Eddie is the only Rascal I haven't met as of today. Met Felix at the Mohegan Casino and I must say he is the nicest guy you could meet. I met Dino and Gene several years ago in there version of the Rascals here in Putnam CT. I love these guys so much . There music was there for me as I grew up.

Eddie and his new protegés have been performing around. The Anthony the lead singer is Eddie's cousin. Eddie helps and guides them and sings backup for them. They are about 13 to 15 years of age. I will post the next time they play in the Tri-state area. Maybe Eddie will get up and sing HOW CAN I BE SURE the next time.

So Who sanng lead On This song[7 other hits/] Eddie or Felix cavaliere????

[themaypang]

How Can I Be Sure was always Eddie ..... Groovin' was Felix. Felix and Eddie co-wrote the songs.

Eddie Brigati hasn't performed as a Rascal on a public stage more than a handful of times since the band broke up in the late '60s. To have him here, singing with his brother David and bandmate Gene in a small NYC club is an accomplishment beyond words. How Kate Taylor managed to get these guys playing and singing together, along with uber-musician Jimmy Vivino, should be the music biz story of the year. We salute you, Kate, and look forward to your next miracle!

I was so in love with this song when it first came out and still am. Eddie gives me chills

So cool to find this...GREAT song!

Eddie, you beautiful soul! You still sound so superb! If my prayers were to be answered, all 4 Rascals would reunite for a grande tour. But if that's not possible, I'm happy just knowing you're out there making this sweet music to this day. Please come to the Tampa Bay area sometime. Maybe sit in with Dave and Joey Dee when they play in Safety Harbor sometime. I'll buy you all dinner!

[elizabethjmendes]

I know where you can be found and always will.......in a special place in my heart!

I know this was a blast ,two of my favorite Rascals in one place ,I love stuff like this. Thank you wonderful people.

Great!!

@Inquiringmindz I agree 100%. The song is a classic and Eddie is a classy guy. I grew up listening to these guys and I believe they epitomize what the 60's were all about. What talent they had at such a young age! Yeah, The Beatles were great, but, it was guys and groups like The Young Rascals that made the era gel. Thanks, Rascals!!

Sweet! So glad to see you two (Eddie and Gene) together. As someone who grew up in the 60s and just recently had to say goodbye to my childhood sweetheart, I hope and pray there's some sort of reunion of all four... for those of us fans to whom your music meant so much. Whenever I hear "Groovin'" and "How Can I Be Sure" (and, my favorite, "Silly Girl"), I will will always think about those wonderful days when she and I were young. Please, guys... just please.
