Rock Hall Snubs: Ozzy Osbourne
In the years 1969-74 and “War Child”, there was no band in the world more exciting, more unconventional, and more successful than Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson is my guest.
King Crimson singer/ bass player Greg Lake discusses the progressive rock touchstone “In the Court of the Crimson King” with Jon Anderson of YES and Mike Rutherford of Genesis In the Studio.
“Outlandos d’Amour’ has a certain grotesque, naïve charm about it,” Sting offers in this interview about the second album by The Police, “but ‘Reggatta de Blanc’ is infinitely a better record.” Both the critics and the rock audience agreed, garnering two #1 hits in the UK with “Walking on the Moon” and “Message in a Bottle”, plus topping the album sales chart there with “Reggatta de Blanc”.
Widely viewed along with Bob Dylan, The Byrds, and Gram Parsons as fathers of the Americana musical movement, The Band also may have been one of rock’s first alternative groups. In part one of this classic rock interview, main songwriter Robbie Robertson (“The Weight”,”The Night They Drove Ol’Dixie Down”,”Up on Cripple Creek”,”The Shape I’m In”) helps me make that case.

Even over fifty-five years later, my guest here In the Studio John Fogerty’s sound and vision on “Green River” and “Willy and the Poor Boys” were completely self-contained and, to this day, never duplicated.
Little Feat lifers Bill Payne and Paul Barrere sat down with me to talk. Or maybe they should have been lying down on a couch. “I loved him, and I hated him,” said a clearly emotional Barrere in this intense conversation, which inevitably begins and ends with the subject of the enigmatic musical genius, Lowell George. This is a no-holds-barred insider’s look at the talented but troubled Little Feat co-founder Lowell George and his complicated relationships within the band prior to his death from a drug-induced heart attack in 1979.
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band’s “Nine Tonight” really does feel like a close approximation of seeing the tireless veteran Detroit singer/songwriter and his band when they were one of America’s top live acts. Bob Seger is my terrific guest here In the Studio.
