Giuffria Discography

Giuffria was a rock band formed in the 1980s by keyboardist Greg Giuffria after leaving the band Angel (another favorite of mine).

Giuffria released two studio albums (Giuffria and Silk + Steel) and a live album/video called Live In Japan 1985.

They also appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Gotcha!

They were working on a third album but only got to the demo stage.

That album of demos, surprisingly, was released this year as The Unreleased Remastered Demos (Greg signed the CDs and Vinyl).

I still need to buy the live album and hopefully I’ll get that soundtrack someday, but I have everything else.

Like Greg’s previous band, Angel, Giuffria are another band I think should have been so much bigger.

Giuffria did have a couple of minor hit singles with the songs “Call To The Heart” and “Lonely In Love”, both from their first album.

Giuffria opened for some big bands, including Deep Purple and Foreigner, but unfortunately, they just never quite got to the top level of success.

They had all the tools.  Great musicianship and songwriting, their singer David Glen Eisley was incredible as well as their guitarist on their first album Craig Goldy (later in the band Dio) and all the musicians really.  And I really think the albums are really good, especially the first one.

Giuffria kind of sound of like Journey, but with a bit more edge.

So, if you are into catchy hard rock with great singing and playing, Giuffria is the band for you.

Greg later went on to form the band House Of Lords and ultimately became a multimillionaire because he invented a chip that’s in many of the slot machines you see and maybe play.  I’m serious.

Anyway, check out Giuffria.  They are awesome and should be more well known.
