In this episode, we dive into the explosive rise of Led Zeppelin and the story behind how they became the biggest band in the world. From their groundbreaking sound and larger-than-life image to the tours and records that reshaped rock music, we explore the forces that propelled Zeppelin to global dominance. Featuring an in-depth interview with Denny Somach, author of 'Get the Led Out: How Led Zeppelin Became the Biggest Band in the World', we go inside the band's journey, their cultural impact, and the legacy that still echoes through music today.Purchase a copy of Get the Led Out: How Led Zeppelin Became the Biggest Band in the World - Updated EditionVisit the RocknRoll4Grownups website----------

A listener threw down the gauntlet and we answered: Wax Wars, the ultimate rock album face-off. We're talking full-catalog giants and needle-drop staples—Fleetwood Mac versus Eagles, Zeppelin versus Floyd, The Who versus Queen, Clash versus Ramones, U2 versus R.E.M., and more—decided by a mix of song strength, cultural impact, and those stubborn memories that never leave. The fun isn't just in who wins; it's in how certain records force you to choose between a perfect side and a perfect song, between a life-changing first listen and the album that still works anywhere, anytime.We chart why Dark Side demands a full ride while Zeppelin IV shines in any shuffle. We revisit how Bohemian Rhapsody re-entered pop culture through a movie and stayed for good. We trace the shockwave of Nevermind, the summer-long dominance of Synchronicity, and the way Back in Black turned grief into an indestructible anthem machine.By the end, you'll have a fresh lens on classics like Abbey Road, Let It Bleed, Revolver, Pyromania, Blizzard of Ozz, and Elephant. You'll also hear why some albums are built for the long arc while others are engineered for constant replay. Jump in, keep score with us, and then tell us where we blew it and where we nailed it.

Episode: 1520 In which automobile makers gradually learn aerodynamics.  Today, aerodynamics and automobiles.

Dive into the thrilling tale of Clarence Terhune, the daring 19-year-old who became the world's first airship stowaway aboard the legendary Graf Zeppelin in 1928! MF Thomas uncovers the audacious adventure that blended Roaring Twenties optimism with high-altitude recklessness. From humble St. Louis roots, marked by tragedy and a thirst for exploration, Terhune honed his skills hopping freight trains, stowing away on ships to Alaska and Hawaii, and gate-crashing epic boxing matches like Tunney vs. Dempsey.When the massive LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin—776 feet of engineering marvel, commanded by Dr. Hugo Eckener—arrived in Lakehurst, New Jersey, after its stormy maiden transatlantic voyage, Terhune saw his chance. Hitchhiking from New York, he sneaked aboard amid the chaos, hiding in the mail room for a perilous return flight to Germany. Enduring freezing cold, howling storms, and hunger, he was discovered mid-journey and put to work peeling potatoes in the galley.Upon landing in Friedrichshafen, Terhune emerged a folk hero, showered with job offers, marriage proposals, and even an invitation from Zeppelin's daughter. Fined minimally and celebrated worldwide, his story symbolizes aviation's pioneering spirit and the era's blend of innovation and risk.Explore aviation history, Zeppelin facts, and untold stories of stowaways in this gripping podcast episode.

Sehr geehrte abgelutschte, gleichartige Podcaster, ich bewerbe mich als Shownotes-Specialist, weil ich in der Lage bin, aus struktureller Ineffizienz eine saubere Übersicht zu bauen. Ich kann Spielmechaniken so erklären, dass sie auch dann verständlich bleiben, wenn während der Aufnahme spontan Bonuspunkte erfunden werden. Ich kann Timecodes setzen, selbst wenn nebenbei über Steve Ballmer, alte Computerzeitschriften und den Unterschied zwischen Zeppelin und Flugzeug gestritten wird. Ich arbeite gerne in Umfeldern, in denen „Vorbereitung“ als Mythos existiert und „im Zuge der Zeit“ als Methodik gilt. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Ihr RSS-Reader

Every Wednesday, we spin the wheel, land on one randomly selected Tragically Hip song, and then do the only sensible thing: discuss, debate, and dissect it from top to bottom. That's The Tragically Hip On Shuffle. That's the game. So there's that.This week's shuffle pull: “Wild Mountain Honey” (Track 11 on Music @ Work), a song that got exactly zero votes in the Tragically Hip Top 40 Countdown universe — and, honestly, that fact alone felt like a cosmic dare. Is it an overlooked monster? A “respect more than like” deep cut? A Johnny Fay showcase hiding in plain sight?

