Podcast appearances and mentions of Bob Rock

On the 77th Episode of the Album Review Crew of Shout It Out Loudcast, Tom, Zeus & special guest, guitarist and founder of the band Restayned, Tony Musallam, review the 1989 hair metal classic by Motley Crue "Dr. Feelgood." By the end of the 1980's Motley Crue was near the mountain top of hair metal bands. Dr. Feelgood cemented their reign with Nikki Sixx's lyrics, Mick Mars' guitar riffs, good looking platinum blond Vince Neil as the frontman and the heavy drums of the crazy Tommy Lee. The album contained 5 hit singles and videos that were on MTV non-stop, include the title track, Kickstart My Heart, Without You, Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.) and Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away). Dr. Feelgood was their 5th studio album was produced by the great Bob Rock. It made it to #1 on the US Billboard charts and eventually went 6 times platinum. The album signaled the end of a decade, hair metal and Motley Crue for a time. This was the Zeus' pick. So be wary of the terror in Tinseltown or it would leave you out of breath like someone we know!

This week on The Tragically Hip On Shuffle, we cracked open 'Coffee Girl' - the fourth track and second single off "We Are the Same" (2009), produced by Bob Rock. On the TTHTop40 Countdown, it clocks in at number 53. It's been played live 78 times, last appearing on the final tour on July 30, 2016.Joining me for this one were two members of west coast tribute act Gift Shop - Craig from Langley and Ian from Maple Ridge - plus returning guest Tim from Columbus, host of the Dig Me Out Podcast. Two-fifths of Gift Shop, for the record. You can't reduce that fraction without going to decimal points, and you just can't do that.What we got into:The pre-release Bathhouse recording - recorded April 6, 2009, the day before the album dropped - was our jumping-off point, and it unlocked a lot. Organ instead of trumpet. A looser, jammier feel. Multiple gaffes and weirdness. And somehow, the bones of the song were all already there.From there the conversation ranged wide. Tim came in with a clear-eyed critique - the drum loop feels mechanical, the melody doesn't shift from verse to chorus, and he wishes Robbie Robertson had gone slide guitar instead of brass. It's a good song for most bands, he said. For The Hip, it's below average. Gauntlet dropped.Craig pushed back from a different angle - the musicality. He broke down why 'Coffee Girl' is so easy to listen to: it's in C major, four chords (F, C, Am, G), and it never deviates once. The chorus just drops the C. The fade-out isn't laziness - it's because there's no satisfying harmonic resolution to this story, and Craig walked through why Gift Shop ends it on a G (a half cadence) while The Hip's Abbotsford version lands on an A minor (a deceptive cadence). Genuinely great music nerd territory.Ian brought the emotional case for the album as a whole - the deliberate smoothness of the production, the loss of grit that divided fans, and why he thinks people owe "We Are the Same" a deeper listen than most gave it. He also flagged Derry Byrne - the trumpet player on the track - as a Kitsilano local who plays with the Jill Townsend Jazz Orchestra. And he introduced a darker reading of the lyrics: is the coffee girl cautious for a reason? Is there something more unsettling running beneath the surface of an otherwise easy, sunny song?That lyric conversation went deep. We talked about Gord's love of people-watching - including jD's two separate sightings of Gord at a Timothy's on the Danforth with his MacBook, pecking away at the window. We talked about Craig's memory of seeing the album's theatre release the night before it came out, seven months after his first kid was born, and how that version of 'Coffee Girl' was the first time he ever heard the song. And we talked about whether the mixtape-with-classic-Beck line ages anyone else as hard as it aged us.The poll results this week showed about 25% of Hip fans in the Facebook group feeling negative or indifferent about 'Coffee Girl.' Not surprising - but Ian made the case for patience, and he made it well.Next week: 'Wheat Kings.' Top 10 on the countdown. If there was ever a song that screams Canadiana - and there never is a time to wave a flag at a Hip show, but if there were - it's that one.Guests this week:Gift Shop - West coast Tragically Hip tribute act featuring Craig and Ian. Catch them live on August 20, 2026 at the Hollywood Theatre in Kitsilano, BC - the ten-year anniversary of the final show. Deep cuts guaranteed. At least one song off "We Are the Same."

Tuesday, May 19, 2026Today's show starts with Brock accidentally becoming “Bob Rock” after a Starbucks order goes horribly wrong in New York. The new alter ego may or may not become a future rock station personality.

