I am a massive Rick Derringer fan and have been since the mid 1980s. I have around 15 Rick Derringer cds in my cd collection many of which are rare and hard to obtain these days. Back in 1991 Rick was on the
'Night of the Guitars' package tour in the UK along with a number of other 'axe merchants' such as
Robin Trower, Jan Akkerman (of Focus)
Laurie Wisefield (of Wishbone Ash)
Ronnie Montrose and half a dozen other 'named' guitar stars and after the gig at the Town And Country club in Kentish Town in north London I approached
Miles Copeland the manager of the whole thing and asked him if I could meet
Robin Trower which I did for about 5 minutes and that was cool but sometimes I wish I had asked to meet
Rick instead no disrespect to
Robin Trower dudes.
One
Rick Derringer recording I have been after since the 1980s is a recording named
Good Dirty Fun which I originally had on vinyl plus it's 12in 4 track EP neither of which has ever appeared in the UK anyway it appeared on a Canadian record label called
Passport Records from memory.
