Cheap Trick- Dream Police 45th- Rick Nielsen, Robin Zander

we find out from my guests Cheap Trick lead singer Robin Zander and guitarist/songwriter Rick Nielsen that the band had actually interrupted recording their fourth studio album, "Dream Police", in order to do that first Japanese tour in 1978. Several hits would eventually come from "Dream Police", including "Voices","It's the Way of the World", and the title song, but those would have to wait while Cheap Trick scuttled all plans while they learned to surf the tsunami of success from the unexpected live album.

AC/DC- Highway to Hell 45th- Angus Young, the late Malcolm Young

AC/DC original lead singer Bon Scott's generous body art and ear studs, plus his affable demeanor, made Scott appear less like a rock singer and more like a character out of Herman Melville's "Moby Dick"...Angus Young and the late Malcolm Young are my guests for “Highway to Hell”.