Esta semana dedicamos la tertulia a Metallica.La semana pasada, la banda californiana anunció una reedición especial de su séptimo álbum 'Reload', para el próximo 26 de junio, tal como habían hecho el año pasado con 'Load'.Creados prácticamente en las mismas sesiones de grabación junto al productor Bob Rock, con quien ya habían trabajado en el multiplatino 'Black Album', y publicados originalmente en junio de 1996 y noviembre de 1997, 'Load' y 'Reload' fueron dos discos de lo más controvertidos entre el fandom de Metallica. En este episodio nos adentramos en esa etapa polémica y nos preguntamos: ¿Merecen 'Load' y 'Reload' ser reevaluados?Para debatirlo nos acompañan Javi Félez,  guitarrista de Todo Mal y productor en Moontower Studios, y David Sabaté, colaborador de Mondo Sonoro y de RockZone.Y como siempre también hacemos un repaso a algunas efemérides, noticias destacadas de la semana, la agenda de conciertos, los charts, la sección Parecidos Razonables y al final, las recomendaciones de Oído, Visto, Leído.¡Ojo! El próximo jueves 14 de mayo a las 19 h. grabaremos el podcast con público en La Cinc de Apolo (Barcelona). Si quieres asistir manda un mail con tu telf. de contacto a podcastrockzone@hotmail.com.

This week, we are welcoming home the astronauts by playing songs written by the star man himself: David Bowie! What better way to celebrate our mission to the moon than by hearing other bands cover his varied tunes. The Thin White Duke was a rock n' roll chameleon who influenced music, film, and fashion for over 50 years. Considered one of the most influential artists of all time, he was the most underground mainstream artist, creating the blueprint for many to follow. Hope we freak you out and that ya dig! What is it we do here at InObscuria? Every show, Kevin opens the crypt to exhume and dissect from his personal collection: an artist, album, or collection of tunes from the broad spectrum of rock, punk, and metal. Robert is forced to test his endurance and provide feedback, as he has no idea what he will be subjected to every week. Our hope is that we turn you on to something that was lost on your ears, or something you've simply forgotten about, or that (in our opinion) should have been the next big thing. Songs this week include: The Get Up Kids – “Sufragette City (David Bowie)” from Eudora (2001) Infectious Grooves – “Fame (David Bowie)” from Sarsippius' Ark (1993)  Small Town Titans – “Heroes (David Bowie)” from Heroes - Single (2026) Bauhaus – “Ziggy Stardust (David Bowie)” from Ziggy Stardust - Single (1982) Contraband – “Hang On To Yourself (David Bowie)” from Contraband (1991) DREAMCAR – “Moonage Daydream (David Bowie)” from Dream - EP (2024) Enuff Z'Nuff – “The Jene Genie (David Bowie)” from 10 (2000) Classless Act – “Starman (David Bowie)” from Classless Act Does Bowie - Single (2023) Saigon Kick – “Space Oddity (David Bowie)” from Water (1993) Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!

Getting Hip to the Hip - "We Are the Same"Pete and Tim hear "We Are the Same" for the first time. Bob Rock, big strings, and a campfire album that divides fans right down the middle.EPISODE SUMMARYReleased in 2009 and produced by Bob Rock, "We Are the Same" was the first record in over 20 years that made Tragically Hip fans wait longer than two years for new material. It debuted at number one. And it is, to put it diplomatically, a record that asks something of you.Pete Marchica and Tim Lyden sit down with jD for their first full listen, and neither of them is ready for what they get. The conversation covers every track - from the country-laced AM radio chorus of 'Morning Moon' to the sprawling, emotionally devastating nine-plus minutes of 'Depression Suite,' which Pete calls fucking magnificent. There are Pink Floyd comparisons, David Gilmour guitar tributes, a detour into the agricultural meaning of 'Queen of the Furrows,' and a story about how Gord heard a CBC news correspondent's name as "Honey Watson" mid-song and just... went with it.The residential school system, the weight of Gord's legacy as a voice for people who needed one, and the question of where that voice has gone in music today - those threads run through the episode too. Pete says it plainly. Tim agrees. jD doesn't argue.Bob Rock takes some heat. The drum mixing takes some heat. The strings - which show up on approximately every song - take some heat. And yet, somehow, this episode ends with three grown men picking their MVPs and meaning every word.'Depression Suite' is jD's. 'Frozen in My Tracks' is Tim's. Pete's? Listen and find out. Some things you've got to earn.ABOUT THE HOSTSjD is the founder and host of The Tragically Hip Podcast Series, a seven-show podcast network built out of love for a band and a community. He has raised over $35,000 for causes including the Downie Wenjack Fund, the Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research, and CAMH.Pete Marchica is coming to you from Spain. He showed up this week with notes, opinions, and a strip club analogy that somehow makes complete sense in context.Tim Lyden listened to this album later than he would like to admit, did a deep dive on Honey Watson's true identity the day before recording, and watched a crow destroy something in his backyard mid-episode.RESOURCES & REFERENCESTragically Hip discography and setlist data: HipbaseLive performance history: setlist.fmBand biography: This Is Our Life by Michael BarclayThe Tragically Hip Archive - source for live recordingsIN THIS EPISODEOpening: jD on "We Are the Same" and the three-year waitThe Italian fan translating Hip lyrics into his own melodic structureTrack-by-track: 'Morning Moon,' 'Honey Please,' 'Wheat Kings,' 'Coffee Girl,' 'Exact Feeling,' 'Queen of the Furrows,' 'Speed River,' 'Depression Suite,' 'Love Is a First,' 'Country Day'The Bob Rock debate: production genius or too much Kool-Aid?Gord Downie, residential schools, and the question of who speaks for the people nowMVPs, playlist picks, and a poodle skirt fundraising pledgeCALLS TO ACTIONListen to Getting Hip to the Hip and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.Join the community: community.tthpods.comCONNECT

