Dust off your bell-bottoms and get ready for a trip down memory lane that’s more than just a nostalgia trip—it’s a masterclass in music history. This week, Nick & Sue are joined by a literal legend: Phil Wright, the original drummer and unmistakable lead vocalist of the iconic 1970,s powerhouse, Paper Lace.
Whether you’ve belted out "The Night Chicago Died" in the car or remember the global phenomenon of "Billy Don't Be a Hero," you won't want to miss the stories behind the songs that defined a decade.
Phil pulls back the curtain on the whirlwind years of the 70s, sharing insights you won't find on a Wikipedia page:
- The "Billy" Battle: The real story behind the UK vs. US charts and the friendly (or not-so-friendly?) competition over their breakout hit.
- The Voice of a Generation: Phil talks about balancing life behind the drum kit while providing the lead vocals for some of the biggest pop anthems in history.
- Life on the Road: Hilarious and heartfelt anecdotes from the height of "Paper Lace-mania."
- The Redux Twist: Nick & Sue dig into what Phil is up to now and how the music industry has shifted since the days of vinyl dominance.
