Show Notes
🤘🎧 THIS IS IT! THE INTERVIEW! 🎸🎵
According to Gen X Joe, this rock "journeyman" shouldn't need an introduction for Season 2, Episode 18. Having fronted a string of successful bands over the past 35 plus years, John Corabi ranks as one of Gen X Joe's TOP 3 FRONTMEN OF ALL TIME. So, when the opportunity to interview the former Mötley Crüe frontman (1992–1996), also known for his work with The Scream, The Dead Daisies, and Union, finally arrived, Gen X Joe's nerves were shot. But, Corabi was so laid-back and open that the nervousness quickly faded.
"Interviewing or meeting your idols is the most amazing things, especially when you connect on a platform you both have a love for — music," says Gen X Joe.
Beyond fronting those bands, Corabi has also lent his gritty vocals and guitar work to acts including ESP, Brides of Destruction, and RATT.
Corabi's current full-length solo album, New Day, was released on April 24 of this year via Frontiers Music srl.
Thank you to Jody Best for helping with the arrangements for setting up the interview.
