    I never stop listening to him!! He and his band were doing tours, in the 70's. They played at a school
    I took my baby son. I actually got to meet them. I wanted all their autographs. Gary held my son for me!!!!! My grown son is still talking about that. They were the greatest!!!

    Songs were short, fun and had meaning back then! We could actually understand the lyrics these artists were singing. We sang along with them, too, because the 1960's / '70's were a FANTASTIC time to live !!

    He was drafted into the army in about 1967 or so and went to Vietnam, and when he came home, music had changed and nobody wanted to hear his kind of music any more, thus ending his career. His Dad could probably have pulled some strings to get him deferred , but his being a man of character, he went into the service and did the right thing. I was a teenager in the Sixties and his music made a huge impression on me that lasts to this day.

    This song is totally dedicated to my "love of 1966" - Loretta. All the lyric words were just right to me as well as the melody. I was around 16 when this song was playing on the rock stations. Oh! the sweet memories!

      "This Diamond Ring" was my first favorite song. I thought about it when I was in the seventh grade in junior high school. However, I heard this song, She's Just My Style," before 1965. This rock and roll music were quite cute.

I also had a very fast 62 Dodge Polaris 500. Ran flat out fast. 140 m.p.h. Cops never caught me. The girls did in my cars it was glorious. Duck tail hair. Went to the local Cantine to dance and plug the juke box 3 plays for a quarter. Danced until it closed for the nite. God bless you and the group. Jeff Peters
