I remember asking Joe Walsh about Bill when my band opened for Joe in 2013 and his exact words were "Billy Frank is the man I owe my entire career too, he came to Ohio on a covered wagon with a mono machine to find me ". LOL!!! I got to spend about and hour talking to Walsh after sound check. Bill's work with the eagles and the Joe Walsh solo records are some of the best work I have ever heard as whole collective albums. They aren't just random songs put together they work perfectly one into the next like movie plot!
Holy crap. I can’t imagine a world without strings on Thrill Is Gone and Frankenstein being called the ‘warm up song’ 🤯 between Bill and Terry Manning I think they are responsible for 99% of my all time favorite classic songs. Can’t wait for part 2!!!
Even though I will be the first to admit that I don’t always know what they are talking about in terms of technical aspects and gear, it is incredibly refreshing to hear two men have a conversation and virtually finish each other’s sentences because they know exactly what they are talking about. Fantastic interview! I would love to hear more about the recording of The Long Run and some of Bill‘s hidden gems dubbed “Random Victims” with the Eagles & J Geils. Bill did a fantastic job of miking all of the drums and getting the sound of space in the recording.
Edgar Winter's Frankenstein still sounds heavy as fuck 50 years later thanks to this man
