Dawn Patrol is the debut album by Night Ranger released in 1982. The band was named Ranger during the recording of the album. The first issues of the album were printed and ready to be shipped when it was discovered that there was a country band from California with the same name. The band decided to name themselves Night Ranger after the song that Blades had written for the album. The record company destroyed the copies with the band name Ranger.

Midnight Madness is the second album from Night Ranger, released in 1983. The album contains the band's best known hit, "Sister Christian", and became the band's highest selling album, selling well over a million copies in the US.
"Rumours in the Air" was featured in the film Sixteen Candles. In the film, it is played through Justin Henry's headphones and can be easily missed.
"Sister Christian" was featured in the 2009 remake of "Friday The 13th". It appears early on, during the sequence where the kids are wandering through the woods near Camp Crystal Lake, looking for a patch of marijuana plants.
According to a VH1 Behind the Music special, drummer Kelly Keagy wrote the song "Sister Christian" about his own sister. Though not credited, Alan Fitzgerald wrote some of the chord changes.
"(You Can Still) Rock in America" was used for a musical montage in the series finale of The Drew Carey Show, and in at least two episodes of the TV cartoon series American Dad!.

7 Wishes is the third studio album by the band Night Ranger, released in 1985 and produced by Pat Glasser.
The title of "Four in the Morning (I Can't Take Anymore)" describes the time of day Jack Blades wrote the song. In an interview with the Songfacts website, he explained, "Literally, I wrote that song at 4 in the morning. I mean, I woke up, and I had an idea, (singing) 'I can't take anymore, I can't fake anymore, it's such a hard time loving you. It also believed that Mötley Crüe's drummer Tommy Lee joined Night Ranger and did backing vocals on the song Night Machine.
