30th Anniversary of the American Rock Supergroup’s most popular album Lean Into It
Limited Edition Box Set with 5 Individually Coloured 7” Vinyl Singles Includes the hits To Be With You and Just Take My Heart
First released in 1991, Lean into It, was the second studio album by the American rock supergroup of Paul Gilbert, Eric Martin, Billy Sheehan and Pat Torpey - Mr. Big. The band's breakthrough release - Lean into It peaked at number 15 on the Billboard album chart, while the single ‘To Be With You’ became the band's first and only song to hit number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow-up single, ‘Just Take My Heart’, was a Top-20 hit, peaking at number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The million-selling album, also containing the popular tracks ‘Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy’, ‘Alive and Kickin' and ‘Green Tinted Sixties Mind.’ Lean Into It shows that Mr. Big could also strip away all the flash, 7-minute solos and simply create well-written songs with rhythm, groove and good melodies, making the band one of the iconic new wave of progressive ‘musician’s bands’ who could play mind-blowing complicated riffs on their instruments at lightning speeds.
This is one of the evergreen albums of 80’s style hair band rock that transcends the years and 2021 is the 30th anniversary of the release. evoXS is releasing Lean into It - The Singles 7” box set, which includes four 7” coloured vinyl singles with their European picture sleeves: ‘Just Take My Heart (edit)’, ‘Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy (The Electric Drill Song)’, ‘To Be With You’, ‘Green Tinted Sixties Mind’, plus the bonus single ‘Strike Like Lightning’ from the movie Navy Seals, which has never previously been released on 7" vinyl.
