Ross Wilson has a stack of new dates for the Eagle Rock 50th anniversary tour, postponed because of Covid.
The ‘Eagle Rock’ single was released in May 1971 followed by the ‘Daddy Who, Daddy Cool’ album in July 1971, The second Daddy Cool album ‘Sex, Dope, Rock’n’Roll Teenage Heaven’ came out six months later in December 1971 so by the time the next dates roll around Daddy Cool fans can celebrate both the beginning and the end of Daddy Cool.
Daddy Cool’s ‘Eagle Rock’ influenced Elton John to write ‘Crocodile Rock’ and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers formed around a mutual love of Daddy Cool.
