Episode 51: Unveiling Lost Tracks: Producer Danny Saber on Michael Hutchence’s ‘One Way b/w Save My Life’-SLIS Podcast

Episode 51: Producer Danny Saber Talks New Michael Hutchence Release ‘One Way b/w Save My Life’

Join us for a special episode as we delve into the legacy of musical icon Michael Hutchence, whose career as the frontman for INXS skyrocketed him to fame in the 80s thanks to hit singles like What You Need, This Time, Need You Tonight, New Sensation, Never Tell Us Apart, and Disappear. Beloved for his mystique and distinctive vocals, Hutchence left a lasting impact on millions despite his untimely passing in 1997.

Now, producer Danny Saber (U2, Madonna, David Bowie) brings Hutchence’s unfinished demos to life with the release of ‘One Way’ b/w ‘Save My Life,’ a 10-inch picture disk out August 9 via Boss Sonics and Deko Entertainment. Saber meticulously reconstructed these tracks from loose demos the two recorded together just prior to his death.

In this episode, we discuss the journey of ‘One Way,’ the nearly three-decade wait for its release, Hutchence’s enduring appeal, future releases of more unearthed Hutchence material, and Saber’s favorite memories of working with the legendary singer. And stay tuned afterwards when I’ll be playing ‘One Way’.
