- Roger Fisher Founder of the legendary Rock Band (Heart) 2013 Rock N Roll Hall of Fame talks with Eric Salas from Rock Thiz Magazine about his history in Rock! Go to www.RogerFisher.com for updates. As founding guitarist of the rock group Heart, these adventurous energies made themselves globally known through the sales of more than 23 million albums. Having left that group in 1979, a musical rebirth began that took ten years to reach fruition. The first album to emerge from those years of work in his recording studio was "Standing, Looking Up," an instrumental effort that portrays earthly birth and the subsequent reaching out to other worlds and wonders.

Roger Fisher is one of the most creative guitarist in rock music. Heart was never as good after he was gone.
Agreed 💯😎 The original lineup is still the best, by far. Howard, Roger, all of them made it creative and kick ass. And what eIse can you say about the Wilson sisters ? Ann has a set of pipes you never get tired of hearing and Nancy's guitar playing is stellar. I wish they could have stayed together, imagine what they could have done together, Crazy On You, Magic Man, Barracuda, Dreamboat Annie was fantastic. They would have done more & better things.
Proud to call him a friend of mine, he's exactly as professional and gracious in person as he is here.
His guitar parts were stellar
How nice! I'm a friend from afar. maybe we'll all meet in Heaven :-) kimie
Always liked Roger Fisher!!!
One of my guitar influences
Roger was the coolest guitar player ever. So much stage presence. Such a gifted musician. He and Howard blended so well. Masters of their craft.
such a dear, dear man. so humbled listening to this "Icon" of Rock Music, his contribution, his supreme experience, his endearing spirit and soul. love this guy. what a selfless, sweet person. and the question about, 'what would he change".... (and we all know what the interviewer was leaning toward...) and you look at Roger, as he begins to answer that, thinking he's going to bring that up, and instead, you get a sweet smile, and he essentially says, "wouldn't change a thing"
I agree. The whole band is simply amazing.
If Roger would have remained in Heart another 5 to 10 years I believe he would be ranked much higher as greatest rock guitarist of all time.....he not only had amazing talent but he did it with a showmanship rarely shown. Watch some old Heart videos.... Roger was amazing.
I've often thought the same thing
Roger Fisher, such a talented musician and creative guitarist! Very nice person as well. And his Human Tribe tea is the bomb!
i love this dude.
Thanks Roger, for all the wonderful music over the years . . . and for the creation of Heart! You are a fantastic musician and guitarist! Best of luck with you new endeavors!!
It's obvious that the man was getting choked up when talking about learning through pain. My intuition tells me that he's talking about losing Nancy Wilson AND leaving Heart. That must have been extremely painful for such a sensitive spirit. His guitar musicianship has always touched me as the other greats like Beck, Page, Santana... have.
My thoughts about Nancy as well.
What a Great Guy. Good to see him vulnerable about his pain & learning lessons. It is painful to hurt the ones that we love. And, it’s even more painful to have that person who we love (who we hurt); hurt us back in the same way. It’s unfortunate that he snapped, was physically hurtful & was then voted out of the band. That must have been the most painful experience: being casted out of his own band. Yet, he said it was a relief at the same time (a relief to no longer be touring with Nancy who was sleeping with the drummer-that sounds excruciating).
He fucked up pretty big and was no saint, there was a reason why nancy was sleeping with Michael. Everyone makes mistakes, it was nice hearing him talk though
just love you so much - you are part of our growing up with a good feeling :)
Best music Heart did was the 70's, with the original band. Tour?
Thanks to my boyfriend Grant, I met Roger Fisher and as Grant says "One of the most evolved musicians there is."
Roger really gets choked up about the break up. I didn't expect him to be so emotional about it after all these years. And Nancy is still holding a big grudge or was. Forgive Roger, Nancy, he was young. Geez! Hopefully the reunion at RRHOF help mend some of those feelings. I just can't believe Nancy would still hold such hard feelings over their relationship after so much time has passed.
funnyhaha07 .. how do you know they still hold a grudge⁉️🌈
it's because the wilson sisters feel guilty about what THEY did. stealing credit for what roger brought
Lovely guy and great guitarist wish i could meet him.
Yeah I'd like to meet him too, he seems like he'd be so easy to be around.
He is a Great Guy!!
I would buy an album of Fisher doing covers.
The original Heart was the best,Roger gave them the power and grit, they have never achieved that with anyone else playing guitar, but I still love and respect Am and Nancy, Roger's a good guy !
Wow. So heartfelt
I've heard Roger's a good guy. I've met and talked to Steve Fossen and Michael Derosier. Great guys.
That's a beautiful guitar!
He is spot on. I think the servant heart is what made Elvis so great.
I LOVE YOU ROGER FISHER FOR THE INSPIRATION YOU HAVE BROUGHT NOT JUST TO ME BUT TO EVERY ETHNIC PERSON AND YOU'RE RIGHT ON KEY TO BRING THE WORLDS MUSICIANS WITH THEIR KNOWN OR HARDLY KNOWN MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AND EMROIDER THEM INTO A TAPESTRY OF ROCK AND ROLL AND HEAR WHAT THAT WILL SOUND LIKE. PERHAPS A NEW SOUND THAT WILL REACH INTERGALACTIC HEIGHTS.