Fully & Completely: redux - We Are the SameThe Hip's most divisive record. The one that feels beige on first listen and breaks your heart on the fifth. jD and Greg LeGros go track by track through "We Are the Same" - and they don't hold back.jD and Greg LeGros return for the 17th anniversary episode of the "We Are the Same" deep dive. The album nobody fully agreed on when it dropped in 2009, and the one that keeps climbing anyway. The production is neutered, Bob Rock wanted to sell records out of Starbucks, and yet - 'Depression Suite' is sitting right there in the middle of it, ten minutes long, and it is a monster.They go track by track. 'Morning Moon.' 'Honey Please.' 'The Last Recluse.' 'Coffee Girl' (controversial, stay with them). 'Now the Struggle Has a Name' - which turns out to be about something much bigger than the melody suggests. And 'The Depression Suite,' which gets called hookless by critics in 2009 and is, in fact, enormously hooky.Greg lands on 'The Last Recluse' as his takeaway song. jD goes with 'Depression Suite' but admits he's going to listen to 'The Struggle Has a Name' twice on the drive home with a different set of ears. There's a Sobeys story. There's a Gandharvas rabbit hole. There's a Honey Watson correction that opens the whole album up.This is Fully & Completely: Redux. It's the same DNA as the original run. Not a sequel - a reunion. Start at the start.What We Get Into'Morning Moon' - The most complete recording on the album. Neil Young-adjacent, not in a bad way. Should have been the first single. Greg connects it to listening out a charter bus window watching Ontario roll by, and it clicks. The plume of smoke across the lake from Bath studio. Labour Day. Makes sense.'Honey Please' - The Springsteen opening that the production keeps from becoming what it should be. Mission statement buried in the first verse: I don't want to look for words, I don't want to work that hard. jD reads it as Gord's note to himself - and maybe Bob Rock's - for this entire record.'The Last Recluse' - Tragically Hip at their most Radiohead-adjacent, which is not a sentence you write about many Hip songs. A Springsteen-y tragic love story. The Radiohead gang vocal at the end earns its place. Who is the last recluse? Greg has a read. It lands.'Coffee Girl' - The most contentious track. Greg calls it the basement for this band. jD goes to bat for it from the barista's point of view - working the early shift, knowing her name, getting off the bus stop north just to walk past. He doesn't fully win the argument. But he makes a run at it.'Now the Struggle Has a Name' - This is where the episode opens up. Residential schools. Reconciliation. The first time Gord openly dedicates a full song to something this specific and this political. The applause can begin for the apology. That is a stinging line. And Honey Watson, it turns out, is Connie Watson - he misheard the name on the news, wrote it down, realized the mistake, and kept it anyway. Of course he did.'The Depression Suite' - Nearly ten minutes. Three movements. Called hookless by people who weren't listening. Are you going through something? Because I am too is one of the great hooks in this catalogue - F sharp minor, Greg can't stretch his hand to play it, it still lands. 2009 was early to be this direct about mental health. The Hip were early, as usual.'The Exact Feeling,' 'Queen of the Furrows,' 'Speed River,' 'Frozen in My Tracks,' 'Love Is a First,' 'Country Day'- The back half of the record gets a harder look. Some of it holds up better than they expected. Some of it still suffers from production that cuts the band off at the knees right when they should be rocking. 'Skeleton Park' - the bonus track, Apple Music Extra only, not on every format - is brought up as the song that should have been the closer. Never heard it? Go find it.The VerdictGreg's takeaway song: 'The Last Recluse' jD's takeaway song: 'The Depression Suite' The song to play someone to introduce them to this album: 'Morning Moon' - impossible not to like Does anything crack jD's personal top 25 Hip songs? No. He says so plainly. Is it still a good album? Yeah. It is. Greg likes 65% of it. He says so plainly too.Coming UpNext time out - a Hipstories episode with a very interesting guest. A Gord solo episode follows that.

