O'Day wrote great hits for such groups as the Righteous Brothers, single performers like Helen Reddy before making his own number one hit "Undercover Angel" in 1977.
One of the songs he wrote for the Righteous Brothers was the 1974 hit "Rock N' Roll Heaven" which is one of my all time favorite tunes. Who can ever for get the lyric which goes "If you believe in forever, then life is just a one night stand. If there's a rock n' roll heaven then you know they have one hell of a band."
A true lover of the 70's and all it had to offer, I am saddened by this passing, but a rich musical legacy lives on. RIP Alan.
