1) Lion was an 1980s hard rock/heavy metal band formed in 1983, originally as Lyon, featuring Doug Aldrich and Kal Swan. They released two studio albums, 1987’s ‘Dangerous Attraction’ and 1989’s ‘Trouble In Angell City’. They were best known for their”Transformers” theme song from the 1986 movie. Their debut song “Love Is A Lie” featured in Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984), and their songs “Never Surrender” and “Power Love” in The Wraith (1986). The band would disband in 1989 after one of the members broke his neck in a motorcycle accident. However, Lion would return to update the Transformers theme song for the new release of the remastered DVD.

8)Lion was a jazz style rock band from Birmingham, UK. After leaving Judas Priest, AL Atkins formed Lion. The band was Bruno, Jim Perry (drums) Harry Tonks (guitar) and Atkins on vocals and recorded our first song called ‘Reminiscence Part 1 and 2’. I don’t think the audience appreciated us though with this style of music and we died on our arse one night opening for The Heavy Metal Kids at Birmingham Town Hall. We soon realized we were trying to be a bit too clever for the audience and needed to get back to the basics of rock and roll and after our drummer Jim left we replaced him with Pete Boot from Welsh band Budgie and out went my conga drums and replaced them with more speakers. We recorded just the one single called ‘Journey’ and ‘On The Wheel’ which we recorded at ‘Gentle Giants Petal Studio’s’ up in Leeds and things were looking good but along came the punk explosion and that’s all every talked about and although we rode the storm we never got the recognition I thought we deserved and around ’78 we disbanded.
