Rick Derringer - 1983-11-29 - Cincinnati, OH (SBD) 

1983: In 1983, Rick Derringer released his 5th studio album, entitled Good Dirty Fun. He toured in support of he disc, including this show from November 29, 1983, 41 years ago today, in Cincinnati, as captured in this FM broadcast. But Derringer's album isn't the reason for this post. No, we selected this show because first, we needed something from 1983 to keep with this month's theme and second, it features Hang On Sloopy. The tune, recorded by Derringer when he was just 17 in 1965 while with the McCoys, is one of my guilty pleasures. The song actually went to #1 on the Billboard charts, but was knocked out of the top spot after just once week by a little known tune from a relatively obscure band - Yesterday by The Beatles! I actually heard the late, great Tom Petty play Hang On Sloopy live just a few months prior to this Derringer show, on April 1 1983 during at a concert at the Byrne Arena. By the way, Rick also breaks out a mean version of Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo!

Ringo Starr - 2010-08-05 - Rancho Mirage, CA (SBD)

In 1989, Ringo launched the first version of his All Starr Band tour, an ensemble where, as Ringo put it it, "everybody on stage is a star in their own right". While Ringo headlined these tours, singing his Beatles and solo material, his supporting band consisted of major players in the rock world, who would perform their own tunes, often with Ringo on drums. The 2010 edition of the All Starr's included Edgar Winter, Gary Wright, Richard Page, Wally Palmar, Rick Derringer and Gregg Bissonette. This sounboard recording captures Ringo and his friends in Rancho Mirage onAugsut 5, 2010, a dozen years ago today.

No, we choose this show for the following 3 reasons: first, we needed something from 1983! Second, we neeeded something for November 16 is keeping with our this day in history theme,  And third and most importanly, becuase it features Hang On Sloopy. The tune, recorded by Derringer when he was just 17 in 1965 while with the McCoys, is one of my guilty pleasures. The song actually went to #1 on the Billboard charts, but was knocked out of the top spot after just once week by a little known tune from a relatively obscure band - Yesterday by The Beatles! I actually heard the  late, great Tom Petty play Hang On Sloopy live just  a few months prior to this Derringer show, on April 1 1983  during a show at the Byrne Arena. By the way, Rick also breaks ou a mean version of Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo!
