- 1:24SPEAKER_01: Oh, and also we're going to review Europe's new album and Leo Young's new album.
- 1:29SPEAKER_01: Sort of.
- 1:29SPEAKER_01: Oh, wait a minute.
- 1:30SPEAKER_01: Not the full album, because the full the it uh it hasn't fully dropped yet.
- 1:35SPEAKER_01: Oh but there's like three songs.
- 1:38SPEAKER_01: So I could review those or just wait.
- 1:43SPEAKER_02: I'd say review it.
- 1:44SPEAKER_02: Review what you got.
- 1:45SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:46SPEAKER_02: I uh the whole Neil album is uh it was uh has been released.
- 1:50SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that one dropped seven tracks.
- 1:52SPEAKER_02: There's seven tracks on Neil's new new album.
- 1:55SPEAKER_02: It's I think it's would do you want to go through those first, or you want to go through the live albums?
- 2:02SPEAKER_01: Um excuse me, Derek.
- 2:06SPEAKER_01: So go ahead and uh yeah, I want you to see what uh what the new uh Neil Neil uh Neil album is.
- 2:15SPEAKER_01: Neil album?
- 2:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:16SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:16SPEAKER_02: I thought I it's typical Neil, you know, his typical voice, his typical rhythm.
- 2:22SPEAKER_02: It's kind of a slow, it's methodical.
- 2:25SPEAKER_02: It's um kind of like you know, Neil's like reflecting on his life and his loves.
- 2:30SPEAKER_02: And actually, I was listening to Neil, this new album, listening to it in my car, and obviously, you know, I have like an hour drive home from work every day.
- 2:43SPEAKER_02: Um every day.
- 2:45SPEAKER_02: And I was kind of reflecting in my own mind, you know, about my life and things, and all of a sudden I smelled um like a charcoal grill.
- 2:55SPEAKER_02: Somebody had a charcoal grill, and they started, you know, probably you know, getting it ready, getting the charcoals ready for the grill, and it just shot me back.
- 3:04SPEAKER_02: And I went back to when my my dad, you know, was the king of the grill, and he would get the charcoals ready, you know, and I'm just kind of envisioning him getting it all started and everything, and I was really reflecting back because of the music and the smells.
- 3:19SPEAKER_02: You know how that thing does.
- 3:20SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 3:21SPEAKER_02: But you know, luckily somebody beeped their horn at me and boom, right back to reality I came and figured, oh, I'm in a traffic jam.
- 3:32SPEAKER_02: But anyway, I I did enjoy it.
- 3:36SPEAKER_02: Um, like I said, it's typical Neil.
- 3:39SPEAKER_02: Um, it's very mellow.
- 3:41SPEAKER_02: Um, it's something you don't want to, you know, put on at a party.
- 3:44SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:45SPEAKER_02: But um, you know, the I think the what was it, second chance was the the one main one?
- 3:51SPEAKER_02: It's a long song.
- 3:52SPEAKER_02: I think it's like 11 minutes long.
- 3:55SPEAKER_02: It was like um the second song is what it's called, yeah.
- 3:59SPEAKER_02: And it's a long song, it's really good.
- 4:01SPEAKER_02: And um I I did enjoy it, but if you're not a Neo fan, you're not gonna enjoy it.
- 4:07SPEAKER_02: You have to be a Neo fan.
- 4:09SPEAKER_02: And actually, I played it for my grandkids.
- 4:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they were here this weekend, and um they were kind of like uh all of them, there's three of them, and they were kind of like, you know, it's got a nice feel to it.
- 4:24SPEAKER_02: If somebody else would sing it, like, oh Chase, you don't like Neil's voice.
- 4:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 4:32SPEAKER_02: Okay, all right.
- 4:36SPEAKER_02: Yeah, okay.
- 4:40SPEAKER_02: Oh boy.
- 4:41SPEAKER_02: But anyway, that's what I got.
- 4:42SPEAKER_02: My take on it is if you're a big Neil fan, obviously you want to buy it because how many more is he gonna put out?
- 4:48SPEAKER_02: A guy's 80 years old, so I yeah, I'll give it to him.
- 4:52SPEAKER_02: I mean, he's still putting songs out, you know.
- 4:54SPEAKER_02: And he actually was in FarmAid over the weekend here.
- 4:58SPEAKER_02: Remember Farmade?
- 4:59SPEAKER_01: Farmade?
- 5:00SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 5:01SPEAKER_01: I didn't hear anything about that.
- 5:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I think it was what's today, Sunday?
- 5:06SPEAKER_02: So it was like yesterday, I believe.
- 5:08SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 5:08SPEAKER_02: I didn't and yeah, he was out there playing just like he always does.
- 5:12SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 5:13SPEAKER_02: What did we hear about it?
- 5:15SPEAKER_02: Willie Willie was on it, Neil was on it.
- 5:18SPEAKER_02: Was it on TV?
- 5:21SPEAKER_02: I don't think it was on TV.
- 5:25SPEAKER_02: There wasn't like a lot of hoopla around that, or I would have heard.
- 5:28SPEAKER_02: No, there was not.
- 5:29SPEAKER_02: It was not.
- 5:30SPEAKER_02: There was not a lot of you know, I like you said, most people probably had no idea the thing was going on.
- 5:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I didn't.
- 5:36SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 5:36SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 5:37SPEAKER_02: Was it like 30 years ago when the first one came out?
- 5:40SPEAKER_02: Something like that.
- 5:41SPEAKER_02: It was been a while.
- 5:41SPEAKER_02: Yeah, John Mellencamp was still on it.
- 5:43SPEAKER_02: John Mellencamp was still on it.
- 5:46SPEAKER_02: I think Dave Matthews was on it, was there raising money.
- 5:52SPEAKER_02: But um Willie.
- 5:54SPEAKER_02: Willie was on it, Willie Nelson.
- 5:56SPEAKER_02: And he's he's getting old.
- 5:58SPEAKER_02: Oh, poor guy.
- 5:59SPEAKER_02: He's gotta be in like 80, what, five, six?
- 6:03SPEAKER_02: Oh, he's gotta be up there.
- 6:04SPEAKER_02: He's way up there.
- 6:05SPEAKER_02: But yeah.
- 6:07SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 6:08SPEAKER_02: But anyway, that's what my take on the new album is.
- 6:12SPEAKER_02: What about you and the Europe?
- 6:13SPEAKER_02: Well, Europe.
- 6:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so if you like Europe, you're gonna like this.
- 6:22SPEAKER_01: It's I went back and listened to a couple uh other albums because quite frankly, I haven't really listened to Europe um since um their big hit back in the 80s, which was what?
- 6:41SPEAKER_01: The final countdown, if you remember that one.
- 6:44SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 6:45SPEAKER_01: The final countdown.
- 6:48SPEAKER_01: So I will say uh there was the song in there, I can't remember if it was called One on One or The Call to Ignorance, um, had a fantastic, I think it was the song, uh, the call to ignorance.
- 7:01SPEAKER_01: It was the start of it was a like a symphonic, how they always do, uh, with the keyboards, the whole thing, and then it came in with a grooven uh bass, bass line, killer, killer bass line.
- 7:16SPEAKER_01: Um, and then basically it turned into every Europe song ever made, in my opinion.
- 7:23SPEAKER_01: I mean, it was good, don't get me wrong, but it's I mean, it's there, it's them.
- 7:27SPEAKER_01: They're not gonna change, right?
- 7:29SPEAKER_02: Nah, yeah, formula, you stick to it.
