Lindsey Buckingham- Never Going Back Again- Dallas ’92

An In the Studio exclusive, Lindsey Buckingham performing "Never Going Back Again" !

Cheap Trick- Need Your Love- Passaic NJ 12/78

Cheap Trick actually delayed  Dream Police, their studio follow-up to the brilliant 1978 third album Heaven Tonight, not because of a lack of strong songs  written, but because their fluke live-in-Japan-only release At Budokan  virtually…

Bruce Springsteen & E Street Band- Factory- Cleveland 8-78

With the release of the album Darkness on the Edge of Town in 1978, Bruce Springsteen went from the Cinemascope sweep of Born to Run three years earlier to the Rock Generation's defacto Secretary of Labor.

Rolling Stones- Mixed Emotions- Toronto 9-3-89

When interviewing Keith Richards in early January 1989 ostensibly about his solo album Talk is Cheap,  I was repeatedly reminded by his delightful publicist Jane Rose not to ask about the 900 pound gorilla in the studio: the Rolling Stones,…

Neil Young-“Needle & the Damage Done” Live Aid Phila. 7-13-85

Dallas-Ft.Worth radio station Q102 and the Dallas Morning News  sent me to JFK Stadium in Philadelphia 7-13-85 to cover the US Live Aid concert.

It stopped Neil Young in his tracks, and he began asking me where I got it.
