Summary
Steve Rosen was already an established music writer when L.A. scene queen Michele Myer introduced him to a then-relatively unknown axe whiz named Eddie. Sure, Rosen shares some insights into stories in the book Tonechaser, but don't think "it's all in" this episode. He gives Markus and Ray perspective on the moments inside his book, not just "the facts," and leaves many of the great stories from the book, on the pages. Markus and Ray recommend this book for ALL Van Halen fans, and for Rock readers in general. It's fun, but very informative. Kinda like this podcast interview! Enjoy!
