Chris Slade has had an extraordinary career behind the drum kit.  While most US rock fans remember him as the bald madman from Thunderstruck with AC/DC, he started his career in the 60s as part of Tom Jones band, The Squires.  From there the luminaries he's played with include Olivia Newton-John, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Gary Numan, David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, Paul Rodgers, Gary Moore, AC/DC, Asia, Michael Schenker and more.He's touring this year with his band, The Chris Slade Timeline, which includes songs from all the bands he's played with over the decades.  Did you know he was asked to do a session with Dizzie Gilespie?  He recalled playing with the Count Basie Orchestra, getting phone calls from David Gilmour and Jimmy Page within 2 hours of each other and how he put his signature on Thunderstruck.A warm chat with a charming Welshman covering 7 decades of rock!A Member of the Pantheon Podcast Network - https://pantheonpodcasts.com/@ugly_werewolf@actionjax72@SladeTimeline
