I don't think this is accurate - my vinyl copy of Rockin' The World
doesn't mention Greg Kihn at all, or the other members of *his* band
at the time mentioned here (Steve Wright and Larry Lynch). Personnel
on the album are Dunbar, Gary Phillips, John Doukas, Stan Miller, and
Steve Nelson.
- Greg (not Kihn)