- 7:31SPEAKER_01: You see, you stick to the song one-on-one was good, and then there was one more.
- 7:37SPEAKER_01: Um, it was I think it was in a different world.
- 7:42SPEAKER_01: Um that was pretty good as well.
- 7:47SPEAKER_01: I haven't heard yet where there was like this boom and guitar thing going yet.
- 7:53SPEAKER_01: Um, but I did notice looking at it that the rest of them did drop.
- 7:58SPEAKER_01: So I will report further next week, sir.
- 8:02unknown: Okay.
- 8:04SPEAKER_01: But so far, I mean, it's if you like Europe, it's typical Europe.
- 8:08SPEAKER_01: If you like them, I think this is a good one.
- 8:10SPEAKER_01: Would you think you'd buy it?
- 8:13SPEAKER_01: No.
- 8:14SPEAKER_01: And no, not no.
- 8:17SPEAKER_01: I'm not like the well, I don't know.
- 8:21SPEAKER_01: Let me I'll list the rest of the album.
- 8:24SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 8:24SPEAKER_01: Wait until the whole thing drops.
- 8:26SPEAKER_01: Wait until the whole thing comes out, list to it, make an edgy macated um uh kind of uh thing going there.
- 8:32SPEAKER_01: I might, I don't know.
- 8:33SPEAKER_01: That bass line was really, really good.
- 8:35SPEAKER_01: So if the rest of the seven songs are anything like that, I may be interested.
- 8:41SPEAKER_01: I will let you know.
- 8:43SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 8:44SPEAKER_02: I know you played me the that beginning bass line.
- 8:47SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that was cool.
- 8:47SPEAKER_02: That was pretty that was pretty good.
- 8:49SPEAKER_02: That was pretty good.
- 8:50SPEAKER_02: Got me excited.
- 8:51SPEAKER_02: I'll tell you that.
- 8:52SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 8:53SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 8:54SPEAKER_02: Well, there you go.
- 8:55SPEAKER_02: Our view of two albums of old rock people that have still out there running.
- 9:00SPEAKER_01: And there's some more albums that haven't dropped yet that I'm kind of excited about.
- 9:05SPEAKER_01: I think you two.
- 9:06SPEAKER_02: YouTube's doing a new one.
- 9:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and there's uh there's a couple more that I'm really excited about just uh just to see how they're doing.
- 9:15SPEAKER_01: And uh maybe we can make this like a monthly thing.
- 9:19SPEAKER_01: You know, see which uh which albums drop for the month and maybe review one or two along the way.
- 9:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they just keep releasing them.
- 9:26SPEAKER_01: It's like amazing.
- 9:28SPEAKER_01: And I mean I don't mean uh like remastered, I mean new studio either studio albums or like today's episode will be live albums if anybody comes out with one of those, I think.
- 9:42SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 9:42SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 9:43SPEAKER_01: Speaking of, sir.
- 9:44SPEAKER_02: I wonder if the Stones will do a live album.
- 9:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean they've had a lot of live albums.
- 9:52SPEAKER_02: Are they going on tour?
- 9:54SPEAKER_02: They've been on tour.
- 9:56SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 9:57SPEAKER_02: You didn't know that?
- 9:58SPEAKER_02: I did not.

- 10:03SPEAKER_01: Yes.

- 10:07SPEAKER_01: I thought they weren't gonna tour anymore.
- 10:09SPEAKER_02: No, I remember they they were touring this past year.
- 10:12SPEAKER_01: Well, I thought that tour was done.
- 10:15SPEAKER_01: Uh maybe it ended this year, but yeah.

- 10:19SPEAKER_01: Time does is flying by, dude.

- 10:24SPEAKER_01: Well, the new album, but were they torn why the new album came out?
- 10:28SPEAKER_01: Or did they stop touring and put out the new album?
- 10:32SPEAKER_02: Hmm.
- 10:33SPEAKER_02: No, I think they're torn while they were putting it out.
- 10:37SPEAKER_02: I think it was out.
- 10:38SPEAKER_01: It was out why they were in time.
- 10:40SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 10:40SPEAKER_02: Hmm.
- 10:43SPEAKER_02: If only we did our research.
- 10:45SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 10:45SPEAKER_01: I mean, what is this?
- 10:47SPEAKER_01: Some kind of music show.
- 10:48SPEAKER_01: I don't know.

- 11:12SPEAKER_01: And I would be amazed if our list didn't have some of the same ones on them.
- 11:19SPEAKER_01: I would absolutely be amazed.
- 11:21SPEAKER_01: Um, it could be, could be.
- 11:23SPEAKER_01: Maybe, maybe not.
- 11:24SPEAKER_01: I I don't know.
- 11:25SPEAKER_01: I kind of went off the went off the rails a little bit.
- 11:29SPEAKER_01: And it probably does it for me.
- 11:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:32SPEAKER_01: But you never know.
- 11:33SPEAKER_01: You never know.
- 11:34SPEAKER_01: Who knows?

- 11:41SPEAKER_02: Now, are you gonna go and your favorite?
- 11:44SPEAKER_02: And the kind of um no, I'm not gonna do any work to your favorite, or it's just kind of no order whatsoever.
- 11:48SPEAKER_01: Just no order whatsoever.
- 11:50SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 11:51SPEAKER_01: Um, although the first one probably is my favorite, but it doesn't mean that the other ones aren't up there.
- 11:59SPEAKER_01: So my first one.
- 12:00SPEAKER_01: It's hard to pick your favorite.
- 12:02SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 12:02SPEAKER_01: I mean, there's a lot of music happening in the last 80 years.
- 12:06SPEAKER_01: So um are you that old?
- 12:09SPEAKER_01: No, no, no, no, no, almost.
- 12:12SPEAKER_01: So anyway, uh you like it, I'll tell you that.
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: My first one is uh Peter Frampton Comes Alive.

- 13:20SPEAKER_01: Um is that kind of up to date?
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: Like now?
- 13:24SPEAKER_01: It was yeah, I ran it uh a couple days ago on uh how many.
- 13:29SPEAKER_01: Well, actually, it's the R IAA Um Association.
- 13:35SPEAKER_02: I don't know what that means.
- 13:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's uh it's a um that's an outfit that keeps track of all sales and stuff.
- 13:42SPEAKER_02: Oh, how that's nice of them.
- 13:44SPEAKER_01: Yes, I thought so.
- 13:45SPEAKER_02: It saves me some work.
- 13:48SPEAKER_02: Um but my that was the first time I ever heard the talk box for guitar.
- 13:54SPEAKER_02: You know, baby, you know, uh, do you feel like we do?
- 13:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 14:00SPEAKER_02: That was so cool.
- 14:02SPEAKER_02: Oh, I think there was a kid that you know, high school, there's a lot of garage bands in high school, and one of the kids had a talk box.
- 14:10SPEAKER_02: Man, it was so I thought, man, that is so cool.
- 14:13SPEAKER_02: I wish I could get one of those things.
- 14:15SPEAKER_02: Did you ever get one?
- 14:18SPEAKER_02: No, I did not.
- 14:19SPEAKER_02: That's quite disappointing.
- 14:20SPEAKER_02: That is a dream unfulfilled by me.
- 14:23SPEAKER_02: Well, you still have time.
- 14:24SPEAKER_02: You still have time.
- 14:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I do.
- 14:26SPEAKER_01: Yes, you do.
- 14:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 14:28SPEAKER_02: And I mean, the other one that really wanted me get talk box is uh Nazareth, Hair of the Dog.
- 14:36SPEAKER_02: Talk boxing that, man.
