For legendary singer songwriter, FELIX CAVALIERE, making people feel good is primary to his illustrious 50-year career that includes the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Songwriter Hall of Fame, Vocal Group Hall of Fame, and Grammy Hall of Fame.
At an early age, Cavaliere joined The Stereos, and moved on to form The Escorts, was a member of Joey Dee and the Starliters, best known for their hit Peppermint Twist, yet, he is best known for his association with The Young Rascals, when he helped form the popular band in 1965 and topped Billboard Hot 100 in 1966. “Good Lovin’” with Cavaliere’s signature blue-eyed soul voice, The Young Rascals leveraged the hit for stardom. Signed to Atlantic Records and now called The Rascals, they followed suit with a string of hits like “I’ve Been Lonely Too Long”, “Groovin’” (No. 1 in 1967), “How Can I Be Sure”, “A Girl Like You”, “A Beautiful Morning”, and “People Got to Be Free” (No. 1 in 1968). In 1980, Cavaliere had a solo hit with “Only a Lonely Heart Sees”, which reached No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and No. 2 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
Jeff,
I’m no expert on music but I saw the show and really enjoyed it.
Jeff,
I am 70 years old. I was raised on The Beatles, The Stones and groups like The Rascals.
I went to the show and had a good time.
I will tell you, a couple of years ago I saw The Rascals at the Hard Rock with all 4 original members and the group that appeared at Coral Springs didn’t come even close to being as good.
You were right on the money when you said that something would be missing from this band’s sound.
