Quarterflash

Quarterflash had a massive hit in 1981 with the half-rock/half-synth pop hybrid "Harden My Heart." The band went on to chart several more times and was a fixture on MTV during the first half of the decade. Led by the singing of Rindy Ross and bolstered by an ever-present saxophone player, Quarterflash were one of several groups using the synth/sax/female vocals formula to great success.
