Here's an interesting tidbit
The 1980s saw Derringer make several notable contributions to rock and pop hits, including Air Supply's "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" and Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart." (He cited the former as one of his favorite guitar solos he ever recorded.) He wrote and recorded for Meat Loaf, Cyndi Lauper, and Barbra Streisand during this time, as well as producing the 1985 World Wrestling Federation release, The Wrestling Album.
