In 1976, Mick Jones, former guitarist of Spooky Tooth and the Leslie West Band, started Foreigner with Lou Gramm, Al Greenwood, Dennis Elliot, Ian McDonald, and Ed Gagliardi. Together, the six members released two studio albums, but in 1979, Galiardi was replaced by Rick Wills while McDonald and Greenwood were fired in 1980. The quartet of Jones, Wills, Gramm, and Elliot released three studio albums as Foreigner before Gramm left in 1990. Without Gramm, the band released "Unusual Heat" in 1991. Wills and Elliott left later that year. Gramm returned in 1992 and appeared on the band's seventh album "Mr. Moonlight" (1994). He departed permanently in 2003. In 2009, Foreigner released its eighth studio album: "Can't Slow Down" and, in 2022, announced its "Historic Farewell Tour," which is scheduled to begin in the summer of 2023.
