Mr Mister Backing Tracks – Broken Wings
Mr Mister was an American rock band based in LA and active from 1982 until 1990.
Formed in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1982, the band comprised lead vocalist and bassist Richard Page, guitarist Steve Farris, keyboardist Steve George, and drummer Pat Mastelotto. Prior to forming Mr. Mister, Page and George had collaborated on various projects together, honing their songwriting and musical skills.
The band is best known for its polished pop-rock sound that seamlessly blended elements of progressive rock and new wave, characterised by catchy melodies and lyrics. Their breakthrough came with their second album, “Welcome to the Real World,” released in 1985. This album spawned several hits, most notably “Broken Wings” and “Kyrie,” both of which reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 4 is the Official UK Chart.

Despite their initial success, Mr Mister struggled to maintain their commercial momentum. Their third album, “Go On…” released in 1987, failed to replicate the triumph of its predecessor. The band began working on a fourth album, “Pull,” but it was shelved as tensions within the group led to their disbandment in 1990.
Mr Mister’s influence persists in the hearts of 80s music enthusiasts, and their hits continue to receive airplay, reflecting the timeless appeal of their finely crafted songs.
During their hey-day, Mr. Mister toured with other popular acts including Don Henley, The Bangles, Eurythmics, Tina Turner, Heart, and Adam Ant.
