The Sting and I…We had already done multiple interviews when he was in The Police and now Sting had released three solo albums, including his solo debut,”The Dream of the Blue Turtles”, by the time we reconvened in 1991. Sting had lost both parents by then, the most recent his father, and was clearly wrestling with his star ascending amidst pain and personal loss.
We had never met anyone in rock music quite like The Pretenders bandleader Chrissie Hynde, and honestly in the forty years since, I still haven’t…I have Ms. Hynde here to speak for herself In the Studio about The Pretenders/ Pretenders II, one of rock’s most important one-two Post-punk punches.
Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood for the brief Blind Faith story In the Studio.

March 1994’s “The Division Bell” by Pink Floyd became the last offering of new music from the remaining triumvirate of singer/guitarist/composer David Gilmour, drummer Nick Mason, and keyboard player Richard Wright. “The Division Bell” sold over three million copies just in the Nineties thirty years ago. Gilmour and Mason join me In the Studio on the 30th anniversary.
“Love At First Sting” by the Scorpions in March 1984 soared to # 6 on the Billboard album chart with triple platinum sales, while delivering a blitzkreig of rock anthems including “Rock You Like A Hurricane”, “Big City Nights”, and the signature power ballad “Still Loving You”. Scorpions lead singer Klaus Meine and guitarist Rudolph Schenker are my guesst In the Studio.
Billy Idol joined me In the Studio for the fortieth anniversary of “Rebel Yell” to invoke the eleventh commandment: thou shalt have no Idols before Billy! -Redbeard
To my knowledge, the Jimi Hendrix early show at Berkeley CA on May 30, 1970 has never officially been released, so “Voodoo Child” is a nice appetizer for the 55th anniversary of “Electric Ladyland” coming up.
It is the massively popular September 1983 release “Sports” by Huey Lewis and the News. Huey Lewis is my guest here In the Studio.
