Had no idea that Derringer’s fingerprints were all over so much of American pop culture! Wow

One of my favourite albums was Johnny Winter And... I was surprised by how busy he's been since those years. Nice video.

The McCoys were chosen by the Strangeloves (I Want Candy) to quickly record Hang On Sloopy before the Dave Clark Five, who the Strangeloves loathed, could. Bert Berns, owner of Bang records, the Strangeloves' label had written Hang On Sloopy and also Twist and Shout. The Strangeloves were touring with the DC5 and the McCoys opened for them in the Midwest. The backing track is actually the Strangeloves album version of the song and the boys were flown to New York to overdub the vocal. They could have played it but beating the DC5 to it required speed. Most bands who toured with the DC5 said they hated them except for Mike Smith who was a great guy.

Mike Smith was one of the best vocalist in his day. Dave Clark was the jerk.

Ronnie Brandon. Keyboards until 67,. I heard he left to get married. Great Band

Ronnie was already married when he left the band. Rick Derringer fired him without cause or explanation. One of the first of many mistakes that plagued Rick Derringer's career, forcing him to work well into his 70s.
