When Rik Emmett Met Paul Rodgers & Quickly Recognized Paul's Wife

[@StilettoCutsQuick.]

Triumph was a great band.

[@zerodollarman]

My brother in law dated Cynthia thru high school in Vernon BC. Imagine my surprise, when years later I saw that she had married Paul Rogers! She’s a terrific lady!

[@WisconsinWanderer]

I had the pleasure of seeing Triumph back in the mid 80’s when I lived in Texas I forget what album they were promoting but my god from what I remember the band was so tight it was mind blowing! Ah yes those days were golden. Thanks Rick one kick ass guitar player☮️❤️

The next time you interview Rik, please ask him what it was like to play the US Festival Heavy Metal Day 1983. That was a fantastic performance.

Huge Fan Of Both Vocalists! Paul Is The VOICE Of Rock&Roll!

[@gatekeeper65]

Great stories ! Mr Emmett has always been a giant in my eyes. Some of the most tasteful yet rockin' guitar from that era, and incredible vocals. I'm hoping to get to see him again sometime before my ticket is rendered invalid. ;o)

[@edbigtruck]

Rik Emmett has been a guitar hero and huge influence on my playing for the past 40 years

[@pamr4040]

I'm not surprised that it was Leland who insisted on getting him to the hospital. He's such a kindhearted, sweet and caring man (not to mention a killer bass player!). Great stories! ♥

I saw Paul Rodgers open for Jeff Beck in Toronto about 5 years ago and I was BLOWN AWAY by how great his voice and music catalogue are! I'd forgotten how many killer tunes Bad Company produced and his voice sounded even better than it was back then! AMAZING.

[@yelizaveta1278]

What a ticket! I've yet to see him live(🤞🏼) but I believe it . Such a wealth of goodness in his catalogue And been at it 50+yrs wow ✧⁠*⁠。 ( Great that you got to see Jeff Beck before he passed )

"The Rocket" Rik Emmett!!😎👍

[@patrickmoreau7592]

Great stories Good for Rik brother going for it

[@johnlanigan5883]

Lifelong fan of Paul Rogers. The very first album I purchased was Tons of Sobs. He’s the pleasure of seeing him many years later (Bad Company days).

[@pablocruise9514]

Hilarious story.

[@kevinklein959]

Cynthia Kereluk. They have a house in Summerland as well as other houses but Cynthia is a big horse rescue person and she has an acreage where she keeps horses. They live just down the road from my boss in Summerland and I've met him twice......amazing humble guy.

[@markkasper7281]

Midsummer's Daydream = the song that inspired me to take up acoustic fingerstyle guitar playing

[@lizreuber7945]

Cynthia is an amazing woman. Did her work out for yrs. She’s fabulous.

[@RobKimbro1966]

I guess I would be more surprised if most of these classic rock stars didn't at least rub elbows with the spouses or girlfriends of other rock stars since it is a small circle of performers that have made it huge.

[@jaycareaga9929]

JT has lost 3 band members. Vocalists Valerie Carter and David Lasley and Drummer Carlos Vega.

[@RockHistoryMusic]

Don't forget James' "Musical Director" and pianist Don Grolnick.

[@johnhutchison9782]

Sometimes reality is crazier than the minds of Hollywood movie makers😂

[@ronp1018]

Still to this day, I hear Rick Emmett on KSHE 95

[@AaronJoseph-t4b]

What a small world, if Cynthia is of the same mate of Paul's, the one from Semiemoo(White Rock)a.k.a. Semesh, a derivative fr. The former Island Mu in the Pacific,anyway,one story I heard of a dude seranating his girlfriend in Stanley Park playing Acoustic guitar & singing " Feel like making Love" & Paul rides in full cycling gear along the sea wall hears buddy & joins in singing( & he's not recognized!!!) all buddy gives him was " That's not bad" (LoL)

[@paulelliott682]

I was expecting a shades of Layla story

[@davidkyle2073]

They live in Summerland!!!

[@kimblez]

Cynthia Kereluk

[@shuntguy]

Cynthia is a total honey.
