If you look back at some of the some of the earlier bands like Deep Purple, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, say for instance, their keyboards were nasty. I mean, keyboards, it just depends on how they’re used, I think. The synth sounds awesome on there but since your music had pretty much always had a hard edge to it, were you hesitant at all to have synth so prominently on there?įord: Nah. I was curious about the use of synthesizer on the intro huge single “Kiss Me Deadly” from that album. You mentioned the Lita record and it’s a stone-cold classic, kind of like a perfect album. Everybody comes in and it’s just like, “Oh my god…” They’re all family, these guys, and we just had a really great time making that record. The Cheap Trick guys were there, and Dave Navarro and Billy Sheehan. And while we were recording, a whole bunch of people came in. I’d met him during the making of the Lita record and George was just so great at the studio. I went in the studio with George Tutko, who was a fantastic engineer. I thought they were great recordings and the public need to hear them. I really like the songs “Where Will I Find My Heart Tonight” and “King of the Wild Wind.” Were there a couple of those Time Capsule songs you were particularly stoked to finally get out there?įord: Yeah. Your 2016 album, Time Capsule, featured some very cool unreleased archival material.