Hello my friends and welcome to another edition of my vinyl record radio disc jockey on the internet type thing we got going over here now. I've been snowed in the house for going on 3 days and I'm not a fan. Starting to develop the first symptoms of cabin fever, which was the title of a really nice mixtape that I rather enjoyed from Wiz Khalifa back in the day. This episode serves as a rock and roll example featuring familiar sounds to this podcast. Multiple examples of Hendrix, Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, some being vintage originals and some being new remastered 180 gram wax. You can't slow and throw every rock song but when it works it works. Good googly moogly Nutshell by Alice In Chains slowed and throwed is something to behold. A catapult into your feelings. Followed up by slowed and throwed Blink 182?? Get out of town. Just the other day my faithful space heater that I've had for a long time finally went kaputz right before this blizzard hit. Thankfully I did replace it but I didn't think I'd need a big one. This has been a mild winter so I bought the tiny heater. My little pigs are frozen but hey this little soldier has been kicking I'm proud of my little heater. We're doing our best to fight through and make it til the spring. I'm all sorts of fired up about replanting my flower bed wooooooow what a beating what am I even talking about. Oh and I might actually be the world champion of air drumming In Bloom by Nirvana. Any naysayers are welcome to challenge me. Until next time..Your Host with the MostTrilly Bob Thornton

Episode: 1507 Rediscovering lighter-than-air flight.  Today, do you suppose you'll ever get to ride in a dirigible?

Today we're putting The Tonearm's needle on Patricia Brennan, a vibraphonist and composer who grew up in Veracruz, Mexico, playing salsa with her dad while listening to Hendrix and Zeppelin with her mom. She studied classical percussion at the Curtis Institute, performed with Yo-Yo Ma and the Philadelphia Orchestra, then found her voice and career in jazz and improvisation.Patricia's latest album, Of The Near And Far, takes constellations from the summer sky and turns them into music. She superimposes the circle of fifths over star patterns to generate pitches, then turns them into compositions that reflect a voice as unique as the compositional approach. Patricia's ten-piece ensemble features a jazz quintet, a string quartet, and an electronic musician, all conducted by Eli Greenhoe. Hot on the heels of her 2024 release, Breaking Stretch, which won Album of the Year and Vibraphonist of the Year in the DownBeat Critics Poll, Patricia's here to talk about finding symmetry between the cosmos and composition, why she carries a telescope wherever she goes, and how ancient myths and modern astronomy shape her work.(The musical excerpts heard in the interview are from Patricia Brennan's album Of The Near And Far)–Dig DeeperArtist and AlbumVisit Patricia Brennan at patriciabrennanvibes.com and follow her on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTubePurchase Patricia Brennan's Of The Near And Far from Pyroclastic Records, Bandcamp, or Qobuz and listen on your streaming platform of choicePatricia Brennan's acclaimed 2024 album Breaking Stretch on Pyroclastic RecordsEducational InstitutionsCurtis Institute of Music – Philadelphia conservatory where Patricia studied classical percussionYouth Orchestra of the Americas – Continental ensemble Patricia joined at age seventeenCollaborators and Ensemble MembersSylvie Courvoisier, pianistMiles Okazaki, guitaristKim Cass, bassistJohn Hollenbeck, drummer and composerKyle Armbrust, violistArktureye (Noel Brennan) – Electronic musician and Patricia's duo partner in MOCHEli Greenhoe, conductorMusical Influences and ReferencesKeiko Abe – Japanese marimbist who transformed the instrumentRadiohead – In RainbowsErik Satie – "Gnossienne No. 1"Glenn Gould performing BachPhilip Glass – String QuartetsGyörgy Ligeti – AtmosphèresGrachan Moncur III – Evolution featuring Bobby HutchersonKid Koala – Canadian turntablistEighth Blackbird – Contemporary chamber music ensembleFania All-Stars – Legendary salsa supergroupComposers MentionedTōru Takemitsu – Japanese composerIannis Xenakis – Greek-French composerKarlheinz Stockhausen – German composerEdgard Varèse – French-American composerJohn Cage – American experimental composerSteve Reich – American minimalist composerDavid Lang – Pulitzer Prize-winning composer, Bang on a Can co-founderAstronomical ReferencesAndromeda Galaxy (M31) – Nearest major galaxy to the Milky WayCircle of fifths – Music theory concept used in Patricia's compositional systemConstellation guide – Reference for the star patterns inspiring the albumNASA's Sounds of Space – Astronomical recordings translated into audio–Dig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

 The British military once opened fire on a bright object in the night sky—confident it was an enemy Zeppelin airship. It wasn't. It was Venus. This true World War I story explores how reasonable certainty can still be wrong, and why that lesson still matters.During the First World War, soldiers did exactly what they were trained to do when the sky itself became dangerous. The result was a perfectly logical mistake—and a quiet reminder about how confidence can arrive before understanding.If this story stayed with you, you probably know someone else who might appreciate it.________________________________________

Episode 174 – The Wheel Has Spoken! On this episode of Rock Roulette, the wheel spins and lands on Greta Van Fleet's From the Fires. We kick off our dive into the band that had everyone doing double-takes and asking, “Is that Zeppelin?

