  • The excellent track ‘Naughty Naughty’ was John Parr’s first major U.S. Top 40 hit record in the USA. 1985 he toured with his Band The Business as support act of TOTO.
    At the end of this tour, producer David Foster offered him to score the main title song for the blockbuster movie St. Elmo’s Fire. This catchy Rock-song was a worldwide chartbuster and John got honored with a Grammy Nomination.
    St Elmo´s Fire (Man in Motion) was the backing song of Rick Hanson´s “Man in Motion Worldstour”, 1985. Rick sustained a spinal cord injury and became a paraplegic. He circled the globe in a wheelchair to raise funds for charity.
    John Parr also wrote “Under the Raging Moon” for Rodger Daltrey and worked as a producer with Marilyn Martin, Meat Loaf, or Tom Jones. He wrote songs for several blockbuster movies, such as “The Minute I Saw You” (Three Men and a Baby soundtrack), “Restless Heart” (Running Man Soundtrack). He shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the music business, such as Tina Turner, Bryan Adams, Toto, Heart, Foreigner, Bonnie Tyler, Richard Marx and Journey.
