Roger Waters admitted to me that, in 1980, Pink Floyd had been guaranteed one million dollars per night to perform "The Wall" on a stadium tour.

Van Halen II 45th- Alex Van Halen, Michael Anthony, the late Eddie Van Halen

Van Halen's  1978 debut probably guaranteed their election to the Rock 'n'Roll Hall of Fame on the first ballot. Six years later they even topped that with "1984". Every one of the four Van Halen albums in between, "II" released in March 1979, " Women and Children First", "Fair Warning",  and "Diver Down"  would all sell a million-plus and chart Top 6 on Billboard  album sales. The late Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, & original bass player/background singer Michael Anthony join me In the Studio.
