GRAB A STACK OF ROCK With Mike and the Mad Metal Man
Episode 129: Interview with “Shandi” Bassist Harper
Last night I had the pleasure of interviewing bassist Harper on the subject of Kiss and more. Topics covered:
- Guitar tech for Paul on the Dynasty tour
- Rehearsing Shandi with Paul and Anton Fig, and recording it with Vini Poncia for the album
- Working with Peter Criss on his Out of Control solo band that never toured
- Loaning Ace the 12 string guitar he played on Fractured Too
- Missing the Space Ace
- Loaning the Shandi Thunderbird bass out to a legendary metal bassist who used it on his band’s landmark 1984 album (I love this story)!
- Working for LucasArts in the 1990s on a Star Wars video game for the N64
- Michael Bolton and his band
- An Oscar Award!?
- And so much more!
Please enjoy the show! I’ll try to get Harper back for any followup questions.
