Brooklyn post-electro trio Win Win – comprising Alex Epton (aka producer XXXchange), Chris Devlin and Ryan Sciaino – are set to release their second record, Double Vision, October 16th on Vice Records, but now you can check out the LP in its entirety. While the album still pulses with traces of the group's bass-driven, dance-floor ready origins (first single "Salt Days+," for example, or the steady synth thump of "Birdgun"), it confidently moves toward alternative rock on the riotous second half of "Birdgun," sparse tropicalia on "Landlopper" and simple classic pop on "Deadhorse Bay."

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
