No Parole From Rock 'n' Roll (1983) was the first album released by Graham Bonnet's Alcatrazz. It spent seven weeks on the Billboard chart, peaking at #128. Considered by many to be the best Alcatrazz release and launched Yngwie J. Malmsteen into a glittering solo career. Most famous for the single "Island In the Sun" and "Jet To Jet". Other notable offerings are "Hiroshima Mon Amour" for which a video was shot (an excerpt for which was seen on the Channel 4 TV progamme The Tube), "General Hospital" and "Incubus", a solo by Yngwie J. Malmsteen he continued to play during his solo career. It has always had a strong following in Japan and songs from which can still be found in Karaoke bars today.