Fully & Completely: Redux - World ContainerBob Rock, a divisive record, and the Tragically Hip song that might just be their best. jD and Greg came around. Hard.October 17th, 2006. The Tragically Hip released "World Container" - their first of two records with producer Bob Rock, and one of the most divisive albums in the band's catalog. Twenty years later, jD and Greg LeGros are back for Season 2 of Fully & Completely: Redux, and the verdict is in: this record is better than you remember.In this episode, jD and Greg dig into the landscape of 2006 - the Wild West of music piracy, the indie pop boom, Arctic Monkeys blowing up on MySpace, and a straight-ahead Canadian rock band trying to stay relevant without chasing a trend. Then they get into the album itself, track by track: the stadium-sized riff of 'You're Not the Ocean', the disco-beat weirdness of 'The Lonely End of the Rink', the complicated love letter that is 'In View', the cool-as-hell swagger of 'Fly', and the title track 'World Container' - which gets called one of the best Tragically Hip songs of all time. No argument here.Greg also quit coffee. It almost killed him. We talk about that too.This is Fully & Completely: Redux. Season 2. We're back."I missed the boat completely. Because this song is just perfect."Greg LeGros from Toronto - co-host of Fully & Completely and the person most likely to make you reconsider a record you wrote off. Musician, music obsessive, and the only person jD trusts to go track by track through a Tragically Hip album for hours without losing the thread.

