I thought it was really nice of them to be there, there was no cover charge so they must have been there gratis. Thank you Skyliners for your wonderful music.

    To Chris Dolmetch........ This was recorded the day after we headlined a show at Radio City Music Hall back in the 80's. A DJ friend of ours ask us if we would stop by his afternoon event he was having on our way back to Pittsburgh and sing a few songs for his guest and we agreed. We literally just got out of our car, in our street clothes, and walked in and sang a few songs for the crowd and had a great time for the few minutes we were there. The group at that time consisted of Donna Groom, who is still with Jimmy, Bobby Sholes, Who has passed away a few years ago, Rick Morris, me, who sang with the Skyliners from 1981 thru 11994 and also sang again from 2010 thru 1013, and of course Jimmy Beaumont.
