GARY WRIGHT 'THE LOST INTERVIEWS' EPISODE 4 with RAY SHASHO Gary Wright (April 26, 1943 – September 4, 2023)   Gary Wright is a celestial keyboard virtuoso, idyllic songwriter, and vocalist with powerful soulful pipes. Wright is an innovator of the synthesizer and over the years has managed to condense his many synthesized melodies into a single keyboard strapped around his neck. Although born and raised in Cresskill, New Jersey, Wright founded the British rock group Spooky Tooth in 1967. Wright would later become most recognized for his two solo hit singles “Dream Weaver” in 1975 and “Love Is Alive” in 1976.  Gary Wright will be joining the ‘Sail Rock 2013' tour along with Christopher Cross, Orleans, Firefall, John Ford Coley, Robbie Dupree and Player beginning August 5th in West Allis, Wisconsin. Visit Pollstar.com for all the latest concert dates.  SPOOKY TOOTH: Gary Wright joined the band 'Art' in 1967. The ‘V.I.P.'S' morphed into 'Art' after several lineup changes since its inception in 1963. The British R&B music ensemble had featured various distinguished musicians including Mike Harrison, Greg Ridley, Jimmy Henshaw, Keith Emerson, Luther Grosvenor, Walter Johnstone and Mike Kellie.  Keith Emerson (The Nice, ELP) left in 1967 when the name was changed to Art. The band eventually turned into Spooky Tooth with a lineup of Wright (organ, keyboards, and vocals), Harrison (vocals, keyboards) Ridley (bassist), Grosvenor (guitar, vocals) and Kellie (drums). In 1968, Spooky Tooth released their debut album entitled … It's All About. The album featured covers by Janis Ian and Bob Dylan. Most of the other tracks were either written or co-written by Gary Wright. The bands next release Spooky Two (1969) released on Island Records was hailed by critics as one of their finest recordings. The album featured many of the bands standards including “Evil Woman” and “Better by You, Better Than Me” a tune written by Wright and eventually covered by Judas Priest in 1978. Spooky Tooth quickly became a highly sought concert attraction and a mainstay on progressive rock radio. The band shared the stage with such legendary music acts as Jimi Hendrix and The Rolling Stones. Bassist Greg Ridley left in 1969 to join Humble Pie, Andy Leigh replaced him.  Also in 1969, the group released Ceremony (Spooky Tooth and Pierre Henry album) a progressive collaboration with the French electronic composer. Session musician: Wright left Spooky Tooth briefly to produce albums for Traffic and Rolling Stones producer Jimmy Miller and his production company. Gary Wright became an esteemed session musician and was asked to play on George Harrison's triple- album set All Things Must Pass (1970). Wright and Harrison began a long lasting friendship and musical collaboration that included Wright playing or sharing songwriting tasks on several of Harrison's subsequent albums including … Living in the Material World (1973), Dark Horse (1974), Extra Texture (Read All About It)(1975), Thirty Three & 1/3(1976), George Harrison(1979), Cloud Nine (1987). The Last Puff album (1970) primarily featured Mike Harrison while Wright focused on other projects. The release featured an incredible cover version of The Beatles, “I Am The Walrus.” Joe Cocker Grease Band members Henry McCullough, Chris Stainton and Alan Spenner were brought into the studio to work on the album. In 1971, Gary Wright performed “Two Faced Man” with George Harrison on the Dick Cavett Show. He also played piano on Harry Nilsson's #1 hit, a Badfinger cover tune entitled, “Without You.” In 1972, Gary Wright and Mike Harrison reformed Spooky Tooth with a different lineup. The new lineup featured future Foreigner founder and guitarist Mick Jones. Subsequent Spooky Tooth albums … (You Broke My Heart So I Busted Your Jaw (1973), Witness (1973), The Mirror (1974) and Cross Purpose (1999) (Reunion album without Wright, Greg Ridley returned). Spooky Tooth disbanded in 1974. Gary Wright and George Harrison visited India in 1974 as a guest of Ravi Shankar. Wright developed a long-term relationship with Shankar after the visit. SOLO CAREER: Gary Wright released two critically acclaimed solo albums on A&M Records … Extraction in 1971 and Footprint in 1972. Wright signed a record deal with Warner Brothers Records in 1974 and achieved his biggest commercial success with the release of The Dream Weaver album (1975). The single “Dream Weaver” reached #2 on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart and #1 on the Cash Box charts. The album also spawned the hit “Love is Alive” (1976) reaching #2 on Billboard's singles chart. The album peaked at #7 on Billboard's Hot 100 albums chart. The song “Dream Weaver” has been spotlighted on numerous television shows and motion pictures. “Love is Alive” was covered by several legendary artists including … Chaka Khan, Joe Cocker and Richie Havens.  The Dream Weaver album featured guest musicians …guitarist Ronnie Montrose, drummers Jim Keltner and Andy Newmark, Hammond organist David Foster and Bobby Lyle on additional synthesizers. In 1981, Gary Wright scored again commercially with “Really Wanna Know You” (#16 Billboard Singles Hit). Gary Wright Solo albums … Extraction (1971), Footprint (1972), The Dream Weaver (1975), The Light of Smiles(1977), Touch and Gone (1978), Headin' Home (1979), The Right Place (1981), Who I Am (1988), First Signs of Life (1995), Human Love (1999), Waiting to Catch the Light (2008), The Light of a Million Suns (EP) (2008), Connected (2010). In 2004, Wright, Harrison and Kellie reunited Spooky Tooth for several concerts in Germany. As a result of their triumphant return, they released the Nomad Poets DVD in 2007. The same lineup played a series of European dates in 2008. Most recently: Gary Wright toured with Ringo Starr and His All-Star Band in 2008. In 2010, Wright released his latest studio album entitled Connected and features guest artists … Ringo Starr, Joe Walsh and Jeff “Skunk” Baxter. Gary Wright is currently writing his 'memoir' for the Penguin Group and should be available sometime near the end of 2014. I had the great pleasure of chatting with Gary Wright recently about ‘Sail Rock 2013,' Spooky Tooth, George Harrison, the music business, metaphysics and much-much more.   Support us on PayPal!

'SUSANNA HOFFS BANGLES LEGEND THE LOST INTERVIEWS' Susanna Hoffs is the beautiful, talented & iconic vocalist for the commercially successful all- female pop/rock/new wave/ band ‘The Bangles.' Hoffs angelic and awe-inspiring vocals are definitive on such Bangles classics as …“Manic Monday” (1985 #2 US Billboard Hit), “Walk Like an Egyptian” (1986 #1 US Billboard Hit), “If She Knew What She Wants” (1986 #29 US Billboard Hit), “Hazy Shade of Winter” (1987 #2 US Billboard Hit), “Walking Down Your Street” (1987 #11 US Billboard Hit),“In Your Room” (1988 #5 US Billboard Hit), and the breathtaking “Eternal Flame” (1988 #1 US Billboard Hit). Hoffs is also ‘The Bangles' rhythm guitarist and songwriter. THE BANGS: After Susanna Hoffs graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, where she studied theatre, dance, and art, she headed back to Los Angeles and placed an ad in The Recycler, an LA based classifieds newspaper. A trio began to form with the addition of Sisters Vicky Peterson (vocals/guitars) and Debbi Peterson (vocals/drums) while subsequently adding Annette Zilinskas on bass. After short stints with names such as ‘The Colours' and ‘The Supersonic Bangs,' the newly formed all-girl band eventually settled on ‘The Bangs' while swiftly becoming a vital part of the Los Angeles Paisley Underground scene. The Bangs debut single “Getting Out of Hand” was released on their label DownKiddie Records and caught the attention of KROQ deejay Rodney Bingenheimer who repeatedly played the record on his show. THE BANGLES: ‘The Bangs' were auspiciously mandated to change their name so the group dropped ‘The' and added the letters ‘les' to form ‘Bangles,' a banner that would flourish into one of the greatest all-female groups in rock and roll history. In 1982, under new manager Miles Copeland, The Bangles supported The English Beat on a UK tour. In 1983, the group made its first appearance on Dick Clark's American Bandstand. In 1984, ‘All Over the Place,' The Bangles first full-length album was released on CBS (Columbia) Records. Michael Steele had replaced Annette Zilinskas on bass. Steele began her music career as Micki Steele with The Runaways. ‘All Over the Place,' spawned the singles”Hero Takes a Fall,” and “Going Down to Liverpool” which featured Susanna's childhood neighbor and family friend Leonard Nimoy. The Bangles popularity escalated and was asked to join such acts as ‘Cyndi Lauper' and ‘Huey Lewis and the News' on tour.   Susanna Hoffs and The Bangles had captivated the attention of R&B/Pop/Funk/ music artist & songwriter ‘Prince.' Prince offered his penned single “Manic Monday” (1984) to The Bangles and the group promptly brought the tune into the recording studio. “Manic Monday” (1986) became The Bangles first big hit peaking at #2 on Billboards US Charts. Their second studio album ‘Different Light' (1986) produced by David Kahne peaked at #2 on the US Billboard Charts and is considered to be their most successful to date. Also in 1986, The Bangles opened for 'Queen' at Slane Castle, Ireland.   In 1987, “Walk like an Egyptian” won Best Video at the 15th Annual Music Awards and again at the 5th Annual American Video Awards. ‘Everything' (1988) The Bangles third studio album spawned the Top 5 Hit “In Your Room,” and their worldwide #1 single “Eternal Flame” penned by Susanna Hoffs, Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly. The Bangles attained a well-deserved hiatus throughout the 90's but returned with rock and roll vengeance in 1999. They released their fourth studio album entitled ‘Doll Revolution' in 2003. Bassist Michael Steele officially left The Bangles in 2005 and the band decided to use guest bassists while on tour. The Bangles most recent album ‘Sweetheart of the Sun' was released in 2011. In January of 2014, The Bangles returned to the legendary Whisky A GO GO to celebrate the club's 50th anniversary. SUSANNA HOFFS: In 1991, Susanna released her debut solo album entitled ‘When You're a Boy' produced by David Kahne. The album spawned the Top 40 hit single “My Side of the Bed.” The release featured such musical luminaries as John Entwistle, Jim Keltner, and Donovan. In 1996, Susanna Hoffs released her second studio album entitled ‘Susanna Hoffs.' Based on a Saturday Night Live stint in the early 1990's, Hoffs performed in the band ‘Ming Tea' with … Mike Myers, Matthew Sweet, Christopher Ward and Stuart Johnson. The SNL skit morphed into a three comedy film series ... Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999), and Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002). Jay Roach, Susanna's husband directed the Austin Power series and ‘Ming Tea' performed in all three movies. In 2006, Susanna collaborated with alternative rocker Matthew Sweet under the name ‘Sid n Susie,' and released ‘Under the Covers' Volumes 1, 2 &3 featuring classic rock cover songs of the 60's,70's, and 80's. In 2012, Susanna released her critically-acclaimed studio album entitled ‘Someday.' Susanna's vocals are more radiant than ever. Hoffs collaborated with musical partner Andrew Brassell and producer Mitchell Froom on her best solo album to date. All the tracks are co-penned by Susanna Hoffs. Hoffs & Brassell continue to co-write music and hope to release a new album sometime in 2015. ‘Susanna Hoffs' performs at The Satellite in Los Angeles on July 18th with special guests Fred Armisen and Petra Haden. ‘The Bangles' kicked off their summer concert series on June 6th at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, California … click [Here] for a complete ‘Bangles' tour listing.

