From Rick Nielsen stomping on the demo cassette to the label forcing them to record in separate rooms, the kindergarten phone call that ended a 37-year partnership, and the drummer who got replaced by the guitarist’s son.”, In related news, Life In Six Strings with Kylie Olsson has shared a new episode, which can be viewed below:,“On this episode of Life in Six Strings, we venture to Rockford, Illinois, a heartland city known for its industrial roots and vibrant arts scene… and most notably, the lifelong home of Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick.,Rick welcomes us into his home and down into his famous basement, packed with decades of music history, rare memorabilia, and one of the most impressive guitar collections in the world.
