Musical Interlude: Radioactive (1984)

 The Firm was touted as a supergroup when their debut CD was released in 1984. Paul Rodgers (ex-Free, Bad Company) sang lead, Jimmy Page (ex-Led Zeppelin, The Yardbirds) was on lead guitar, Tony Franklin was on bass, and Chris Slade (Manfred Mann's Earth Band, among others) manned the drum kit. Slade would later play with AC/DC on their 1990-1 album, "The Razor's Edge", and Rodgers was one of the singers in Mike & The Mechanics.

Here's the 1st single, "Radioactive", which got a ton of airplay in 1984.
