    The lead guitarist of The Golden Earring, George Kooymans, was diagnosed with ALS. The end of a great band. Most of you will know their greatest hit, "radar love"

    Sad news. Love Golden Earring but think Twilight Zone is a much better and more representative track. IMHO.

    Much later, and to each his own, Adie. I think radar love is iconic, and often have it playing in my head when riding. The throbbing baseline gets me every time...

    ALS is a cruel disease.

    Radar love is a great record, surprized that they never had any more hits in the Uk

    Yes, Radar Love - Great song behind the wheel or the handlebars.

    Also:

    Born To Be Wild - Steppenwolf
    CC Rider - Mitch Rider and the Detroit wheels
    Maybelline - Johnny Rivers
    Fun, Fun, Fun - Beach Boys

    Mea Culpa if this is considered a "highjack."
