Stories you won’t hear anywhere else! So Paul Rodgers, the iconic fire-breathing singer who is a legend’s legend… Jimmy Page has said his astounded by the power of Paul Rodgers' Voice, Brian Johnson of AC/DC said about him… He was the epitome of what every rock and roll singer should be. He had looks, the moves, and a soul voice that made everything swing. A man Eric Clapton calls the real deal, who Robert Plant calls the VOICE of all British Voices. Brian May of Queen calls him “Simply the greatest blues/rock singer alive“ Paul Stanley of Kiss said the first time I heard “All Right Now” I knew this was the voice of someone who would write his own chapter in the book of great Rock & Roll singers… and when Ann Wilson of Heart was asked who she would sing a duet with her first choice was…. Whether in Free, Bad Company, the Firm, or solo this man is the blueprint of what a rock voice should be. And guess what… He’s Not in the rock hall of fame… What the Hell? It’s a sick joke. In my opinion When it comes right down to it...He’s too good for the Hall of Fame, They don’t deserve him. Well, Paul is not only one of the greatest singer’s ever he’s also a survivor. He just powered through some trying times with his health where he had to learn to read and speak again and he’s just released a brand new album of original songs. I was fortunate to interview him. And up next he will tell us the amazing story of one of the greatest songs in rock history… A cornerstone of classic rock radio… Alright Now that he wrote with Andy Fraser when he was fronting Free. It’s a can’t miss. Also, make sure to get Pauls’ new album Midnight Rose at the link below in our description it’s amazing. and make sure to
