Peter Gabriel- So
(cont)…It was not until stumbling into the broadcast media/entertainment business that I got to witness, up close and personally, individual musicians who have been given enormous powers of influence through the modern phenomenon of celebrity, by the very people who they entertain. Case in point is this week’s classic rock interview subject: ex-Genesis lead singer Peter Gabriel had a cult following after four studio solo albums, with his most significant creation being the ground-breaking “Shock the Monkey” video. But with the May 1986 release of “So” (#1 UK, #2 U.S., over 5 million sold; 4 Grammy nominations including Album and Record of the Year for the #1 hit “Sledgehammer”), Peter Gabriel was vaulted into international pop stardom with all of its attendant door-opening , barrier-eliminating amenities…(more)

the ad agency for a big brokerage house switched to Roxy Music’s “Take a Chance with Me” in the latest tv ad. Here is Roxy Music and singer Bryan Ferry performing it live back in May 1983 during a broadcast from Radio City Music Hall.
Aerosmith- Rocks- Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Tom Hamilton, Brad Whitford, Joey Kramer
Aerosmith “Rocks”. It was a declarative statement in Spring 1976 with no equivocation. If “Toys in the Attic” a year earlier had been the definitive mid-Seventies American hard rock statement, then Aerosmith “Rocks” made it musically imperative with “Back in the Saddle”, “Sick as a Dog”, the clever sequel to “Toys…” with “Rats in the Cellar”, and another infectious Steven Tyler/Brad Whitford hit, “Last Child”.
Peter Frampton Forgets the Words pt 2
In the conclusion to my all-new interview focusing on his brilliant all-instrumental album “Frampton Forgets the Words”, delightful conversationalist Peter Frampton picks one of my favorite Stevie Wonder chestnuts to interpret, “I Don’t Know Why”, and explains to us how Motown, “The Sound of Young America”, was in fact even bigger in his home country the UK than here; rocks out with his band on Lenny Kravitz’s “Are You Gonna Go My Way”; reveals his lifelong brotherly love for David Bowie; and much more in this part two.

It’s the thirtieth anniversary of the long dreamed about, too good to last summit meeting of both Seventies- and Eighties-era YES members on the album “Union”, with Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Alan White, Steve Howe, Tony Kaye, and the late Chris Squire ALL In the Studio.
