'Rising' with Ian Haugland - 50 Episode Special My Classic Album with Mike Norris

    • Music History

The 50th episode of 'My Classic Album' is here and it's jam packed like no other! Ian Haugland, drummer of Swedish rock legends Europe joins Mike to discuss our 50th classic album, Rainbow's 'Rising'.
A union including the likes of Ritchie Blackmore, Ronnie James Dio and Cozy Powell was too much for a young Ian Haugland to resist. Together Ian and Mike explore the impact 'Rising' had not only on themselves but the development of hard rock and heavy metal as a whole!
What unique process did Rainbow use to audition drummers including Cozy Powell?
How did keyboardist Tony Carey react when Ian played him the intro to 'Tarot Woman' on his own radio show?
Is 'Stargazer' the genesis of metal's relationship with fantasy?
PLUS: Enjoy a track from Europe's most recent album 'Walk The Earth'
Oh but there's so much more!
Fans of TV show 'Parks and Recreation' rejoice! Mouse Rat are back! It's been running over on our Instagram page for nearly a month. After 50 episodes worth of classic albums, the winner of the 50 Album Showdown will be revealed! AND the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer joining Mike on a future episode of 'My Classic Album' will be announced at the end of the show! My small way of thanking you all for enjoying 50 episodes of 'My Classic Album'
