Admiral Television?

i still cling to rick derringer--found this link between him and h&o:

also, the bass player from his band derringer played with h&o.
if we put this much effort into finding the zodiac killer, we'd be immortal.

That's a good find, Loomisjohnson. I now agree that the "Admiral" is someone under contract by a different label. I really thought that it was Todd because he was so advanced with the technology and engineering, so why not use a pseudonym relating to some vintage gear.

I agree that that link makes Derringer feel like the main suspect.

Hodu,

I just fired up Showbiz Kids and I definitely see your point.

I always assumed that that was Larry Carlton on guitar. Oddly enough, Carlton was another name that came up when I played this "whodunnit" game with my instructor.

I'll keep workin' it with the e-mail machine, but I think you might have nailed it.

Rick Derringer wouldn't surprise me. He was playing with Johnny Winter up until Winter got a bit heavy into heroin and disappeared from '72 -'73. The bass player for Hall and Oates in 1974 was Kenny Aaronson. After Kenny's stint with Hall and Oates, he moved to another band but ended up playing for Rick Derringer two years later. Derringer was in NYC in 1973 as he was from Ohio (gotta leave) and he performed for Donald Fagen and Walter Becker on Steely Dan's 'Show Biz Kids'. Kenny Aaronson the bass player was born and raised in Brooklyn and was the up and coming bass player in the New York scene. War Babies was recorded in New York. You guys are very close or you probably nailed it with Derringer. I would look to Kenny Aaronson forthe answer. He probably knows and he might more approachable than Daryl.
