Rock duo projects have been around, some successful like Lee Michaels and his drummer back in the late '60s, more recently Local H from here in Chi and the White Stripes from Motor City. I know the drummer in this one having been a camera man for a local cable rock show about 10 years ago that he was on a couple of times. Gregg is the quintessential hired gun who is great in every project he is involved in, can't remember ever meeting this guitarist/singer and didn't know that they won an emmy:

Lee Michaels and Frosty (drummer) - man, that brings back some memories. Saw them a couple of times and have the deafness to prove it. A wall of Leslie cabs across the backline!

Thanks Mike, I have one of their live albums (the green one that opens from the top, like an army back pack) somewhere and I wondered if the singer was Barry 'Frosty' Frost, but, that album is from '71 so it had to be Peter. Then I wiki'd Rare Earth and wouldn't you know it, Barry played with them too ( I didn't know he played with the 'Sweathogs' can you say Vinnie Bobarino 5 times fast, me neither) in '74. I wouldn't have known any of that if not for you Bro, thanks again!
