Send us Fan MailThis week, I'm continuing my Signature Songs series with Pat Benatar, one of the defining rock voices of the late '70s and early '80s.Benatar and Neil Giraldo built a catalog full of big guitars, big hooks, and unmistakable vocals, with songs like “Heartbreaker,” “Hit Me With Your Best Shot,” “Fire and Ice,” “Shadows of the Night,” “Love Is a Battlefield,” “We Belong,” “Invincible,” and “All Fired Up.”But which one is her signature song? In this episode, I break down Benatar's career, her biggest hits, my own personal Top 5, and the four songs I think have the strongest case before making my final pick for Pat Benatar's signature song.It's all happening this week, on the Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast.And make sure to check out the Podcast Playlist, on:Apple MusicSpotify===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook
Send us Fan MailThis week, I'm continuing my Signature Songs series with the Grateful Dead!The Dead had an incredible career without any real commercial album or single sales. They were never really a traditional hit-single band. They were a live band, a touring band, a tape-trading band, and a band whose fans were heavily invested in their music. But their signature song isn't necessarily their best song, or even their fans' favorite song — it's the song most associated with them by the general population of music fans.And yet, without chart hits, they still produced some of the most influential music of the rock-n-roll era, and so I'm looking at the major contenders, and I'll make the case for the one song that became the Grateful Dead's true calling card. It's all this week, on the Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast!And then I want to hear from you - did I get it right? Let me know what you think, and check out this week's Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast Playlist, featuring all the songs mentioned on the show:Apple Music Spotify===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook
Existiert ein Song eigentlich noch, wenn ihn niemand mehr hören kann?Mit genau dieser Frage beginnt eine der überraschend philosophischsten TuneFish-Folgen der letzten Zeit – und bevor wir überhaupt bei Abramowicz angekommen sind, landen wir zusammen mit unserem Gast Sören Warkentin, dem Sänger der Band ABRAMOWICZ, bereits bei Jürgen Habermas, Kirk Hammett, verlorenen Songideen, KI-gestützten Kompositionshilfen und der Frage, wo Musik eigentlich entsteht: auf Festplatten, in Notizbüchern oder vielleicht doch zuerst im Kopf.Dann sprechen wir intensiv über ABRAMOWICZ.Gemeinsam mit Sören tauchen wir tief ein in die Geschichte einer Hamburger Band, die sich weniger wie ein Karriereplan und mehr wie eine Aneinanderreihung glücklicher Zufälle anhört.Da wird ein Bruder zum Schlagzeuger, obwohl er noch gar nicht Schlagzeug spielen kann. Bandmitglieder werden in Kneipen, Clubs und WG-Küchen entdeckt. Ein Bandname wird von Freunden ausgeliehen und nie wieder zurückgegeben. Und aus Garage-Punk entsteht über viele Jahre hinweg eine Band, die heute irgendwo zwischen Heartland Rock, Punkrock, Americana, großen Melodien und ganz viel eigener Handschrift angekommen ist.Wir sprechen über die Entstehung des neuen Albums Joy Of Missing Out, über sieben Jahre zwischen zwei Veröffentlichungen, über selbstgebaute Studios im Bunker, demokratische Bandprozesse mit sechs Musikern und einem Produzenten, über das kreative Chaos von sieben Meinungen gleichzeitig und über die Freiheit, Songs so lange wachsen zu lassen, bis sie wirklich fertig sind.Natürlich geht es auch um Instrumente. Um Saxophone. Um Orgeln. Um die Frage, ob ein einzelnes Instrument die Seele eines Songs verändern kann. Um Live-Versionen, Studioversionen und darüber, warum manche Songs auf der Bühne plötzlich wieder völlig neue Wesen werden.Außerdem reden wir über Bruce Springsteen, The Gaslight Anthem, Heartland Rock, die Hamburger Musikszene, kreative Weiterentwicklung, Krieg, Zukunftsängste, die Freude am Verpassen, die Angst etwas zu verpassen und darüber, warum „Joy Of Missing Out“ vielleicht viel mehr ist als nur ein Albumtitel.Und als wäre das nicht schon genug Musiknerd-Material, werfen wir zwischendurch auch noch einen Blick auf unsere aktuellen Hausaufgaben-Alben von ECCA VANDAL und THE PRESTIGE und stellen fest, dass erstaunlich viele Bands gerade nach sieben, acht, neun oder sogar elf Jahren Pause mit neuer Musik zurückkehren.Eine Folge über Abramowicz.Eine Folge über Musik und über Freundschaft, Ideen, Zeit, Veränderung und die seltsame Tatsache, dass manche Songs vielleicht selbst dann noch existieren, wenn längst niemand mehr auf Play drücken kann.Viel Spaß mit Abramowicz......RUBRIK: Die HausaufgabeLars und Markus schlagen sich gegenseitig ein Album vor, das dann subjektiv auseinandergenommen wird.Wir vergeben Punkte zwischen 1 (mies) und 10 (genial). Es gibt immer jede Menge Gesprächsstoff!Ihr könnt jederzeit mitvoten. Jedes besprochene Album führen wir hier https://www.tunefish-podcast.de/hausaufgabe/ mit Wertung auf.

