About this episode
Suzi Quatro returns to the Chatterbox studio to talk about her new album, singles and tour and a new duet with Alice Cooper. Join Sue L, Nick and Twinkle the Tuxedo Cat as Suzi reveals all. Since first bursting onto the scene with her classic Number One hit singles ‘Can The Can’ and ‘Devil Gate Drive’, Suzi Quatro has sold over 55 million records worldwide and is recognised as a true rock ’n’ roll legend and pioneering icon who never did ‘gender’.She is also renowned for her acclaimed acting career, including theatre and T.V. series, most notably her three-season iconic role as Leather Tuscadero in Happy Days (for which she received second most fan mail after The Fonz). Her extraordinary catalogue of hits includes ‘48 Crash’, ‘Can The Can’, ‘Devil Gate Drive’, ‘Daytona Demon’, ‘The Wild One’, ‘If You Can’t Give Me Love’, ‘She’s In Love With You’, ‘Rock Hard’, and the US million-seller ‘Stumblin’ In’, her duet with Chris Norman, which became a worldwide million seller again in 2024. In 2019, she began collaborating with her son, L.R. Tuckey (producer, co-writer, guitarist) and their creative partnership now reaches its third chapter with the release of FREEDOM, their third album together. “It’s all about getting back to who you are, and it applies universally. We all wear masks to get by in this world. For me it’s all about being comfortable in your own skin, having nothing to prove to anyone, and not accepting any BS! This is the journey this album takes you on. Here I am, warts and all. Take it or leave it. Choose yourself…and finally FREEDOM. Which also applies to the world we live in today. A very important word, a very important attitude and very important reality… ‘FREEDOM’!” - Suzi Quatro
