I got to fly to Chicago to sit down with the legend himself, Jim Peterik. I met Jim over 15 years ago and we have been close friends ever since. In this episode you’re going to hear the stories behind the phone call from Sylvester Stallone that changed his life and led to him writing the song “Eye Of The Tiger” for the movie Rocky. You’ll hear about how he created the bands Ides Of March and Survivor. You’ll hear the story behind the song “Vehicle” and more. We sat down in Jim's home studio and had the best conversation. Here's Jimbo Peterik!