Honey, Please — Deep Cut or Hidden Gem?Sometimes the Shuffle Gods reach deep into the catalogue.And sometimes what they pull out sparks a conversation you didn't see coming.This week on The Tragically Hip On Shuffle, we landed on “Honey, Please”, the second track from We Are the Same — The Tragically Hip's 2009 album produced by Bob Rock. Clocking in at four minutes even, it's one of those songs that quietly sits in the album's early stretch and doesn't always get the spotlight when people talk about the band's catalogue. But that's exactly the point of this show.Because when you put a few fans in a room and really dig into a track — the lyrics, the production choices, the album context, the cultural references — sometimes a song that felt like a bridge suddenly starts revealing its layers.And “Honey, Please” might just be one of those songs.On paper, the track finished #162 in the fan-voted Road to the Top 40, placing it surprisingly close to the bottom of the list of Tragically Hip songs ranked by listeners. Yet when fans were polled again ahead of the episode, many described it as an “underrated gem.” So what gives?That's the question we explore in this episode.Along the way we talk about:where the song fits within the We Are the Same album flowwhether “Honey, Please” functions as a bridge track between songsthe role of keys and arrangement compared to other Hip songslyrical interpretations and what Gord Downie might be reaching forpossible cultural references in the title and phrasingand how deep-cut Hip songs often reveal more when fans start connecting the dots togetherAt one point the conversation turns to the phrase itself — “Honey, Please” — and how it echoes similar titles across music history, from soul influences like Barry White to indie and punk songs with the same name. Because with Gord Downie's writing, nothing ever lives in a vacuum.And that's where the fun begins.As we talk through the track, one idea keeps coming up: even songs that seem modest on first listen can open up when fans start doing the homework — digging into the lyrics, the context, and the emotional throughline of the album.Sometimes what sounds simple is anything but.Or as we discover here, a deep cut can still be a gem once you look under the hood. Pull Quote“Even a song that feels like a deep cut can turn out to be a gem once you start digging into it.”In This EpisodeA closer look at “Honey, Please” from We Are the Same (2009)How the track fits within the album's narrative flowLyrics, references, and fan interpretationsProduction touches from Bob RockWhy some Tragically Hip songs reveal themselves slowly over timeAbout The Tragically Hip On ShuffleHosted by jD, The Tragically Hip On Shuffle randomly selects a song from the band's catalogue and explores it in conversation with fellow fans.No scripts.No predetermined rankings.Just a deep dive into whatever the Shuffle Gods decide we're listening to that night.The result is part conversation, part discovery — and a reminder that the music of The Tragically Hip always has more to uncover.Get InvolvedWant to join a future episode?Follow along in the community and keep an eye out for opportunities to participate in upcoming recordings of:The Tragically Hip On ShuffleThe Tragically Hip Top Forty CountdownDiscovering DownieFollow + ListenIf you enjoy this episode, make sure you're subscribed to the show and share it with a fellow Hip fan.And if you'd like occasional updates about episodes, events, and opportunities to join the conversation, you can sign up for Yer Letters here:https://mailchi.mp/8fca809e6a92/join-the-communitySEO KeywordsThe Tragically Hip podcast, Honey Please Tragically Hip, We Are the Same album analysis, Gord Downie lyrics meaning, Tragically Hip deep cuts, Canadian rock podcast, Tragically Hip song discussion, Bob Rock production Tragically Hip, Hip fandom podcast, Tragically Hip fan community.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tthtop40/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Once you reach a certain level, there is no ‘better'…it's different.”   Released on August 19, 1983, FLICK OF THE SWITCH (the 9th studio album by AC/DC and the 3rd featuring Brian Johnson on the mic) is what some fans might call their “White Album” (arriving after their “Black Album” and “Bronze Album”, respectively), showing a black and white grayscale drawing of a lone Angus pulling down some massive power, so to speak.   “That's literally ‘Bad To The Bone' and ‘In My Time Of Dying'…”   While self-produced by the band and containing a much rawer production and drier mix than the ultra-produced Mutt Lange masterpieces which came before it, FLICK OF THE SWITCH is a back-to-basics approach showing the band embracing more of their earlier blues based sound while still remaining faithful to the signature, high-energy, up-tempo jams which have become their calling card. It's loud, straight ahead, and powerful, and while perhaps not as uber popular as the 3 albums that preceded it, FLICK is still very much an important album in the AC/DC catalog and one that would serve as a “connector” between where they had been and where they were headed.   “We could have a rated R show…it doesn't have to be X…”   We're finally back on track after getting derailed by the weather. Always remember to “wait ‘til it has some viscosity to it…” and then JOIN US for a “night time” dive into the album that would serve as the bridge into the next era of AC/DC with “The White Album” known as FLICK OF THE SWITCH.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast More ACDC Episodes: https://www.metalnerdery.com/acdc   Show Notes: (00:01): #selfconsciousness / “Hold on…you don't know what you're asking for…”/ #darkcomedy / “It's kinda like…being in a cover band and having you guys show up when we play #POISON…”/ #carriesunderwear / “I need a rage truck…”/ “I like doing it…it's fun…”/ “A little bit…only if you push back…”/ ***WARNING: #listenerdiscretionisadvised ***/  “Synching up…locking in…”/ ***WELCOME BACK TO THE METAL NERDERY PODCAST (NIGHT TIME EDITION) ***/ #coveryourmouth / “I'm building up my immunity system…”/ “It could have been me…”/ #AIDSFlu / “It takes a flu nap is what you're saying…”/ #homemadelube / “Wait til it has some viscosity to it…” (05:55): EMAIL US at metalnerdery@gmail.com & PATREON US at patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast / #HailToTheBenton / “Dude, the Hog Story is worth the price of admission…”/ “Oh yeah…when we get done…I need to show you guys something…”/ “It's like zazz and zhuzh…”/ #NWOOSTM / “Here's what I hate about Marshalls…”/ #Traitor REACTOR IV (Venomizer – 2016) / #1986 / #incomplete /  “You know what dude, that's the best #BackstreetBoys song…”/ #Enmy – LEDGE / #melody / “It's the hard stop…and then super soft…”/ #markthetime / “I wasn't expecting to like that…”/ “No Slayer of the Episode?”/ #anush #penish / #SlayerOfTheEpisode / #Slayer HALLOWED POINT (Seasons In The Abyss – 1990) / “And just like that…all is right in the world…”/ “It's all 7's…” (22:47): #TheDocket METAL NERDERY PODCAST PRESENTS:  AC/DC – FLICK OF THE SWITCH / #ACDC #TheWhiteAlbum / “I don't remember being 10 and listening to AC/DC…” “It's black and white in grayscale…”/ Released August 19, 1983 / “Doing AC/DC always takes me back to childhood…”/ “In the For…Flick…Fly category, Flick is in the middle there…” / “It's 3-D and you can feel the texture…”/ Recorded in Nassau, The Bahamas with Robert John “Mutt” Lange / “He's the Bob Rock of the 80's…”/ “Their sound is menopause…”/ RISING POWER / “I feel like it was a little slow to start…”/ “#Pyromania btw was January 20 (1983)…”/ “I don't know what that is: a desert vagina kinda…”/ THIS HOUSE IS ON FIRE / “They should have swapped those two…”/ “Mega ultra mother fucking super stardom…” (33:23): FLICK OF THE SWITCH / “I think every band has a ‘connector' album…”/ “That's a good episode…3 albums in a row…”/ “Use penal clean…”/ NERVOUS SHAKEDOWN “Two words…slower and sleazier…”/ “You know what the leading cause of death is for nymphomaniacs is?”/ “We could have a Rated R show…it doesn't have to be X…”/ #killercloser / LANDSLIDE / “What a great closer for Side 1…”/ “That riff…reminded me of this…”/ PLAYING WITH GIRLS (Fly On The Wall – 1985) / “I try to hold this thing together…” (38:38): GUNS FOR HIRE / “Turn this up to loud…” / “Once you reach a certain level, there is no ‘better'…it's just different.”/ DEEP IN THE HOLE / “I'm over A.I…”/  “I cup the balls, I go all the way…”   (45:34): BEDLAM IN BELGIUM / “Side 2 better than Side 1…” / “It's really close to ‘Fly On The Wall'…” / BADLANDS / “That's literally ‘Bad To The Bone' and ‘In My Time Of Dying'…”/ “I feel like he does that in the studio…”/ SG vs Les Paul / #markthetime / BRAINSHAKE / #killercloser / “That sounds like an AC/DC closer…”/ “It's only 8 minutes longer than Reign In Blood…”/ “It sounds like a good bridge to ‘Fly On The Wall'…”/ “It's the bridge between the old and the next…”/ Bands with great 3-album runs / THANK YOU FOR JOINING US!!!/ #untilthenext #outroreel

