POISON
One of the releases by Stratavarious, “I Got Your Love” was one of the first 12-inch singles to feature two bands; the other was Poison (not the same as the glam-metal band of the 1980’s, Poison).
One other thing. Stratavarious might fill an annoying hole in the roster of the Under-Appreciated Rock Bands: Nobody so far has been African-American. I do know that Johnny Usry is black, as is Poison. Also, most of the people that Usry has worked with over the years are African-American: Besides the Three Degrees, they include Teddy Pendergrass, Lou Rawls, and the O'Jays; however, that is not true of Air Supply. I have no photos so far, and the music itself could go either way, so I am still not sure.
