Aerosmith- Toys in the Attic 50th- Steven Tyler, Brad Whitford, Joey Kramer, Tom Hamilton, Joe Perry
On its 50th anniversary, we dust off “Toys in the Attic”, the breakthrough third album for Aerosmith in April 1975. Contrary to what you might assume, through their first two albums Aerosmith struggled to get noticed. In this classic rock interview, Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer reminded me that “Dream On” from their debut by then had been released as a single three times and flopped twice.
Brandi Carlile- Broken Horses- SNL 10-21
On her “Broken Horses” first Saturday Night Live performance October 23, 2021 Brandi Carlile, framed by her hired gun identical twin bald-headed guitarists, elicited comparison to Bonnie Raitt backed by Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers. Carlile’s songcraft, stage presence, and impeccable vibrato, with that hot band kicking her backside, made me an instant convert.

Until “No Jacket Required” in February 1985, Phil Collins was best known as the drummer who surprised everyone by more than capably replacing band mate Peter Gabriel as the lead singer for Genesis. Phil Collins joins me In the Studio for his 1985 blockbuster “No Jacket Required”.

Styx- Pieces of Eight- Tommy Shaw, James”JY” Young
focusing on the 1978 release of “Pieces of Eight”, former Styx member and co-founder Dennis DeYoung confesses that, in spite of his major conceptual songwriting role on the band’s 1977 breakthrough three million seller “The Grand Illusion”, the highly-anticipated follow-up “Pieces of Eight” was not his finest hour. Styx guitarists/ songwriters/ singers Tommy Shaw and James Young stepped up creatively to fill the void on “Pieces of Eight”, again selling triple platinum with the muscular “Blue Collar Man”,”Renegade”,”The Great White Hope”,”Queen of Spades”, and “Sing for the Day”.
