The Outfield's Tony Harris R.I.P.

Post by linthat22 »

Not sure if anyone caught this, but I just read about it and MAN talk about a voice gone way too soon! He was just 62 years old, definitely a young passing.

Saw that last week(?). What a shame. Great band. Their albums were great across the board; not just the singles.

Agreed. The Outfield were great in the 80s and there is still nothing quite like it.

I didn't realize that one of their hits was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

I didn't either. Which song was theirs?

Good 80's band with 2 of the 3 members leaving us far too soon. RIP.

Woops, never mind, I was getting them confused with another group. They weren't on that soundtrack. Sorry about that.
