Contraband (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Contraband was a short-lived supergroup/side project that included members of several famous rock bands from the 80s like Ratt, Vixen and L.A. Guns.
Contraband came to be after a Vixen and Ratt unplugged session on MTV. Schenker was a guest guitarist on that show.
The band released only one self-titled album in 1991 which received lukewarm reviews. The album was a commercial failure and the band disbanded shortly after, while touring with Ratt.
