In mid-70s Cleveland, singer-songwriter and current radio DJ Michael Stanley formed the heartland rock group Michael Stanley Band. The band recorded albums through the late 70s and early 80s while touring constantly across the American Midwest. After the group folded, Stanley has since worked as a solo artist. His highest charting singles with the Michael Stanley Band were "He Can't Love You" (a #33 hit) in 1980 and "My Town" in 1983 (a #39 hit), which both got decent nationwide airplay. Tune "Lover" is also a fan favorite. In fact, "He Can't Love You" was the 45th song ever played on MTV. Also notable for having two prominent vocalists in the group, the Michael Stanley Band was such a huge sensation in its home area that it still holds attendance records at Cleveland's Blossom Music Center. They still have a special place in the hearts of many Ohioans after many years. The band has had influences across the U.S. Stanley's song "Let's Get the Show on the Road" was covered on the 2000 album 'Live in the Classic City' by Widespread Panic. "My Town" was covered by Little Texas on their album 'Big Time'. As well, "Rosewood Bitters" was covered by rocker Joe Walsh on his 1985 album 'The Confessor'. Read more on Last.fm.