ROGER McGUINN LOST INTERVIEWS EPISODE 1 The Byrds become Roger McGuinn (lead guitars and vocals), Gene Clark (tambourine, vocals), David Crosby (rhythm guitars and vocals), Chris Hillman (bass guitar and vocals) and Michael Clarke (drums). Columbia Records signed The Byrds in 1965 and they recorded their first number one hit, a Bob Dylan penned song, “Mr. Tambourine Man.” The Byrds continued to score big commercially with their 1965 classic that was adapted from the book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible, “Turn! Turn! Turn!” “I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better,” was another huge hit for the group in 1965 featuring McGuinn's trademark jangling 12-string Rickenbacker. “Eight Miles High” was The Byrds 1966 Top 20 Psychedelic classic and “Mr. Spaceman” reached #36 on Billboard's Top 100, both were featured on their Fifth Dimension album.” Dylan's penned, “My Back Pages” released in 1967 #30 and “So You Want To Be A Rock ‘N' Roll Star,” also released in 1967 was a #29 Billboard Top 100 hit. Gene Clark left the band in 1966. David Crosby and Michael Clarke departed in late 1967. In 1968, Gram Parsons was hired and The Byrds recorded their critically acclaimed release, “Sweetheart of the Rodeo.” Later in 1968, Hillman and Parsons left. In 1969, The Byrds recorded “Ballad of Easy Rider” for a film starring Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper. McGuinn also co-wrote, “Chestnut Mare” with Jacques Levy in 1969, a song intended to be featured in a musical inspired by Henrik Ibsen's Peer Gynt. McGuinn led several Byrds lineups until 1973 when the original quintet reunited and then disbanded after the release of their 12th and final album Byrds. Roger McGuinn rejoined Gene Clark and Chris Hillman in 1978 and recorded three successful albums for Capitol Records. In 1981, McGuinn returned to his folk roots and began to tour acoustically as a solo artist. McGuinn, Crosby and Hillman performed as The Byrds in 1989 and 1990 and recorded four new songs for their box set released in 1991. The Byrds were also inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.

PETE BEST WHERE HAVE ALL THE ROCK STARS GONE? Rock and Roll, the Blues, and Jazz are America's contribution to the arts, so why are we not fighting to preserve our own musical legacy and culture? Rooted from the early blues pioneers, the longevity of rock and roll is second to none. But strangely enough those legendary rock heroes that we were so accustomed to hearing every time we turned on our radios had mysteriously vanished from the mainstream. The music of the 1960's, 70's and even the 80's was an important juncture in all of our lives. So many of us timeline life's precious moments with the music we remember, when the music was so great, when the music mattered. The baby-boomer generation is financially imperative yet many of its entertainment standards have been renounced. One day, the plug was pulled on those legendary music artists. Hackers began stealing music across the internet. Online music stores popularized cheap digital singles and neglected to promote full-length albums. Radio stations changed formats to accommodate talk show radio jocks while rappers and electronic dance music menaced the airwaves. Notorious record companies began folding in droves. Record companies and radio stations that were once owned and operated by visionaries were now run by accountants and lawyers and the music world began promoting untalented wannabes. The economy plummeted, and radio stations became more concerned about how many consecutive commercials they could run instead of providing quality radio programming and entertainment value. Radio stations became corporate machines leaving no room for innovation. Throughout the 2000s, recording studios and live performances began using an audio processor called "Auto-Tune" to disguise off-key inaccuracies in vocal tracks. The device allowed virtually anyone without music skills to become a singer and new waves of mainstream radio stars were instantly fabricated. The business of music became stronger and more important than the art of music. For more than a decade, I've been on a rock and roll pilgrimage to help promote and save the greatest music the world has ever known. Before the internet and Napster, virtuoso musicians traditionally introduced their music by way of mainstream radio stations while anxious music enthusiasts hurried to their favorite record stores and purchased a copy of the artist's latest release. Talk radio wasn't popular because there was way too much great music to play over the airwaves. Advertisers didn't rule the airwaves, the music did. Rock legends toured the world to promote their latest albums and prices of concert tickets were extremely affordable. Proficient musicians, singers, and songwriters are what made the music so great.

Frank HannonAs a founding member of Tesla, guitarist Frank Hannon sold millions of albums with rock-radio hits “Modern Day Cowboy,” “Little Suzi,” “Love Song,” “Signs” and “Heaven's Trail (No Way Out).” He also reintroduced acoustic guitars to a new generation of hard-rock fans (although he's far too humble to take credit). He joins us to discuss the 1987 Texxas Jam, Def Leppard's Steve Clark, Ronnie Montrose, Dicky Betts, Mick Mars and David Lee Roth's powdery pinky scoop. Created and Produced by Jared Tuten

We've already covered a couple of Journey albums.  Episode 250 profiled "Infinity," the introduction of Steve Perry to the group.  And episode 26 delved into arguably the high water mark for Journey, the album "Escape."  Here we take a look at the band as they are in their transition into one of the world's biggest rock bands.The appropriately-titled album Evolution is Journey's fifth studio album.  Here we find Steve Perry settling in as front man while still sharing lead vocal duties with keybaordist Gregg Rolie.  They have also replaced drummer Aynsley Dunbar with Steve Smith, previously with Ronnie Montrose's band.  The band is continuing to explore a more radio-friendly sound.  The lineup for this band includes Perry, Rolie, and Dunbar, along with Neil Schon on guitar, and Ross Valory on bass.At the time, "Evolution" was the band's most successful album, and it reached number 20 on the Billboard 200 chart.  It also featured their first single to enter the top 20.  The album was actually released in March of 1979, but was recorded in the fall of 1978.  We're featuring it in January of 1979 because - well - that's where we were able to fit it in.Brian rejoins us in todays podcast to sub for an absent Wayne, and to profile this album. Too LateA deeper cut written by Perry and Schon, this song was written about a friend from Steve Perry's hometown who was wrestling with addiction to drugs.  It was a plea to get out of town and the surroundings that fed his addiction before it was too late to break the chains of addiction.Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'The biggest hit from the album is a slow rocker with a shuffle beat.  It hit number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 in November of 1979, the group's first foray into the top 20.  The song is based on a true story about a cheating woman who finds out that turnabout is fair play - and that cheating on a songwriter can result in your being memorialized in a song.City of the AngelsWhile they were known as a San Francisco band, this album track pays homage to Los Angeles.  It was written by Perry, Schon and Rolie.  On the album, "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" immediately leads into this track, and you will occasionally hear these played together on album-oriented stations and satellite radio.Just the Same WayThis single finds Gregg Rolie taking turns with Perry on lead vocals.  It was written by Rolie, Schon, and Ross Valory, making it the only song on the album not written or co-written by Steve Perry.  It is an infatuation song, with a great call-and-answer in the chorus between Rolie and Perry. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:The Pink Panther Theme by Henry ManciniThe Saturday morning cartoon show with a silent protagonist, "The Pink Panther," ended its run after 10 years. STAFF PICKS:Gold by John StewartLynch's staff pick is a top 5 hit from John Stewart's album "Bombs Away Dream Babies," his first solo top 40 hit.  Both Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks contributed to the album, and Nicks provides backing vocals on this song.  The vocals describe the dark, cynical side of the recording industry.Planet Claire by The B-52'sRob brings us a musical interpretation of a B-rated sci-fi movie.  Once the instrumental and sound-effects - with a Peter Gunn-inspired beat - give way to Fred Schneider's vocals, we find that the girl is from Planet Claire, drives a Plymouth Satellite, and "some say she's from Mars, or one of the seven stars that shine after 3:30 in the morning.  Well, she isn't!"Dance the Night Away by Van Halen Bruce features the first US top 20 hit by Van Halen.  This song is unusual because it is the only song on the "Van Halen II" album that originated in the studio rather than as a song the group had honed on tour for a long time.  It also downplays Eddie Van Halen's guitar virtuosity and brings up the vocal harmonies.  Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way" was an inspiration for this single.Rock n Roll Fantasy by Bad CompanyBrian's staff pick was written by Bad Co. front man Paul Rogers, and reflects the truth that Rock music is escapism, a fantasy to take you away from the stress of the everyday world for a bit.  It was the lead single from the album "Desolation Angels."  While not their highest charting single, it is their best selling single. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Main Theme from the motion picture "Alien"The disturbing soundtrack was one element of what made this sci-fi horror film so creepy.

