R,I,P, Meatloaf

He came a LONG way from his debut collaboration Motown album in 1971.

I believe they performed on stage together in the West coast version of Hair.

Growing up, I wasn't really a fan as my musical tastes were different at the time. But, as I was driving home yesterday, they had a brief biography of Meatloaf on Sirius/XM. I heard for the first time that he was in the stage production of Hair and it all suddenly clicked for me. I can't *not* hear that influence in his recorded music now.