- 14:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 14:41SPEAKER_02: Anyway, that was the first first time I ever heard Talkbox.
- 14:44SPEAKER_02: I don't think it was the first Talk Box ever, but it definitely made it popular.
- 14:49SPEAKER_02: It it did make it popular because man, that that's record that was everywhere.
- 14:54SPEAKER_02: Do you feel like we do was playing like everybody's car, everybody's radio?
- 15:00SPEAKER_02: Everybody was.
- 15:04SPEAKER_02: Oh, it's still great.
- 15:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's still great.
- 15:06SPEAKER_02: And it's funny how the live version is so much better than the studio version.
- 15:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 15:13SPEAKER_01: They did it, and however, let me that I don't want to burst your bubble here.
- 15:18SPEAKER_01: Oh no.
- 15:18SPEAKER_01: But there was some work done in the studio with some overdubs and stuff.
- 15:25SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 15:27SPEAKER_01: After they recorded the live to kind of clean up stuff.
- 15:31SPEAKER_01: Uh I don't want to hear that.
- 15:32SPEAKER_01: Some vocals, guitar parts were fixed, mistakes were uh unmistaken.
- 15:40SPEAKER_01: Just uh yeah, I wish I shouldn't have said anything.
- 15:43SPEAKER_01: I wish I could do that in real life, you know?
- 15:45SPEAKER_02: Just a mistake with a bring the guys in, let's uh clean that mistake up.
- 15:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you never know.
- 15:52SPEAKER_02: I mean uh never happened.
- 15:53SPEAKER_01: Never happened, yeah.
- 15:55SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 15:56SPEAKER_02: Well, you got you got one of mine already.
- 15:58SPEAKER_02: Now, one for me is the Almond Brothers at Fillmore East.
- 16:04SPEAKER_01: Ah, see, that's not even not even on the radar.
- 16:08SPEAKER_02: No, oh man, come on.
- 16:09SPEAKER_02: Not a big slide guitar.
- 16:12SPEAKER_02: With the slide guitar, whi whipping post was like one whole side of the album.
- 16:19SPEAKER_02: Oh, I love that song.
- 16:23SPEAKER_02: And do you know uh Dwayne Allman was killed in a car mic car accident shortly after that?
- 16:30SPEAKER_01: I believe I did, yes.
- 16:32SPEAKER_01: That was uh yeah, I hate to see any because uh and he was fairly young too, right?
- 16:38SPEAKER_02: Yes, he yeah, he was.
- 16:39SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that was that was that was devastating.
- 16:42SPEAKER_02: Any of those that's where yeah, yeah, and I mean at that point they were uh kind of a like a cult feeling, and they were kind of like you know, a regional band, and they just couldn't make it, and they decided, you know, well, let's go ahead and do a live album to get our you know our feel for how we are live.
- 17:02SPEAKER_02: And it after they did that live album, man, they just took off nationwide.
- 17:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't think I've actually even heard that album.
- 17:12SPEAKER_01: No, it's not a big Omni Brothers fan.
- 17:15SPEAKER_01: No?
- 17:15SPEAKER_01: I well, I probably heard a couple songs off the radio or something.
- 17:20SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
- 17:22SPEAKER_01: But I yeah, I haven't uh I never owned that album, never listened to it.
- 17:26SPEAKER_01: So well.
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: I apologize.
- 17:29SPEAKER_01: You're lost, Doug.
- 17:30SPEAKER_01: I it truly probably is.
- 17:32SPEAKER_01: Um this one's probably on your list as well.
- 17:36SPEAKER_01: I think I probably just stole everything that I knew your list, you know.
- 17:41SPEAKER_01: This one is um in the band store absolutely still uh torn today.
- 17:48SPEAKER_01: Um cheap trick live.
- 17:51SPEAKER_02: Oh Douglas!
- 17:52SPEAKER_01: Was that on your conversation?
- 17:53SPEAKER_01: Was that yours?
- 17:55SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 17:56SPEAKER_01: See?
- 17:57SPEAKER_01: I love that.
- 17:57SPEAKER_01: You should have hit that first.
- 18:00SPEAKER_01: I love that album.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that album came out in '78.
- 18:04SPEAKER_01: Uh it was never intended for a US release, interesting enough.
- 18:11SPEAKER_01: Uh, there was all kinds of bootleg and everything, so they decided, I think, to come out with it.
- 18:16SPEAKER_01: Um, because they were huge in Japan.
- 18:18SPEAKER_01: At that time, they were like the Beatles in Japan.
- 18:20SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 18:21SPEAKER_01: They were Beatles-esque, like a Beatle name.
- 18:24SPEAKER_01: They were filled with stadiums and everything.
- 18:27SPEAKER_01: Um, but uh did you know little little uh thing that um uh that the complete version wasn't that complete version wasn't on the album.
- 18:43SPEAKER_01: They were missing eight songs that they did.
- 18:47SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm sure they couldn't put it on one record.
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: Well, it wasn't a double.
- 18:52SPEAKER_01: No, double record, single record.
- 18:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they didn't have room on the record.
- 18:56SPEAKER_02: Vinyl was a little, you know, you had some uh what the okay, yeah, you had that little and I know uh like DJs in the United States kind of got a hold of the Japan release and they started playing it on the radio, and then it just started taking off.
- 19:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and it's another group where the live songs like Surrender, I Want You To Want Me, were so much better live than they were the studio versions.
- 19:27SPEAKER_02: Yep, yeah, like I want I Want You to Want Me, the studio version.
- 19:32SPEAKER_02: There's no way that thing's going anywhere.
- 19:34SPEAKER_02: No, but the live version was awesome.
- 19:37SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 19:38SPEAKER_02: And I remember in high school, this girl went and saw Cheap Trick after that album came out, and she had a Cheap Trick shirt on.
- 19:47SPEAKER_02: You know, they had Cheap Trick, Cheap Trick like twice, and man, she was inundated all day long when she wore that.
- 19:54SPEAKER_02: Where'd you get that, Chad?
- 19:55SPEAKER_02: Where'd you get that?
- 19:56SPEAKER_02: Did you see him?
- 19:57SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh, how did you see him?
- 20:00SPEAKER_02: Everybody loved him when that album came out.
- 20:03SPEAKER_02: Oh, awesome! I love Surrender's still one of my favorite songs, still one of my favorite songs.
- 20:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, it's a go-to.
- 20:10SPEAKER_01: Um who wouldn't love that?
- 20:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 20:13SPEAKER_01: Well, somebody somebody somebody probably didn't, yeah.
- 20:16SPEAKER_02: They didn't sell 318 million copies, yeah.
- 20:20SPEAKER_01: And it uh it got up to number four in the Billboard 200.
- 20:25SPEAKER_01: Nice way to go, cheap trick.
- 20:27SPEAKER_01: Which is uh actually pretty good for cheap trick.
- 20:31SPEAKER_01: I never knew why commercially they didn't have the success that I would have thought they had.
- 20:42SPEAKER_01: I mean, they're successful, don't get me wrong.
- 20:45SPEAKER_01: But I mean hit records, you know, stuff like that.
- 20:49SPEAKER_01: I thought they would have had more because they're they they were there's a lot of good songs, man.
- 20:54SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
- 20:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 20:56SPEAKER_02: I've bought in several of their albums over the years, like you know, like the 90s, 2000s, I can't remember the name of them, but they were all good.
- 21:06SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
- 21:06SPEAKER_02: And Dream Police.
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: Remember Dream Police?
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: That was a good album.