What if Led Zeppelin had a long-lost twin that nobody remembers? In this episode of Dig Me Out, we unearth Leafhound's 1971 proto-metal masterpiece Growers of Mushroom—an album that had all the ingredients for greatness but somehow slipped through the cracks of rock history . With a Robert Plant-caliber vocalist, Jimmy Page-inspired guitar tones, and riffs heavy enough to rival Black Sabbath, Leafhound created one of the most compelling “what if?” stories in early 70s heavy rock .Born from the remains of Black Cat Bones—the band that spawned Free's Paul Kossoff and Simon Kirk, plus Foghat's Rod Price—Leafhound emerged with vocalist Peter French and a sound that captured the raw, blues-drenched fury of the era . Released on Decca Records in 1971, Growers of Mushroom represents that crucial moment when heavy rock was still finding itself, experimenting with psychedelic tangents, folk influences, and proto-metal darkness before the genre lines were drawn .In this deep dive, hosts Jason, Tim, and Chip explore why this album works so well sonically while examining its fatal flaw: great performances without truly memorable songs . We discuss the album's massive guitar tones, the Plant-inspired vocal howls, and those adventurous moments where Leafhound breaks from the Zeppelin/Sabbath template to explore jazzy, psychedelic, and Southern rock territories . From the buzzing intensity of “Freelance Fiend” to the eight-minute odyssey of “Work My Body,” this is an album that demands attention—even if it never quite delivers the knockout punch .If you love Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Mountain, Cactus, Atomic Rooster, or Deep Purple, this episode is essential listening. We're diving deep into the Heavy 70s—that glorious era of custom vans, tinted sunglasses, and amps cranked to the point of speaker destruction .Episode Highlights0:00 – Intro & “Freelance Fiend”Overview of Leafhound's place in 1971 heavy rock, the band's origins in Black Cat Bones, and why this album won our December 70s Rock poll with 46% of the vote .2:15 – The Album Poll ResultsBreaking down the four albums in contention: Armageddon (1975), Leafhound's Growers of Mushroom (1971), Bloodrock (1970), and Toad (1971), plus community reactions from our Metal Union members .6:45 – Band History: From Black Cat Bones to LeafhoundHow Paul Kossoff and Simon Kirk left to form Free, Rod Price departed for Foghat, and vocalist Peter French assembled a new lineup that would record two albums before dissolving .13:30 – What Works: The Led Zeppelin DNAAnalyzing the lead singer/lead guitarist dynamic, the Plant-inspired vocal howls, the Leslie West guitar tones, and that stripped-down 70s performance-based intensity .15:25 – “Freelance Fiend”The album's killer opening track with its razor-sharp buzz, cowbell, and Mountain-style riffing .18:05 – “Drown My Life in Fear”The album's standout moment—a bass-driven, Sabbath-influenced doom track with slide guitar textures and Robert Plant-caliber vocals .22:47 – The Zeppelin ComparisonsWhy this album sounds like the Creed to Led Zeppelin's Pearl Jam—familiar DNA, different execution .24:30 – “Work My Body”An eight-minute journey featuring jazzy blues guitars, multiple structural shifts, and an unexpected organ-driven finale that recalls Deep Purple .29:00 – “With A Minute to Go”Breaking down the song's direct lift of the cadence from Led Zeppelin's “What Is and What Should Never Be” .35:59 – What Doesn't Work: The Missing HooksHonest conversation about why great guitar tones and performances aren't enough without memorable choruses and compelling songwriting .40:15 – “Stray” & The Sabbath InfluenceHow Leafhound shifts between Zeppelin-inspired blues rock and Black Sabbath's minor-key doom throughout the album .44:00 – Recording & ProductionDiscussing those massive, fuzzy 70s guitar tones—how they achieved speaker distortion, fuzz pedals, and that buzzing quality unique to early heavy rock .53:22 – The Aftermath: What Happened NextPeter French's move to Atomic Rooster and Cactus, the band's 2004 reunion, and the 2022 expanded reissue of Growers of Mushroom .58:10 – “Growers of Mushroom”The album's trippy, psychedelic title track that evokes the Amboy Dukes and late-60s acid rock .1:02:00 – Final Verdict & Album RankingsWhere Growers of Mushroom stands among other 70s heavy rock discoveries, and whether this album deserves cult classic status or remains a well-executed footnote .Join the ConversationLove discovering forgotten heavy rock?

