Sheriff was a Canadian rock band in the early 1980s, best known for their hit song "When I'm with You". ==Biography== The band was formed in 1979 in Toronto, Ontario and consisted of vocalist Freddy Curci, guitarist Steve DeMarchi, keyboardist Arnold Lanni, bassist Wolf Hassel and drummer Rob Elliott.〔(Freddycurci.com )〕〔http://www.allmusic.com/artist/sheriff-p20493〕 The band's only release was a self-titled 1982 album, that featured a Canadian Top 40 hit, "You Remind Me" as well as their most famous song, "When I'm with You", which reached #8 in Canada and #61 in the United States in 1983 and six years later was re-released and hit #1 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in the U.S. in 1989.〔http://www.billboard.com/charts/1989-02-04/hot-100〕 The band split up in 1985, citing internal tensions. Lanni and Hassel went on to form Frozen Ghost and racked up several hits in Canada, the biggest of which was "Should I See," which reached #69 in the U.S. Six years after "When I'm with You" had been a chart hit in Canada, Las Vegas DJ Jay Taylor began playing the song. KRXY DJ Gabe Baptiste also started playing "When I'm With You," and listener response was positive. As a result, Capitol Records re-released the song.〔(Toponehitwonders.com ) ''Retrieved 2012-01-05''〕 It subsequently became #1 in the United States in February 1989.〔 While Curci and DeMarchi made efforts to re-form Sheriff, a reunion was not to be. The lack of interest from other Sheriff bandmembers eventually led Curci and DeMarchi to team up with several former members of Heart to form Alias, who in the early 1990s had two popular singles, with "Waiting For Love" and their #2 success, "More Than Words Can Say."〔 Meanwhile, Lanni and Hassel continued to work with Frozen Ghost until they split up in 1993. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sheriff (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