Rodney O'Quinn, Foghat's bassist since 2015 sits down to discuss their newest album SONIC MOJO, as well as reminiscing about tour life, the time he stepped away from music, and more.Biography (from Foghat website)At 5 years old, grabbing mom's vacuum cleaner like a mic stand singing “Hound Dog” by Elvis, Rodney O'Quinn was smitten and bitten by the music bug at an early age. By the time he was 11, a request from a friend simply saying “We need a Bass Player. You should get one!” would lead him to the first of many stages he would perform on.Straight out of High School, Rodney attained his higher education in Rock & Roll playing full time from 1984-1996 with various notable Bands out of the South East U.S. This included a 5-year stint with one of the South East's top touring/grossing bands, ELI which generated 2 well received albums. Averaging 240 shows a year left Rodney feeling burned out and ready for a change. He was leaving life on the road behind (or so he thought).In 2007 (Rodney describes it as an “itch that needed to be scratched”) music beckoned once again and he was compelled to answer. Rodney joined Pat Travers Band for what he thought would be a year or two on the road. Over the next eight and half years with the Pat Travers Band, Rodney played over 500 shows across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Europe and Sweden and recorded 2 studio CD's and 2 Live CD/DVD's with the band. They also performed Live on the syndicated show RockLine Radio 3 times as well as a concert, “Live from Moondance Jam” which aired over 100 times on Direct TV.More than just a beast on the bass and a pretty face, Rodney used his business savvy background to handle many facets of the PTB organization. In 2010, he co-produced a run of shows that featured Pat Travers, Derek St Holmes, Mark Farner and Ronnie Montrose called Guitar Gods of the 70's. Along with other members of Pat's band, Rodney would play bass behind all of these Artists.During these extensive tours, as fate would have it, Rodney crossed paths many times with his friend and fellow bass player, Craig MacGregor of Foghat. After watching Rodney play, Craig Macgregor admired Rodney's talent and when the time was right, was called upon in 2015 to fill in for “Mac” and has since become a permanent part of the Foghat Family. Two years, 2 Foghat CD releases and 140+ shows (and counting) Rodney is honored to be able to add his touch to this piece of Foghat history.  Support the showLove the show? *Click here to leave a review!*Blog https://tstakaishi.wixsite.com/musicInsta @creative_peacemeal_podcastFB @creativepeacemealpodBonfire https://www.bonfire.com/store/creative-peacemeal/Redbubble CPPodcast.redbubble.comCreative Peacemeal READING list here Donate to AhHa!Broadway here!

Which rock guitarist was the bridge between the first ‘Montrose album in 1973 with Ronnie Montrose and Eddie Van Halen and the Van Halen debut in 1978 ? In this exciting Podcast I am joined again by Musicologist and Rock Writer Martin Popoff where we look at the influence of the first Montrose album and and the four years in between before the first Van Halen album arrived and changed everything in 1978. Being based in the UK I have focused on guitarists from the USA as I was already a huge Ritchie Blackmore for example and Montrose was the first real Heavy Metal album from the USA. I put forward the idea that Rick Derringer was one of the most important guitarists during this period outside of the UK rock scene. But was he the bridge between the two? Will Martin agree? What other guitarists and albums will get a mention? Watch the podcast to find out! Phil Aston | Now Spinning Magazine

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Scott conoce a los miembros de AC/DC ya que conducía la furgoneta en la que iba el grupo. Según palabras textuales de Malcolm Young "conducía como un loco y a toda velocidad". AC/DC lo habían formado los hermanos Angus y Malcolm Young. Scott quedó impresionado por el impulso y la energía de la banda, y los hermanos Young a su vez se sorprendieron con el experimentado cantante. De esta manera, AC/DC despide en 1974 a Dave Evans, su cantante original, que es reemplazado por Scott. En enero de 1975, grabaron su primer álbum (aunque sólo para Australia), llamado High Voltage. Tomó diez días, y está basado en canciones instrumentales escritas por los hermanos Young, con letras escritas por Scott. Al cabo de unos pocos meses, la formación se estabilizó: Scott, los hermanos Young, el bajista Mark Evans y el batería Phil Rudd. Más tarde, ese mismo año, editaron el sencillo It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll), que se convirtió en su himno. Este tema se incluye en su segundo álbum, T.N.T., que se publicó solo en Australia y Nueva Zelanda. En el álbum aparece otra clásica canción, High Voltage. En 1975, firmaron un contrato internacional con «Atlantic Records» y comenzaron una gira europea mundial, con la que ganaron una valiosa experiencia, tocando junto a grandes del hard rock, como Kiss, Aerosmith, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult y Cheap Trick entre otros. El grupo realizó otros dos discos en Australia: High voltage (1975) y Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976). El material de ambos álbumes sirvió para elaborar el High Voltage para Estados Unidos. En otoño de 1977, publicaron Let There Be Rock. Al año siguiente, se incorporó Cliff Williams, quien es uno de los mejores bajistas, en el disco Powerage. Todos esos álbumes fueron producidos por Vanda y George Young. El ambiente de sus conciertos se refleja en If you want blood, you've got it. AC/DC se fue de gira con artistas como Alice Cooper, Rush, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Boston, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, Heart, Scorpions, Molly Hatchet, Ronnie Montrose, Nazareth, UFO, Journey, Foreigner, Van Halen, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult, Alvin Lee, Rainbow, Savoy Brown, REO Speedwagon, The Doobie Brothers, Thin Lizzy y The Who. Al mando de AC/DC, Scott ha sido uno de los más carismáticos líderes musicales de Australia. Su actitud descarada y bravucona en escena y su peculiar timbre de voz se combinaron para hacer que su imagen sea una de la más recordadas de la historia del rock. Sin embargo, Scott también era conocido por sus problemas con el alcohol, problemas que finalmente serían la causa de su muerte cuando el grupo se encontraba en momento de gran popularidad. Lo que realmente les abrió las puertas al éxito, fue Highway to Hell (1979), producido por Mutt Lange, para muchos su mejor álbum y que alcanzó el puesto número 17 en las listas estadounidenses y el número 8º, en las británicas; fue el primero de sus trabajos en conseguir un millón de copias vendidas y figura en la lista de los 500 álbumes indispensables, elaborada por la revista Rolling Stone. El tema principal del LP, la canción Highway to hell, acabaría convirtiéndose para muchos en todo un himno del rock and roll, de finales de los 70.En la madrugada del martes 19 de febrero de 1980, Bon se dirigió al Music Machine de Camden (actualmente conocido como el Camden Palace) y se retiró del lugar alrededor de las tres de la madrugada junto a su amigo Alistair Kinnear, quien se ofreció para llevarlo hasta su piso en Victoria. Durante el viaje, Kinnear percibió que Bon se había dormido, algo bastante normal para cualquier persona tras una noche de copas. Pero Kinear no pudo ni siquiera sacarlo del coche una vez que llegaron a su destino, y optó por llevárselo a su propia casa, tras no conseguir despertar a Scott y dejarlo en el auto. Quince horas después, al volver al coche y encontrarse con Bon totalmente inconsciente, aterrorizado, lo llevó hasta el Kings College Hospital. Pero la pesadilla se había tornado realidad y Bon ya estaba muerto. Tenía 33 años. La causa certificada de su muerte fue intoxicación etílica y muerte accidental, broncoaspiración; es decir, se ahogó con su propio vómito,. Esto fue desmentido por el mismo Kinear años después en una revista de rock, la cual figura su nombre en la biografía de AC/DC escrita por Susan Massino. Su último álbum de estudio con AC/DC fue Highway to Hell y su última grabación fue la canción Ride On en directo junto a la banda francesa Trust.

