Portland’s Quarterflash led by husband & wife Rindy and Marv Ross (they were originally called ‘Seafood Mama’) took the pop world by storm in the ’80s with 3 Geffen albums and 3 top-20 singles; “Hadden My Heart,” “Find Another Fool” and “Take Me To Heart.” . Even though Quarterflash harbors a definitive ’80s-pop sound, the rich saxophone and sulty vocals of Rindy Ross give this average-sounding chorus-and-bridge rock a slightly distinct edge. Their music may best be described as Blue Eyed Soul meets Pop Rock. Quarterflash certainly found a little niche with their distinctive infusion of jazz, funk, rock and sultry vocals. The song “Make It Shine” was included on The Gremlins soundtrack.
