In the Summer of 1975, a year before releasing what quickly became the biggest selling debut album in music history, the band Boston did not even exist . A year later Tom Scholz’s seven year basement tapes would emerge out of nowhere to re-write the record books on popularity and profits fifty years ago …(more) Tom Scholz is my guest for Boston’s golden anniversary.
August 26, 1991 I had the great honor and pleasure of co-hosting the world premiere radio broadcast with Bob Seger of “The Fire Inside”. His fourteenth (!) studio album, it came a long five years after Seger and the Silver Bullet Band’s “Like a Rock”, the Detroit rocker’s fifth multi-million seller in a row.
The all-important breakthrough third ZZ Top album, “Tres Hombres”, will focus on the all-around improvements in recording quality and songwriting reflected in such perennials as “Waitin’ for the Bus”, “Jesus Just Left Chicago”, and “Lagrange” plus the introduction of “the squank” to guitar vernacular. Squankmaster Billy Gibbons, deceased drummer Frank Beard, and the dearly missed Dusty Hill tell the colorful tales of the earliest days of ZZ Top here In the Studio for the breakthrough 1973 third album, “Tres Hombres”.
Bon Jovi’s third album “Slippery When Wet” has a worldwide sales estimate since release forty years ago : 28,000,000 copies. It is impossible to overstate how massively popular Bon Jovi’s third album, “Slippery When Wet”, was…Jon Bon Jovi and original guitarist/co-writer Richie Sambora are my guests.
…prior to “Help Yourself”. A peculiar and confounding thing happened with the reception to that fourth Julian Lennon album and its brilliant eco-ballad “Saltwater”. The song went to #6 in the UK and straight to #1 in Australia, but failed to even chart in America. Julian Lennon is my guest In the Studio.
“Who’s Next” by The Who, ranked by Rolling Stone magazine as the #77 rock album of all time, this August 1971 absolute musical masterpiece is mated with an incredibly illuminating classic rock interview with its composer, Pete Townshend, here In the Studio including the songs “Baba O’Riley”,”Bargain”,”Going Mobile”,”Behind Blue Eyes”,”Getting in Tune”, and “Won’t Get Fooled Again”…
In July 1981, Stevie Nicks already was in arguably America’s most popular band, Fleetwood Mac, but her first solo album then, “Bella Donna”, took her career to another level entirely, a fact that was by no means guaranteed and which came at some cost. Stevie spells it all out quite candidly In the Studio while revealing the stories and characters behind “Edge of Seventeen”, “Leather and Lace” with Don Henley, and the timeless duet with Tom Petty on his “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around”.
Al Stewart joins me In the Studio in a rare interview about his breakout 1976 album “Year of the Cat”. But being witness repeatedly to rock history apparently accounted for nothing when Al Stewart’s seventh album, “Year of the Cat”, was unceremoniously turned down by every major UK record label 50 years ago.
Hard-charging San Francisco juggernaut Journey unveiled a defining album for the decade with “Escape” in July 1981, containing “Don’t Stop Believin’ “,”Stone in Love”, “Who’s Crying Now”,”Open Arms”, and “Mother, Father”. For the forty-fifth anniversary of this timeless effort, the Journey songwriting triumvirate of Steve Perry, founding guitarist Neal Schon, and new recruit then Jonathan Cain all recall their daring “Escape”.