Slippery When Wet es el tercer álbum de estudio del grupo musical estadounidense de rock Bon Jovi, lanzado el 18 de agosto de 1986 por el sello discográfico Mercury Records. La mayoría de las canciones están escritas por Jon Bon Jovi y Richie Sambora, si bien el compositor Desmond Child colaboró en tres de ellas. La grabación se llevó a cabo en los estudios Little Mountain de Vancouver (Canadá), bajo la producción de Bruce Fairbairn y la mezcla de Bob Rock. Se convirtió en el primer trabajo de Bon Jovi en alcanzar el número uno de la lista Billboard 200, posición que ocupó durante ocho semanas, y se consagró como el más vendido de 1987 en los Estados Unidos. 

This week Clint explores the Monsters of Rock segment of A Week and a Half in the Life of Metallica from DVD disc 1 of the Load Boxset. He also reads emails and discusses the annoyance of phones at concerts, the editing process of St. Anger, why the next Metallica record should be made with Bob Rock, the NBA expanding to Seattle, a follow up Rick Rubin album to Death Magnetic in 2011 and why Load and Reload are not THAT different from one another.

On the Saturday August 23 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we meet New York Times bestselling author Joy Fielding. With a career spanning over four decades, she has eraned readers with her ability to weave intricate plots, complex characters, and emotional depth. Known for bestsellers like “See Jane Run,” “Don't Cry Now,” and “Someone Is Watching,” Fielding explores themes of relationships, betrayal, and human resilience. Today we’ll talk about her latest novel, the psychological thriller “Jenny Cooper Has a Secret.” The book follows a 76-year-old widow named Linda who visits Legacy Place, a memory care facility where she meets 92-year-old Jenny Cooper, a dementia patient who shocks Linda with a confession: “I kill people.” Initially dismissing it as delusion, Linda grows intrigued as Jenny lucidly recounts tales of her victims—mostly men who wronged her. When a resident dies under seemingly natural circumstances, Linda begins to question whether Jenny’s claims might hold truth. Then, we’ll hang out with singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith. Often called a “songwriter’s songwriter,” his fans include Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, Leonard Cohen and many, many others. He’s release 17 albums to date, and collaborated with producers like Daniel Lanois, Mitchell Froom and Bob Rock. His songwriting appears on albums from Rod Stewart, Michael Bublé, k.d. lang, Emmylou Harris and Feist. Today we talk about his latest album, “Hangover Terrace,” The album was sparked during Ron’s extended stay in the UK in late 2024, following his Sexsmith at Sixty tour. Inspired by time spent recording at London’s Eastcote Studios, Ron says the album was inspired by “the hangover I feel from the last few years of pandemic and life knocking us around.”

Listen up Redheads! The mighty Mike Fraser Returns! This man needs no introduction, or re-introduction that is, since Mike joined the Bo-Hosts back in Season 2 Episode 7. Mike is referred to as one of "The Big Three” (alongside fellow Canadian sonic wizards Bruce "Balance" Fairbairn and Bob Rock), Mike's fingerprints are all over the greatest rock, hard rock, and metal albums of all time. If you've ever headbanged, fist-pumped, or air-guitared in your life—you've probably got Mike to thank.  In this episode, The Bo-Hosts dive deep into the making of Chickenfoot's wildly and weirdly named second album, “Chickenfoot III” (because naming things in order is for amateurs). Mike dishes on the vibe, the process, and the magic behind the mix. PLUS: the Bo-Hosts relay a question from Canadian rock royalty Kim Mitchell about AC/DC's recording setup. It's a fully Canadian and Tariff-free episode!

