Connection

What's the connection between Chuck Berry and a song called"Hang on Sloopy"you ask? Well,let me tell you. Johnny Winter did a great version of Chuck Berry's"Johnny B. Goode". A guitarist with Johnny Winter by the name of Rick Derringer{real name Rick Zerringer} had a hit called
"Rock and Roll Hoochie Coo". Long before that Derringer fronted a band called The McCoys. The
big hit song."Hang on Sloopy." There you have it. I'll leave you with this. American Idol. Does anybody really care?
