Tommy Rock - Dancing The Night Away (1979).mpg

Signed by The Runaways -svengali and original Bad Boy Kim Fowley in the seventies, Tommy Rock is here to be heard for perhaps the very first time. Some of you may have listened to DREAM ROCKER on the recent YELLOW PILLS: PREFILL CD (The Numero Group) and heard the two songs he wrote or co-wrote for Randy Winburn: "Somebody Else's Girl" and "Sunshine USA". He lived in Hollywood at 5522 Western Ave. during a strange and miraculous time. He was a guard at the famous Punk Club the Masque (with Tiny) and at the Jack In the Box on Hollywood Blvd (view my pics) nearby where he penned much of his material. He went on to record an album on CBS: Tommy Knight 1981/ prod. Mark (Peters) Wirtz.
