Trying to Figure out how to add that Photo of Del with my Wife at Golden Spur in 1977 or so. I'll see how this work's out , Great MySpace. There is a Historical Marker in Battle Creek Michigan where the H-Lo Bar was where Del wrote "Runaway" probably the greatest rock crossover song of all time.

Moved to Battle Creek, wrote the hit song "Runaway" and, in 1961, became known as "Del Shannon" - 60's rock star.