Hello my friends, welcome to another edition of DJ Witwicky's radio show. Happy New Year to all loyal listeners and Keisha. For Christmas, the previous installment was a rather melancholy display of the blues, Lightnin' Hopkins in particular. Now for the New Year, my newest dance episode. Combining old and new, obscure and corporate. More importantly, I have recently updated the Feng Shui of the podcast room. This is what I've wanted this room to look like for years. It only took a tapestry display ladder, bluetooth lamp and a blooming Zygo Cactus to get where I needed to be. I'm basically aura farming in this room at all times now. Another addition, I was given a vintage CD player that looks like a turntable for Christmas which serves as a welcome addition to the Tower of Power.  For those wondering, my pre-existing CD collection includes an original release of Channel Orange by Frank Ocean, multiple copies of Kanye albums some unopened, an autographed CD from The Weeknd, Linkin Park - Jay Z collab, multiple from Zeppelin and Sabbath. I've been eyeing Harmon Kardon receivers and speaker systems lately for the final upgrade to the pod room. I sincerely hope that my fantastic listening audience had a wonderful holiday break, I'm looking forward to the new year. As always, thank you for being here. Hope you enjoyed itYour favorite internet disc jockey,Witwicka Juan Don

This week, the carnage from Rock Court Season 2 spills over on your Regarding…Slang hosts Chaz, Wolfie, Scotzo, and podcasting overlord Corey as they're joined by the ever-opinionated Judge Kevin Brown and Michael Pastore for a sprawling, raucous wrap-up of Def Leppard's “Slang” era and its B-sides. As the crew closes out the album, they dig into “Pearl of Euphoria” and a handful of deep cuts, wrestling with Def Leppard's late-90s identity crisis and the merits of ballads, B-sides, and band evolution.Before the music spins, the crew swaps stories about Def Leppard's setlists and the strange fate of “Slang” in the band's legacy. Chaz recalls seeing the band during this era, while Corey and Kevin debate the wisdom of chasing trends versus sticking to your sound. Scott admits to playlist curation anxiety as he tries to salvage the album with B-sides, and Wolfie confesses he's never really been a Leppard guy—despite decades of Chaz's endless inquiry, "Do you like Dep Leppard? I like Dep Leppard."The songs themselves? Opinions fly. “Pearl of Euphoria” is dissected for its Zeppelin-esque drums, U2 atmospherics, and meandering structure. B-sides like “Can't Keep Away from the Flame” and Euphoria-era “Burnout” spark enthusiasm, with the crew praising their authenticity and party-rock energy—even as they admit these tracks don't fit the album's mood. Covers and demos are sampled, with reactions ranging from “surprisingly great” to “why not just listen to the original?”This episode features:

In this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast, Mason talks with Brit Del Toro about losing her infant son, Zeppelin, the ripple effects of that tragedy on her marriage and mental health, and the support and judgment she faced while navigating postpartum depression and grief. Brit also shares the recent loss of her husband, Troy, who struggled with addiction, bipolar disorder, and chronic pain before taking his own life. Together, they discuss the stigma around suicide, parenting through trauma, and the daily effort it takes to stay present for her children while rebuilding a sense of purpose. Brit's honesty offers insight into the realities of grief and the strength it takes to choose hope one day at a time.

You follow Demetri Papanicolau's winding path from Fidelity financial consultant to full-time booking agent and working musician, discovering how taking risks, saying yes to scary gigs, and learning from every stage moment shaped his career. You hear how singing AC/DC and Zeppelin in high school, drilling Beatles harmonies, and navigating the evolution from originals to covers built the chops he still relies on today. As you ride through stories of surprise band formations, COVID-era pivots, and the birth of Rotten Apple, you're reminded that you must Always Be Performing, even when the gig you expected turns into something entirely different. You also step inside Demetri's world at Notso Costley Productions, where booking is equal parts diplomacy, coaching, and reading the room. He breaks down what venues actually want, what musicians consistently get wrong, and how reliability wins more than draw. You learn how he balances the needs of solos, duos, trios, and full bands; why non-verbal communication and a good hang matter; how to build an EPK that gets you on a roster; and what happens when rates rise across the scene.

