Who remembers these?

It doesn't ring a bell, but I'm not as "up" on things as I once was. I took a brief look and didn't spot the record. Time to re-organize them I guess.

Apparently the band has reformed and the members are still living off that hit. Looking at a more recent photo, below, shows how silly it can be to try to keep the past alive.

What, you don't think these guys look like they rock?

I am surprised that a band could live off of one hit.

My brother-in-law had a few hits and has had periods in his life where he had lots of money and when he has been poor as a churchmouse. He had a manager that really made a lot of money, more than Ronnie, when his first album went platinum.

Of course, he did marry well two years ago. It doesn't hurt to marry rich.
This is his fourth marriage and he doesn't marry them all.

I found lots of his big hits on You Tube and had not even thought of looking there until this post. Pretty cool.

Ronnie discovered Sammy Hagar and taught him how to move, how to milk the audience, then Sammy went on to Van Halen. The two have reunited in recent years, since 2003, to tour the country with their platinum hits. I haven't seen Ronnie perform live since his wedding two years ago, when he played the above tune, Town Without Pity at my request. It is not one that he wrote, of course, so he would rather not play this one, but it is my favorite.

Rick and Ronnie are very close brothers, though Ronnie is 7 1/2 years older. Rick was thrilled to see Ronnie on these clips.

Thanks for posting this site again. I love it!

I think they look pretty rockin'! Hey, musicians don't get older, they just get better. Seeing Mike Love a few years ago at Epcot was kinda sad for me. He is looking his age. We saw Edgar Winter in person last year and he looks very, very young, much younger than his 65 or so years. I don't know how old he actually is. We met him backstage because Ronnie was in his band and they are great friends. Pretty exciting for us. We met him before, many years ago, before Frankenstein hit big. They were playing at McNichol's Arena, along with another more famous band, but I cannot remember who that band was??? We weren't there for that one.

Talk about co-incidence, I got into the car after my last post here and on the radio was the Zombies' "She's not There".

Well I have to say I remember these as well Our golf club is going to be celebrating it's 50th anniversary in 2007 so we're having a New Years Eve party with all music from the 50's and 60's. Everyone is supposed to dress the same way they would have back then. I'm not sure if I remember that part. Will have to find some old pictures! Anyway it should be a great time
