Ron Dante is a music legend. He’s the singer on two massive hits, “Sugar Sugar” by the Archies and “Tracy” by The Cuff Links. He produced Barry Manilow’s first nine albums including his #1 hit “Mandy”. And he also produced Cher and Pat Benetar. We talk about his career, including his time doing jingles, and we do a Songfest with his greatest hits.
My featured song in this episode is “Ode To Jerry”, from the Project Grand Slam album Play. In Ron’s honor I renamed the song for this occasion as “Ode To Ron”. Spotify link:
