Randy Bachman, The Romantics' Mike Skill and One-Hit-Wonder Napoleon XIV aka Jerry Samuels

from '60s '70s '80s - Warm, Candid, Classic, Rock Interviews with Music Legends - A BREATH OF FRESH AIR · host Sandy Kaye

Meet 80's band, THE ROMANTICS guitarist, MIKE SKILL who wrote the classic 'What I Like About You' - a song that became one of the classic party anthems of our generation. Mike has a new solo album out this week. It's a tribute to the motor city of Detroit. What a treat to catch up with 84 year old JERRY SAMUELS aka NAPOLEON XIV. Do you remember his one-hit-wonder? You certainly won't forget it after you hear this interview.  'You're Coming To Take Me Away' takes the cake for being the biggest selling novelty hit ever! And my highly anticipated interview with Canadian superstar, RANDY BACHMAN who most of us know and love from his days with The Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive. Did you know that Randy is a firm believer in the glass being always half full?  You may have heard the story about how someone stole Randy’s prized possession – his Gretsch guitar from a hotel room back in 1976. Well the guitar has just been found and Randy is ecstatic to get it back. He tells us all about it this week on A Breath of Fresh Air. Join us?
