Flashback Interview (1988): VIXEN Vocalist JANET GARDNER About The Band’s Newly Released Debut Album

Janet spilled the beans on how the band got its groove, their musical muses, their image, and what it was like to be an all-female hard rock act at the time. She even shared thoughts about what would be different on the next Vixen album. And as for those Spinal Tap moments on tour? Oh, you betcha!

    Stig is the founder and the president of Metal Express Radio, based out of Oslo, Norway. He has been around doing Metal radio since the mid-eighties. In fact, running Metal Express Radio takes almost all of his time. Is it worth it...? "Most times, yes," Stig says.