- 21:10SPEAKER_01: I think that was probably I imagine that was one of their biggest hits, the song Dream Police.
- 21:19SPEAKER_02: What about that other one that we did at your son's wedding?
- 21:24SPEAKER_02: What was that one?
- 21:26SPEAKER_01: Uh oh my gosh.
- 21:30SPEAKER_01: Well, to get back to you on that one.
- 21:32SPEAKER_01: What the heck was that?
- 21:33SPEAKER_01: I can't remember.
- 21:34SPEAKER_02: I'll have to look it up.
- 21:36SPEAKER_02: That was released in the 90s, wasn't it?
- 21:40SPEAKER_01: I'm pretty sure.
- 21:42SPEAKER_02: Anyway, all right.
- 21:44SPEAKER_02: Next one.
- 21:44SPEAKER_02: The one I have YouTube, or not YouTube U2, the you know, the number two, Under a Blood Red Sky in '83.
- 22:01SPEAKER_02: Now it didn't go up the charts.
- 22:03SPEAKER_02: I mean, it was like 28, I think.
- 22:05SPEAKER_02: Sold about 3 million.
- 22:07SPEAKER_02: And I don't remember why I bought the record.
- 22:10SPEAKER_02: Maybe somebody told me about it, but man, I bought the record and I heard Gloria.
- 22:15SPEAKER_02: Remember the song Gloria?
- 22:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 22:17SPEAKER_02: Oh, and I just fell in love with it.
- 22:19SPEAKER_02: I fell in love with all that.
- 22:21SPEAKER_02: And uh some of it was recorded at the Red Rock, you know, in Colorado.
- 22:25SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 22:26SPEAKER_02: Which is on my bucket list to go.
- 22:28SPEAKER_02: I like to go there too.
- 22:29SPEAKER_02: I want to see a show at Red Rock.
- 22:31SPEAKER_02: With the the the right show.
- 22:33SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 22:35SPEAKER_01: Well, I guess probably just to be there, maybe just to uh just to hear it.
- 22:42SPEAKER_02: The acoustics of the sitting in the audience, you can see like the you know, the Denver skyline and the lights at night.
- 22:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I think it's not that far.
- 22:56SPEAKER_02: It's not that far out there.
- 22:58SPEAKER_02: And you know, I didn't even know.
- 23:00SPEAKER_02: That's been around since like 69 or something.
- 23:03SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 23:04SPEAKER_02: Did you know that?
- 23:05SPEAKER_01: I think I heard about it in the 80s.
- 23:08SPEAKER_01: I know, but it's been around a long time.
- 23:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 23:11SPEAKER_01: Uh let's go back about a minute and a half.
- 23:14SPEAKER_01: That song was called The Flame.
- 23:16SPEAKER_02: That's it.
- 23:17SPEAKER_02: Boom! Flame.
- 23:18SPEAKER_02: I remember now.
- 23:19SPEAKER_02: What a go, Douglas! Ladies and gentlemen, give him 10 points for Douglas.
- 23:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I could I could count on you.
- 23:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 23:25SPEAKER_02: Counting you in that quick-looking finger of yours.
- 23:31SPEAKER_02: But anyway, um, back to uh you two.
- 23:36SPEAKER_02: I mean, Gloria Sunday, Bloody Sunday was on there.
- 23:39SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's a good song.
- 23:40SPEAKER_02: And then you have MTV who showed, you know, the Red Rock concert, even though the whole album was not recorded at Red Rock, by the way.
- 23:50SPEAKER_02: Well, that's a disappointment.
- 23:51SPEAKER_02: It was recorded like at Red Rock, Germany, and Boston.
- 23:53SPEAKER_02: But anyway, the video when Bono has the white flag and he's just waving it, walking on stage with the electric company playing, you know, they were playing and singing that.
- 24:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:04SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh, that is just like a burned in my brain.
- 24:07SPEAKER_02: Burned in my brain.
- 24:08SPEAKER_02: I love it.
- 24:10SPEAKER_02: Wasn't that what the steam was coming off of them too?
- 24:13SPEAKER_02: That was that wasn't.
- 24:14SPEAKER_02: Well, it was a rainy night.
- 24:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 24:15SPEAKER_02: It was very rainy night, it's kind of cold.
- 24:18SPEAKER_02: So yeah.
- 24:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:20SPEAKER_02: That's excellent.
- 24:21SPEAKER_02: If you ever get a chance, man, look that up.
- 24:23SPEAKER_02: Look that MTV concert up.
- 24:25SPEAKER_02: It's great.
- 24:27SPEAKER_02: Very good.
- 24:29SPEAKER_02: I think I've seen it.
- 24:30SPEAKER_02: You're up now, baby.
- 24:31SPEAKER_02: Well, this is one of the I saw it in the 80s, you know.
- 24:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:35SPEAKER_02: On the MTV, they showed it quite a bit.
- 24:37SPEAKER_01: I don't know if this will be on your list or not.
- 24:40SPEAKER_01: Uh one of my favorite bands growing up, uh, Kiss.
- 24:44SPEAKER_01: And their first live album came out in 75.
- 24:49SPEAKER_01: Um feature track was rocking.
- 24:51SPEAKER_01: Did you like the Oh yeah?
- 24:54SPEAKER_02: Did you like Kiss Alive, the first one or Kiss Alive 2?
- 24:58SPEAKER_02: Which is your favorite?
- 25:03SPEAKER_01: That's tough.
- 25:04SPEAKER_01: Because some of the good songs are on Kiss Alive 2.
- 25:07SPEAKER_01: I mean, not that there's not.
- 25:08SPEAKER_01: See, I'd go with Kiss Alive 2.
- 25:10SPEAKER_01: Well, the reason I chose Kiss Alive is because that that made them.
- 25:16SPEAKER_01: Because they were uh That's true.
- 25:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 25:18SPEAKER_01: They were going bankrupt.
- 25:21SPEAKER_01: Um Casablanca, their uh their record company was going bankrupt and that kind of that kind of pulled them out of it.
- 25:31SPEAKER_01: That that album also had some uh studio work done after.
- 25:40SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 25:41SPEAKER_01: Some more cheating.
- 25:42SPEAKER_01: Well known it was doctored, but it still captured the energy of a kiss show.
- 25:49SPEAKER_01: You ever seen them?
- 25:51SPEAKER_01: I've never seen them live.
- 25:53SPEAKER_01: I've seen them a couple times.
- 25:54SPEAKER_01: Once back in uh I think it was 76 when they were really, really popular, right?
- 26:01SPEAKER_01: Uh and then me and my son went I think around 2020 or 2019.
- 26:09SPEAKER_01: Whoa.
- 26:10SPEAKER_01: Uh around in there.
- 26:13SPEAKER_01: That was their next to last last uh reunion or concert tour.
- 26:19SPEAKER_01: So I think they had another one or two after.
- 26:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they did because they finished up, yeah, that wasn't the same tour, so they had at least one more This Is It tour after This Is It tour.
- 26:31SPEAKER_01: So, but they were good anyway.
- 26:33SPEAKER_01: So, yeah, sold at least four million copies, um, and uh kind of took them um took them to the I don't want to stay the stratosphere, but gave them that opportunity to stick around to to get bigger.
- 26:53SPEAKER_02: What do you think of uh uh Gene Simmons talking about the virtual tour where they would come up with these um like AI gin avatars, yes.
- 27:06SPEAKER_02: The avatars and and then taking you know and putting that on tour, these avatars going on stage.
- 27:12SPEAKER_02: Is that something you would ever even think about going to go see?
- 27:16SPEAKER_01: I would see it just once.