In this episode of the LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl, host Scott Dudelson sits down with singer-songwriter Lee Michaels, writer/performer of the 1971 hit “Do You Know What I Mean.” Beyond that blue-eyed soul classic, Michaels built one of the most unconventional careers in music history. A bona fide late-'60s/early-'70s rockstar, Michaels sold out major venues, scored chart success, jammed with Jimi Hendrix, shared bills with Led Zeppelin, and played a key role in the development of the San Francisco scene alongside bands like Jefferson Airplane and Moby Grape. Burned out creatively, he walked away from the industry in the mid-'70s and reinvented himself—finding new success as a world class boxing manager, restaurateur and AI innovator, with stories from these times just as wild as his music years.   Cameron Crowe devotes a full chapter to Michaels in The Uncool; this conversation digs deeper into a singular, surprising legacy that Crowe praised so heavily in his book.  This episode contains personal stories and recollections shared by Lee Michaels and the views and accounts are based on his own historical remembrances.  If you enjoy the episode, please follow, subscribe, rate, and join us on Instagram and YouTube @alldayvinyl.

Motörhead - Ace of Spades: The Bar Band That Redefined Metal (Whether They Liked It Or Not)What happens when you salvage a beaten‑up classic from the graveyard? You discover why Motörhead's Ace of Spades remains one of the most influential rock albums of all time—even if Lemmy himself refused to call it metal.Recorded in six weeks during the summer of 1980 and unleashed that October, Ace of Spades is 36 minutes of raw, boogie‑infused rock and roll cranked up to 11. On this episode of Dig Me Out: 80s Metal, hosts Jason Ziad, Tim Minneci, and Chip Midnight resurrect this second‑chance poll winner to explore why this album sounds like nothing else—and why that matters.The classic lineup of Lemmy Kilmister, “Fast” Eddie Clarke, and Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor weren't trying to invent metal. They were channeling Chuck Berry, ZZ Top, and Thin Lizzy through a blown amp, adding a danceable swing that inspired everyone from Metallica and Slayer to The Hellacopters and New Bomb Turks. This is the sound of a band that knew exactly what they did well and executed it with surgical precision—even when they got sick of playing “Ace of Spades” every night.If you love early Van Halen, AC/DC, the Ramones, or the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, this episode is for you. We break down how Lemmy's voice became the second guitar, why Eddie Clarke's playing is criminally underrated, and what it means when an album charts everywhere from Sweden to Greece but barely makes a dent in the U.S.Episode Highlights00:00 – Intro: Why this listener‑suggested album almost didn't happen01:38 – The “second chance poll” rescue mission and how Testament won the first round05:42 – Chip's legendary three‑question interview with Lemmy (spoiler: he left to “freshen his drink”)10:09 – Album history: recorded August–September 1980, produced by Vic Maile (Hendrix, Zeppelin, Clapton)14:25 – Lemmy's time in Hawkwind, The Damned, and as Jimi Hendrix's roadie17:29 – (We Are) The Road Crew – Why Lemmy's tribute to roadies still makes crew members cry18:20 – The “Ace of Spades” legend: Why Lemmy sang “eight of spades” for years and nobody noticed19:02 – What Works: Jay breaks down the 70s swing, boogie‑rock energy, and danceable aggression25:14 – Fast and Loose – The ZZ Top‑meets‑Motörhead shuffle that proves this is rock and roll27:07 – How Motörhead influenced thrash, punk, and 90s action rock (Hellacopters, New Bomb Turks)31:54 – The Chase Is Better Than the Catch – The Van Halen‑inspired riff that almost wasn't34:18 – Eddie Clarke's guitar genius: Why “Fast” Eddie is the secret weapon of this album37:58 – What Doesn't Work: Aged lyrics, formulaic moments, and why Lemmy's voice is an acquired taste42:34 – Why fade‑outs are the album's worst decision48:53 – Final Verdicts: Worthy Album, Better EP, or Decent Single?55:37 – Gavin Reed gets credit for suggesting this album (and arguing with Jay about whether it's metal)Keep the Conversation GoingThis album came back from the dead because a listener like you suggested it.

