Wow, a pretty good legacy to have left behind.
Those are some great songs. It's amazing realizing an artists body of work when it's all said and done.
RIP.

Truth be known though it was Dennis Locorriere that was the lead singer and true talent of the band...

Went to see them at the U of Regina in the mid 70's halfway through the show the band got into a fight yelling and pushing, one of them packed up and walked out through the audience. Never was sure if that was part of the show it was a good time and good music RIP Ray.

Dr Hook
It was great tunes when I would jam the old under dash 8 track with the new tape, many many many years ago, when I would be taking the back roads home before sunrise. The good old "click click" of that fantastic band music......Priceless. RIP.

That’s where I discovered them as a child. Parents basement parties in McMurray in the 70’s...
