Stephen Bishop

Listen to "Stephen Bishop Releases We'll Talk About It Later In The Car" on Spreaker. Film fans have long treasured Bishop’s appearances in pictures such as Kentucky Fried Movie,The Blues Brothers,Twilight Zone: The Movie and, of course, his legendary cameo as the “Charming Guy with Guitar” in National Lampoon’s Animal House. In addition to the Oscar-nominated song “Separate Lives” from the movie White Nights, he’s contributed songs for other films, such as Tootsie,The China Syndrome, Roadie, Mickie & Maude and Unfaithfully Yours, among others. Stephen Bishop's timeless hits include “On and On,” “Save it for a Rainy Day ” and “It Might Be You." Over the years, his songs have been covered by the likes of Phil Collins , Barbra Streisand , Art Garfunkel , the Four Tops , Davis Crosby , Kenny Loggins – even Luciano Pavarotti . His friend Eric Clapton has been a frequent collaborator, and Slowhand has even called Bishop one of his favorite singer-songwriters. “It’s a wonderful compliment, of course,” Bishop says. “Eric and I go way back to when he played on my first album, Careless , and we wrote a song called ‘Holy Mother’ from my Blueprint album.”
