What a great interview! Love Air Supply and all their oldies….great song writing! Graham needs too be honored as a great songwriter in 2024!!!❤
I totally agreed! Amazing how many legendary songs he wrote❤
It's hard to believe air supply was a struggling band they were awsome I still love listening to them.
Graham "Musical Shaman" Russell. Met him & Russell Hitchock in 1997.
One of the greatest & most underrated composers of our time, folks.
I saw air supply live in Tulsa Oklahoma. They put on a great performance, and they are awesome! Their music takes me right back to the eighties. They still sound just as good as they ever did.
He is down to earth and honest. Have so much respect for Air Supply!!
I’ve seen this interview several times and it never gets old. Graham is such an amazing & inspirational person. 🎶🎵❤️🎹🔊🎸
Great interview & Graham is right about the music. It has certainly changed thru the decades & doesn't sound the same but how relieved it was to hear that he persisted with Air Supply. Their songs are priceless & with that Hitchcock voice, they had it made. All out of love & Lost in love are 2 great songs penned by Graham & they are the best & the rest. Not many bands can say they have been around for 46 years & are still adored by their fans, I am one of them. Finally, I have met Graham a few times thru the years & I felt like I had known him for years as he was the nicest man U could wish to meet, they both are.
Always love Graham's passion and sincerity. ❤️
Thank you. So good to hear rationality. God bless this studio. RIP dear Leon.
Glad you enjoyed it
This man is AMAZING! Been following their music since the early 80's. AWESOME!
What a glorious human and tremendous talent. Deepest of respect.
Good to finally see part 2.
Hey Jenny! We are so happy you followed up with us on part 2! We love your passion for Graham and Air Supply! We feel lucky to have a new follower in you.
I love the relaxing voices of air Supply.
Thank you Graham for all of your wonderful music🙏💚🙂
Amazing
Lord Graham Russell my IDOL
Would Love to see more of the interview if there's possibly a Part 3 or 4 !
He’s so great listening to. Sadly, we have no part 3. We hope to see Graham in future at the studio so perhaps we’ll capture more of him. 🤗❤️
Great interview Teresa Knox and Amber Acosta..
Thank You!
Lost In Love may be the song that really started everything for Air Supply, specially in USA ; it's a good song but I really think Graham has written much better songs! Graham is a very talented, extraordinaire songwriter, and it has been shown on all the various albums through their entire career. And with the inmensely great vocal talent of Russell Hitchcock, Air Supply is a wonderful band, much greater than everybody wants to recognize. 🌟💗🎶
Grahams birthday... Please....
Just curoius, how do you return home from a 5 month U.S. tour along side one of the biggests acts in the world with no money?
