Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band’s “Nine Tonight” really does feel like a close approximation of seeing the tireless veteran Detroit singer/songwriter and his band when they were one of America’s top live acts. Bob Seger is my terrific guest here In the Studio.
With June 1989’s “The End of the Innocence”, we found out that Don Henley had a lot on his mind about life, love, and the American Experiment. Don Henley is my guest In the Studio.
Paul McCartney for “Flowers in the Dirt” In the Studio with Redbeard !
In May 1974 the band and the man Robin Trower were in the San Francisco Bay area, just a few weeks into promoting their second album,”Bridge of Sighs”.
When revisiting the Rush April 1984 release “Grace Under Pressure”, I had to double-check the math. Could “Grace Under Pressure”, in my mind that mid-period transitional album for the Toronto-based trio, really have been their tenth studio album in as many years? The late Neil Peart of Rush discussed it all on opening night of the “Grace Under Pressure” 1984 tour.
When we met in 1978, we were both in our mid-twenties, but I realized even then that Tom Petty had a very old soul, wise and true, and that sense only increased over the next four decades…The late Tom Petty is my guest In the Studio for the story of “Full Moon Fever”.
The sub-title of this classic rock interview should probably be “Frampton Barely Survives”. Everybody knows that young Englishman Peter Frampton revolutionized the recording industry in early 1976 with his live double set “Frampton Comes Alive”. But where did those now-iconic songs like “Show Me the Way”, “Lines on My Face”, “Baby I Love Your Way”, “All I Want to Be (Is By Your Side)”, and “Do You Feel Like We Do” originally come from? Peter joins me In the Studio to trace the days after he left Humble Pie, his struggles with four solid but woefully under-exposed solo studio albums, his phenomenal transformation into pop superstardom with the live album, and the tumultuous years immediately afterward trying to survive it all.
This late 1987 interview with The Cult lead guitarist/co-writer Billy Duffy reflects the frustration, duplicated effort, and enormous expense the band incurred making the preceding album, “Electric”, as well as the subsequent success they found with the final results, pointing ahead to the platinum success with “Sonic Temple”.
Note how Florida natives the late Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers stood their ground with a six-string rather than a six-shooter. It’s a different take on “I Won’t Back Down” from San Francisco’s Fillmore during a nationwide radio broadcast in February 1997.
YES innovated in early 1994 with “Talk”, and singer/lyricist Jon Anderson singer/guitarist/composer Trevor Rabin joined me In the Studio to talk about “Talk”.