- 27:20SPEAKER_01: Um I wouldn't pay very much for it.
- 27:22SPEAKER_02: I don't know if it'd be like in a theater or what what kind of media I don't know how they do it, but it's supposedly be like on a stage, is what he's talking, but and that was your AI's gotta get better.
- 27:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 27:37SPEAKER_01: Um I don't know.
- 27:45SPEAKER_01: I I saw the avatars and what they look like.
- 27:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't know, man.
- 27:50SPEAKER_02: That's just I think they'd have to get a lot better.
- 27:54SPEAKER_02: They would have to get a lot better.
- 27:56SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and like you said, it'd have to be cheap.
- 27:58SPEAKER_02: I'm not paying you four hundred dollars to go watch an avatar.
- 28:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:04SPEAKER_01: I'll give you 35.
- 28:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so yeah, there you go.
- 28:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't know.
- 28:10SPEAKER_01: That would be interesting.
- 28:11SPEAKER_01: I think I would like just to see it.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: You know, just uh like give it like a two-minute thing on TV, see what it does.
- 28:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:21SPEAKER_01: Just to have, you know, I I don't know if I could sit.
- 28:24SPEAKER_01: It would to me would be like watching TV.
- 28:28SPEAKER_01: You're not there's no live thing going on.
- 28:31SPEAKER_01: They're playing music, they're not actually playing.
- 28:33SPEAKER_02: Exactly, because you know there would there would be no interaction between you and the, you know, because they're not gonna notice you're cheering or you're not cheering.
- 28:42SPEAKER_02: You could be quiet as a mouse and they'd still be playing the same stuff.
- 28:46SPEAKER_01: You never know with AI, man.
- 28:48SPEAKER_01: So they might yell at you.
- 28:51SPEAKER_01: Uh hold my hold my thought for right now, no.
- 28:55SPEAKER_01: Only because they're they should have ended it a while ago.
- 29:02SPEAKER_01: And this just perpetuates the the thing, right?
- 29:06SPEAKER_01: It just kind of keeps it going, and it's like now it's none of it is you, you know.
- 29:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's kind of like the bands that keep rolling, keep playing, and really there's no original members anymore.
- 29:17SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
- 29:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah, basic cover band, professional cover band, sir?
- 29:22SPEAKER_02: I don't think all right.
- 29:24SPEAKER_02: I have nine tonight by Bob Seeger.
- 29:28SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 29:29SPEAKER_02: Remember that?
- 29:30SPEAKER_02: Now he did.
- 29:31SPEAKER_02: This is his second live album.
- 29:32SPEAKER_02: The first one was Live Bullet in '75, or I don't think.
- 29:37SPEAKER_02: I remember that one.
- 29:37SPEAKER_01: I'm not sure if I were what was on the uh second one.
- 29:41SPEAKER_02: Oh, it had all of them.
- 29:42SPEAKER_02: Nine tonight, um, old time rock and roll, night moves, main street.
- 29:48SPEAKER_01: I wonder what I'm thinking of big hits because I I know I had uh live bullet um uh silver bullet band for uh album.
- 29:56SPEAKER_01: I liked him.
- 29:58SPEAKER_01: I bet I might have had it back in the day.
- 30:01SPEAKER_02: It was back in '81.
- 30:03SPEAKER_02: Probably.
- 30:04SPEAKER_02: In 81 is when you got it.
- 30:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 30:05SPEAKER_02: He went to number three.
- 30:06unknown: Yeah.
- 30:07SPEAKER_02: Well, about four million more young copies and made me a big, huge Bob Feger fan.
- 30:12SPEAKER_02: Bob Feger, Bob Seeger fan.
- 30:15SPEAKER_02: Easy for you to speak.
- 30:17SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 30:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I like him.
- 30:19SPEAKER_01: I you know I um I like his voice.
- 30:25SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 30:26SPEAKER_01: You know, so yeah, I liked him.
- 30:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, still do.
- 30:28SPEAKER_02: Did you know Nine Tonight was originally for Urban Cowboy?
- 30:31SPEAKER_02: Remember that?
- 30:32SPEAKER_02: John Travolta movie?
- 30:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 30:34SPEAKER_02: That's what that was written for.
- 30:36SPEAKER_02: Is that right?
- 30:37SPEAKER_02: Nine tonight, yeah.
- 30:38SPEAKER_02: I had no idea, man.
- 30:40SPEAKER_02: And here's a question for you.
- 30:42SPEAKER_02: What local boy was a big Bob Seager, played guitar on a lot of Bob Seager shows concerts.
- 30:50SPEAKER_02: You got it.
- 30:51SPEAKER_01: Mr.
- 30:51SPEAKER_01: Chatfield.
- 30:52SPEAKER_01: And for those that you don't know, uh Chatfield, Mr.
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: Chatfield.
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: Not from Columbus.
- 30:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he back in the uh back in the day day, he played in with the gods and then Rosie.
- 31:04SPEAKER_01: Uh so if you ever heard of those two bands, he was a guitar player in one of those.
- 31:09SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 31:09SPEAKER_01: And then uh he played uh he toured with Bob Seager as uh a hired gun.
- 31:14SPEAKER_01: A lot a hired gun.
- 31:15SPEAKER_01: A lot, yeah, for many years.
- 31:17SPEAKER_02: A lot, yeah.
- 31:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 31:18SPEAKER_02: It wasn't too long ago that he actually last time Bob Seager went on tour, he was with him.
- 31:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I think, yeah.
- 31:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 31:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 31:27SPEAKER_02: That's a good one.
- 31:28SPEAKER_02: I love that album.
- 31:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's a good album.
- 31:30SPEAKER_02: I was a big fan of Bob Seager.
- 31:34SPEAKER_01: I I liked him.
- 31:35SPEAKER_01: I mean, I was you know, more of a down the kiss road and you know, the sticks road.
- 31:42SPEAKER_01: But he he was I you know, as I got older and hit like 19, you know, I started 19.
- 31:50SPEAKER_02: You're an old man at that point.
- 31:52SPEAKER_02: Oh man, you you don't know the oh, you know what?
- 31:55SPEAKER_02: Uh just the interesting facts that just hit my head.
- 31:57SPEAKER_02: They were talking about um rock and roll.
- 32:00SPEAKER_02: Um I don't know if you want to call them rock and roll stars or whatever.
- 32:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 32:04SPEAKER_02: But before their average lifespan was like 40.
- 32:09SPEAKER_02: And now their average lifespan is 79.
- 32:14SPEAKER_02: That's incredible, actually.
- 32:16SPEAKER_01: That's well, they got them through the 60s.
- 32:18SPEAKER_01: A lot of uh probably a lot of a lot of them died early in the 60s and 70s.
- 32:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, a lot of drug action.
- 32:24SPEAKER_01: Now they got better drugs.
- 32:26SPEAKER_00: All right, so uh keep them alive.
- 32:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 32:30SPEAKER_01: I have instead of killing, the drugs are keeping them alive now.
- 32:33SPEAKER_01: That's right.
- 32:35SPEAKER_01: I have one.
- 32:36SPEAKER_01: It may be on your list.
- 32:38SPEAKER_01: I do not know.
- 32:39SPEAKER_01: Maybe.
- 32:40SPEAKER_01: Um this this is my opinion here.
- 32:45SPEAKER_01: It wasn't on any kind of because I kind of locked looked up top 50, top 100 live albums of all time.
- 32:54SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 32:54SPEAKER_01: And that spanned all kinds of genres.
