Frank opens up about his emotional instrumental solo album 'Reflections' and the personal losses that inspired it, while the pair share insights about Tesla's upcoming covers project showcasing Jeff Keith's vocal abilities. They also discuss their relationships with other musicians, including Warren DeMartini and Carlos Cavazo, and the importance of trust and consistency in a long-running band. Then, Rik Emmett joins Eddie Trunk to share insights about Triumph's potential future featuring Brent Fitz, Phil X, and Todd Kerns as core members, with original members making occasional appearances.
