Winger : Winger (Expanded Edition)

AND JUST
WHEN I THOUGHT
SHE WAS COMING TO MY DOOR
SHE WHISPERED SWEET
AND BROUGHT ME TO THE FLOOR

 Winger

 is the debut

 studio album

 by American

 Rock Band

 Winger

 The album was

 released through

 Atlantic Records

 in 1988 

and was 

produced

 by Beau Hill.

Background

The music was 

radio-friendly,

 but with a 

progressive twist.

 The lyrics, 

however, 

were typical 

of the age

 and genre.

The name 

"Sahara"

 appears in the

 lower right

 hand section

 of the

 album cover. 

The band initially

 wanted to call themselves 

"Sahara", 

but that name 

was taken by 

another band

 at the time.

 Though they

 ultimately chose

 the name

 Winger, 

"Sahara"

 remained on

 the cover.

A number of radio 

and video hits 

were extracted 

from the album, 

including 

"Headed for a Heartbreak" 

and

 "Seventeen",

 peaking at No. 19 

and No. 26

 at the

 Billboard's 

single chart. 

On February 11, 1989, 

the album peaked at 

number 21 

on the 

Billboard 200,

 and after that stayed 

on the chart for

 63 weeks. 

It achieved 

platinum status 

in the 

United States 

and went gold

 in Canada

 and Japan.

In support 

of the album, 

Winger toured 

for over a year with

 Bad Company, 

The Scorpions, 

Cinderella, 

Bon Jovi, 

Poison, 

Skid Row 

and

 Tesla.

Promotional videos 

were shot

 for the four singles

 "Madalaine",

 "Seventeen",

 "Headed for a Heartbreak" 

and

 "Hungry".
