Felix Cavaliere Memoir of a Rascal: From Pelham, NY to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

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 to his illustrious 50-year career that includes 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.