Send us Fan MailThis week, I'm continuing my Signature Songs series with Earth, Wind & Fire!Earth, Wind & Fire had an incredible hitmaking run from 1974 through 1983, including 16 Top 40 hits, 7 Top 10 singles, and one No. 1 song.

This week we're rewinding to one of our original Friday Night Live episodes from September 2023 — back when the chaos was fresh, the energy was high, and Tony and Rick were already driving me up a wall in the most joyful way possible.In this throwback, we cover everything from “I Love Lucy” (which I tried, I really did), to slapstick comedy, to boy bands, to gospel crossovers, to the eternal Beyoncé vs. Taylor Swift media nonsense. We debate what counts as a boy band, why certain comedy stresses me out, and whether Tony or Rick actually listens to any music made after 1998.There's nostalgia, there's music talk, there's generational shade, and of course — there's Botox honesty, because I refuse to let people lie about what keeps them looking good.It's classic Friday Night Live: fun, messy, opinionated, and full of the kind of laughter that only happens when friends show up exactly as they are.If this episode brought you a little joy, consider liking, subscribing, or sharing it with someone who might need it.As always, remember — it really is All About The Joy.Thank you for stopping by.

Nick welcomes music journalist Jim Ryan from Forbes.com back to the podcast to talk about the new Earth, Wind & Fire documentary and his recent interviews with Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil and Jon Spencer of The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. They also review recent concerts by George Clinton & Parliament-Funkadelic, Phil Manzanera, and Santana with The Doobie Brothers. Along the way, they discuss the parking headaches at Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre and the troubling trend of outdoor venues keeping shows going during dangerous weather. Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to read listener emails and talk about the new Martin Short documentary. That conversation leads to a deep dive into some of Short's wildest work, including the cult favorite Clifford. They also chat about Top Gun, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, and a handful of other topics that somehow all connect by the end. Trust us, it makes sense when you hear it. [Ep 464]

