Today I want to congratulate Gene Cornish on his 80th birthday. He is a Canadian-American guitarist and harmonica player and an original member of the popular 1960s blue-eyed soul band The Rascals (initially known as the Young Rascals). From 1965 to 1970, the band recorded eight albums and had thirteen singles that reached Billboard’s Top 40 chart. In 1997, as a founding member of The Rascals, Cornish was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
I had almost forgotten about this group when I happened to see it was his birthday. They had one song in particular that I remember very well. This brings back good memories!
