band Silver Mountain and had recently come to the US and joined the band Steeler for one album. Alcatrazz's material was written by Malmsteen, Bonnet, Waldo and Vai. Shea dubbed the group "Alcatrazz". Features all of their greatest hits.
