    Yeah, a very young Eric on drums, how cool.
    He's on of my all time fav. drummers, together with Ian Paice of Deep Purple, and Neil Peart ofron Rush ;) .
    I like his style and also his work on the new album of Kiss, and the Alice Cooper albums he played on.

    Interview with Eric Singer
    KF: You mentioned 1985 so I have to stay in that time period for this question. A person who looks like you appears in Olivia Newton-John's "Culture Shock" video. Was that you, and if so, what can you tell us about that gig?
    ES: Yeah, that's me. Actually that was filmed in 1984. It was recorded at the old Starwood Club in Hollywood. And that was done because I was playing with Lita Ford at the time.
    I'll give you a couple of fun tidbits. Olivia Newton-John was pregnant at the time so that's why you never see a lot of good body shots and her clothes are kind of looser. She was like five or six months pregnant during the taping of that. And her nephew played bass in the video, I remember he was Australian and he told me he was her nephew. And I was just hired to be in the video and the way it happened was, David Mallet -- I think he did some stuff with KISS actually...
    KF: Yes, he did "Tears Are Falling" and some stuff with Def Leppard.
    ES: Yeah, he did a lot of big video stuff back then. He had done a couple of Lita Ford videos and when he went to do the video they wanted to use a more rock-looking band for Olivia Newton-John's video. So he called up one of the guys in Lita's band and said, "Hey, I want to use the band guys for this video." Well, I had done Lita's videos. Randy Castillo was the drummer before me in Lita Ford. The other two guys, Gordon Copley and Bobby Donati, were also in Lita's band. And I think David Mallet called Gordon, the bass player, and said he wanted to use us for Olivia's video. So Gordon called me up and that's how I got hired.
    I was always spinning the sticks a lot. So I remember David Mallet saying, "Let's get some shots of the drummer because he's doing that cool stick thin

    This is when ONJ started to buy into the 80's big hair, over-done excessive look. It's a shame because she blew the doors off any woman of her time without a drop of makeup. She seriously could wear a burlap sack and still win a beauty AND talent contest. Damn.

    Soul Kiss was Olivia's best and most experimental album. I wished Olivia would have pushed more edgier albums afterwards. She only went backwards. Culture Shock has that 80's horror Halloween, Friday 13th sound to it.

      @@waiter1971 Promotion was mainly the problem. She was pregnant at the time and was unavailable to push it with appearances. I think she should have drafted Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis as originally planned( producers of Janet Jackson) after Soul Kiss album. David Foster gave her an edgier sound too. Oh well all the possibilities were out there for a comeback and Olivia went soft on us after The Rumour album

    • @MrVjtre
      @MrVjtre 2 роки тому +1

      @@markxxx21 Overall, the material on SK was not as strong as "Physical", plus, Olivia was being pushed in a direction that was not really her. So in a way, I'm glad she could not "pull it off" as you say. Olivia went on to make the music that she really wanted to do. Olivia's next album "The Rumour" was much stronger than SK and, it was obvious Olivia was finding herself again, and I love that. Her albums "Gaia" and "Grace and Gratitude" are not for the charts, they are for the soul. I've been listening to Olivia non-stop this past year. Long Live Livvy xoxo.

      ​@@Kira7London-Spencer This was before Olivia was married. Her name was Chantal Contouri. I haven't found the actual article that I read years ago, because I didn't save it. I saved the Star Magazine 12/18/1984 article about her wedding and that was the lady's name. Chantal Contouri is one of the most beautiful women in the world. Just that alone creates chatter. By the year 2000, I learned over half of the rumors that I've heard about Olivia are not true. Example: People use to say that Olivia was married to Elton John. That is why her last name is Newton-John. People use to say that MCA started the "Olivia Records" label just for her. That is not true either. Olivia should write a book about all the untrue things that have been said about her.
