Comments
The 'original' Modern Lovers were formed in 1970 and disbanded in 1974.

The 'Modern Lovers' in 'Jonathan Richman and The Modern Lovers' were simply Richman's backing band, with an ever-changing line-up and no contribution from the members of the original group (except of course Richman himself.)
Members
