Guitar legend Nancy Wilson of Heart joins host Peter Csathy for her second appearance on The Story Behind the Song , this time to explore the iconic "Barracuda" from Little Queen. Following their previous engaging conversation about "Crazy On You," Peter welcomes back Nancy to discuss the powerful guitar licks and signature riff that define this classic track. Released in 1977 on Heart's third album, "Barracuda" roared onto the scene and continues to be a fan favorite as Nancy and her sister Ann Wilson return to touring after a recent health challenge.

The conversation briefly touches on their previous discussion about the lyrical context of "Crazy On You" and then pivots to "Barracuda," another signature song featuring Nancy's distinctive guitar playing. Peter teases the song's potential contemporary relevance.
