Rocky Harris

Can anybody provide any info on Rocky Harris (member of Jesse Johnson's Revue)? His real name, date of birth, stuff like that.

Sirroco "Rocky" Harris is doing fine.
Before playing drums for Jesse Johnson, Rocky actually replaced Terry Lewis as the new bass player for The Time.
Before filming the movie Purple Rain he was let go and replaced by Jerry Hubbard. Rocky then moved on replacing well known Minneapolis drummmer Bobby Vandell in Jesse Johnson's Revue. You can see Rocky playing drums in the "Crazy for You" video with Jesse Johnson and Sly Stone. Later Rocky moved on to play drums for Alexander O'Neal. Jerry Hubbard was playing bass for Alexander O'Neal also. Jerry Hubbard left Alexander O'Neal and Rocky replaced him on bass. Bobby Vandell replaced Rocky on drums. It has been said that this was the period Alexander O'Neal had one of his tightest funkiest bands.
