Some time ago I found some information online suggesting that you had been working together with drummer Joe Franco (Good Rats, Twisted Sister, Widowmaker, studio musician). I had never heard of this before so I contacted Joe about it. Joe confirmed that he had been playing on one song with you but he didn't remember much about it. He didn't remember the song title and he didn'tknow if the song ever had been officially released. What he did remember was that this was probably in the early nineties and he also said that the record label involved was Arista. Could you sort this out for me and all our other fans.

Is it common that Eric is answering in topics in this part of the forum? Perhaps this topic should be moved to the "The Inside Story" section.

Thanks for your answer and the link. Here is a link to where I originally found the information http://www.scribd.com/doc/67287335/Modern-Drummer-145 . It is some pages down in the news section and plus that Joe confirmed it himself. The list you provided only seem to list official releases, perhaps the collaboration between Eric and Joe never made it onto an official release.

About a week ago I found some information online suggesting that Eric Carmen had been working together with drummer Joe Franco (Good Rats, Twisted Sister, Widowmaker, studio musician). I had never heard of this before so I contacted Joe about it. Joe confirmed that he had been playing on one song with Eric but he didnt' remember much about it. He didn't remember the song title and he didn'tknow if the song ever had been officially released. What he did remember was that this was probably in the early nineties and he also said that the record label involved was Arista. Does anyone here know anything about this. Since I am a big Joe Franco fan I would like to get hold of this recording if it ever got officially released.
