Summary |
"As founding member of 'The Rascals' Felix Cavaliere's message has always been to stand for peace, love, and happiness. In addition to being regarded as the King of Blue-Eyed Soul, Felix is unquestionably a prince when it comes to being socially involved. From refusing to play shows that weren't of mixed race, to spending a lifetime fighting on behalf of those in need, Felix has always put his actions where his passions lay. 'Good Lovin',' 'Groovin',' 'It's a Beautiful Morning,' 'You Better Run,' 'I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart No More,' 'People Got to Be Free' are just a small, yet illustrious example of the music Felix has created. Making people feel good has always been primary in a career that spans more than 50-years and includes inductions into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Songwriter Hall of Fame, Musician's Hall of Fame, Vocal Group Hall of Fame, and Grammy Hall of Fame. Few artists can claim they defined a generation; and here within these pages, Felix Cavaliere goes deep, all the while reminding us to keep listening for the world's beauty." -- page [4] of cover. |
