Red Vinyl LP!
Fourth Studio Album Featuring "Urgent", "Waiting For A Girl Like You" & "Juke Box Hero"!


4, also known as Foreigner 4, is the fourth studio album by British-American  rock band Foreigner, released in 1981 on Atlantic Records. Several singles from  the album were hits, including "Urgent", "Waiting for a Girl Like You" and "Juke  Box Hero".

The album was originally titled Silent Partners and later was changed to 4. In  1981, art studio Hipgnosis was asked to design a cover based on the original  title, and they developed a black & white image of a young man in bed with a  pair of binoculars looming overhead. The resulting design was rejected by the  band as they felt it was "too homosexual". The replacement cover for 4 was  designed by Bob Defrin and modeled after an old fashioned film leader. Hipgnosis  is still credited with designing the record labels.

The album marked the completion of the band's shift to hard rock, begun in Head  Games. Both Ian McDonald and Al Greenwood had left before the recording of 4. As  a result, all of the songs on the album are compositions by Mick Jones and/or  Lou Gramm. McDonald and Greenwood had played saxophone and keyboards,  respectively, and so several session musicians were needed to replace their  contributions, among them Junior Walker, who played the saxophone solo in the  bridge of "Urgent", and a young Thomas Dolby, who would later have a successful  solo career.
