Foreigner Shares Unreleased Track ‘Turning Back the Time’ From Upcoming Compilation

Foreigner shares unreleased song "Turning Back the Time" from compilation of the same name.

The upbeat and melodic track weighs in at just under three minutes, with lyrics about “the times I was growing up and the road that brought me here,” and how seeing the Beatles on TV “changed everything deep inside of me.” It also references “the double vision day,” a nod to Foreigner’s second album. I’ve been going through cassette tapes of demos; some I think don’t deserve to see the light of day.” Jones adds that he’s also finished mixing and mastering a solo album, Shelter From the Storm, that he hopes to release “at some point soon.” In the meantime, Jones, Gramm and their former bandmates are preparing for the Rock Hall induction, one of the most highly anticipated since Foreigner was long considered one of the shrine’s greatest snubs.
