A few unknown factoids about RD...

His real name is Rick Zehringer and he played on a number of Steely Dan tracks among other artists.

During the McCoy’s touring of “Hang On Sloopy”, they opened for Simon & Garfunkel in a small teen club here in Dayton. After their set, they stayed onstage and played behind S&G.

Hard to imagine how a “Hootchie-Koo” guitar could mesh with Paul Simon songs - great show, though!

I was at the record store the first day “All American Boy” came out. The store had a life sized cardboard cut out of Derringer from the album cover. “Hold” and “Jump Jump Jump” are great songs.
