dimension to her character's musical musings." S. Earl Statler, Los Angeles Sun.
REVIEW: TANE CAIN (AKA TANE MCCLURE)
Comparable to Pat Benatar, Tané Cain is an expressive pop-rock vocalist who should have hit big
in the 1980s but never enjoyed the commercial success she deserved. Those who heard Cain in
the 1980s compared her to Benatar more than anyone, although she denied sounding anything
like Benatar and insisted that her main influence was Grace Slick. The singer was born and raised
in Hawaii, where she sang with a Latin jazz band called Sweet Honesty for a few years before
moving to San Francisco in the late 1970s. It was in the Bay Area that she met and married
Jonathan Cain, who played keyboards with the Babys from 1976-1981 and joined Journey in 1981.
Tané Cain moved to L.A. with him, and she was 24 when, in 1982, she signed with RCA and
recorded her self-titled debut album, which her husband produced with Keith Olsen and did a lot of
writing for. Two singles were released, "Danger Zone" and "Holdin' On," and the LP had the
makings of an AOR smash. But surprisingly, Tané Cain didn't sell. The singer was dropped by RCA
and never recorded a second solo album, although she continued to play the L.A. club scene into
the 1990s. ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
