At age 18, Henry was a founding member of the world famous rock n roll revival group Sha Na Na, playing guitar & wearing his "greaser" clothes he wore in high school. The groups popularity took a giant step after legendary performances at the Fillmore auditoriums in New York and San Francisco and the Woodstock Festival. Henry Gross broke from the band Sha Na Na to be a solo singer/song writer in 1970. He signed a record deal with ABC Dunhill Records in 1971. The album had very little commercial success. He continued to play at clubs and colleges until in 1973 he was signed with A&M Records.
His first A&M album, self-titled Henry Gross, sold very well and had several large regional hits including "Simone", "Come On Say It", "Skin King" and a near gold cover of Lindisfarne's European hit "Meet Me On The Corner". Henry's second A&M album Plug Me Into Something, sold just short of gold. He began to achieve national recognition in Rolling Stone Magazine and The New York Times as a great Rock & Roll guitarist.
