[b]Who is Jim Steinman?[/b]
(Clue: He is the ‘brains’ behind Bat out of Hell, parts 1 and 2. He wrote the music and lyrics, AND produced the records. Meatloaf was his prefered interpreter)
Jim has written, produced, performed and arranged music for Meat Loaf, Boyzone, Air Supply, Tina Arena, Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion as well as many other artists.
Newcomers might know him best as the creator of Meat Loaf’s mega hit album “Bat Out Of Hell”, and Bonnie Tyler’s hit single “Total Eclipse of the Heart”.
Jim Steinman is renowned throughout the industry for the incredible depth (lol) of his lyrics and musical arrangements, and his bravely grandiose rock-opera productions. In 1981, he also recorded his own album “Bad For Good” which featured the #1 Australian phenomenon “Rock and Roll Dreams”. Jim is the co-creator of two recent smash-hit stage productions that took Europe by storm, with Andrew Lloyd Webber in “Whistle Down The Wind”, and with Roman Polanski in “Tanz Der Vampire”. His latest projects are “Batman the Musical” with Warner Bros which is rumoured to hit the stage in 2002, and the English-language production of “Tanz”.