Mit Kai Wingenfelder. Wer ständig derselbe bleibt, verpasst vielleicht sein Leben.Vier Jahrzehnte Bandgeschichte. Unzählige Konzerte. Songs, die ganze Lebensabschnitte begleiten. Und trotzdem wirkt Fury in the Slaughterhouse derzeit so null wie eine Band, die ihre Vergangenheit verwaltet.Kai Wingenfelder ist zu Gast im TuneFish Musiknerd Podcast und wir sprechen über die wilden Anfangstage in Hannover, erste Bands, erste Konzerte, den Weg zum Plattenvertrag und die Frage, warum sechs Musiker überhaupt auf die Idee kamen, gemeinsam eine der erfolgreichsten deutschen Rockbands zu gründen.Natürlich geht es auch um die großen Songs, die Geschichten hinter den Texten, den Erfolg in den USA, das Songwriting bei Fury, die Dynamik innerhalb der Band, die Pause, das Comeback und die Frage, wie sich der Blick auf Musik, die Welt und das eigene Leben verändert, wenn man plötzlich auf fast 40 Jahre Bandgeschichte zurückschaut.Und dann ist da natürlich noch Changes.Das neue Album von Fury in the Slaughterhouse. Wir sprechen über Hoffnung, Veränderung, Revolutionen, Erinnerung, das Älterwerden, darüber, warum manche Kämpfe wichtiger werden und andere plötzlich ihre Bedeutung verlieren – und darüber, wie eine Band klingt, die immer noch neugierig auf die Zukunft ist.Ein Gespräch über Musik, Zeit, Perspektiven, Veränderungen und die erstaunliche Erkenntnis, dass man auch nach Jahrzehnten auf der Bühne noch längst nicht fertig mit dem Lernen ist.Viel Spaß mit Kai Wingenfelder von Fury in the Slaughterhouse und einem sehr kurzweiligen Gespräch!>>> Und natürlich machen Lars & Markus auch wieder ihre Hausaufgaben.

Send us Fan MailThis week, I'm continuing my Signature Songs series with John Mellencamp — from the Johnny Cougar years to the heartland rock classics that made him one of America's great rock-n-roll songwriters.I'll look at the major contenders, including “Hurts So Good,” “Jack & Diane,” “Pink Houses,” “Small Town,” “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.,” “Cherry Bomb,” and “Check It Out,” then make the case for the one song that I believe the general public most closely associates with Mellencamp.It's not necessarily his best song.

Send us Fan MailJust in time for Mother's Day, I'm celebrating my favorite rock and roll songs about Mothers! I'll be honest — this list was harder to build than I expected. Rock has plenty of songs that use the word “mama,” but not nearly as many that are actually about mothers. Some are loving tributes. Some are complicated memories. Some are dark psychological portraits. And a few are just flat-out fun rock-n-roll songs with a mother somewhere near the center of the story.Whether the song is about wisdom, loss, rebellion, regret, sacrifice, or the voice of a mother that stays with you long after childhood, these are the rock songs that made my Mother's Day playlist, and it's all right here, this week on the Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast!You can also check out the Podcast Playlist, either on:Apple MusicSpotify===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook

Send us Fan MailThis week on the Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast, I'm tackling a real challenge in my Signature Song series: what is The Rolling Stones' signature song?With a catalog this deep, this is not a simple call. The Stones have produced swaggering riffs, generation-defining singles, stadium anthems, and songs that have become part of the culture itself. So which one stands above the rest as the track most commonly associated with the band by the general public?In this episode, I break down the leading contenders, look at what makes a true signature song to begin with, and make the case for the one Stones classic that I believe ultimately wins the title.If you love rock history, big songs, and a good music argument, this one's for you.Podcast Playlist:Apple MusicSpotify===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook

We talk about Steve's songwriting process, the difference between writing for Ink and writing for himself, and how this long-shelved material finally became a finished album.It's a thoughtful conversation about creativity, instinct, and the songs that wait years to find their proper form.Check out the Broken Wings album on YouTube.===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook

Send a textIn Episode 2 of my Signature Song series, I'm tackling the easiest calls in rock history—the No-Brainers. These are the bands where the “signature song” debate basically ends before it starts… because the general public hears the band name and instantly thinks of one track.Along the way, I revisit what a signature song really is (hint: it's not always the most streamed song, and it's not necessarily the “best” song), and why these four bands have signature songs that have taken on a life of their own—woven into arenas, radio, movies, TV, karaoke, and pop culture.And I'm doing this to start a conversation, so I want to know - do you agree these are the signature songs… or is there a better argument for different tracks?
