Based in San Francisco, Loverde worked with record producer Patrick Cowley on his greatest success; Die Hard Lover, released in 1982.
In 1964, he appeared as a guest on American Bandstand in which he and 3 other panelists reviewed the Beatles single "A Hard Day's Night", and B side, I Should Have Known Better.
During the 1970s, Frank met Linda Imperial in St. Louis, Missouri, while working as a guest DJ at a newly opened night club.
Loverde continued on the club circuit, occasionally working on studio projects, until 1982 when he was given an instrumental track by Patrick Cowley and asked to write lyrics for it.
By the time of the single's release, Patrick Cowley was becoming increasingly ill, suffering from AIDS, and was unable to contribute anything more than simple synthesizer riffs.
