Slade has never really been on the radar in the U.S. but a totally different story for the 70's rockers when it comes to the U.K.Slade known as a glam rock band have more than 30 albums in their catalog, yet tough to establish ground in the U.S. but yet bands like Cheap Trick, Def Leppard and Queen have considered them a strong influence to their direction.

The exception being their Top 20 single from 1983, "Run Runaway" they've never been able to get any traction with the U.S. audience.

Only two of the original members of Slade Dave Hill (vocals/guitarist) and Don Powell (drums) have been with the band since forming in 1965.

Their essential album is titled : 'Slayed?'
