Oh, I definitely agree there. As far as lead singers in rock bands...that guy had it. For sure. To me, there are a few in rock history that really stand out....Jim Morrison. Marc Boland. Robert Plant. I think Micheal Hutchence was in a league with those guys.

Many years ago we watched a somewhat cheesy but entertaining show called Rock Star in which INXS was seeking a new lead singer to replace Michael Hutchence. A singer named JD Fortune ended up winning and actually received a recording contract with INXS. After brief success, he became homeless. He suffered from depression and addiction. I think he has published a book. Here is his one "hit" song, accompanied by Dave Navarro.

Yikes! I had not known that. Just goes to show that Hutchence WAS a vampire, and was cursing that guy from beyond the grave...

Up until 3 yrs ago, I lived in the City. Every year we had a block party. A DJ lived on the same block and he always started by playing songs with all the girls' names in them'.Besides the one he sang with my name in it, I really liked this one.

Dion & The Belmonts was one of my favorite rock/Doo Wop groups back in the early days. I liked him best when he was with the Belmonts, but groups splitting is nothing new. The Belmonts wanted to stick to singing harmony, but Dion wanted to go a different way, so he left the group.

He tells a great story about the night the music died in Clear Lake, Iowa after their Winter concert on YouTube.
