Desmond Child, the songwriter behind dozens of Billboard hits including Bon Jovi's "Livin On a Prayer," Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself For Loving You," Aerosmith's "Dude Looks Like a Lady" and "Crazy," Ricky Martin's "Livin la Vida Loca" (and so many more), gives Kyle Meredith a call to discuss his first live album which traces a one night celebration of some of his most memorable co-writes. Child tells the tips and tricks of how he came up with so many chart-toppers, a late-70's mentorship with Bob Crewe, and the details on his upcoming biography. He's also the producer behind an upcoming documentary based on the career of the disgraced (and deceased) boy-band mogul Lou Pearlman, who launched the careers of Backstreet Boys and N'SYNC, and Child gives the update on that project as well.
