The Rich- Live Venice- The Reason Why 1980

THE RICH in 1980:

Bill Stewart - drums: 28" Ludwig kick drum, Paiste cymbals, 8-ply birch drums 

Richard Connor - lead vocals, 1957 Rickenbacker 4000 bass with flatwounds through Plush Amp

Vinnie Vincent Lauria- electric guitar, 1978 Marshall Mk.II 50 watt combo amplifier 

This song should have been a radio hit... "The Reason Why" has had several versions of lyrics since it's first version at the counter of Canter's in Hollywood, where he met a Jewish princess and her sister. Then each new girlfriend he got inspired him to change the lyrics. There are probably six versions of this song.
