The Los Angeles alternative rock band Concrete Blonde have a fragmented history
during which the band were active in three distinct periods 1982-1995, 2001-2004
and 2010-2012. The band were formed by the talented bass player Johnette
Napolitano and guitarist James Mankey along with drummer Harry Rushakoff. Mankey
was one of the founding members of Sparks and became the musical anchor of the
band during their various incarnations. Due to his battles with addiction,
drummer Rushakoff was to prove a liability for the group and had to be replaced
by ex-Roxy Music drummer Paul Thompso...
