Ep 406 - The Eagles, Diana Ross, making Pink Floyd's "The Wall" (w Bob Ezrin)

from Famous Lost Words · host Bell Media

          What do pretentious rock stars sound like? Have a listen to this episode with The Eagles! Sure, Hotel California is a classic, but Don Henley and Glenn Frey make it sound like it’s a soundtrack for how to live a purposeful life. Henley & Frey DO make some excellent points as well, but Christopher and Tom spend a lot of time having fun at their expense!           We also have an incredible early ‘70s interview with the great Diana Ross, reflecting on the early days of The Supremes. She also talks about her great affection for The Jackson Five and tries to answer the question of who really discovered them!           And in one of our favourite segments ever, Canadian legend Bob Ezrin talks about producing Pink Floyd’s “The Wall”.  Bob explains how Roger Waters was both the best and worst person to work with – and the struggles that came along with creating the biggest selling album of the ‘70s.  It’s a great insight behind the scenes of a classic!
