Yeah. Me too. I was mistaken. It wasn’t his wife after all. Sorry.
I always heard of Rick Derringer but I couldn’t tell you any song he ever did.
But Hang On Sloopy is a classic everyone knows.
Here’s something I didn’t know. From Weird Al:
I’m very sad to say that my friend, rock guitar legend Rick Derringer, has passed. Rick produced my first 6 albums and played guitar on my earliest recordings, including the solo on “Eat It.” He had an enormous impact on my life, and will be missed greatly. RIP
