Steve is a great guy! I got a chance to meet him at one of our shows. He even got up on stage and played a number with us. This was a wonderful thrill for me being such a Heart fan since the 70's. If Steve happens to read this comment, Thank you Steve for playing that night and sharing your gift with us and talent !

Fascinating stuff. Their seeming reluctance to deep-dive into the end of their involvement with the band is classy, in my view. Very tough circumstances, by many accounts.

Thanks so very much for this wonderful interview with one of the BEST rhythm sections ever. I was so very fortunate to have seen the real HEART 3 times in the 70’s . They were such a great and dynamic group. Grateful for their honesty on so many of the questions that you asked . I’m very happy that Steve and Mike continue to present and preserve the music they created and look forward to seeing Heart By Heart when they make it back to Maryland!👏🏻👏🏻

Great respect for Ann & Nancy's talents, but they really did the rest of the band dirty at the Rock Hall of Fame. This always felt like some type of diva power play by Ann & Nancy, but we will probably never know for sure. Once thing is for sure, the band was never the same after the original band members left. Kudos to Mike and Steve for a really classy interview. You can still tell they are bit peeved, which is understandable, but they were classy enough to not trash Ann & Nancy.

Great interview! Somebody still needs to write the definitive Heart book. The Ann and Nancy book was good, but just their perspectives. I mentioned it to Martin Popoff (who has written a lot of great rock books) but he said he doesn't have enough interviews to do one. Elliot, I've enjoyed your interviews with Roger Fisher. Interviewing Mike and Steve has really shined a different perspective on the band. Sometimes the guys that were out of the spotlight have more insights, or at least different ones to share.

Thanks for the kind words. Roger and Mike have been working on an autobiography. That should be a good read.

@geoffreymerrifield5666 Год назад

Agreed. Heart with Derosier, Fossen, Fisher and Leese has the power and passion of the biggest bands of all time. Heart without these guys is like Zeppeling without Plant.

Watching the performances on the RARHOF the Crazy on You performance is so air tight and absolutely brilliant and Barracuda with the new line up and friends just sounds so inferior...the tempo is all over the place..lags in spots and speeds up in others. I met Jerry Cantrell a few years back and asked him about that experience and he said "I love them all but honestly it was weird and I don't really know why I was even there when the original line up were all there and playing amazing." He was very kind about it and clearly meant nothing bad toward anyone but you could tell he knew the Original line up should have been allowed to play all of it. Its so clear watching that performance how much Mike's drums and Roger's guitar playing absolutely complete those older songs.

It seems that the girls were so concerned about seeing Roger for the first time in decades, and how he might react...that Jerry was there as a potential stand-in in case of a fight. Of course, there wasn't (Roger was very grateful to be there), so why Jerry still ended up onstage for "Crazy on you" is bizarre. I got the impression he was there as a kind of "security blanket" for the Wilsons. More here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nhkR1B1GyMc.html

Steve Fossen and Michael Derosier were the KING and Emperor of Heart, every day that goes by, I understand just how integral they were and I hear their parts differently. I keep saying, if Pink Floyd can get back together, WHY CAN’T HEART FIND THEIR WAY BACK ON STAGE???

@allenf.5907 Год назад

GREAT interview!

@leonjunior114 Год назад

Great interview, what awesome guys they are

@cb24203 Год назад

2:04 Is Fossen possibly talking about Billy Joel here? Liberty Devito had some great signature licks and was really important to the sound of Joel’s band. It’s either him or Stan Lynch he’s speaking of. GREAT interview too.

As we look back on the artistic collaborations of our lives, isn't a great deal of it the luck of the draw and what decisions we made during those creative times?

Why did these guys leave Heart?

@jonblackers4339 Год назад

Central Park 77? Link?

