Song Review: Heart - “Going to California” (Howard Stern, April 10, 2024)
Ann and Nancy Wilson took the current version of Heart to “the Howard Stern Show” to do their “female Led Zeppelin” thing with “Going to California.”
The song is both “spacious” (Ann) and “Zeppelin-ey” (Nancy) but this version was, sadly neither. Nor, worst yet, was it particularly Heart-y - this, despite three acoustic guitars, mandolin and rhythm section behind Ann Wilson, who remains in relatively strong voice.
“Wow,” Stern said when it ended. How he meant it is debatable, as Sound Bites had a similar thought.
