(Standing Room Only) with the great Allen "Turk" Burke, (Marvin Gaye, the Spinners), Jim Koss, (the Boys Next Door), and Jim Albrecht, (the Joys of Life, Speakeasy and Small Talk).

The guitarist and leader of the band, Kieth Goines, later of the popular Chicago rock band "M.S. Funk" asked Rob to join their band on the spot.
