Chris DeMarco The 70’s - Riff Raff was recorded in 1977 at Media Sound Studio on 57th Street in Manhattan and Caribou Ranch in Colorado. The band Riff Raff was comprised of Chris DeMarco, Ned Liben, Ray Hennigan, Jimmy Lowell and David Lanik. The band was formed after Chris and Ned met while visiting a mutual friend in the hospital. Ned and his band mates were looking for a singer and someone to write their songs. Within two weeks Chris had turned their riffs into songs and recruited Sid Bernstein as their manager. Riff Raff played gigs at Copperfields and CBGBs in The Village. The band became the talk of the town and many famous musicians showed up to see them play, including Led Zepplin, Mick Jagger, Peter Frampton and Paul Stanley from Kiss. Paul Stanley wanted to produce the band, as did Felix Pappalardi (Mountain). Riff Raff was signed to Island Records. The album was finally released in 2010 by Dreamco Music.
