I liked Keel. They were nothing special as a band, but they could play and I think they could have been bigger than they were. Kinda like a "poor man's Dokken" if you will.

For anyone interested I'm thinking of starting a "Rockin' 80s" ping list!!

Useless 80s music trivia fact:

Scandal's "Goodbye to You," gets decent airplay on many stations today, esp. during "80s hours" and such. In fact it almost equals "The Warrior" in airplay. However, while "Goodbye to You" is a catchy, well known song, it only reached #65 on the Billboard Hot 100. "The Warrior" hit number 7.

According to Smith, who helped to change rock music as a punk singer and poet in the 1970s, major

Who the heck is Patti Smith, and what did she ever change????

Ron Keel started out in the band Steeler with Yngwie Malmsteen. After Keel he did a few country records, which I haven't heard, but are probably better than most so-called 90s "rock".

I love Malmsteen. I haven't really heard Steeler but I assume I'd like them, just can't ever find anything by them.

Alcatrazz was a good band, too.

Keel's country stuff ain't bad, but then again I'm not a country fan so what do I know!!

That's not a woman, that's a MAN, baby!

My dad says that she was dissin' Republicans even before nobody knew who she was, which was right before the current generation of people who don't know who she is. Or maybe it was the one before that.

"Pretty good, but she's no "Candy Slice"...."

LOL! How true. Gilda Radner did Patti Smith better than Patti Smith.

Yet another plagiarist walks in the shoes of Michael Moore and Sheehan, who stole their talking points from the DUngHeap.

DU'ers are becoming seriously and dangerously deranged. In addition to the following I saw another post there hoping that New Orleans' looting punks have a "rocket launcher" to shoot down Air Force One.

Where is the Fresh WATER YOU BASTARD? You are NOT HUMAN.

I've heard a few Steeler tracks on online radio, good hard rock. I'll listen to country if it's on, it's better than what they call music these days.

"She collaborated and helped write a few BOC tunes, and has been "with" Alan Lanier (BOC Guitarist) since the early 70s"

That must explain where BOC got "more cowbell"...they borrowed the one she had hung around her neck...

I was just reading this thread to see if anyone was going to comment on Gilda's take on Patti.
Didn't Gilda strike a pose that mimicked Patti's album cover as she(Gilda) combed her 'pits.
I DO remember this skit as being hysterically funny.
