Up NEXT the story of one of the most mysterious, otherworldly songs of the 80s. It’s a song that absolutely hypnotizes you as a listener Eyes Without a Face by Billy Idol. Written by Billy Idol and Guitar Hero Steve Stevens for the 1984 New Wave classic album Rebel Yell. With an exotic chorus that’s sung in french. The song STARted out as a ballad but then Steve Stevens who’d written the music walked into the studio and let out a face melting blazing guitar solo that was so potent when he walked into the control room everyone in their was jumping up and down cheering including the singer. the story of this 80s classic is told by this legendary guitarist and co creator next on Professor of Rock.

On this installment of Revelations, I’m elated to share a part of a very recent zoom interview that I did with one the greatest guitarists of the rock era, the ultra-supersonic virtuoso Steve Stevens who was the foil to Billy Idol throughout his peak Cowriting with Billy on some of his greatest compositions including the story of today’s hit: a song that has a chorus sung in English and French. The satisfyingly peculiar, Eyes Without A Face from 1984’s classic album Rebel Yell. You gotta hear Steve’s story of his approach to the song and the story of his amazing solo very cool stuff. Steve Stevens wrote the music and Billy Idol wrote the lyrics and the story of how it came together is very insightful. This one’s a classic
as we go into this interview, with Steve Stevens.
