...Mr. Remus 90 and something else

Stanley Harvey Eisen was born in Bronx, New York on January 20th, 1952, to William and Eva Eisen. Their house was filled with opera and classical music as Stanley grew. Soon though, he discovered the pounding sounds of Eddie Cochran and American Bandstand. By the age of thirteen, Stanley had taken enough guitar lessons to master three chords and set out to change the world of music.

By the age of fifteen, he had done some recording with his band The Post-War Baby Boom. Art held a close second in Stanley`s heart, and he attended Manhattan School of Music and Art, and Bronx Community College as an art major. Much to his parents dismay, he gave up the paintbrush for the guitar and never looked back.

Soon after leaving school, Stanley`s friend and bandmate Stephen Coronel introduced him to a bushy-haired, shaggy-bearded songwriter named Gene Klein. The two songwriters didn`t exactly hit it off right away, but soon found themselves working together in the ill-fated Wicked Lester. Stanley and Gene left the band and soon found themselves putting together a new band and writing new songs, never realizing how drastically their lives were about to change.
