Blackjack - great heavy metal band (rock, album, Kiss, vocalist)

Who knows of the great late 70s heavy metal band Blackjack? They were a multi-talented band who released two great records, the best of which was their eponymous album "Blackjack". I'd advise anybody to check them out. The band was a superband of sorts, consisting of a collaboration between multi-talented extreme metal vocalist and song-writer Michael Bolton (who went on to huge solo success later on), who at the time was using his original name Michael Bolotin, and one of old school rock's greatest guitarists, KISS's ex-lead Bruce Kulick. Anyway, their eponymous album is simply brilliant heavy metal music, possibly some of the best old school heavy metal that there is out there. Definitely worth checking out if you have even a PASSING interest in heavy metal.
