Oh My!
I guess I am not the only one that remembers
LeslieWest. But then again, not too many people remember
Mountain (JackBruce/CorkyLaing/FelixPappalardi).
Probably around mid-70s, in NY metropolitan area, when WNEW-FM radio first aired "
Paradise by the Dashboard Lights", bunch of us were cruising in a '63 Valiant.
Those days were a little foggy 'paradise' [wink, wink] behind our dashboard, for us teens. In the next 6, months we probably saw MeatLoaf about 5 times, NYC/NJ/L.I./OH. We'd always be crashing to the SRO sections as our own little mischief in concerts. The West Orange, NJ concert was our first live event.
Ellen Foley (she is 71 now) and MeatLoaf were near x-rated on stage, especially if you happened to be standing right below the stage.
Jim Steinman should also get much credit and a big R.I.P. to him as well (circa April 2021).
