Hybrid Ice (1982) No Rules (1988)

Hybrid Ice is the debut album from the Pennsylvania-based rock band Hybrid Ice, released in 1982. Although not released on a major label, the album reached No. 5 on regional album charts in the US.[1] It contains the hit song "Magdelene," which received much radio play and was later covered in 1994 by Boston on their album Walk On.[2]

In 1984, Boston had asked to record Magdelene for what would later become their Third Stage album, Hybrid Ice agreed to stop sales of their own album. But the song didn't make it to a Boston album until 1994. Six years later, in 2000, Hybrid Ice signed a deal with Escape Records of England, and re-released the album (with Magdelene) on compact disc.
