Lucky Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Katie, phil had lots of info on the Shirelles "Will You Love Me Tomorrow", if you can use any of it !! As for this week I'm going with two (gasp) 90's nominations! About as far apart in type and genre as you can get, but I like 'em. Waterfalls ~ TLC (wonderful R&B , with a great message) What Would You Say ~ Dave Matthews (probably my favorite 90's band) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a dork of the highest order. Anyhoo, here are my nominations. As always, I need to be YouTube'd, if possible.

OLD 55 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Since You Been Gone - Rainbow (1979) What a great array of talent passed through this Group. This was their first Big Hit, and it appears from the video that Graham Bonnet did the vocals. He later had solo Hits with 'Warm Ride' and my favorite Dylan cover 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue'. The other main vocalist in the Group was Ronnie James Dio who was "credited" with starting the fingers/hand formation. They're probably the two best vocalists that any heavy metal band could boast of. (Including either in AC/DC - sorry Ray). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
