PAT BENATAR “Seven The Hard Way” /LP/

The sixth full-length studio album by American Pop-Rock singer.
The album debuted on the US Billboard 200 for the week of December 14 and peaked at number 26, spawning the Singles "Invincible", "Sex as a Weapon", and "Le Bel Age".
The Grammy Award-nominated single "Invincible" was produced by Mike Chapman and recorded for the soundtrack of the Matthew Robbins film "The Legend of Billie Jean", which, despite underperforming at the box office, became a cult classic to MTV fans in general. The song became commercially successful and was included on the album, despite its musical style differing from Benatar's at that time and more reminiscent of her earlier efforts. Benatar often commented at her concerts before performing the song that it "is from one of the worst movies ever made."
It was Benatar's last album to feature bassist Donnie Nossov, who along with drummer Myron Grombacher went on to play with Lita Ford on her breakthrough album, "Lita" (1988), and on the supporting tour. Grombacher would return to Benatar's band for her follow-up album, "Wide Awake in Dreamland", released after the three-year hiatus that followed "Seven The Hard Way".
"Seven The Hard Way" has been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
