Scott McCarl, remembers his time with the power pop group the Raspberries.
but morphed into more of a “best of” project coming out in both vinyl and CD, in slightly different versions ., in 1973 while McCarl was in a band, a friend handed him a copy of the Raspberries 45 single “Go All the Way.
And the Raspberries put the new boy to use. McCarl ended up writing or co-writing with Carmen five of the record’s 11 tracks, and even sings lead on “Play On,” their tune about the fast and hard rock-and-roll-lifestyle. But the album’s title was more of wishful thinking. After a tour to support the record and one hit single, the band broke up the next year.
Still, when the end came for the Raspberries just 18 months after McCarl joined, it wasn’t totally unexpected. He says they were “very tight” for the first six months before things got “creepy around the edges.”“I have good memories of it, and some bad ones if I sat down and thought about it. I think about it as that bright sunset you see before it’s gone,” he says.
