I lived in Rockville in the early to mid 60's and had a garage band. Nils was dating our drummers older sister...long story short...he peeked in to our practice session (torture) and smiled. Later we found out who he was and were all dumbfounded.
Known Nils since we both were in high school in Montgomery County, Maryland. First Grin album still among my Fav15 all time. This reunion on "Nils Lofgren Day" was fabulous. The dual solos with his brother--playing each other's guitar--always a hit. "Moontears" always got the crowd dancing after the moving "Like Rain." Check out the 1979 version also on You Tube. Nils in the R&R Hall as a solo artist is overdue!
4844847 is right, Nils is a great guitarist but a lousy singer, he always had a weak voice. That said I was a big fan in the 70s, especially his first two solo LPs.
i see Nils every time he comes to london, and thats quite a lot, met him to, half a dozen times and got every album he has ever put out. One of the very best guitar players you will ever see!
