Richard Page (b. May 16, 1953, Keokuk, Iowa), is the lead singer and bassist in 1980's US band Mr. Mister, and is also now a songwriter and solo artist.
***
Mr. Mister is an American pop rock band of the 1980's. The band's name came from an inside joke about a Weather Report record called Mr. Gone where they referred to each other as "Mister This" or "Mister That," and eventually selected "Mr. Mister."
Mr. Mister may be considered as representative of the melodic sound of 1980's pop rock.
The band consisted of Richard Page on vocals and bass guitar, Steve George on keyboards, Pat Mastelotto on acoustic and electronic drums and Steve Farris on guitars.