Featured Musician: The Band Feel THE VIDEO: [After THE JUMP: Things discussable.]  --------------------- Not necessarily in this order. 1. Maryland Preview: Offense starts at around noon They have a kid quarterback too, but Malik Washington doesn't have an offensive line or a running game to help him. He does have a redzone threat in Shaleak Knotts and a couple of other productive receivers. That offensive line is the problem—their left tackle is from Central Connecticut State and he's not even their worst OL. Their TE room is banged up and bad at blocking. The RB and TE are good receivers but don't contribute much to the run game either, and somebody on this team has to protect the QB. 2. Maryland Preview: Defense starts at around 12:20 PM They're very young—younger than we are. Remember when Jalen Huskey picked off JJ McCarthy in the endzone? Hint: it was the game JJ threw interceptions in 2023 and made us feel bad briefly. They're opportunistic in the secondary, and won some games early in the season because they pick the ball off. They also have some transfers who make the passing game tough sledding: an Ohio vagabond who gets the backfield, a true freshman pass rusher that M had its eye on. Safeties are the returning starters and the best part of the defense, but have to hang back and clean up after the kids. Prescription: pound 'em. 3. Hoops: TCU and MTSU After-Action Report starts around 12:40 PM This team can be maddening. They have eight to nine starters who will take over a game or throw it away on any given possession. Aday Mara can be inconsistent even when his height isn't, and that's why they're 6th in Kenpom. Team fixed its rebounding issues and sprung some major turnover issues that allowed MTSU back into a game they were out of, before they were out of it again. The Blue Raiders settled for a lot of jumpers—contested threes or pullup other twos, while M is scoring 1.4 PPP at the rim. That formula is going to work against a lot of teams, but San Diego State and Auburn are going to be real threats. 4. Northwestern After Review starts at around 1:00 PM Andrew Marsh, come on down. Already on star watch and boy do we like that. Bryce was pretty good except when he threw a REALLY BAD freshman interception and an only kinda bad OC interception because they went to the well one too many times against Robert Fitzgerald, who balled out. Run game: Jordan Marshall is special but Bryson Kuzdzal is playable. Offensive line continues to do well against this level of competition; got 70% of their available yards against a very good defense. Defensively Seth thinks he's figured out (finally) why Michigan's rotations are what they are, in part because Michigan finally figured out their rotations. They also tried a new 3-3-5 defensive strategy that uses Barham as a linebacker and Hausmann as a hybrid, but it suffered the same fate as a lot of Wink ideas when he springs something new. Fine games from Brandyn Hillman and Mason Curtis; not as mad at Bowles as I thought we'd be. Cam Brandt: that's still weird, at least in pass rush, but he did some things in the run game to justify himself again. Featured Artist: The Band Feel You know here at MGoBlog we're fans of the un-Googleable. The Band Feel, which will be at The Pig in a few weeks, looks, acts, and sounds like a lost act from the early 1970s. But man does it ever work now, and it's not like the psychedelic ideas stopped coming when all the Zeppelin knockoffs drank themselves into glam. The Band Feel picks up where Beck, Sabbath, Deep Purple, etc. left off, but they also work in all the threads that have been developed since. The hit is "Shoal Creek" which sounds like a long lost Led Zeppelin song, but I stumbled on "Fly Birdy, Fly" which weaves in some of the bluegrassy ideas that became country back into rock. Goodbye Virginia is off their 2024 EP but the others are from their newest album Into the Sun. Songs: Icarus Fly Birdy, Fly Goodbye Virginia Also because Across 110th Street will get our Youtubes taken down, the opener and outro: “The Employee is Not Afraid”—Bear vs. Shark “Ruska Vodka”—Motorboat

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, host Dave Gebroe talks with the epitome of DIY punk spirit (who can also write a pop hook like the best of ‘em), the great Mark Robinson (of Unrest, Grenadine, Air Miami, Flint Flon, Uncomfortable Police, et al), and together they discuss Billy Joel's entire recorded output with commentary, stories, and star ratings for every release. If you're a long-time listener, then you know that Dave has harbored a long-time hatred of Billy Joel…so why the sudden turnaround in taste? Discograffiti's Mark Robinson Tackles Billy Joel (But Only Metaphorically) Series dissects every last release Billy Joel's ever had a hand in creating. Part 1 tackles his turmoil-ridden ancient history, including early bands The Hassles and Attila, plus his debut LP, Cold Spring Harbor.  Here are just a few of the many things that Mark discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Dave's complete revolution in taste from abject hatred of anything Billy Joel-related to discovering to his shock that he actually likes him; How first wife Elizabeth's glue-sniffing brother's crazed antics gave Billy his initial big break in first band The Hassles; How The Hassles metamorphosed into Billy's sole foray into Zeppelin-inspired head-banging with his duo Attila;  An overview of his early days struggling with depression, which culminated in Billy attempting suicide twice in a row; How that experience turned his life around and led to his career finally taking off; And an in-depth deep dive on the early Hassles records, plus every song off Attila and his debut Cold Spring Harbor.

FULL SHOW DESCRIPTION Renowned rock historian, producer, DJ, and author Denny Somach joins Metal Mayhem ROC to explore the newly updated 2025 edition of his classic book Get the Led Out: How Led Zeppelin Became the Biggest Band in the World, originally released in 2012. Denny recounts Zeppelin's journey from The New Yardbirds to worldwide domination, shares never-before-told stories from his decades in radio, and reveals how his infamous Howard Stern Show appearance reignited the “Stairway to Heaven” song-theft controversy. He discusses the Black Sabbath–Led Zeppelin jam rumor, the inside details of the Stairway lawsuit, and hints at unreleased Zeppelin live recordings that might finally see daylight. Somach also teases his latest project, Rock and Roll for Grown-Ups, and reflects on 50 years of chronicling rock history.

