In 1974, Richard Del Connor was performing as a blues-rock guitarist in San Diego.

His own bands were originally billed as "LOTUS," but were changed to "THE RICH," as a brand of their quality and because the band featured the music of Rich, Richard Del Connor, also known as, "Dickie Dare."

The rock operas, UNDERGROUND, IN VIOLENCE, and THE PAUPER, were billed as, THE RICH, from 1975 to 1978.

Romantic song about meeting a girl late at night in a downtown area with wet streets under the street lights. Recorded 1974 at Bonita Studio. Song similar to Nirvana and The Doors.
