A friend of mone answered an ad to buy hundreds of old vinyl records and drove to OH to get them. He was taken to a basement where he saw multiple gold records on the wall. They said Meatloaf, and Bonnie Tyler. Turns out he was buying Jim Steinam’s record collection.

Total Eclipse of the Heart for Tyler. I wish I had been there to make a better offer!

I've always felt that, while Steinman can songwrite for other singers, Meat Loaf is the best artist for his music, just as I've always believed Art Garfunkel was the best for Paul Simon.

BTW, at that 1977 concert, Steinman opened the show, played the piano throughout, and voiced the male part of the dialogue that starts the song Hot Summer Night.