Episode 89 The Theremin Part 2: Recordings After 1970 Playlist Ultimate Spinach, “(Ballad of The) Hip Death Goddess” from Ultimate Spinach (1968 MGM Records). This American psychedelic rock band was from Boston, Massachusetts, although they had a sound that had more an affinity with the free spirit of San Francisco. The Theremin has a prominent part in this song, following the vocalist and filling in some interesting instrumental parts. Bass and Feedback, Richard Nese; Vocals, Drums, Tabla, Bass Drum, Bells, Chimes, Keith Lahteinen; Vocals, Electric Guitar, Guitar, Kazoo, Barbara Hudson; Vocals, Electric Piano, Electric Harpsichord, Organ, Harpsichord, Twelve-String Guitar, Sitar, Harmonica, Wood Flute, Theremin, Celesta, Ian Bruce-Douglas; Vocals, Lead Guitar, Guitar Feedback, Sitar Drone, Electric Sitar, Geoffrey Winthrop. 8:11 Hawkwind, “Paranoia Part 2” from Hawkwind (1970 Liberty). Hawkwind was a pioneering space-rock and psychedelic group from the UK. They were known to use a theremin during their early years—1969 to 1973 and revived its use on stage in later performances using a Moog Etherwave model in the 2000s. This first album features a theremin added to much of the sonic textures, sometimes overtly but often run through effects to provide a looming background, as in this song. It is sometimes difficult to distinguish, but I think there is a theremin providing some of the droning background and then sporadic bursts of tones beginning around 4:25. 14:54 McKendree Spring, “God Bless the Conspiracy” from 3 (1972 Decca). Electric Violin, Viola, Theremin, Michael Dreyfuss; Electronics (Ring Modulator), Tom Oberheim; Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Dulcimer, Fran McKendree; Electric Bass, Larry Tucker; Electric Guitar, Martin Slutsky. This progressive band with experimental leanings was a quartet without a drummer. Dreyfus later said, “In God Bless the Conspiracy and No Regrets I was able to play viola and Theremin at the same time by bringing my body closer to the Theremin (to change pitch) while playing a harmony part on the viola,”(2006). He played a Theremin beginning 1969. He may have used a Moog theremin, such as the Troubadour. 6:53 Linda Cohen, “Horizon Jane” from Lake Of Light (1973 Poppy). Folky album from Philadelphia featuring several electronic musicians. Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Piano, Polytonic Modulator, Jefferson Cain; Classical Guitar, Composer, Linda Cohen; Flute, Stan Slotter; Producer, Electric Guitar, Matrix Electronic Drums, Modulator, Sitar, Synthesizer, Craig Anderton; Minimoog, Theremin, Charles Cohen. 3:36 Ronnie Montrose, “Space Station #5” from Montrose (1973 Warner Brothers). Ronnie Montrose added a custom-built Theremin to his equipment with the pitch antenna mounted on his aluminum (silver) Velano guitar so that he could play both at the same time. Volume for the theremin was controlled by a black box mounted on a mike stand, to which he stood nearby. He was recording with it throughout the 1970s. Here is a great live clip you where you can see how he played it. Note the end of the clip where he put the theremin guitar up against the speaker and wails on the volume control of the theremin control box. Bass, Bill Church; Drums, Denny Carmassi; Guitar, Theremin-Guitar, Ronnie Montrose; Vocals, Sam Hagar. 5:36 Arthur Brown's Kingdom Come, “Time Captives” from Journey (1974 Passport). Fender Bass, Percussion, Vocals, Phil Shutt; Bentley Rhythm Ace, Vocals, Arthur Brown; Electric Guitar, Vocals, Andy Dalby; Mellotron, ARP 2600, EMS VCS 3, Piano, Theremin, Percussion, Vocals, Victor Peraino. 8:37 Michael Quatro, “Get Away” from In Collaboration with The Gods (1975 United Artists Records). Brother of Detroit rockers Suzi and Patti Quatro, he had a flare for progressive rock and electronic keyboards in the 1970s. The Theremin makes frequent appearances on this album, this track in particular. Arranger, Piano Baldwin, Electric Piano Gretsch Electro, Piano Tack Piano, Sonic Six Synthesizer, Effects Univox Phaser, Univox Stringman, EC-80 Echo, Elka Electric Piano, Hammond Organ, Minimoog Synthesizer, Univox Mini-Korg, Electroharmonix Boxes, Mellotron Violin, Cello, Flute, Effects Wah-Wah Pedals, Effects Syntha-Pedal, Bass Nova Bass, Horns, Organ Pipe Organ, Sounds Ring Modulation, Maestro Theremin, Electronic Effects, Percussion , Michael Quatro;Bass, Lead Vocals, Arranged By Arranging Assistance, Dave Kiswiney; Drums, Kirk (Arthur) Trachsel; Guitar, Teddy Hale. 4:04 Melodic Energy Commission, “Revise The Scene” from Stranger In Mystery (1979 Energy Discs). This is the first album from this Canadian space-rock, psychedelic and folk troupe from British Columbia. The Theremin was a key instrument in their ensemble and was custom-built by group member George McDonald. His Theremin would eventually be known as the Galactic Stream Theremin and would take some 25 years to build and evolve into a six antennae instrument for “tuning into the performers body motions.” During this recording, a simpler, more traditional version was used. Gas & Steam Bass, Bells, Tambourine, Mark Franklin; Dulcimer, Bowed Dulcimer, Khaen, Gongs, Flute, Randy Raine-Reusch; Hydro-electric Guitar, Custom-made Theremin, Aura, Wall Of Oscillation, George McDonald; Percussion, Tablas, Brass Tank, Glockenspiel, Roland SH5 Synthesizer, Organ, Paul Franklin; EMS Synthi AKS, Delatronics, Electric Guitar, Del Dettmar; Wordy Voice, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Roland SH 1000 Synthesizer, Gongs, Vibraphone, Kalimba, Stone Drum, Egyptian Shepherd's Pipe, Xaliman. 6:13 The Nihilist Spasm Band, “Elsinore” from Vol. 2 (1979 Music gallery Editions).

TVox Tour model theremin, Lydia Kavina. Arranged, mixed, performed by Lydia Kavina. 8:11 Lydia Kavina, “Free Music #1,” composed by Percy Grainger from Music from The Ether, Original Works For Theremin (1999 Mode). TVox Tour model theremin, Lydia Kavina; mixed and spatialized, Steve Puntolillo. This work was originally written for theremin although Grainger had many ideas around how this type of “free music” should be played. This native Australian was fascinated by the sounds of the real world and invented a mechanical machine for making such sounds. In 1938, Grainger said, "...Out in nature we hear all kinds of lovely and touching 'free' (non-harmonic) combinations of tones, yet we are unable to take up these beauties and expressiveness into the art of music because of our archaic notions of harmony.” His adaptation of free music for theremin was an attempt to create sounds that were new to music. This version was multitracked by Kavina and an old acquaintance of mine, sound engineer Steve Puntolillo, to recreate the parts for four theremins. 1:19 The Kurstins, “Sunshine” from Gymnopedie (2000 Rouge Records). Composed by Roy Ayers; Minimoog, ARP String Ensemble, Organ, Guitar, Sampler, Drums, Rhodes Electric Piano, Greg Kurstin; Moog Theremin, Theremin Vocoder, Moogerfoogers, Pamelia Kurstin. 3:47 The Kurstins, “Outside” from Gymnopedie (2000 Rouge Records).

Los Angeles-based Pietra Wexstun is a composer, singer, keyboard and theremin player. Vocals, Farfisa organ, piano, theremin, sound effects, Pietra Wexstun; bass, Bill Blatt; guitar, Stan Ridgway; drums, Elmo Smith. 3:52 Pamelia Kurstin, “Barrow In Furness” from Thinking Out Loud (2007 Tzadik). From Kurstin first solo record. Composed, Produced, Theremin With L6 Looping Pedals and Microsynth Pedal, Guitar, Piano, Pamelia Kurstin. She played the Etherwave Pro Theremin by Moog fo this recording. Pamelia Kurstin, video with she and Bob Moogdiscussing the Etherwave Pro when it was introduced. Kurstin uses the Etherwave Pro Theremin by Moog Music. 5:12 Barbara Bucholtz, “SixEight” from Moonstruck (2008 Intuition Records). Bucholtz was a German theremin player and composer. She played a TVox Tour model theremin. Drums, Sebastian Merk; Music By, Contrabass Flute, Sampler, programmed, engineered, produced, and recorded by Tilmann Dehnhard; Trumpet, Arve Henriksen. 4:01 Herb Deutsch, “Longing” from Theremin One Hundred Years (2020 Electronic Sound). Composer, Herb Deutsch; Piano, Nancy Deutsch; Moog Melodia Theremin, Daryl Kubian. Recording from 2012. The beloved Herb Deutsch, who died recently at age 90, was an early collaborator with Bob Moog on the creation of the synthesizer. Herb became acquainted with Bob by purchasing a Theremin kit—a Moog Melodia model, in the early 1960s. He was primarily responsible for convincing Moog to add a keyboard to his modular unit. Also, this is taken from a terrific compilation of modern Theremin artists to benefit the New York Theremin Society. Check it out. 3:38 M83, “Sitting” from M83 (2016 Lowlands Festival). This is a live recording from Holland. “Sitting” was a song on M83's first album in 2001. But it didn't have a theremin part until they decided to spice-up the live interpretation of the song in 2016. Jordan Lawlor uses a Moog Theremini when M83 performs this in concert. He puts down his guitar, grabs some drum sticks, beats a rhythm on some electronic drums while dancing in place and moving his hands around a theremin. You can hear the theremin in this track but don't mistake it for the keyboard tones that Gonzalez is playing on his modular system. A longer sequence of theremin begins at 1:38 in the audio. You can view the video here, beginning at 26:54 into the show. M83 is a French electronica band founded in 1999 by Anthony Gonzalez, who remains the only sole member from the original outfit.

