Today's the remembrance day for Jim Steinman, he died in 2021. Unfortunately not bombastically or over the top like his songs, but of kidney failure after having been ill. Listening to his songs over the years, he had some amazing ones. I first heard Meat Loaf Bat Out Of Hell like probably most people, but he had songs before that. Lots of stuff I could have used, but chose not to. If you have to hear the other version (perhaps even the better version - ok for sure the better version) of Total Eclipse click there. And one day I will make my version of my favorite hours worth of Meat Loaf (well, I already have it made, but when will I post it?). I chose these to spread it out trying to give each artist a chance, but I still left out Brown, Lane, Hannah, Pandora's Box, Take That and even Steinman himself solo. Maybe I will post part two next year. Or maybe Meat Loaf doing the full albums he didn't do with Steinman (they sound great - the albums that could have been) For now you get this pick.