When The Wolf saw that Jason Bonham was bringing his Led Zeppelin Evening to town he was interested but a little skeptical. Though John Bonham's oldest child is now a grandfather himself with four decades of experience, I didn't know what kind of show it would be. Turns out not only has Jason assembled an incredible band that can truly do justice to Led Zeppelin classics but Jason gives us a glimpse into his brief time with his dad. As MC between songs, Bonham helps keep the crowd loose with his laid back persona and sly humor which keeps the fans engaged. Sharing stories about John and also fanboying with Jimmy Page and Robert Plant (they had to limit him to 2 Zeppelin questions a day during the Celebration Day rehearsals) give the audience what they want - direct connection to the men who made this incredible music. And the band are fantastic. James Dylan (Vocals, acoustic) can hit some of those classic Plant notes while Alex Howland provides part of the John Paul Jones roll on keys and acoustic. The other half is Dorian Heartsong on bass/mandolin - all of them are brilliant players. But Jimmy Sakurai has taken on the essence of Jimmy Page with his hair, clothing, movements and equipment. He not only looks the part but he's got the tracks down and it makes for a fun night of Led Zeppelin - a night where they celebrate Physical Graffiti at 50 by playing the whole thing! After Custard Pie and The Rover, they played the songs out of order with Jason dipping in and out to share his own stories of learning to love Led Zeppelin and other music of his generation (Stewart Copeland is way better than you Dad!). During the acoustic set they all sit on the drum riser and Jason tells us why they used to give Bonzo a tambourine for the acoustic Zep sets. From there they build to a crescendo using all the power the 1975 double album had to offer, ending with one John Bonham co-wrote by telling Jimmy dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun.

A note from Danielle: Hello, my loves. For the month of November 2025, we are going to focus on business-related topics, and I'm bringing out the best of my business hits. Today, we're talking about authentic intelligence—rather than, as opposed to, instead of, a better option than—artificial intelligence. As I'm recording this intro right now, I'm sitting in a hotel room in London, England, shortly after I've come off stage giving a talk to a room full of mostly female business entrepreneurs. I asked them at the beginning of the day if they wanted to talk about AI, and they groaned. And I said, "Well, we've got to do it."  I'm always willing to be the contrarian if it's all in service to truth. This podcast conversation is in service to the truth of what I believe the fact to be: that AI is where your intuition goes to die. On that note, welcome to today's episode of With Love, Danielle. *This episode originally aired as Episode 138 on October 16, 2024.  Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, and Zeppelin… what's your creative archetype? And what's the Divine Feminine principle got to do with your creative edge? A lot. In this episode, we're defining creative integrity in wacky times—no matter how tempting tech might be. Want to read the Slack memo I sent to my team about ChapGPT? Ya! (Spoiler: it's a tool, not a replacement for your brilliance).  Presence cannot be outsourced. It is not going to fool the heart.

Send us a textA 15-year, 135-proof legend on the table with a harmonica legend in the chair—this one hits from the first clink. We invited our bandmate Marc to the studio and opened a 2023 George T. Stagg from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, then followed the whiskey wherever it led: into the heart of Chicago blues, the chaos of a second-row Zeppelin show in '75, and the craft behind carrying a box of harmonicas in every key.We start with the nose—char, leather, dark fruit, brown sugar—before tackling the palate's big swing from spice to sweetness and that long, oily finish. Along the way we break down the Antique Collection's fall releases, why these bottles drop before the holidays, and what makes this year's addition of a bonded Colonel E.H. Taylor such a buzz. If you've ever wondered why “burnt” can taste great in bourbon, how mash bills shape sweetness without wheat, or how to enjoy high proof without nuking your taste buds, you'll leave with practical tips you can use on your next pour.Marc's stories give the episode its backbone: Muddy Waters playing a high school gym, late nights at the Checkerboard Lounge, and the reminder that most classic rock owes a quiet debt to the blues. Our SIP rating (Shareable, Influence, Price) keeps us honest about scarcity and cost: Stagg earns big respect on influence, gets shared only with folks who can handle the proof, and remains a bargain at MSRP but a gulp on secondary. We end the night with a few harp notes, a nod to The Doors, and a toast to opening special bottles with the right people. If you enjoy high-proof bourbon, music lore, and straight talk on tasting, hit play, subscribe, and leave a quick review—what's your favorite pour for cold-weather nights?

