Stardom seemed to elude popular Aussie rock singer/actor, who was propelled to fame by a stint on a General Hospital. Despite rivalling David Cassidy as a teen idol, (he even had his own cartoon series), his music career just never quite took off, and Rick was in personal despair for most of the '70's.
Incredibly, he got another chance in early '80's, and with hits like 'Jesse's Girl', he became a teen idol all over again. But despite 4 platinum albums and worldwide recognition, chronic depression stayed with him. "Be careful what you wish for, because it was not what I thought at all", laments Rick. We hear from his mother and former girlfriend Linda Blair, and Rick describes how he had to cancel a tour in 1989 following a four wheeler accident, then abandoned his career for a decade, before finally addressing his illness.
