The 50th anniversary of the Eagles' "On The Border" album is being celebrated by the syndicated radio show In The Studio With Redbeard: The Stories Behind History's Greatest Rock Bands.
Redbeard shared this synopsis for the episode: It's odd, but until this golden anniversary of The Eagles' third album, On the Border, released in March 1974, I had not really noticed how little each Eagles album sounded like its predecessor. For a possible explanation as to how that might be the case, we tapped the In the Studio interview archive for the insights of two original Eagles bandmates, co-founding singer/songwriter/guitarist Glenn Frey and original bass player/singer/songwriter Randy Meisner, both now gone. Like the first two Eagles efforts, On the Border was begun in London England and supervised by veteran English producer Glynnis Johns. But those sessions only yielded two usable recordings. Glenn Frey was so at odds with producer Johns that one of the two salvaged songs, "Best of My Love", was sequenced dead last, buried on side two. Neverthelss, through a quirk of fate, Frey reveals how "Best of My Love" became The Eagles' first #1 hit, eventually propelling the On the Border album to over two million sales. (read more)

White metal band Whitecross recently released their new single "Man In The Mirror" music and lyrics by Rex Carroll and Antonio N. Acevedo, and to celebrate we asked Rex to tell us about the track. Here is the story:
The proverbial question: which comes first, the lyrics or the music? (The answer, of course, is YES.) I've found the best thing when writing lyrics is to tell true stories because that's how you connect with people. I was blown away when my good friend Antonio showed me about four pages of lyrics he had written telling about his decade-long journey to sobriety. I'm so proud of his life, and I could tell he took a big risk by allowing the world to see that part of his experience. (continue)