@pjones8404 8 месяцев назад

I have long contended that "bands" often never get the credit they deserve when their front person becomes more popular than the collective. The original band is on equal footing as Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple Mark II, Ozzy era early Sabbath. They are that important and that good. Cheap Trick's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame performance highlighted the exact same thing. Bun E. Carlos came out and they did "I Want You to Want Me" and "Dream Police" it sounded like 1979!!! The band that Ann and Nancy used for decades was simply one of the weakest bands I have ever heard. "Crazy On You"...within 20 seconds of it starting at the Rock Hall, instantly showed the music world that THIS band mattered. It was perfection!!!!! The ONLY band I would pay money for anymore would be a fully reunited Heart. But I am not holding my breath!!

@JWCFB 4 месяца назад

Howard Leasee is the best musician that ever played in Heart

@chrisdeming9287 Год назад

Let’s not forget about Denny Carmassi. He was the drummer for Heart for over 10 years.

@wolfeyes9357 Год назад

Heart has not been the same since 1979...the start is when Fisher get tge boot....landslide from there!

@johndough7160 Год назад

😂 anybody remember 10 Bulls?

@jamesweldon9726 5 месяцев назад

Yes. I actually talked to Mike for a a minute at a 10 Bulls gig in the Kirkland area (I think it was at Waldo’s?). Nice guy!

The nostalgia lies in hearing Ann and Nancy sing, not so much in a drum fill or bassline. These guys are great musicians, no doubt, but they're lucky they got to be in a band with the Wilsons. They wouldn't have made it without them. Ann and Nancy would have made it anyway. Derosier is such a fantastic drummer though and it sucks that he had to leave

@drumsforlife9474 2 года назад

The whole band, the original band is where the nostalgia lies. Not just the Wilson's. They will regret the day they never reconciled and did some kind of reunion. The 70s Heart was the best and still is the best version of Heart. Heart has gotten watered down since the last album these gentleman played on.

These kenmore boys started the band 7 uears befor ann n nancy joined on.

@frankrivers2183 Год назад

Sorry, have to disagree with you. Ann Wilson is a fantastic talent and no doubt Heart wouldn't exist without her, but that band would never have hit the heights it did without the talents of the other members, especially Roger Fisher. Once he left the group the sound changed and they lost his unique guitar artistry that gave Heart its classic sound. That's the problem, Ann & Nancy thought it was all about them and no doubt they were the heart of the group (no pun intended), but the band lost its unique sound once the original guys left. From that point forward it was Ann & Nancy and a bunch of session musicians. They may have made a ton of money during the '80's playing that corporate dreck but anyone who loves Heart loves them because of Barracuda, Magic man, Crazy On You, etc. None of those songs would be the same without Roger and the other guys.

@mrfester42 Год назад

Wow! You pretty much know diddly about the original band. Hearing Ann and Nancy sing may be YOUR nostalgia but nostalgia is , by definition, a personal and very subjective thing. The simple fact is that Ann and Nancy did NOT start the band and Nancy wasn't even in the band at the very beginning. When ANN started out she was a folk singer who had to be convinced to join a rock band. Her voice was without doubt one of the defining features that helped to make the band big but it sure as hell wasn't the only one. The cohesiveness and great musicianship along with Fishers very unique guitar sound were the other cornerstones of its great success. In other words, they were great band without Anns voice. Anns voice put them over the top but Ann needed a band as sharp as they were to shine like she did. I'm 64 years old and I saw most of the great rock acts live from the very late 1960s to the very early 80s. Of all those bands that I saw live it was Jethro Tull and Heart that were the two great standouts as far as great musicianship and tightness. Those two bands were fucking steamrollers and Heart would have knocked everyone's socks off even without the Wilsons. All of the very best of the best rock bands had the quality of playing as a single unit and Heart had it in spades so to say that they were lucky to be in a band with the Wilsons has nothing to do with their musical ability. That dopey statement was one from someone with stars in their eyes with no discerning ear for what makes a great band. This joker who gave their induction speech and talked just about Ann and Nancy did a great disservice to a phenomenal band. "Not so much in a drum fill or bassline"? Give me a break What a condescending and ignorant statement. You don't know diddly about what a great band is.
