Vinnie Vincent songs in Happy Days In 1980, Vincent moved to Los Angeles,
California where he became a (Paramount) staff songwriter for
the television series " Happy Days" and "Joanie Loves Chachi".
Many of the series songs were written on Vincent's acoustic
guitar while sitting at the Cunninghams' kitchen table on the
Happy Days set, during off-time from the show's rehearsal
schedule.
During the last two seasons of the show, he wrote every song
Joanie and Chachi sang together. Below : Happy Days' Scott Baio and Erin
Moran sing "You Look At Me".

Vinnie Vincent
(with WARRIOR) "Thrill Of A Chase" was first roughly
demoed by Steven Rosen and Jimmy Waldo.
When Vinnie Vincent heard that demo, he loved the song so much
that he was keen to do his own version of it. That's why
WARRIOR (including Vinnie Vincent) went into to studio in
1988 (6 years after the band split up) to record the song.
A different version (without Vinnie Vincent's vocals and
guitars) appeared on Jimmy Waldo & Steven Rosen's "Voices
Of The Past" (2018). (Copyright registered in April 1988)
