Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, musician and actor Rick Springfield rocked Eastside Cannery on Friday night, and Scott Harrison was on duty for a photo gallery of the concert.

Springfield, the Australian who is still making hearts skip a beat at age 62, is widely known for his role as Dr. Noah Drake on “General Hospital” (1981-83 and 2005-08) and his hits “Jessie’s Girl” (his No. 1 hit that also garnered him a Grammy), “Love Somebody,” “Affair of the Heart” and “Don’t Talk to Strangers.”

Springfield published his autobiography, “Late, Late at Night: A Memoir,” in 2010, and performs regular gigs in Las Vegas.
