Nice! That got me thinkin' bout Rick Derringer, and "whatever happened to..." So I went to wiki.
I figured Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo was about all I'd find, but he has quite a history. I didn't know he founded The McCoys (Hang on Sloopy) and he played guitar on...well, he toured with Ringo's All-Stars for a few years, he put out an album with Bogart and Appice, he played guitar on Total Eclipse of the Heart. There's a list on his wiki page that's quite impressive.
Free Ride was a standard rock song back in the day. Good guitar riff.
He should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just for Free Ride and Rock-n-Roll Hoochie Koo.
No room cause they gotta make room for those rappers. Public Enemy and shit.
Yeah, he's got quite a bit of history. Our mix of the song isn't as good as it should have been. For reasons, it came out the pipe a bit bass heavy. I'm not sure why, 'cause that was recorded like 3 years ago (shared first on November 1st, 2019).
