Who was/is Jan Houston? 

She is the a major voice for this hard rock outfit. I think the others sang as well but you can’t help but hear her voice cut through.

I love that there was an explosion of female led rock bands in this era and we rarely talk about them outside the girl pop of The Go-Gos and Pat Benatar and Debbie Harry. 

But there were more. And Vizion made a play for “Hard Rockers of the 80s”. But, the metal heads in the parking lot probably weren’t buying what they were selling.


Too bad. It’s a solid example of rock from the era.

Someone on YouTube wrote that it’s like Tina Turner fronting Priest and that’s a pretty good assessment. 


But “Inside Light” is pretty terrible.