The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown: Song 18 — Claire from Ann ArborHey, it's jD. And welcome to the wide open middle of the countdown — that beautiful, feral terrain where deep cuts go to become legends and personal faves start to collide with consensus picks.This week on The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown, I'm joined by one of our most thoughtful and eloquent membersHIPers: Claire from Ann Arbor. We talk about discovering The Hip as a millennial from the U.S., falling hard thanks to Hockey Night in Canada, and how a steady diet of CBC and her dad's hockey tapes led her straight to 50 Mission Cap. (That's right — before she even knew the song, she knew the legend of Bill Barilko. That's parenting done right.)But what really makes this one hit different? Claire's lived experience as a disabled fan navigating concerts, fandom, and feeling safe in the crowd. Her reflections on inclusivity, identity, and finding community through The Hip are honest, funny, moving, and — in true TTHTop40 fashion — a little nerdy in the best possible way.We're not just counting down songs here. We're collecting stories. Claire's is one you'll be glad you heard.

Addendum: Matt from Portsmouth's 2013 Interview with Gord Downie As a special follow-up to Episode 11, we're bringing you something truly special—a rare, candid conversation between Matt Merritt and Gord Downie, recorded backstage at Koko in London, UK, on July 2, 2013.

Video Edition.Welcome back and coming up on this edition of the show we welcome back "Canada's Rock'n'Roll Band" The Damn Truth" who release a brand new self titled albun this wek produced by grammy award winning producer Bob Rock. Joining us today to talk about the new album the band and all the stories behind the making of what will be one of the year's best albums are Lee-la Baum, PY Letellier and Dave Traina . Accept no substitute, The Damn Truth are probably the finest rock ‘n' roll band on the planet right now.” – Metal Planet“An incendiary kaboom of commotion, with blazing vocals, powder-keg rhythms, and flaming guitars. This is immense. It's a nitro-glycerine love-bomb!” – Raw RampThe forthcoming album features the singles “Love Outta Luck,” “I Just Gotta Let You Know,” “The Willow,” and their latest single “Better This Way.” Stream all the singles on Spotify. It's no secret that one of the most exciting new bands making noise in the UK and Europe these days is Canadian. It's true, and it's The Damn Truth, a Montreal rock foursome serving up a gutsy, revved up modern reimagining of classic rock ideals. And now, after touring the UK and Europe for the last four years, The Damn Truth return with their self-titled fourth album, The Damn Truth, and, once again, produced by the legendary Bob Rock (Motley Crue, The Offspring, Bon Jovi, etc). This new album is the culmination of 12 years of hard work and constant touring; The Damn Truth are a perpetual and virtually unstoppable rock and roll machine.Fuelled by two Top 40 singles on the Canadian Active Rock Charts (“Love Outta Luck,” “I Just Gotta Let You Know”), this new album marks the next level in their relationship with Bob Rock. He has pushed the band in all areas of playing, writing, and refining the Damn Truth signature sound, most evident in the revelatory power of Lee-la Baum's vocals as evidenced on the mystic, almost Zeppelin-vibed “The Willow;” the full on bittersweet romance of “Better This Way;” the social conscience of “The Dying Dove;” the cautionary “If Don't Make It Home;” and the hell yeah rabble rousing “All Night Long.” The Damn Truth have added some extra lanes on their rock'n'roll highway as they explore new musical scenery, but the destination remains the same: organic loud rock experienced best in a crowded concert hall dripping in sweat.The album was recorded over a period of two months at Bryan Adams' Warehouse Studios in Vancouver. This is Bob Rock's favourite studio; it's a classic and gigantic old school recording haven (AC/DC had just wrapped up prior to The Damn Truth's arrival), perfect for the massive drum sound that Bob loves. Unlike their previous LP, Now or Nowhere (2021), which was hampered by Covid restrictions; this one is 100% produced and mixed by Bob Rock, who also gave the band access to his incredible collection of rare and vintage guitars for the sessions.

After a weekend full of action at the NBA All-Star Game and the NHL's 4 Nations Face-Off, the crew is full of strong takes. Chris and Mike returned with stories of interactions with Canadian hockey fans amidst a fraught time in the political discourse between the United States and Canada, but they mostly include good banter, TouchTunes, and Hooters. How much credit do the Tkachuk brothers deserve for making this weekend what it was? Is this another opportunity for the show to prove we're not an echo chamber and celebrate Donald Trump after last week's praise of his moves regarding pennies and paper straws? Plus, LeBron James sabotages an already struggling NBA All-Star game, Bob Rock, and a revisiting of Richie Incognito & Jonathan Martin's experiences in "bullygate."

