Foreigner was formed in New York City in 1976 by Mick Jones, a British rocker formerly with Nero and the Gladiators, and Ian McDonald from King Crimson. They retained the then unknown vocalist Louis Grammatico and have since sold more than 50 million albums. Here is Foreigner performing live in 2002 with an orchestra and an enormous choir, the audience.
