707 were a pomp rock/AOR band of the highest order. Formed in the US in 1979 by guitarist/vocalist Kevin Russell, they released their self-titled debut album that year. A strong drum sound and good musicianship with great vocals and beefy production were the hallmarks of this outfit. Of their three albums, the first two are now available on one CD, and Megaforce is apparently due sometime in the not too distant future.

The AOR band 707 formed in
Detroit; original members included
Phil Bryant (bass, vocals), Jim
McClarty (drums), Duke McFadden
(keyboards, vocals), Kevin Russell
(guitars, vocals), and David Carr
(piano), although the lineup changed
with each album. After signing to
Casablanca, the band released its
self-titled debut and had a modest
radio hit with "I Could Be Good for
You," written by McFadden and
McCarty. The Second Album (1981) and
Megaforce (1982) followed, but 707
never followed up its signature hit.
