On This Day: April 28, 1986 - 38 Special Releases Strength in Numbers
On April 28, 1986, 38 Special released their seventh studio album Strength in Numbers. The band continued to blend Southern rock with a polished 80s radio sound, creating an album filled with catchy hooks and tight production that fit right into the mainstream rock scene of the time.

Strength in Numbers featured popular tracks like Like No Other Night and Somebody Like You which helped drive the album up the charts. It reached number 17 on the Billboard charts and solidified 38 Special’s place as one of the top rock acts of the mid 1980s.

Fun fact: Strength in Numbers was the first 38 Special album to feature Max Carl who later became a full member and helped shape their late 80s sound even further.
