Rick Springfield

• How you know him: you turned on the radio in the last 30 years; you obsessed over General Hospital in the ’80s; your buddy Jesse is starting to resent you
• Where you’ve seen him lately: stealing the show on Dave Grohl’s Sound City documentary, record, and tour; performing with Foo Fighters on Jimmy Kimmel Live
• Or maybe: on The View; touting his upcoming novel Magnificent Vibration; returning to alter ego Noah Drake on General Hospital
• Top-10 hits that have only improved with age: “I’ve Done Everything for You,” “Love Somebody,” “Don’t Talk to Strangers”
• Other hits you might hear: “Affair of the Heart,” “Love is Alright Tonight,” “Calling All Girls”
• Year he’ll receive his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame: 2014
• New song you just gotta hear: “The Man That Never Was”
• Reason you just gotta hear it: to see whether Springfield’s contribution to the Sound City soundtrack beats those by album-mates Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks
• Source of his enduring good looks and energy at age 63: Australian genes, probably?<p>