This week we talk about songs and albums by artists that the artists themselves have tried to lock away and bury! This is the continuation of our series that explores what happened when bands that had success in the 80s attempted to follow trends and remain relevant in the 1990s. Listen in as we discuss the varying degrees to which this worked, or where we had to ask, “What were they thinking?”What's this InObscuria thing? Our podcast exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This time around we are bringing you the most lost of the lost. The decade of the 90s was such a polarizing time for older bands that were still trying to remain relevant. Options for 80s hard rock and glam metal bands: get heavier, go alternative or grunge, go industrial, re-brand, or stay the course…Songs this week include:Freak Of Nature – “Enemy” from Gathering Of Freaks (1994)Winger – “Junkyard Dog (Tears On Stone)” from Pull (1993)Slaughter – “American Pie” from Revolution (1997)The Newlydeads – “Free Weapons” from The Newlydeads (1997)Scorpions – “Mysterious” from Eye II Eye (1999)Europe – “All Or Nothing” from Prisoners In Paradise (1991)Chris Gaines – “White Flag” from Garth Brooks in… The Life Of Chris Gaines (1999) Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://x.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uIf you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/Check out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Dexter Holland of The Offspring. The Offspring have been kicking around for four decades, but the band are celebrating a major milestone this year — the 30th anniversary of their mainstream triumph Smash, which remains the biggest-selling rock album released on an indie label. In a similar vein as Dookie, punk purists disregarded the band when they signed to Columbia following its release, but they've only grown in stature over the years. Now, the Orange County vets are readying their 11th studio album, Supercharged (out Oct. 11), which was produced by Bob Rock and continues their streak of writing punk hits. Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the episode over at Veeps.  ------- Host: Joel Madden, @joelmadden Executive Producers: Joel Madden, Benji Madden, Jillian King Producers: Josh Madden, Joey Simmrin, Janice Leary Visual Producer/Editor: Ryan Schaefer Audio Producer/Composer: Nick Gray Music/Theme Composer: Nick Gray Cover Art/Design: Ryan Schaefer Additional Contributors: Anna Zanes, Neville Hardman Learn more about your ad choices.

On the 55th Episode of the Album Review Crew of Shout It Out Loudcast, Tom, Zeus & special guest, comedian and podcaster Don Jamieson, review the 1991 legendary album by Metallica, the self-titled album known as the "Black Album." The "Black Album" was Metallica's fifth studio album. It propelled Metallica from a small, but dedicated fan base to superstardom. Led by frontman, main lyricist and rhythm guitarist James Hetfied, polarizing drummer Lars Ulrich, guitarist extraordinaire Kirk Hammet and bassist Jason Newsted. The album features five singles including a couple ballads, which were unheard of previously and the now classic, Enter Sandman. Although they did have a video for the previous album's single, "One", Metallica really utilized MTV and the music video format to propel the "Black Album." The album made it to Number 1 on the US Billboard charts and has now gone 16X platinum, making it not only Metallica's biggest selling album, but one of the biggest selling album in history. The album was produced by Bob Rock and although it may have been a tumultuous relationship, which was documented, the result cannot be denied. As usual the boys breakdown and dissect the tracks and rank the songs. They then rank the album and the album cover against the previous albums reviewed on the Album Review Crew. This was Tom's pick. So tune in to see if the album satisfies the purist or the newbie Metallica fan and if it makes them Rock Hard!

August 28, 1989 saw the release of Dr. Feelgood, the album that would solidify Motley Crue as a sleazy, sunset strip band that had hit the big time. It included songs you would expect from Motley (She Goes Down, Slice Of Your Pie, Rattlesnake Shake) but thanks to producer Bob Rock also included 5 singles that hit the charts in the US. The band tries to be tender in spots (Without You, Time For Change) but stays true to themselves with adrenaline boosters like Kickstart My Heart, Same Ol' Situation and the title track. And though they were all over MTV and touring to huge crowds around the world, all was not right in Crue World. The band were all sober at this time. And while that might have led to better work in the studio and more consistent live shows, it also made personalities clash. This would prove to be the last album from the original line up until 1997 and certainly the last to make the sort of cultural impact the band made in the 80s. Did the more polished studio sound from Bob Rock create band factions? Did sobriety and wealth cause them to grow apart? Did the Crue just implode before they faded away?