Roger Fisher is very wise and likable Guy! I always liked his playing and guitar sound! He’s right about Rock music! It needs new elements or its Dead. In the past, some group would show up with a new sound or angle and it would continue in popularity! Now it’s in trouble, because it’s just repeating the same old cliches over and over. And it’s all been done. But someone or something will show up again to change the game!
Mistral Wind kicks ass!
I love Mistral Wind- great interview!
How this man has no rekindled a "friendly" relationship with Nancy, remains a mystery. I think she was the love of his life, and he hers.
Still have my Dog and Butterfly vinyl album got it when I was 14. Wanted it for D & B and Straight On. Then I heard Mistral Wind and everything changed. One side is "Dog" and is hard rock. The other side is the "Butterfly" side featuring Lighter Touch and Nada One it's soft rock - kimie
Everyone goes through pain and trials in their lives..
Roger is one of the main reasons that Heart became so successful (along with Ann’s voice, etc.). Their sound deteriorated after he left and the Wilson sisters fired the bassist & drummer. They only had a few more hits. Then their record company cancelled their recording contract. They should have not let the original members go. Biggest lesson here is not to get romantically involved with other band members.
Actually they had a lot of hits after he was kicked out He was awesome though.
@@Kacee2 they did have hits after Fisher left, shit wasn't very rocking tho.
Human relationships are complicated!
They dang sure are! lol
thanx!
Imagine the ideas Roger mentioned combined with the Wilson sisters great talents and songwriting. Heart would be cutting edge, instead of retreading the same old stuff they've been doing. If Ann and Nancy were involved with Roger's solo CD- "Evolution" it would've been maybe the best Heart CD since Dog and Butterfly or Bebe Le Strange. The stuff Rog is doing is fantastic and one listen to Evolution and you can hear what Heart misses so much these days.
I always thought Roger & Ann were a item, never knew it was Nancy, and always thought Roger was the magic man & still do.
A good way to put it!!
heart stopped being great after the dog and butterfly album....most groups wither after the first 3 albums or first 5 years....unfortunately...the founder of heart...but Ann and Nancy still reaping the rewards..
Heart is still great because Ann and Nancy are still great. Roger is great also, and probably a better musician today than he was back in his Heart days. All that great stuff he came up with at such a young age is just incredible! Each one of us is so imperfect, and as Roger has said, learning from our mistakes is part of our own spiritual journey. Hell, Ann and Nancy have had their own issues between themselves involving the tour bus (physical) incident with Ann's husband and Nancy's twin teenage boys. And Ann and Nancy love each other (sisters)! So it's hard for everyone. The sad thing is Roger is no longer in Heart. I wish he could have left Heart and continued with the same critical and popular acclaim--he certainly is deserving of it. There is lots of great music inside Roger that we are waiting for him to share with us.
anybody know what guitar he's playing? what a gorgeous work of art!
"the group that I started and named... [but unfortunately neglected to trademark or establish as a proper business entity that I was the rightful owner of]..." I wonder how much he and his brother have kicked themselves over the years for that.
wasn't the first name of their group white heart? then it became heart when Ann and Nancy joined? yeah trademark your stuff people...
no, it was called Heart ( because valentine's day is roger's birthday) they put an ad in the paper looking for a singer, ann answered the ad.
What is he talking about???? What most painful thing happened to him?? Was he crying? Wow.
yeah, but u wouldn't have gotten to see heart 3 times in row! brings to mind the song, "did u ever have to make up ur mind". i definitely feel 4 u. that would b a prized possession.
I do not know what Roger made (but African percussion is a dime a dozen) yet it still would be better than what Ann and Nancy have made since 2002.

I used to have a crush on Rodger Fisher when I was a teenager.Im a lot different in age but he sure is cute.
tune in (JAN 2014) to the MTN MONK CAFE radio show in Burlington, VT. ((i'll be chatting over the phone with ROGER FISHER)) find the website on GOOGLE: the radiator 105.9fm WOMM-LP
Thank you, another who sees the waist of these peeps not being together. Ann needs Roger, Nancy needs Deroiser, Steve needs Howie. They need each other .
wait "These Dreams" aint rock and roll ? lol
I know that Heart has been written off by some as being a Zep rip-off. Sure you can hear some Zep influence in some of the early stuff, some of it quite obvious. But if you listen to the songs collectively, you can hear that Heart really did have it's own sound. Your influences are going to come thru, no matter what, but you can still achieve your own sound if you're sny good. Heart did. Zep did. Rush did, as well. Unfortunately, those days are gone. Everything's pre-fab now, pathetic...
I feel like the Beatles get way too much credit. Kinks , Who can Cream were way more influential, as were the Stones and later Led and Hendrix
beatles are like rap way overrated and very simple sounding songs.
What was Roger doing in the 1980s? Ann and Nancy did not stop him from working after they fired him. Why does Michael Fisher hide from everyone and everything related to Heart?
he was in the band Alias
@@blakewallace4655 when did alias put out its first album?
@@blakewallace4655 I was unaware of that. I just checked out 4 videos from Alias. It's almost sort of hair metal and it doesn't appear Fisher has much creative control. 4 videos Fisher doesn't play the lead once. Pretty much seems like a waste of his talent to me.
Um... Mike? You're not ever remotely "the first people" doing what you describe. I mean, nice work if you can do it well, but please don't point yourself as a pioneer in something folks have been doing for decades.
