This is Long Way to the Top with Shayne Brian. In the words of the immortal ACDC, "it is harder than it looks". These interviews will give you a glimpse into the lives of the artists that we have sung along with, danced and rocked out to. Some go deep into their past and others celebrate their recent releases, but all of them show that regardless of who you are…it is always a long way to the Top.

This series was developed off the back of both The Bad Boys Podcasts and the wonderful chats I have had with artists on LAFM. Some are brand new and some are resurrected interviews from the archives. In some cases I will be joined by my Bad Boys co-host, Andrew Hackett and then other times it is just me, the mic and my musical hero.

Even now, after countless interviews, I still get a nervous excitement in chatting with my guests, and I hope that will never change because it is that admiration for their music that I want you to experience as you embark on your journey with them on their long way to the top.

S2E23 - Ross Wilson (Daddy Cool/Mondo Rock)

It is safe to say this episode's guest was arguably the voice of the New Romantic movement. It has been over forty years since Tony Hadley first released music with his former band, Spandau Ballet. Tony earned himself the accolade of being one of pop’s greatest vocalists. 

From the international number one True, to the unofficial London Olympics theme, Gold...and a successful solo career, Tony is now heading to Australia to perform with both friends and also a solo tour.  Enjoy this chat with Tony Hadley.

S2E22 - Tony Hadley (ex-Spandau Ballet)

The Dead Daisies are back with a new album and channelling AC/DC with their new song ‘I’m Gonna Ride’. After a bunch of fairly decent albums (let's face it you can’t go wrong with The Dead Daisies), John Corabi, has stepped back in after a hiatus, plugged in the mic, cranked it to 11 and given The Dead Daisies a new lease of life.

Check out the new album "Light 'Em Up" and tour dates here -
