Born and raised in New York, Richard took to music at an early age; playing in bands throughout high school, and gigging in Manhattan Rock clubs by the age of 19. One of his first bands, Gumption Trap, earned the "distinction" of being banned from the legendary CBGB’s for raucous stage antics. After studying both Music and Economics at NYU, Richard worked for several years in a NYC jingle house, assisting recording sessions and sychnching library music (and doing taxes and fetching lunch) <a hr

Moontan is the ninth studio album by Dutch rock band Golden Earring, first released in August 1973 through Polydor internationally, Track Records in the United Kingdom, and MCA Records in the United States. It contains the radio hit "Radar Love". Moontan is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA.
"Vanilla Queen" twice samples Marilyn Monroe's character in ''There's No Business Like Show Business'': "Well, in simple English I'm..." from the "Lazy" performance and "What's your name, Honey?" from the "Heat Wave" performance.
