themusicaddict's Top 106 Greatest 80's Bands #35, Loverboy: Their Best 80's Era Songs Part 1: #27-#19 (Finished July 4th, 2017)

Hello,

I wish I had more time to blog, but I have to earn a living. Anyway the next band on my Greatest 80's Era bands is Canadian rock group, Loverboy. The Mike Reno led band had several big hits in the 80's era. The last I heard they are still touring and recording. Their last CD is 2014's "Unfinished Business", but it seems their business might be finished. They haven't released another CD since then. This blog morphed into Part 1 of my Loverboy countdown blogs.

The key members of Loverboy over the years:
Current members
  • Mike Reno – lead vocals (1979–1988, 1989, 1991–present)
  • Paul Dean – guitar, backing vocals (1979–1988, 1989, 1991–present)
  • Doug Johnson – keyboards, backing vocals (1979–1988, 1989, 1991–present)
  • Matt Frenette – drums (1979–1988, 1989, 1991–present)
  • Ken "Spider" Sinnaeve – bass, backing vocals (2001–present)
Former members
  • Scott Smith – bass, backing vocals (1979–1988, 1989, 1991–2000; died 2000)

A brief band introduction is coming. I have 77 Loverboy songs on my iTunes. As of yet Loverboy hasn't been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but I'm sure that's only a matter of time. This series of blogs covers 1980's "Loverboy" to 1987's "Wildside".