RECAST:  ( Episode #45) Elton John — “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”September, 1973Elton John's seventh studio release is considered his best by many. The double album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road contains many well known hits including the title track, the Marilyn Monroe-inspired “Candle in the Wind,” and the 11-minute epic “Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding.” Elton John initially intended to record this album in Jamaica, but political instability and the upcoming Frazier/Foreman boxing match caused the production to be moved to Chateau d'Herouville in France.Friend of the Show John Lynch returns to help us showcase this monster rock album from 1973.All the Girls Love AliceThis deeper cut in a minor key deals with prostitution and lesbianism. Tempo changes between the verses and chorus with a groovy fuzzy guitar distortion give this track its distinctive sound. Liberty music was originally trying to get John and writer/partner Bernie Taupin to write songs for other artists, but they decided to write it for themselves.Saturday Night's Alright for FightingThis well-known track was inspired by Taupin's experience in local pubs as a lad — it was banned on a number of radio stations because of fears that it would inspire violence. At age 15, Elton John was actually playing in pubs.Goodbye Yellow Brick RoadThe title track hearkens to a simpler childhood time, removed from celebrity and high society. Reginald Kenneth Dwight would change his name to Elton John inspired by two blues players he liked.Grey SealAnother deeper track from the album is driven by piano riffs and interesting key and tempo changes. If you don't understand the lyrics to this song, you're in good company - Elton John doesn't understand the lyrics either!ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Super Friends Theme SongThis staple of Saturday morning cartoons featured DC superheroes...“Meanwhile, back in the Halls of Justice...”STAFF PICKS:Looking Glass - “Jimmy Love Mary-Anne”  Wayne brings us the yacht rock this week. If you think this sounds like "Brandy," there's a reason for it. This is their follow-up top-40 hit. Story songs like this were popular in the early '70's.The Edgar Winter Group - “Free Ride” Bruce's staff pick brings the boogie from the debut album from The Edgar Winter Group. Ronnie Montrose and Rick Derringer were also on this album.Jim Croce - “Bad Bad Leroy Brown”Special Guest Host stepping in for Brian, John Lynch introduces another storytelling song with amazing lyrics like, "badder than old King Kong, and meaner than a junkyard dog." Unfortunately, Croce would die in a plane crash in this month.Chicago - “Just You 'n' Me”Rob takes the tempo down with a horn-driven hit. This was the second single released from "Chicago VI." The song was inspired by an argument that trombone player James Pankow had with his girlfriend - shortly thereafter his wife.LAUGH TRACK:Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt Kickers - “Monster Mash”Ahead of Halloween 1973, this song was moving up the charts. Originally released in 1962, the song was re-released in 1973.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 AC/DC es una banda de Hard Rock británica-australiana, formada en 1973 en Australia por los hermanos escoceses Malcolm y Angus Young. Sus álbumes se han vendido en un total estimado de 200 millones de copias,​​ embarcándose en giras multitudinarias por todo el mundo, y sus éxitos han musicalizado varias producciones cinematográficas sobresalientes.​​​​ Son famosas sus actuaciones en vivo, resultando vibrantes y exultantes espectáculos de primer orden.​ Mucho de ello se debe al extravagante estilo de su guitarrista principal y símbolo visual, Angus Young; quien asume el rol de guitarrista principal durante los conciertos, gracias a sus dinámicos y adrenalínicos despliegues escénicos uniformado de colegial callejero.​ Al comienzo, los conciertos y tiempos por los cuales sufrieron diversos cambios en su alineación.​​ En 1974, la llegada del cantante Bon Scott se convertiría en pieza clave del éxito del grupo. Su presencia en escena, lo convirtió en uno de los personajes más carismáticos de la historia del hard rock .​​​ La formación se estabilizaría con Cliff Williams (bajo) y Phil Rudd. En 1974 incursionaron por primera vez fuera de los conciertos en bandas de punk rock locales que ofrecían un contrapunto sonoro a las ampulosidades y la fastuosidad de las bandas que triunfaron en el mercado de la época.​​​ Ese mismo año se trasladaron Glasgow de donde procedían Desembarcaron en pleno auge del punk rock, lo que contribuyó a que en poco tiempo obtuvieron una enorme aceptación del público, ocupando inmediatamente los primeros puestos en ventas. La carrera triunfal del grupo, sustentada por la rudeza carismática, y la potencia rítmica del dominio guitarrero proseguirá con el multimillonario Highway to Hell, uno de los discos más emblemáticos de la historia del hard rock y del que se vendieron millones de copias,​​ que los catapultó hacia la fama en los y solidificó el estatus de superestrellas.​​ Cuando se encontraban en su mejor momento, tanto a nivel comercial como artístico, la desgracia se cruzó en sus caminos, cuando en el 19 de febrero de 1980, el vocalista Bon Scott falleció por intoxicación etílica.​​ No obstante, y pese a que se encontraban al borde de la separación, el grupo depositó su destino en la voz de Brian Johnson, ex-vocalista del grupo Geordie. Back in Black (1980), el disco homenaje al fallecimiento del mítico cantante original, y el cual a la postre se terminaría convirtiendo en el tercer álbum más vendido en la historia de la música, con más de 45 millones de unidades en el mundo, encajaría la figura de Johnson a la perfección en la imagen de AC/DC.​​​ El éxito de este trabajo disparó las ventas de todos los discos anteriores, desatando el fervor popular por la banda. Para mediados de 1981, todos los álbumes anteriores habían superado el millón de copias.​​ En la segunda mitad de la década de 1980, una serie de acontecimientos personales hicieron creer que el grupo ya había pasado sus mejores momentos. LP como Fly on the wall (1985), Who Made Who (1986) o Blow Up Your Video (1988) reiteraban los sonidos de pasadas entregas, hecho mal visto por un sector de la crítica.​​ A pesar de ello, sus discos se mantuvieron en las listas de éxitos hasta la siguiente década.​ The Razors Edge (1990), que contenía la enérgica «Thunderstruck», y el sencillo «Big Gun» (1993), elegida por Arnold Schwarzenegger para la banda sonora de su película El Último Gran Héroe,​ los posicionaron en las listas de los más vendidos de principios de los 90.​​​ Posteriormente, Ballbreaker (1995) y Stiff Upper Lip (2000) los mantendrían en los primeros planos de la industria musical.​​ Luego de varios años de pausa creativa, lanzaron Black Ice (2008), el penúltimo trabajo en estudio de la institución australiana, y en el cual se destaca el primer sencillo, «Rock 'n' Roll Train», lanzado a la radio un mes antes, siendo todo un éxito. Con este disco alcanzaron los 10 millones de copias en el mundo.​​​ Cuando afloraron los años de satisfacciones y reconocimientos, en septiembre de 2014, y luego de meses de hermetismo y sospechas en torno al grave estado de salud que padecía uno de los integrantes, el sitio de prensa de AC/DC confirma la retirada del guitarrista Malcolm Young debido a un cuadro de demencia.​​​ No obstante, y pese a la sensible baja de su mentor, la banda informó que continuaría haciendo música. Tanto para un nuevo disco, Rock or Bust, como para giras posteriores, la guitarra rítmica fue ocupada por el sobrino de los Young, Stevie Young.​En febrero de 2016, Brian Johnson tuvo que retirarse de la gira ante el riesgo de una pérdida auditiva completa, por lo que fue temporalmente sustituido por Axl Rose, líder y cantante de Guns N' Roses, hasta el final de la gira Rock or Bust.​​Recientemente, el bajista desde 1977 Cliff Williams ha anunciado que dejará la banda al terminar la actual gira.​ Con cuatro décadas de trayectoria, la banda ha superado los cambios en la alineación, la pérdida de históricos miembros, la controversia sobre su imagen y letras, y el constante cambio de las tendencias musicales, para convertirse en la actualidad en una de las bandas más importantes e influyentes de la historia, y con mayor capacidad de convocatoria.​​​ Hasta la fecha son una de las bandas más taquilleras de todos los tiempos.​​ Desde marzo de 2003, el grupo está incluido en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll.​​ Aunque están comúnmente clasificados como hard rock, y considerados uno de los grandes influyentes del heavy metal, siempre han clasificado su música simplemente como rock and roll.​​ Malcolm Young y Angus Young idearon el nombre para la banda después de ver escrito «AC/DC» en la parte de abajo de la máquina de coser de su hermana Margaret (AC/DC es la abreviación en inglés de corriente alterna/corriente continua, que indica que un dispositivo eléctrico puede conectarse a la red eléctrica alterna e internamente la convierte en corriente directa o continua). Los hermanos sintieron que este nombre simbolizaba el sonido enérgico y crudo de la banda, así como el poder de sus actuaciones.​ No obstante, en alguna culturas, es un término de jerga para la bisexualidad. La banda ha dicho que ellos no eran conscientes de ese uso hasta que un taxista les llamara la atención una noche después de un concierto, por lo que durante años trataron de demostrar la heterosexualidad del grupo, sobre todo en las primeras canciones. Asimismo, la denominación del grupo ha dado espacio a la controversia por parte de organizaciones religiosas, quienes acusan un significado oculto de índole satánico detrás estas siglas.​ La banda negó estas interpretaciones de su nombre, y hasta se ha burlado de ellas.​​ El nombre «AC/DC» se pronuncia por deletreo (en inglés: ei-si/di-si; en español: a-ce/de-ce), y ha inspirado a numerosas bandas-tributo.​​ En 1963 la familia Young, como muchas otras familias escocesas en aquellos años, abandonó los barrios bajos de Glasgow a causa de la gran depresión económica que afectaba a toda Gran Bretaña, para buscar una mejor vida en Australia. Encabezados por el matrimonio William y Margaret Young, acompañados de siete de sus ocho hijos (Steven, Margaret, John, William, George, Malcolm y Angus), se instalaron en Sídney. En Europa se quedó Alex, que ya por aquel entonces era músico, tocaba el saxofón y el trombón, y fue el principal artífice para que sus hermanos se inclinarán por la rama de la música. George fue el primero en experimentar profesionalmente con la música. Junto a su amigo Harry Vanda fundó los Easybeats, una de las primeras bandas australianas de éxito, número uno en 1968 en las listas de medio mundo con «Friday on my mind». El tipo de música que hacían era un pop ligero, similar a lo que The Beatles tocaban por esos años. La experiencia fue fundamental para hacer nacer la pasión por la guitarra en otros dos hermanos de George: Angus y Malcolm. Casi al mismo tiempo, su hermana Margaret usaba sus ratos libres investigando los discos americanos de Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Buddy Holly y Chuck Berry. No pasaría mucho tiempo sin que sus hermanos menores se desvivieran por Berry, especialmente forma de ejecutar la guitarra y su coqueto Duck Walk. Mientras los fundadores de los Easybeats se convertían en los reyes de la escena musical australiana gracias a su compañía, Albert Productions, los menores de los Young comenzaron a organizar sus primeros grupos con sus compañeros de clase. Malcolm empezó a tocar la guitarra, abandonando la acústica y dedicándose de lleno a la eléctrica, hecho que le permitía al pequeño Angus apoderarse de los instrumentos que su hermano dejaba de lado. Empezó en un grupo llamado Beelzebub Blues, posteriormente fue componente de otra banda llamada Velvet Underground (no confundir con la banda americana del mismo nombre comandada por Lou Reed), pero no lograron trascendencia alguna. Además colaboró en 1972 en algunos trabajos del grupo de su hermano mayor George. La misma ansiedad por tocar hizo que, con sólo 17 años de edad, Angus forme su grupo Kantuckee. Por aquellos días, una vez que volvía a casa del colegio, Angus llegaba a los ensayos de su grupo todavía enfundado en su uniforme escolar. Su hermana Margaret pronto le sugeriría que los atuendos colegiales le serían más originales a la hora de salir a tocar, a modo de atracción. Angus encontró su primer y único trabajo en su vida como impresor para una revista pornográfica. Sin embargo, en 1973, recibe la llamada de Malcolm para unirse a un nuevo proyecto. En noviembre de 1973, Malcolm Young y Angus Young formaron AC/DC, reclutando al bajista Larry Van Kriedt, al cantante Dave Evans y al baterista Colin Burgess.​ Esta formación adoptó una imagen decididamente ambigua, en sintonía con la moda del glam-rock de la época. Los primeros ensayos se basaban en clásicos de blues y rhythm and blues. En los festivales de Año Nuevo de 1973, el grupo tocó su primer concierto, en un club llamado «Chequers», en los suburbios de Sídney.​ La estabilidad grupal no se mantendría por mucho tiempo: Van Knedt y Colin Burgess fueron los primeros miembros despedidos, y varios bajistas y bateristas pasaron por la banda durante el siguiente año, incluido George Young. (Ver lista de miembros de AC/DC). Sumado a ello, las cosas con Dave Evans no marchaban bien, y mientras se buscaba otro vocalista, el representante de la banda de aquella época, Dennis Laughlin, ayudó al grupo como vocalista en contadas ocasiones. Evans no se comprometía seriamente con el proyecto, y además tenía problemas personales con Angus, lo que también contribuyó al rechazo de la banda hacia Evans.​ Así y todo, en junio de 1974, los hermanos Young, Dave Evans, y los incorporados Peter Clack (batería), y Rob Bailey (bajo), se internan en Albert Studios de George y Harry Vanda, para registrar lo que sería el primer sencillo de la banda, lanzado por toda Australia y Nueva Zelanda, denominado «Can I Sit Next to You Girl» (y la cual posteriormente se regrabó con Bon Scott). Para entonces, y luego de ensayar varios atuendos, Angus Young ya había adoptado su característico uniforme escolar, siguiendo la idea de su hermana Margaret. El uniforme original era de su escuela secundaria, Ashfield Boys High School. Acto seguido, los Young se trasladan a Melbourne y contratan como representante a Michael Browning, pieza clave en el éxito de la banda por los cinco años siguientes, sobre todo cuando este contrata a Bon Scott, que, al igual que los Young, era un escocés radicado en Australia, y que había obtenido varios títulos como percusionista en la escuela, antes de abandonarla a los 16 años de edad. Muy pronto Angus y Malcolm se deshicieron del resto del grupo e iniciaron la búsqueda de miembros para una nueva formación. En septiembre de 1974, Bon Scott reemplazó a Dave Evans. Hasta entonces, el grupo solo había grabado un sencillo. Durante estos tiempos combinaron la agresividad y la imaginería violenta, todo ello salpicado de un peculiar sentido del humor. Bon Scott ayudó en gran medida a fomentar esa imagen violenta del grupo. Tenía varios delitos menores y fue rechazado del ejército por estar inadaptado socialmente.