  They say that the best engineers also make the best producers and Airplay's debut album best demonstrates that. Airplay are Jay Graydon and David Foster, two of the most in-demand producers/ session players of the 70's and 80's. By this point in their careers, they wanted to be try being the stars for once, so they got to work on a whole bunch of demos made for other artist and claimed it as their own. Most famously, Jay Graydon's song "After the Love was Gone" was given to the band Earth, Wind and Fire right before Airplay was released and it went on to be a mega hit in 1979. The true version of that songs appears here. The album absolutely rules if you love that late 70's/early 80's AOR that was dominating the charts at the time. It's a fantastic record and I think it's a shame that they didn't continue on as a group, but I'm happy they were able to continue their careers helping other artists bring out their best performances
