I say "sorta supergroup" because, as you can see from the above, the incomparable Mike Mesaros of The Smithereens is on bass (the other two guys were from the Del-Lords), and alas, I never got a chance to see them live, although they were pretty much a fixture in NYC for a couple of years.
BTW, "You Move Me" featured on a sort of mixtape CD I made in the early 'aughts entitled Great Lost Singles of the 90s, and I stumbled across the playlist the other day. Pretty cool stuff, and I suspect I'll be sharing more selections from it in the not-too-distant future. 😎
Dion has had one of the most varied and amazing rock and roll careers ever. The track rocks like a Mother-Fer! I was not even aware of this part of his career. Great share Steve.

It's good; coulda been great with a stronger hook.
ReplyDeleteRevisited Dion this morning -
ReplyDeleteAbraham, Martin and John
sorta sounds like Springsteen...not bad at all
ReplyDeleteThat is a great cd. Dion was, always, and is still cool.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately Dion got caught between his Doo Wop tag (early 60's) and the Beatles invasion. His catalog speaks for itself but he got caught between the cracks.His Doo Wop change never saw 4 Seasons success
ReplyDeleteGreat song! I saw them once in Philly at JC Dobbs. I remember it was a fine show, but not many people were there for whatever reason. Their loss!