​ En enero de 1975, grabaron su primer álbum (aunque sólo para Australia), llamado High Voltage. Tomó diez días,​ y está basado en canciones instrumentales escritas por los hermanos Young, con letras escritas por Scott. Al cabo de unos pocos meses, la formación se estabilizó: Scott, los hermanos Young, el bajista Mark Evans y el baterista Phil Rudd. Más tarde, ese mismo año, editaron el sencillo It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll), que se convirtió en su himno.​ Este tema se incluye en su segundo álbum, T.N.T., que se publicó sólo en Australia y Nueva Zelanda. En el álbum aparece otra clásica canción, High Voltage. En 1975, firmaron un contrato internacional con «Atlantic Records» y comenzaron una gira europea, con la que ganaron una valiosa experiencia, tocando junto a grandes del hard rock, como Kiss, Aerosmith, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult y Cheap Trick entre otros.​ El grupo realizó otros dos discos en Australia: High Voltage (1975) y Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976). El material de ambos álbumes sirvió para elaborar el High Voltage para Estados Unidos. En otoño de 1977, publicaron Let There Be Rock. Al año siguiente, se incorporó Cliff Williams, en el disco Powerage. Todos esos álbumes fueron producidos por Vanda y George Young. El ambiente de sus conciertos se refleja en If You Want Blood You've Got It. AC/DC se fue de gira con artistas como Alice Cooper, Rush, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Boston, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, Heart, Scorpions, Molly Hatchet, Ronnie Montrose, Nazareth, UFO, Journey, Foreigner, Van Halen, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult, Alvin Lee, Rainbow, Savoy Brown, REO Speedwagon, The Doobie Brothers, Thin Lizzy y The Who. Lo que realmente les abrió las puertas al éxito fue Highway to Hell (1979), producido por Mutt Lange, para muchos su mejor álbum y que alcanzó el puesto número 17 en las listas estadounidenses, y el número 8 en las británicas; fue el primero de sus trabajos en conseguir un millón de copias vendidas y figura en la lista de los 500 álbumes indispensables, elaborada por la revista Rolling Stone. El tema principal del LP, la canción «Highway to hell», acabaría convirtiéndose para muchos en todo un himno del rock and roll, de finales de los 70. Cuando todo parecía ir muy bien (tenían éxito de ventas en Europa y los Estados Unidos), la desgracia les cayó una noche en la que estaban parando en Londres. Ese 19 de febrero de 1980 perdieron a su vocalista. La causa de su fallecimiento fue una intoxicación etílica.​ Scott bebió de más en un club nocturno de Londres llamado «MusicMachine» (mejor conocido como «Camden Palace», y luego renombrado como «The KOKO»). Su íntimo amigo Alistair Kinnear lo llevó a descansar en su automóvil, estacionado frente al número 67 de Overhill Road in East Dulwich, en la zona sur de la ciudad. A la mañana siguiente, Kinnear llevó a Scott al hospital King's College en Camberwell, donde fue declarado muerto por intoxicación etílica. La tradición oral dice que se ahogó con su propio vómito, lo que fue desmentido por el mismo Kinear años después en una revista de rock la cual figura su nombre en la biografía de AC/DC escrita por Susan Massino.​ La familia de Bon Scott despidió sus restos en el cementerio de Fremantle, (Perth), el lugar a donde habían emigrado durante la infancia de Bon.​ Tras la muerte de Bon Scott la banda se plantea su continuidad, pero finalmente reclutan a Brian Johnson. El inglés provenía de la popular banda británica Geordie, y se dice que era el vocalista preferido de Scott. Johnson se encontraba sin grupo y meditaba si continuar en el mundo musical. Sin embargo, aceptó el reto y entró con el resto del grupo a grabar lo que sería uno de los grandes discos de los años 80: Back in Black, dedicado a Bon Scott, y bajo la producción de Robert Lange. Las cifras alcanzadas por este álbum son excepcionales: en los Estados Unidos, encabezó la lista de ventas durante cinco semanas y se mantuvo durante otras veinte en el Top 10 (estuvo en total durante 131 semanas en el Top 40). Cada uno de sus diez temas se convirtieron en un éxito en potencia, y en menos de seis meses se vendieron más de 10 millones de copias. Hasta la fecha, la RIAA le certifica 22 álbumes de platino, lo que se traduce en más de 22 millones de copias vendidas solo en los Estados Unidos. A nivel mundial, las ventas de este, se estiman superiores a los 45 millones de copias,​ figurando en la lista de los más vendidos de la historia, solo superado por el Thriller de Michael Jackson, lanzado un par de años más adelante. Asimismo por este álbum se le otorgaría un Disco de Uranio certificado de venta discográfica destinado solo a aquellos pocos artistas que vendieron más de 50 millones de copias.​ El éxito de Back in Black disparó las ventas de todos sus álbumes anteriores, desatando una «fiebre» por AC/DC. Aprovechando el impulso, el disco Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap fue reeditado en marzo de 1981 en los Estados Unidos (donde no había sido publicado en su primer lanzamiento, en 1976). Permaneció 55 semanas en la lista de los 40 más vendidos y obtuvo seis discos platinos. Asimismo, todos los anteriores discos del grupo superaron el millón de copias en julio del mismo año. En noviembre de 1981, se publicó For Those About to Rock (We Salute You), que sacaría a relucir el éxito con el mismo nombre. Al igual que los dos álbumes anteriores, fue producido por John Langue. Recibió una buena acogida entre los admiradores, pero no en la crítica. Obtuvo también buenas cifras en ventas, con un millón de copias vendidas en su primera semana y, en 2001, confirmó su cuarto álbum de platino. En mayo de 1983, el baterista Phil Rudd fue sustituido por Simon Wright. Tras ese relevo, en agosto vería la luz un nuevo LP: Flick of the Switch, el primer disco producido por Angus y Malcolm. El álbum hizo decaer el estatus comercial del grupo muy te, aunque se considera exitosa la canción, «Flick of the Switch». En octubre de 1984, editaron '74 Jailbreak un mini-LP con varias canciones inéditas y que conmemoraba sus diez años de existencia. En junio de 1985, es publicado Fly on the Wall, el álbum fue no bien recibido por los críticos y tuvo malas ventas. En mayo de 1986, publicaron Who Made Who, realizado especialmente para la película de Stephen King, Ocho días de terror («Maximum Overdrive»), y que obtuvo ventas bastante buenas. Este disco resucitó temas como «You Shook Me All Night Long» y «Ride On». En enero de 1988, volvieron con Blow Up Your Video, producido por Harry Vanda y George Young. Durante la gira de 1988, por causas personales, Malcolm Young fue sustituido por su sobrino Stevie Young (solo le sustituiría durante esa gira americana). En noviembre de 1989, Simon Wright abandonó temporalmente el grupo para incorporarse a Dio, y grabar el respectivo álbum de esa banda, Lock up the Wolves. Fue reemplazado por Chris Slade. Para ese tiempo, Johnson no estaba disponible, ya que estaba arreglando los asuntos de su divorcio. Así que, los hermanos Young escribieron todos los temas para su próximo álbum. Con The Razors Edge (1990), producido por Bruce Fairbairn, volvieron, casi diez años después de su primer gran éxito, a lo más alto de las listas de ventas (77 semanas en la lista de los 40 de Estados Unidos y 12 millones de copias vendidas hasta la actualidad), lanzados por el éxito Thunderstruck. La gira del nuevo álbum queda registrada en el álbum «Live!», la segunda placa doble en vivo de los australianos. En 1991, se presentaron en Moscú, Rusia, en lo que fue uno de los diez conciertos con más asistencia de la historia. En 1993, lanzaron el sencillo Big Gun para la banda sonora de la película El Último Gran Héroe (Last Action Hero), protagonizada por Arnold Schwarzenegger, quien también saldría en el videoclip. En el verano de 1994, vuelve Phil Rudd a la batería, tras su reencuentro con el grupo después de un concierto. Malcolm le perdonó y le pidió que volviera. En otoño de 1995, publicaron Ballbreaker, producido por Rick Rubin, el cual entró en las listas en el número 4 y vendió un millón de copias en los primeros seis meses con su sencillo Hard as a Rock. De este álbum también se extrajeron temas como «Cover You in Oil», «Hail Caesar» y «Boogie Man». Stiff Upper Lip le siguió a principios de 2001. Con ese álbum, volvieron a los sonidos que más les influenciaron durante su juventud. Sus éxitos como el sencillo «You Shook Me All Night Long», han sido interpretados por grandes personalidades del mundo de la música, como Céline Dion & Anastacia en el especial de «Divas Live Las Vegas». Curiosamente, la versión de «You Shook Me All Night Long» de Céline Dion fue elegida por la revista inglesa Total Guitar en el 2008 como la peor versión del mundo.​ En 2005, se lanzó el dualDisc de Back in Black y el DVD Family Jewels, una recopilación de sus vídeos desde 1973 hasta 1990. En 2006, se editó un libro con la historia de la banda, llamado «Let There Be Rock: The Story of AC/DC», escrito por la periodista Susan Masino. En octubre de 2007 salió a la venta el nuevo DVD, titulado «Plug Me in», en versión sencilla (dos DVD) y «de coleccionista» (tres DVD), con gran cantidad de material inédito y desconocido, incluso por los coleccionistas. En octubre de 2008 se publicó el álbum Black Ice. En 2009, la Recording Industry Association of America actualizó el récord de ventas del grupo, cambiando su cantidad de ventas de 69 millones a 71 millones, por lo que AC/DC se convirtió en la quinta banda en vender más discos en los Estados Unidos, vendiendo más discos que Madonna, Mariah Carey y Michael Jackson. El 10 de mayo de 2011, sale a la venta «AC/DC Live at River Plate», en el cual se incluyen los conciertos de Buenos Aires, Argentina, los días 2, 4 y 6 de diciembre de 2009. El 20 de noviembre de 2012, sale a la venta, el CD en vivo «AC/DC Live At River Plate». El disco es doble, con diferentes portadas, incluyendo todas las canciones tocadas en Buenos Aires, Argentina que se muestran en el DVD «Live at River Plate». También fue lanzado en una edición especial en formato LP.​ En diciembre de 2014 se publicó el álbum Rock or Bust. Es el primer álbum de la banda sin el miembro fundador y guitarrista Malcolm Young, quien dejó la banda ese mismo año por motivos de salud. El 16 de abril de 2014, en respuesta a informes anteriores de que la banda podría retirarse debido a que Malcolm Young estaba gravemente enfermo e incapaz de desempeñarse, Brian Johnson comentó que el resto del grupo iba a continuar y seguir adelante.​ AC/DC posteriormente anunció en un comunicado oficial sobre su página de Facebook que Malcolm Young estaría tomando un descanso de la banda debido a su mala salud. En junio, Johnson anunció que era «muy probable» que AC/DC regresaría nuevamente antes de acabar el 2014.​ En julio de 2014, AC/DC confirmó que han terminado de grabar su próximo álbum y que el sobrino de Malcolm, Stevie Young reemplazó a Malcolm en el estudio.​ El 23 de septiembre de 2014, bajo la dirección de Alberts confirmó que el miembro fundador Malcolm Young había salido oficialmente de la banda, debido a que se le diagnosticó demencia senil​ y su enfermedad es irreversible y reveló que su nuevo disco titulado Rock or Bust con once nuevas canciones sería lanzado el 28 de noviembre de 2014; este es el primer álbum de AC/DC sin Malcolm Young en las grabaciones. La banda también anunció planes para una gira mundial para promover el nuevo álbum con Malcolm y el sobrino de Angus, Stevie Young como reemplazo de Malcolm.​ El 9 de julio de 2015, Phil Rudd fue sentenciado con arresto domiciliario por amenazas de muerte a un exempleado y por posesión de metanfetamina y marihuana.​ En abril de 2016 el vocalista Brian Johnson deja de presentarse en vivo con AC/DC por motivos de riesgo a perder su sentido del oído. Su reemplazo temporal fue el vocalista de Guns N' Roses, Axl Rose, con quien están iniciando su gira Europea.​ El 8 de julio del mismo año, Cliff Williams, bajista de la banda desde 1977, anunciaba también que abandonaba el grupo después del final de la gira del último álbum, Rock or Bust, en septiembre de 2016.​ El 18 de noviembre del 2017 el exmiembro y fundador de AC/DC Malcolm Young fallece a los 64 años.​ Durante el mes de agosto del año 2018 fueron filtradas fotos de Angus, Brian, Stevie y Phil en Warehouse Studios de Vancouver, estudio donde fueron grabados los discos Stiff Upper Lip, Black Ice y Rock Or Bust, con lo cual, comenzaron los rumores de la grabación de un nuevo álbum y el regreso de Brian Johnson y Phil Rudd a la banda.​ El 1 de octubre de 2020 la banda confirma su regreso con la formación clásica y un nuevo disco: Power Up. El decimoséptimo trabajo de la banda australiana vio la luz el pasado 13 de noviembre de 2020. La banda ha vendido más de 200 millones de álbumes en todo el mundo, y de ellos aproximadamente 70 millones han sido vendidos en los Estados Unidos.​ Han sido sin lugar a dudas, la banda de hard rock más importante del período que va desde mediados de los años setenta hasta principios de los ochenta. Su disco Back in Black ha vendido más de 50 millones de unidades en el mundo, y más de 22 millones solo en los Estados Unidos,​​ de manera que es el quinto álbum de mayor venta de todos los tiempos en este país, y el segundo entre los álbumes más vendidos de toda la historia de la música popular a nivel mundial. La canción homónima, «Back in Black», se situó en el segundo puesto en el programa Las 100 más grandiosas canciones del Hard Rock del canal VH1. Este último los posicionó en el cuarto puesto en su lista «Los 100 mejores artistas de Hard Rock»,​ en tanto que MTV los situó en el séptimo puesto de «Las mejores bandas de Heavy Metal de todos los tiempos».​ Además la revista Q los colocó en el primer lugar en su lista «Los 50 grupos que debes ver antes de morir».​ Desde el 22 de marzo de 2000, AC/DC tiene una calle en Leganés (Madrid) llamada calle de AC/DC, a la inauguración asistieron Malcolm y Angus con gran expectación de público y seguidores.​​ El mismo día de la inauguración, la placa fue robada y repuesta a las dos horas. Tres días después, fue robada de nuevo. Fue incontable el número de veces que ha sido sustraída. Ante esa situación, el Ayuntamiento de Leganés decidió sacar las placas a la venta, para satisfacer las ansias de los admiradores. Esta anécdota fue expuesta en la película española Isi/Disi. Amor a lo bestia dirigida por Chema de la Peña y protagonizada por Santiago Segura y Florentino Fernández. Del mismo modo, en octubre de 2004, la ciudad de Melbourne también les rindió honores: la Corporación de Lane, fue renombrada ACDC Lane, en honor a la banda.​​ Sin embargo, la ciudad prohibió el uso del carácter de barra en nombres de calles, por lo que las cuatro letras se combinaron. La calle está cerca del Swanston Street, donde, en la parte trasera de un camión, la banda grabó uno de sus más grandes éxitos «It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)». Fueron incluidos en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll el 10 de marzo de 2003.​​ Durante la ceremonia el grupo tocó 'Highway to Hell' y 'You Shook Me All Night Long' (con el vocalista de la banda Aerosmith, Steven Tyler).​ Ese mismo año, Malcolm y Angus recibieron el premio Ted Albert Award por su destacado servicio a la música australiana.Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal - (Recopilation).

