Bryan Adams is on the short list of the most successful and popular of rock singers to issue in the '80s. The Canadian born Adams has had a string of hits in the last three decades, while 1983's Cuts Like a Knife and 1994's Reckless are albums that became part of the musical vocabulary of anyone who grew up during that decade. In 1991, Adams won a Grammy for the then ubiquitous "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You," from the soundtrack to Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Throughout his career, Adams has been a visible and wide-ranging activist for social issues including human rights, poverty and the peace process in assorted parts of the world. He has also become a well known and sought out photographer whose work has appeared in Vogue, Vanity Fair and Harper's Bazaar. In 2008, Adams released his latest studio album, 11 and received lukewarm reception from critics, despite being well received by fans. We had a chance to speak with Adams in London as he prepared for his first acoustic tour. Read the full interview after the jump.
