ROCK N' ROLL CIRCUS #50

ROCK N' ROLL CIRCUS #50

Author: Radio Wilder September 11, 2025 Duration: 1:49:23

We’re shining the spotlight on our sound engineer extraordinaire, Howard Steele. Back in January 1977, Howard had not one, but two Top Ten hits—Leo Sayer’s “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing” at #1 and Burton Cummings’ (Guess Who) “Stand Tall” at #10.

Howard shares some fantastic stories in this episode:

✨ How a nosy neighbor’s complaint led him and Richard Perry to create the legendary Studio 55.

✨ Getting the call from Richard—“We’re recording Manhattan Transfer, with Jim Keltner and Ringo Starr on dual drums.” His reaction? “Way cool!”

✨ The unforgettable moment when Richard called him up to the front desk… and handed him his very first Gold Record.

Come listen as Howard takes us back to his incredible Top Ten days!

And a big shoutout to the Self Storage Association on its fabulous 50th Anniversary Show—a Las Vegas–style celebration done right. 👏


Tune into Radio Wilder for a raw, personal journey through sound and memory, hosted by former drummer Harry Wilder Sleighel. This isn't a curated playlist or a formal interview show; it's the sonic diary of a life lived in rhythm. Each episode blends music with intimate, off-the-cuff stories drawn directly from over sixty years of a Rock 'n' Roll ethos-a perspective he's still actively living. The podcast feels like a late-night conversation in a backstage green room, where tales of the road, the studio, and the evolution of an artist's spirit flow as freely as the tracks he plays. You'll hear the records that shaped him, the behind-the-scenes moments that defined him, and the ongoing passion that fuels him. It’s this unique fusion of personal narrative and musical selection that naturally builds what listeners call the "Wilder Nation"-a community connected by authentic stories and the timeless power of a great song. Expect a direct, unvarnished, and deeply human connection in every installment, where the line between the artist and the audience dissolves.