- 32:58SPEAKER_01: And some of them I didn't even agree with, some of them never even heard of.
- 33:03SPEAKER_01: So I kind of just the list was the list, it is what it is, but I don't know where they got that stuff from.
- 33:13SPEAKER_01: But anyway, one of my favorites is uh by Pink, oh, by Pink Floyd.
- 33:22SPEAKER_01: And they had uh what was it, the live um wall album, right?
- 33:29SPEAKER_02: Oh, you know, I really wanted to see them doing that tour.
- 33:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but that's not the one I chose.
- 33:35SPEAKER_01: That is not that live album I chose.
- 33:37SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 33:38SPEAKER_01: I chose the pulse album from 1995.
- 33:43unknown: Wow.
- 33:45SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 33:46SPEAKER_01: Remember that had like the where was that recorded at?
- 33:49SPEAKER_02: Um that was overseas somewhere, wasn't it?
- 33:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 33:55SPEAKER_02: Uh I don't know.
- 33:57SPEAKER_02: Do you remember the concert they did when they were like in a floating thing out in the water?
- 34:03SPEAKER_02: I can't remember that was at, but it was they did a show like.
- 34:11SPEAKER_01: Um, I do not know where they made that album.
- 34:14SPEAKER_01: Um I apologize.
- 34:16SPEAKER_01: That actually reached number one in the building.
- 34:18SPEAKER_01: But I would think anything.
- 34:20SPEAKER_01: Did it?
- 34:21SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 34:21SPEAKER_01: I was surprised at that.
- 34:24SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 34:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 34:25SPEAKER_01: I am a big I love Pink Floyd.
- 34:27SPEAKER_01: I love a lot of their music.
- 34:28SPEAKER_01: I I just thought that was a fantastic album.
- 34:32SPEAKER_01: It sounded really, really good.
- 34:34SPEAKER_01: Like the sound quality and engineering on that was fantastic.
- 34:38SPEAKER_01: And I loved it.
- 34:39SPEAKER_01: I love Gilmore.
- 34:40SPEAKER_01: It was a box set, so it came with the video as well.
- 34:43SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 34:45SPEAKER_02: I know Gilmore.
- 34:46SPEAKER_02: I love Gilmore guitar riffs.
- 34:48SPEAKER_01: Oh, I did.
- 34:49SPEAKER_01: I just it's oh, it's fantastic.
- 34:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 34:52SPEAKER_01: So I thought I uh just throw that out there.
- 34:55SPEAKER_02: You sure did.
- 34:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 34:57SPEAKER_02: You threw it out and we hit it.
- 34:58SPEAKER_02: Boom.
- 34:59SPEAKER_02: Out of the park.
- 34:59SPEAKER_02: Out of the park, baby.
- 35:00SPEAKER_02: Out of the park.
- 35:01SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 35:02SPEAKER_02: One of my favorite bands growing up.
- 35:04SPEAKER_02: I don't listen to them a lot anymore.
- 35:05SPEAKER_02: Like I said before, that I probably got burned out on them, but Leonard Skinnard, one from the road.
- 35:11SPEAKER_02: I saw that.
- 35:13SPEAKER_02: And I love Freebird on that album.
- 35:15SPEAKER_02: That's so much better.
- 35:17SPEAKER_02: Freebird is so much better on that live album than the studio album.
- 35:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 35:23SPEAKER_02: And that's where you uh and I thought Sweet Home Alabama was too.
- 35:28SPEAKER_01: To me, that live version was better than the studio.
- 35:32SPEAKER_02: It's not on there, by the way.
- 35:34SPEAKER_01: I did hear live version somewhere.
- 35:37SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm sure they released something else, but it is not on the one from the road.
- 35:41SPEAKER_02: You would think it would be.
- 35:46SPEAKER_02: Interesting.
- 35:46SPEAKER_02: But that's where they that's where they came up with the um people that love Splendor Skinner remember.
- 35:54SPEAKER_02: What song do you want to hear?
- 35:56SPEAKER_02: Free! And that's from that record, man.
- 36:02SPEAKER_02: And they haven't stopped yet.
- 36:05SPEAKER_02: No, everybody says, what song do you want to hear?
- 36:09SPEAKER_02: And I actually played that song too for my my grandkids over the weekend.
- 36:14SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:15SPEAKER_02: And they were like, well, yeah, it's it's kind of long.
- 36:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:22SPEAKER_02: They said, why is it so long?
- 36:25SPEAKER_02: Because they're jamming.
- 36:30SPEAKER_02: And uh what I find funny is um um Steve Gaines uh replaced Eddie, you know, Ed King.
- 36:39SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:40SPEAKER_02: On that.
- 36:40SPEAKER_02: And that's kind of where he first was like um brought out to the crowds, you know, in that.
- 36:46SPEAKER_02: Oh, was it on that L right there?
- 36:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:49SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 36:50SPEAKER_02: And uh no pressure.
- 36:54SPEAKER_02: And he was like they brought him in because Ed was like kind of tired of all the turmoil going on in the band and the fighting, and I mean Ronnie Van's Ant was kind of a taskmaster and could be an ass.
- 37:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 37:10SPEAKER_02: He was yeah, especially when they all started drinking, man.
- 37:13SPEAKER_02: That's what he actually cut, he took a knife and cut one of the guitar players' hand.
- 37:19SPEAKER_02: Oh, that's brilliant.
- 37:20SPEAKER_02: Yeah, don't need that.
- 37:22SPEAKER_02: And then they had they had yeah, they had to play live and he couldn't play live.
- 37:26SPEAKER_02: So what are you doing?
- 37:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and that was um, you know, um I think it was like how many?
- 37:35SPEAKER_02: I'm trying to think how long ago.
- 37:37SPEAKER_02: They actually, you know, crashed in the plane.
- 37:41SPEAKER_02: Oh, like three days after.
- 37:43SPEAKER_02: Remember, Street Survivor came out?
- 37:45SPEAKER_02: Their last studio album came out.
- 37:47SPEAKER_02: I do not.
- 37:48SPEAKER_02: Do you remember that?
- 37:49SPEAKER_02: No.
- 37:50SPEAKER_02: And they um Street Survivor came out, last studio album, and they had the guys all standing there in flames, like flames going up around them.
- 37:59SPEAKER_02: Well, didn't they didn't they take uh recall that the original release?
- 38:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah, they after they crashed, they took it back out.
- 38:07SPEAKER_02: So yeah, and they changed the cover around.
- 38:09SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 38:10SPEAKER_02: Because it was kind of in bad taste, and yeah, exactly in bad taste.
- 38:14SPEAKER_02: But then poor old uh um Gaines, Steve Gaines, he died in that crane plane crash, so he is short-lived with the uh Leonard Skinner band.
- 38:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's too bad, man.
- 38:28SPEAKER_02: And his sister.
- 38:30SPEAKER_01: Oh, sister.
- 38:31SPEAKER_02: His sister was also, she was a backup singer, and she also perished in that crash.
- 38:36SPEAKER_01: Well, there's people other than the band members on that plane.
- 38:40SPEAKER_02: Um, let's see.
- 38:41SPEAKER_02: Um Ronnie passed away, Steve and Cassie, the two pilots passed away, and the road manager all would all um did not make the plane crash.
- 38:53SPEAKER_00: Hmm.
- 38:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's too bad.
- 38:58SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it is sad.
- 38:59SPEAKER_02: I'm glad it, you know.
- 39:01SPEAKER_02: Uh brought you down, alright.
- 39:04SPEAKER_01: Let's do a happy, happy thing now.

