Tuff Darts

The band appeared at popular New York City clubs like Max's Kansas City and CBGB and featured Robert Gordon (vocals), Jeff Salen (guitar), Bobby Butani (guitar), John DeSalvo (bass), and Jim Morrison (drums).

After parting ways with Gordon, John Morelli (an Ian Hunter protégé'), replaced Jim Morrison on drums and the band eventually found new lead singer Tommy Frenzy (Frenesi).

In 1978, the group released their debut album Tuff Darts!, on Sire Records, produced by Bob Clearmountain and Tony Bongiovi, shortly before disbanding.

In 2009, Spectra Records released two albums worldwide, Here Comes Trouble and You Can't Keep a Good Band Down.

Jeff Salen, founder and lead guitarist of the band, died of a heart attack on January 26, 2008, at age 55.
