Ep. 40 - Dennis Locorriere (Lead singer Dr. Hook)

It's Only Rock And Roll Podcast

On today's episode of the It's Only Rock And Roll Podcast, we sit down with DENNIS LOCORRIERE, the voice behind a laundry-list of Top 40 hits released by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show (later shortened to Dr. Hook) between 1971-1985, including “Sylvia's Mother”, “When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman”, “Sexy Eyes”, “Sharing The Night Together”, and the inimitable “The Cover Of Rolling Stone”. He recounts the band's ability to shift from long-haired, free-spirited, wild live act, to a radio-friendly, soft-rock / disco-ish sound, and the continuing longevity of those gamut-ranging hits. We also cover working with iconic writer Shel Silverstein, Dennis' post Dr. Hook touring as a member of Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings, his experience meeting a Beatle, and having one of his songs covered by Bob Dylan! ------------------------------------------------ ֎ For more about DR.
