Born & raised in a Rochester suburb, I've always loved these guys! In my opinion, they were never the same band after Don Maracle left, but I've got all their albums & I just love 'em all!
Yes you are right but they did open for REO back in the day if your a a duke fan you are forever still love their music today and every time they have had a reunion concert 10 to 12 thousand fans there to see Rochester rock band perform
I remember it being on MTV a LOT is why it seemed popular. I grew up near Rochester. Greg married my wife's cousin Marcie (for a year anyhow) and played at the wedding, which was very cool. Late 80's or more likely the early 90's.
Duke Jupiter opened for Shooting Star in 1982 in Cincinnati at an old theater downtown. After the concert, that theater was demolished. It was a beautiful place but old... awesome concert!
I NEED 2 TELL OUR STORY..MET THEM B4 THEY BECAME FAMOUS AT THE GLASS ONION SUMMER 1977. LOVE 2 FOLLOW-UP WITH ANYONE THAT HAD THE 1ST GROUP EXPERIENCE! RIP. GEORGE B. 🤗♥️😇🙏🥰😘
Saw them open for the Good Rats in Rochester many times and Rats opened for their reunion show. Always a great time, 2 Rochester staples late seventies to eighties
They opened for B.O.C. in Fayetteville Ark in ????? 1985? My friends were all punkers and didn't dig BOC. My Gfriend didn't either. Damnit I went by myself to that show!
Nah, apparently their biggest 'hit' was something else - "I'll Drink to You" (1982) #58 US "Little Lady" (1984) #68 US "Rescue Me" (1984) #101 US Maybe Little Lady got played a lot on the radio where you were but it wasn't a hit nationally..
They were always dismissed as a glorified bar band and did absolutely nothing sales wise, its amazing they made 7 or 8 albums when the highest chart position was 122. It sounds like I'm putting them down but I'm just giving the facts.
Yes, When I Read That many Albums That I had No Idea about Even Though I Lived thru that era, I Decided To Check out their other Songs which led me here, ... & Continuing 2 Listen
I saw Don Maracle playing at Frisco Railyard today and that man has tone for days! The only other person to truly hurt my soul with his playing and sound was Hubert Sumlin. I had no idea who he was until after the show when I started researching. Incredible musician!

Great years 1980 to 1986.

Defined an era.
We were so free.
Like the song says: try to make the feeling last.

Drummer Dave Corcoran on lead vocal on this song, one that he wrote. Dave had such a ballsy, bluesy voice!

Great! I should have done the same.
Yes, Go Your Own Path, As Others can Do! & Your own path lets U Meet New good People Doin The same
after earl jetty was let go and Donald maracle left... this band was never the same.
I get you, maybe in 1984 MTV hadn't quite usurped radio as the main driver of record sales...
opening act at The Bottom Line . . . awesome!
Righteous.
Would it be too much to ask that iTunes puts this album up for sale?
Nah, apparently their biggest 'hit' was something else -
"I'll Drink to You" (1982) #58 US
"Little Lady" (1984) #68 US
"Rescue Me" (1984) #101 US
Maybe Little Lady got played a lot on the radio where you were but it wasn't a hit nationally..
This one sounds a little like Eddie Money on rhe high notes.