- 39:50SPEAKER_01: Um, you will uh enjoy this one.
- 39:56SPEAKER_01: Um that band had absolutely no overdubs, no in studio corrections.
- 40:07SPEAKER_00: No.
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: What you heard is what they played live, which was brilliant.
- 40:14SPEAKER_01: That was that was what you heard when you were there.
- 40:16SPEAKER_01: No overdubs, no fixes, nothing, man.
- 40:20SPEAKER_02: They're like machines.
- 40:20SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they were all oh yeah, they're excellent musicians.
- 40:24SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 40:24SPEAKER_02: Excellent musicians.
- 40:25SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 40:26SPEAKER_02: And they'd push the envelope, they would try and get you know more and more.
- 40:29SPEAKER_02: Oh, they didn't just want to, you know.
- 40:32SPEAKER_01: Uh they're they're one of my favorite groups of all time.
- 40:36SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 40:36SPEAKER_02: I've seen them a number of times.
- 40:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, me too.
- 40:38SPEAKER_02: I actually saw them on the last tour with um with Neil.
- 40:42SPEAKER_02: Neil, yeah.
- 40:43SPEAKER_02: I saw them on the Presto tour.
- 40:46SPEAKER_01: There was there was a few albums there where they got too sensey, you know.
- 40:52SPEAKER_01: Um I know um yeah.
- 40:57SPEAKER_02: Uh Alex Lifeson did not like those records.
- 41:00SPEAKER_01: No, he couldn't eat well, he always said he could he couldn't figure out a way to fit in.
- 41:05unknown: Yeah.
- 41:06SPEAKER_01: Because all the sense went over.
- 41:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 41:11SPEAKER_02: But that's what Getty wanted, so they went ahead and did it.
- 41:14SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 41:16SPEAKER_02: Um my last one I hear from I have is uh Welcome to the Club by Ian Hunter.
- 41:25SPEAKER_02: Uh okay.
- 41:25SPEAKER_02: Do you remember that at all?
- 41:26SPEAKER_02: No.
- 41:27SPEAKER_02: I was never a big Ian Hunter fan.
- 41:29SPEAKER_02: Oh, I loved Ian Hunter.
- 41:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 41:31SPEAKER_02: Love Mata Hoople.
- 41:33SPEAKER_02: Love Matha Hoople.
- 41:36SPEAKER_02: And one of my one of my favorite, all-time favorite songs is by Mata Hoople Saturday Gigs.
- 41:42SPEAKER_02: Do you remember that song at all?
- 41:43SPEAKER_02: No, I do not.
- 41:44SPEAKER_02: Oh.
- 41:45SPEAKER_02: Love that.
- 41:46SPEAKER_02: And it was kind of um Ian Hunter wrote that song to kind of say, you know, I'm out of here.
- 41:52SPEAKER_02: I'm done.
- 41:53SPEAKER_02: Farewell to Martha Hoople.
- 41:55SPEAKER_02: I'm gone on my own.
- 41:57SPEAKER_01: And did he?
- 41:59SPEAKER_02: He did.
- 42:00SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 42:01SPEAKER_02: And then years later, he did this live album.
- 42:06SPEAKER_02: It was that at the 1980s when it came out in the Roxy uh theater in Hollywood.
- 42:13SPEAKER_02: And uh Mick Ronson.
- 42:15SPEAKER_02: Do you remember Mick?
- 42:17SPEAKER_02: Ronson, guitar player, producer, multiplayer.
- 42:22SPEAKER_02: He actually um David Bowie.
- 42:24SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 42:25SPEAKER_02: He worked with David Bowie, he worked with Dylan, he worked with John Mellencamp.
- 42:30SPEAKER_02: Was he a producer?
- 42:34SPEAKER_02: And a guitar player.
- 42:35SPEAKER_02: Excellent guitar player.
- 42:36SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 42:37SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 42:37SPEAKER_02: He's the one Jack and Diane came with that drum drum bit in the middle there.
- 42:43SPEAKER_01: Say he was a drummer.
- 42:45SPEAKER_02: He's the one that told him to no, but he's the one that said, hey, let's put this drum.
- 42:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah, let's put this drum thing in.
- 42:50SPEAKER_02: You know, and Melancham said, What are you freaking crazy?
- 42:54SPEAKER_01: Oh, you know what?
- 42:55SPEAKER_01: Yes, that was um, well, who was the drummer?
- 43:00SPEAKER_01: Because I saw an interview with him, and he um he he said that he goes, You gotta put come up with a fill.
- 43:07SPEAKER_01: You know, it's like in the middle of the song.
- 43:08SPEAKER_01: He's like, What?
- 43:10SPEAKER_01: And he was yeah, he was trying to make his way at that point.
- 43:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 43:13SPEAKER_01: Oh, by the way, it's it has to be recognizable because that's you know, blah, blah, blah.
- 43:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 43:20SPEAKER_02: I remember that that same one where he was like walking to the drum set.
- 43:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 43:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 43:25SPEAKER_02: So he's like drunk walking to the drum set, and they're saying, Oh my gosh, they want me to do a fill.
- 43:30SPEAKER_02: What am I gonna put in there?
- 43:31SPEAKER_02: This doesn't make sense.
- 43:33SPEAKER_02: Yeah, how am I gonna put a drum in?
- 43:35SPEAKER_02: And he just came up with that.
- 43:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 43:40SPEAKER_01: That's all it took.
- 43:41SPEAKER_01: Ready to go, buddy.
- 43:42SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 43:43SPEAKER_01: So he started his career.
- 43:45SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he played with a lot of people.
- 43:47SPEAKER_02: Plus, plus, I don't I don't know if you remember on that Welcome to the Club, he had like four new tracks, and one of them was Man of War.
- 43:55SPEAKER_02: Do you remember Man of War?
- 43:57SPEAKER_02: I remember Man of War.
- 43:58SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 44:01SPEAKER_02: We actually did it for a while.
- 44:03SPEAKER_02: Remember Rosie back to Chatfield, back to Bob Dylan.
- 44:08SPEAKER_02: They did that song.
- 44:10SPEAKER_02: They used to do that live in the clubs.
- 44:13SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 44:14SPEAKER_02: I love I like that song.
- 44:15SPEAKER_02: I like it.
- 44:16SPEAKER_01: Did Dylan write it?
- 44:19SPEAKER_02: No.
- 44:20SPEAKER_02: Ian.
- 44:20SPEAKER_02: That was Ian Hunter.
- 44:21SPEAKER_02: Well, you said back to Dylan.
- 44:24SPEAKER_02: No, Bob Seeger.
- 44:27SPEAKER_02: I must have been misquoted there.
- 44:31SPEAKER_02: What?
- 44:33SPEAKER_02: All you misheard.
- 44:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 44:36SPEAKER_02: All you miss heard what I said.
- 44:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 44:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 44:39SPEAKER_02: I said Bob Seeger.
- 44:46SPEAKER_02: Anyway, so.
- 44:47SPEAKER_02: But that that goes back to how much connection, like all these bands somehow are connected together.
- 44:54SPEAKER_01: Oh, it's it's uh that uh what is that seven six six degrees of uh bacon.
- 45:02SPEAKER_01: Kevin Bacon.
- 45:03SPEAKER_01: Kevin Bacon, yeah.
- 45:05SPEAKER_01: So there's something.
- 45:07SPEAKER_01: Anyway, there you go.
- 45:08SPEAKER_01: At some point, you probably everybody knows everybody.
- 45:12SPEAKER_01: You know.
- 45:14SPEAKER_01: But uh so anyway, I don't know.
