Show Notes
Coming up, an interview with Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply, a band that got into music because of the Beatles. And then in the 80s, they quietly equaled them with so many hits that they had a greatest hits album 3 years into their career. When Air Supply started out they were so poor they were couch diving to find change just to eat. Just a few years later their first 7 singles hit the top 5 on the charts including today’s hit Making Love Out of Nothing at All was written and produced by Jim Steinman who had the #1 and #2 songs in the charts at the same time by two different artists! The thing is... both these songs, Making Love Out of Nothing at All and Total Eclipse of the Heart sounded pretty similar. Was it the same song with different lyrics? Find out next on Professor of Rock.
