Sir Creep 7,013 Posted February 12, 2017 Sonny Geraci, lead singer of The Outsiders and Climax, has died aged 69. Who? As long as it's not Klymaxx.... SC Have a certified gold single and 5 top 40 hits, including 2 in the top 5 and be mocked on a forum about death - it's a good job poor Sonny is dead so he can't feel this pain. I know the songs you fool, I'm as old as your mother. The OCD on this website is amazing. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had no idea that dude was a teen idol/1 hit wonder.Just assumed it was a made up singer when I saw the episode of Full House as a kid with his guest spot. Because of this news,now I have the urge to look on wikipedia and see if Johnny Dakota from Saved By The Bell is real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 19,106 Posted March 12, 2017 Again they are all dying too quickly for my theme team - the Sledges finished outside the top 30 in 1981 and wouldn't have another UK hit single until 1984. In any event, this is shocking news. Humbly thank you for your contribution to music, RIP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
