Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame: Pearl Gates AKA Pearl Harbour (Pearl Harbor and the Explosions)

from Poorman's 15 Minutes of Fame · host Chelsea Shells

“Drivin' was pretty big, not a Top 10, but it was a Top 100 Billboards recording in 1979. And yes, so Drivin' was the biggest hit I've ever had and Pearl Harbor and the Explosions was the most successful I ever was. But success does not mean fun or happiness. You know? So I was more all about fun and happiness.” —Pearl Harbour, Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame interview