Hello once again everyone I'm your host Ray Shasho and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends. Brought to you by The Rock Star Chronicles Series One my new book featuring over 45 intimate conversations with the greatest music legends the world will ever know. Available now at bookbay.com and amazon.com. The James Gang is one of classic rock's earliest power trios. Though the band's line-up changed numerous times during a seven-year existence, rock historians and fans cite the lineup of Joe Walsh, Jim Fox, and Dale Peters as the James Gang's definitive line up. The James Gang became an influential source for decades after the band's demise in 1976. It's most famous member, Joe Walsh, left the band early on to join the Eagles and his replacement, Tommy Bolin, later quit to join Deep Purple, never giving the band a proper fighting chance at becoming superstars. The band hit its stride with James Gang Rides Again. The lineup of Walsh, Fox, and Peters proved to be a hit success as the album went gold, peaking at number 20 on Billboard. With the addition of keyboards, the band's hard boogie and groove found new heights on Rides Again 's collection of hard rockers and sensitive ballads. The riff-heavy track "Funk 49," a sort of follow up to Yer Album 's "Funk Number 48," hit number 40 on Billboard and today has one of the most memorable classic rock riffs. In 1971, the James Gang kept their songwriting energy vibrant with the release of Thirds. The album, once again hit Billboard at number 27 while the instantly recognizable single "Walk Away," stopped at number 51. Things were going great for the band and the future looked good until the winter of 1971 when Walsh, the true driving force of the James Gang, left the group. In the late 1990s, the James Gang reunited with Peters, Fox, and Walsh for the occasional show, including a 1996 election rally for President Bill Clinton at Cleveland State University. Please welcome the only James Gang member that has appeared on every album … drummer Jimmy Fox to Interviewing the Legends … Very Special Thanks to John Herdt for arranging this interview with Jimmy Fox.   JAMES GANG DISCOGRAPHY Yer' Album 1969 James Gang Rides Again 1970 Thirds 1971    Straight Shooter 1972 Passin' Thru 1972          Bang 1973 Miami 1974   Newborn 1975 Jesse Come Home 1976         Live album James Gang Live in Concert 1971        JAMES GANG Singles "I Don't Have the Time" 1969    "Funk #48" "Stop"1970 "Take a Look Around"         "Funk #49"   "Walk Away"1971           "Midnight Man"   "Looking for My Lady"1972        "Madness"     "Had Enough"       "Must Be Love"1973 "Got No Time for Trouble"          "Standing in the Rain"1974        "Cruisin' Down the Highway"   "Merry-Go-Round"1975 "I Need Love"1976            PURCHASE RAY'S BEST-SELLING BOOK ENTITLED THE ROCK STAR CHRONICLES SERIES ONE   CHRONICLES, TRUTHS, CONFESSIONS AND WISDOM FROM THE MUSIC LEGENDS THAT SET US FREE  …Order yours today on (Collector edition) Hardcover  or E-book  at bookbaby.com and amazon.com Featuring over 45 intimate conversations with some of the greatest rock legends the world will ever know.

