Winger: A Success Story In The Making!
Christine Natanael, Rock Scene Spotlights, July 1989
IN THE SUMMER of 1988 an album was delivered to my house from the offices of Atlantic records. Now, this is nothing out of the ordinary, as I regularly receive lots of records and stuff in the mail from record companies, but on this particular day I received a debut from a band called Winger.