“Y'all don't have to make everything about everything…”   Time has a strange way of playing with the mind and blurring perceptions. For example, 24 years is effectively a quarter of a century, and while that sounds like a pretty vast swath of time, in reality it is merely a tiny speck in the grand scheme of the endless universe. To put it another way, as of the date of this episode in 2025, it has been the same amount of time (24 years) since 2001, which included the launch of Wikipedia, the September 11th attacks, and the very first iPod by Apple.   In keeping with the relativity of time, NATIVITY IN BLACK: A TRIBUTE TO BLACK SABBATH was released way back in 1994, a whopping 24 years after the groundbreaking eponymous debut from Birmingham's founding fathers of metal. At that time, in the early 90's, it seemed as if eons of time had elapsed from the release of Sabbath's debut until the release of this tribute honoring the classic Ozzy era of Sabbath from the 1970's and their collective contributions to the heavy metal canon.    To take the concept of time just a step further, Black Sabbath recently played their final concert (Back To The Beginning) 55 years after the release of their debut album, and it has now been 31 years (as of the date of this episode, in 2025) since the NATIVITY IN BLACK compilation was unleashed upon the metal world, featuring some real bangers from metal bands spanning a variety of subgenres that still holds up to this day.   Discover the proper pronunciation of names which you have been saying the wrong way you're entire life, including “Schuldiner, Peart, and chimpanzee”, hear our latest movie pitch for Rob Zombie, and remember the reason for feeling uneasy when you are unable to “touch bottom” after you JOIN US as we dive in to the first compilation of Black Sabbath covers that was cheekily named after Bill Ward's beard with NATIVITY IN BLACK: A TRIBUTE TO BLACK SABBATH.

Send us a textA twenty-year reunion turns into a masterclass on survival, adaptation, and the art of playing for keeps. We sit down with guitarist, writer, and singer George Cintron to trace a line from a Puerto Rican household in Bayshore—where top 40 radio was the cultural gateway—to roaring Long Island clubs, studio sessions with heavy hitters, and a phone call that vaulted him onto arena stages with Enrique Iglesias. George shares how a gold-top Les Paul and theory class became real gigs, why auditions used to be about skill, and how the drinking age shift quietly gutted a thriving band economy.The story pulls no punches on today's bar math: band pay that never rose, owners who book by headcount, and hobby acts undercutting rates. Yet it's not a rant; it's a roadmap. You'll hear the Enrique break—how speaking Spanish got George hired to help form the touring band and teach phonetics to non-Spanish speakers—and what it felt like when Bailamos turned a summer tour into a year-end sprint. Then we jump to Trans Siberian Orchestra and the long-running Windborne Music shows, where Zeppelin, Queen, and Pink Floyd get rebuilt with a full symphony and a rock band at center. Charts are precise, subs are surgical, and the result draws multiple generations without diluting the punch.Woven through the tour stories are studio truths (why producers say “be yourself” then ask for less), candid talk about health and aging, and the case for steady rehearsal as the secret engine of great bands. If you care about live music, gig economics, and how players actually make it work, this conversation is a clear-eyed, generous guide.

We finish up with the exquisite audience recording of 4/24/69 with Led Zeppelin at the Fillmore West. I play the last two unplayed songs on the recording, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, and White Summer/Black Mountainside. Both are hungry young Zeppelin on the rise. Good stuff.

"Led Zeppelin's Shadow Song: The True Story of Dazed and Confused" The Not Old Better Show, Music Today Interview Series  

As teenagers, The Wolf & Action Jackson dreamed of seeing Led Zeppelin live. However, the boys came of age in the 1980s after the band had broken up following the death of John Bonham. They were forced to live with ill-fated one-off reunions like Live Aid, Atlantic Records 40th and Knebworth. While they jumped at the chance to see Page/Plant in the mid-90s doing reworked versions of Zeppelin classics, they knew it would never be the same as a proper Led Zeppelin concert back in the day. On this 27th edition of First Concert Memories, the monthly sidecast from the hosts of The Ugly American Werewolf in London Rock Podcast, the boys are psyched to speak with Tony Michaelides. Tony had the rare privilege to see Led Zeppelin as a teenager in Manchester right before they blasted their way to superstardom. He tells the story of Robert Plant inviting him backstage to meet the rest of the guys in the band after the show and how having a signed Zeppelin poster made him the talk of the school yard that next week. However, this was actually just the beginning of Tony going backstage and interacting with artists as he would eventually have a 4 decade career in the music biz working with such luminaries as David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Steve Winwood and more. Tony has gone on to write books about his experience in the industry and hosts a podcast, Moments That Rock, which share some of his amazing stories from over the years. We may not always be able to keep him on point but we do talk a bit about the show, Zeppelin's place in history and how the industry has changed over the years. A fun chat with a true rock veteran!
