Info

Marvin Lee Aday aka Meat Loaf was an American rock singer and actor. Aday suffered from obesity from a young age. That's what his father called him "Meat" when he was two years old. When he stepped on his football coach's foot at the age of 13, he is said to have referred to him as "Meat Loaf". In 1967, Meat Loaf moved to Los Angeles, where he founded various rock bands, some of which played as the support act for The Who and Joe Cocker. He also worked as a parking lot attendant. After a successful audition for the musical "Hair" he got a role in the play. Meat Loaf sang effortlessly over four octaves and with the greatest confidence in his voice. He was known for his powerful and theatrical concert performances. Composer and Richard Wagner lover Jim Steinman conceived the typical theatrical bombastic Meat Loaf style as a mixture of 1950s rock 'n' roll and art rock, a variant of 1970s progressive rock. The terms “rock opera” or “Wagnerian rock” (“Wagner rock”) are often used because of the strong reference to Richard Wagner. A trademark at live concerts was the red (or at times white and black for sad songs) silk scarf that Meat Loaf used until his death.
