The true "fifth Rascal"

[joerusso]

The Rascals would not sound the same on record without brother DAVID's invaluable contributions to background vocals and arrangements. Starting with the track "Lonely Too Long", David became a central figure to their hitmaking sound and an essential component of the band's trademark three-part harmonies. His performing career pre-dates the Rascals with late 50's vocal group THE HI-FIVES ("Dorothy") and later, the legendary JOEY DEE & THE STARLITERS ("The Peppermint Twist"). David is an indellible asset to the sound of the Rascals in spirit and in creation. David is currently performing across the country with the re-formed JOEY DEE AND THE STARLITERS which includes Joey Dee, of course, and Frankie (4 Seasons) Valli's brother, Bobby. -JOE RUSSO
