INTHESTUDIO celebrates the 25th Anniversary of the Bryan Adams’ RECKLESS album
Listen to a cut of the interview (20 minutes and 52 seconds)
American syndicated radio show INTHESTUDIO celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Bryan Adams’ RECKLESS album with a one hour rockumentary.
Twenty-five years ago this week Bryan Adams’ fourth album, Reckless, had been out exactly two months & had only just begun spinning off what eventually be a total of six Top 15 hits , including the #1 ” Heaven.” At the time only Michael Jackson’s Thriller was its equal for sheer mass appeal prolifics. In mid-August 1985, a month after I had witnessed him & his band from sidestage at Philadelphia’s massive RFK stadium performing to more than a billion people as part of the televised Live Aid charity concert, Reckless was the #1-selling album in America.
Some years later, seated at Bryan’s kitchen table late on a Saturday night at his home in Vancouver, we talked about that remarkable year. In his basement studio overlooking the glassy water of the bay, he played early demo versions of “Run to You” with backing vocals which undermined the taut urgency the song eventually demanded. Finally, at about 3 a.m. on a clear starry September night, Bryan set up a telescope on a tripod in the middle of his suburban Vancouver neighborhood street & showed me the rings around Saturn, seemingly as eager to share this natural wonder as he was displaying the vintage recording consoles in his basement. It was a stunning cap to a memorable day.
