Meat Loaf The Ethel Merman of Rock'n'Roll?
. "We got turned down by everybody, you know, four times, by every label I can think of," Meat Loaf tells In The Studio host Redbeard. "Clive Davis (president of Columbia Records at the time) said to me, 'Do you guys listen to Rock'n'Roll?', he said, 'You're like the Ethel Merman of Rock'n'Roll'." Today, "Bat Out Of Hell" has sold in excess of 40 million records worldwide, supported by such classic songs as "Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad", "You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth" and the eight-minute epic "Paradise By The Dashboard Light." more on this story hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
