Following Journey's temporary breakup in 1987, guitarist Neal Schon and keyboardist Jonathan Cain teamed up with Cain's former bandmates in the Babys -- vocalist John Waite and bassist Ricky Phillips -- to form Bad English. Completing the lineup was drummer Deen Castronovo, who later joined Journey in the late '90s. Bad English, one of the last supergroups of the '80s, excelled in producing power ballads, with hits like "When I See You Smile" and "Price of Love" from their platinum-certified self-titled debut album released in 1989. However, their follow-up album, Backlash, failed to produce any Top 40 hits, leading to the band's disbandment shortly after its release.
