Musical Interlude: Hang on Sloopy (1965)

The McCoys gave Rick Derringer one of his first hit records with 1965's "Hang on Sloopy".

Personal note. When I was in school, there was a time when a group of us would strap on some roller skates and cruise around the gym. More often than not, "Sloopy" was on the turntable, and this was seven years after it'd charted....



Of course, Derringer would go on to play with the Edgar Winter Group before launching his solo career.
