Time To Burn

"Time to Burn" was the second studio album by American hard rock band Giant. Vocalist/guitarist Dann Huff had proven his guitar-playing chops as a studio musician on hit albums and singles across the 1980s before starting a band with brother David Huff on drums, Mike Brignardello on bass and Alan Pasqua on keyboards. For "Time To Burn" the band was joined in the writing process on two songs by Jim Vallance and on four by Van Stephenson, the latter of whom also guested on background vocals in the studio. Huff had previously done guitar work on Stephenson's solo albums. This album was produced by Terry Thomas, who had previously produced albums for such rock notables as Bad Company and Foreigner. The album's most successful single was "Chained", which peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