- 45:17SPEAKER_02: I'm not gonna say that that's the last one I have on my list.
- 45:20SPEAKER_01: All right, I got one more as well.
- 45:23SPEAKER_01: Okay, and uh I took the well, I just I just did it.
- 45:33SPEAKER_01: Let's just do that.
- 45:34SPEAKER_01: It's another rush one.
- 45:36SPEAKER_01: Uh exit stage left from 81.
- 45:40SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 45:41SPEAKER_01: 81.
- 45:42SPEAKER_01: Yes, that was a fantastic album as well.
- 45:45SPEAKER_01: Um and there was some um cover art mystery, because it had the if you remember that album had um uh every something from every their all their past albums.
- 46:01SPEAKER_01: So it had the owl, it had all kinds of stuff where it was, you know, the the uh like the Presto or not Presto, was it Presto?
- 46:10SPEAKER_01: No, what Presto wasn't out yet.
- 46:12SPEAKER_01: It was um you know, the the curtain, the stage curtains, and you have people out there and everything, and that yeah, it was there was every album that came out, that artwork is somewhere in that album cover.
- 46:27SPEAKER_02: Oh, how cool!
- 46:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and there's the Easter egg for for uh fans to hunt it down.
- 46:32SPEAKER_02: So you know who does not like Rush?
- 46:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 46:38SPEAKER_02: The runaways.
- 46:40SPEAKER_02: They don't like Rush.
- 46:42SPEAKER_02: No, they do not.
- 46:44SPEAKER_02: You know why?
- 46:45SPEAKER_02: Why they opened up for Rush on one of their tours, and Rush used to kind of make fun of them.
- 46:51SPEAKER_02: That's probably why they brought them along.
- 46:55SPEAKER_02: Because, you know, I mean when they first started out, let's be real, they weren't very good as far as the musicians.
- 47:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 47:02SPEAKER_02: And Rush, you know, that's their big thing.
- 47:06SPEAKER_02: Is you know, playing guitar, bass, drums, everything has got to be great.
- 47:11SPEAKER_02: Perfect.
- 47:11SPEAKER_02: And so they would they would yeah, they would watch them off the stage and they would kind of laugh at them.
- 47:19SPEAKER_02: So the runaways do not like rush.
- 47:23SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 47:23SPEAKER_02: I did not know that.
- 47:24SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know not.
- 47:27SPEAKER_02: And Alex and them can kind of say, no, we weren't laughing at them.
- 47:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah, we were laughing with them, I guess.
- 47:35SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 47:37SPEAKER_02: We love the runaways.
- 47:39SPEAKER_02: Joan Jet is great, yeah.
- 47:42SPEAKER_01: Oh, uh But if you ever listen to them, it's pretty simple music.
- 47:45SPEAKER_01: Runaways.
- 47:46SPEAKER_01: Well, it's just rock, three chord rock.
- 47:49SPEAKER_01: I mean, yeah, it's just uh it's back like the punk days, you know.
- 47:53SPEAKER_01: Um so anyway, uh I do my thing with uh Joan, don't don't get mad at me.
- 47:58SPEAKER_01: I love you.
- 47:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no, don't yeah.
- 48:00SPEAKER_01: She's like I love you, Joan.
- 48:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I do.
- 48:03SPEAKER_01: I I like the runaways too.
- 48:05SPEAKER_01: That was uh something different.
- 48:07SPEAKER_01: Cherry bomb?
- 48:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they were different.
- 48:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's I think that's what you know.
- 48:12SPEAKER_01: So uh Excess Stage left.
- 48:15SPEAKER_01: Actually, and I did not know this, is they peaked at number 10 on the Billboard.
- 48:23SPEAKER_01: And that's amazing to me.
- 48:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course they were all guys buying that.
- 48:31SPEAKER_01: What they say with Annika playing drums with them now.
- 48:34SPEAKER_01: Or I was looking at an interview with them.
- 48:37SPEAKER_01: Um, they said they uh they with Annika playing drums, the new drummer, um, and increase the uh the female population of the concerts by a hundred percent.
- 48:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 48:49SPEAKER_01: Oh, they joke about that all the time.
- 48:51SPEAKER_01: It's funny.
- 48:52SPEAKER_02: Yeah, absolutely funny.
- 48:53SPEAKER_02: Because I went and saw them, I can't remember what show it was.
- 48:56SPEAKER_02: It was one of the shows later on in life, but they would always put the videos, you know, up like before the show.
- 49:03SPEAKER_02: They would show them backstage and come running out, and at the end of the show, they had to put the video up and they're running back, you know, off stage.
- 49:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and you hear uh Lifeson go, Oh my gosh, did you see that?
- 49:17SPEAKER_02: There was like four women out there.
- 49:21SPEAKER_02: And Getty goes, Man, that must be a new rush record.
- 49:24SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 49:25SPEAKER_01: Oh, they have a great sense of humor, man.
- 49:27SPEAKER_01: They just really do.
- 49:28SPEAKER_01: They just yeah, they like to make fun of themselves.
- 49:32SPEAKER_01: But uh, so that's all I got.
- 49:34SPEAKER_01: However, I do have tidbits tidbits.
- 49:40SPEAKER_01: Tell me about those tidbits.
- 49:44SPEAKER_01: So, some tidbits.
- 49:47SPEAKER_01: Tedbits! Woo! That guy right in there.
- 49:49SPEAKER_01: Um tidbits.
- 49:51SPEAKER_01: I got what, yeah.
- 49:53SPEAKER_01: I got two tidbits that I thought was kind of fascinating.
- 49:57SPEAKER_01: Uh, one was uh back to the Peter Frampton comes a live album.
- 50:02SPEAKER_01: That picture on the album Mahem was not posed.
- 50:07SPEAKER_01: It was caught from his live show.
- 50:09SPEAKER_01: It was caught by a live show from uh uh I'll give a credit to Peter Kagan uh at a concert in Long Island.
- 50:17SPEAKER_01: Took that picture of him and it ended up on the on the album, and it was probably the most recognizable album of the day with him on it.
- 50:28SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
- 50:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah, 76.
- 50:29SPEAKER_02: That was everywhere.
- 50:30SPEAKER_02: Everywhere.
- 50:31SPEAKER_01: But all you had to do is see his picture and you knew what album that was.
- 50:35SPEAKER_02: Do you remember uh the Rolling Stone album or the Rolling Stones cover that kind of kind of hurt him where he's trying to be real sexy?
- 50:44SPEAKER_02: And I think he either had his shirt off or he had it really unbuttoned, and people were really taken back and said, Well, why is this guy doing that?
- 50:52SPEAKER_02: Why is he trying to be sexy?

- 55:28SPEAKER_01: Um came up with some good bass runs.
- 55:32SPEAKER_01: Uh and you know, more and more than any fit the fit the song.
- 55:37SPEAKER_01: You know, it uh you ever heard the turn, you know, musicians say service the song.
- 55:44SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 55:45SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 55:46SPEAKER_01: Which means, you know, if the song doesn't need it, you don't have to play like blazing fast, a hundred notes per second.
- 55:54SPEAKER_01: You know, just play a melodic melody with your lead and that fits.
- 55:58SPEAKER_01: Whatever services the song.
- 55:59SPEAKER_01: Or no, no lead, whatever the song better.
- 56:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah, whatever services the song, not you.
- 56:06SPEAKER_01: So you know, there's a lot of truth to that, man.
- 56:09SPEAKER_01: It is true.
- 56:10SPEAKER_01: But uh I think it's very true.
