Radar Love
Paul Stanley, Desmond Child
There has long been discussion about just how much of a tribute to Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog" this song is. Paul has easily deflected the question, "There's some wonderful people like Willie Dixon and John Lee Hooker and a lot of people who certainly influenced the people who wrote 'Black Dog.' And I think it's a tip of the hat to anybody, I think my heroes - at least I have taste! I don't think there's anything necessarily revolutionary and new under the sun. It's reminiscent of it, sure, who's going to deny it? But then 'Whole Lotta Love,' that old song - who did it? Willie Dixon" (Creem Collector Series 2, 1).
