Eagles- One of These Nights- the late Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner

Driving halfway across America  not long after the June 1975 release of “One of These Nights”  by The Eagles is when I truly realized just how massively popular this band had become. Original Eagles singer/bass player Randy Meisner, now passed, and the late Eagles co-founder singer/guitarist Glenn Frey joined me here In the Studio in a classic rock interview,precious now with their passing, about the album which single-handedly took country and western music from the bunkhouse to Broadway.

Dire Straits- Brothers in Arms- Mark Knopfler

Few albums from the Eighties have been so popular or aged as well as “Brothers in Arms”, the fifth studio album from London’s Dire Straits. Released in May 1985, Brothers in Arms contained the songs of Mark Knopfler performed expertly and produced impeccably, which proved irresistible to an international buying audience estimated at over thirty million. Dire Straits bandleader Mark Knopfler tries to explain the phenomenon of “Brothers in Arms”  and modern super-celebrity here In the Studio in this classic rock interview. “I recommend success to anybody. I can’t think of anything good about fame. If you can, let me know.”

Doobie Brothers- What Were Once Vices…/Stampede- Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons

The surprise success from “Black Water” afforded the Doobie Brothers some creative license on their next album, “Stampede”, released in April 1975. But as you will hear from Patrick Simmons, Tom Johnston, and the late Doobie drummer Mike Hossack, the non-stop grind of five years of one-nighters, stopping only long enough to record the next album, was starting to create stress fractures in the foundation of the band which  would sideline Tom Johnston with a bleeding ulcer and, ultimately, alter the sound of the Doobie Brothers for the next decade.

Guess Who- American Woman 55th- Burton Cummings, Randy Bachman

If you have not listened to the Guess Who’s January 1970 classic “American Woman” album recently, I predict you will be amazed at how strong the songs were, such as “No Sugar Tonight”; how environmentally aware lyricist/ gifted singer Burton Cummings was on “New Mother Nature” and “Hand Me Down World”; and how rockin’ Randy Bachman could complement Cummings’ pop side on “American Woman” and before that, “No Time”. So why did Bachman leave at the Guess Who’s peak? Find out here from Burton Cummings & Randy Bachman In the Studio.