MARC STORACE was already internationally successful with the Swiss cult band "TEA" in the 1970s. TEA released 5 albums and 3 singles. In 1979 Marc became the voice of KROKUS. After their first album with Marc, "Metal Rendez-Vous" (with the hit "Bedside Radio"), the rise to a successful international career was unstoppable. KROKUS played several world tours and sold over 15 million records and won many gold and platinum awards. After internal quarrels, KROKUS broke up and Marc released the album “Blue” in 1991 with the band “Blue”. The hit "You Can't Stop The Rainfall" is still played on the radio today. In the 90s and 2000s Marc starred in 2 feature films (“ANUK” and “HANDYMAN”), and again achieved gold status with various KROKUS formations and 3 albums. Marc stayed present with his fans with many guest appearances such as “Rock Meets Classic”, “Sweet 50th Anniversary”, “Ken Hensley live in Switzerland”, “Schubert In Rock”, or on the albums of Manfred Ehlert's “Amen” and the rock opera “Test”. In 2008 the music scene was surprised with the news that the original formation of KROKUS would go on tour again. The success was indescribable. Tours in the USA, Japan, Europe and South America as well as 3 new studio albums, which in turn achieved platinum status, proved that KROKUS was still flourishing after more than 2000 shows in the last 30 years. In December 2019, KROKUS played their farewell concert in the sold out Hallenstadion in Zurich. Marc started working on his solo career at the beginning of 2021. His first solo CD is released in the USA & Canada February 5th, 2022 and going on tour with his own band “STORACE” in autumn is in the works. The fans will be amazed at the enthusiasm and freshness with which “STORACE” rocks the stage. He will showcase songs from his new CD and from his long career since the 1970s. Swiss hard rockers Krokus have retired. But singer Marc Storace is obviously not ready to stop. As STORACE, the now 70-year-old has his solo debut with LIVE AND LET LIVE. He does what he does best: he rocks. Without delivering a pure imitation of his former band. A bluesy undertone has crept in again and again, as in "Time Waits For No One", he has a rich power ballad in the program with "Lady Of The Night", the piano-driven "Don't Wanna Go" lets the emotions run wild. With "Paradise" you can hear folk influences, while the Rocker otherwise presses hard on the classic rock pedal. With LIVE AND LET LIVE, Storace has succeeded in making an excellent, heterogeneous new beginning that will win over both old Krokus fans and new listeners alike. Please welcome the distinctive and powerful voice of Swiss Hard Rock legends KROKUS and new band STORACE ...

THERE IS a calm, serene spirituality about Ann Wilson in 2022 which instantly draws you to her. She feels like a warm, wise someone who has seen enough bullshit to know how to avoid it calmly, and someone who is at peace with whatever she needs to be at peace with. Perhaps that is why the soul (and, indeed title) of her latest album, Fierce Bliss, offers such universally entertaining, engaging, honest and safe harbor from these unpredictable times. It is classic rock comfort food of the finest ingredients, carrying a richness and light that allows you to escape into timeless nostalgia, 11 perfectly weighted and selected songs ranging from Wilson's own co-penned originals to breathtaking covers and collaborations. One of the premier hard rock vocalists of all-time, Ann Wilson smashed boundaries with her band Heart, the 8-times platinum, 35 million-plus selling Rock and Roll Hall of Fame trailblazers who formed in 1973. During a decades-long career, Wilson rode the roller-coaster of fame, fortune and madness, learning both joyous and hard, hard lessons along the way. In recent times, she'd managed to find a band out on the West Coast that she toured with, and as the pandemic started in March 2020, Wilson found herself with time to absorb both her life and her future.
