Dreamboat Annie was so incredible sounding because it was all tubes, the band found an old studio in Vancouver, Canada, Can-Base Studios which had a tube mixing board, they used tubed mikes and a tubed RtR for the master. It was even cut with a tubed lathe at Kendun Recorders. You go girls!!
A tid bit about
Barracuda

Ann Wilson revealed in interviews that the song was about Heart's anger towards Mushroom Records attempted publicity stunt involving her and her sister Nancy in a made-up lesbian affair. The song particularly focuses on Ann's rage towards a man who came up to her after a concert asking how her "lover" was. She initially thought he was talking about her boyfriend, band manager Michael Fisher. After he revealed he was talking about her sister Nancy Wilson, Ann became angry and went back to her hotel room to write the original lyrics of the song.
The rumour started by Mushroom Records was because the Dreamboat Annie cover was so hot looking.
