Episode Notes
“The Fall Of Winter” is the new Project Grand Slam single by Robert Miller (music) and legendary rocker Jim Peterik (lyrics/vocal).
Jim Peterik has had several major hits in his career including “Vehicle” for the Ides Of March and “Eye Of The Tiger” for Survivor, which became the theme song for Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky III. He’s also written songs for Lynyrd Skynyrd, Cheap Trick, Doobie Brothers, Brian Wilson and REO Speedwagon.
Says Robert: I envisioned “The Fall Of Winter” as a kind of Blue Collar anthem about a guy who works the midnight shift at a steel mill or factory but dreams of a better life.” Adds Jim: “It’s also about being true to yourself.”
The recording features a solo by legendary guitarist Elliott Randall (Steely Dan/Doobie Brothers), best known for his amazing solo on Steely Dan’s “Reelin’ In The Years”, and keyboard work by Tony Carey (Rainbow/Mandoki Soulmates), who has played with Joe Cocker, Eric Burden, John Mayall and Ritchie Blackmore.
