Podcasts about ZZ Top

This is an Encore Presentation of my March 2022 interview with Leisa Re, who has been a member of The Ukelele Orchestra Of Great Britain for 15 years. The Ukes - as they are affectionately known - have performed all over the world including for The Queen on the occasion of her 90th birthday. They look like a classical string quartet with their formalwear, but then they rock out playing songs by AC/DC, The Who, ZZ Top, Bowie and many more. A wild, entertaining experience!My featured song in this episode is “It Is A Miracle To Me” from the album East Side Sessions by my band Project Grand Slam.

This week is the seventh volume of our deep dive into the trippy and groovy beginnings of the heavy stuff! Cut your lava lamp on, gaze at that blacklight poster through the haze of smoke, and join your favorite rock n' roll grave robbers as they dig deep into the core of 70s Acid Rock n' Proto Metal crypt to unearth some obscure bands that helped influence and mold what would become known as Heavy Metal. What is it that we do here at InObscuria? Well, we exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This particular episode is planted firmly in the: LOST category, as all of these recordings occurred between 1970 – 1976. As always, our hope is that we turn you on to something new in a genre and decade that you may have thought you already knew everything there was to know.Songs this week include:Agnes Strange - “Messin' Around” from Strange Flavour (1975)Socrates Drank The Conium - “Death Is Going To Die” from On The Wings (1973)Piraña - “Thinking Of You” from Pirana II (1972)Zior - “I Really Do” from Zior (1971)November - “Ganska Långt Från Sergel” from 2:a November (1971)The Power Of Zeus - “It Couldn't Be Me” from The Gospel According To Zeus (1970)Wicked Lester - “She” from Wicked Lester (1972)El Ritual documentary in Spanish on YouTube from 2022 https://youtu.be/K1xz6R9nH3k?si=Gd6I90SC19ZkOLWmPlease 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'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/If 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/

I once had a conversation with someone about the craziest tours in the history of music…the usual names came up.   The who trashing hotel rooms…led zeppelin's tours with their private jet, groupies, and tons of drugs…that time in Atlanta when Ozzy drank himself into oblivion, passed out in the wrong hotel room for 24 hours, and missed a show as a result.   In 1976, ZZ Top tried to take the entire Texas experience on the road, which involved transporting real live animals to every gig…a buffalo escaped and managed to wreck nine rented limos that were parked at the gig.   Around the same time, there was the disastrous Sex Pistols tour of America…there were also stories about The Rolling Stones, Metallica, Van Halen, and all the usual suspects. But the conversation turned to the subject of the most depraved and dangerous tour of all time…who was responsible for that?... Motley Crue?...Marilyn Manson?...Oasis?   The debate when on for some time—until someone mentioned a road trip in 1993 that nearly killed every member of the group.   We're not talking about any sort of violence…it was a tour featuring so much alcohol, so many drugs, and so much stupid behaviour that members suffered heart attacks, seizures, serious mental illness, and overdoses so serious that one member was clinically dead for two minutes.  That was a summary of something called “The Devotional Tour”…at the centre of it was Depeche Mode…it has gone down in rock history as “the most debauched rock tour ever”.   This is episode 37 of “Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry”…an inside look at the tour that nearly took down Depeche Mode forever…and it was all their fault.

"Automotive Douchebags" is a greasy, blues-rock anthem calling out the chrome-clad, neon-lit posers of the car world. With a swagger straight out of ZZ Top's heyday and a snarl worthy of early Aerosmith, this track lays down a nasty groove and rips into the ego-fueled antics seen at every intersection, parking lot, and burnout pit. Loud, proud, and hilariously savage, Automotive Douchebags is a must-blast for anyone who's ever rolled their eyes at a souped-up bro-mobile. #BluesRock #ZZTopVibes #CarCulture #GearheadLife #BluesyGroove #RockNRoll #SongRelease #FunnyRockSongs #GuitarDriven #AutomotiveDouchebags #CarMeets #RockAnthem #NewMusic #IndieRock #BluesGuitar "Vader's Slantnose" is a gritty, high-octane rock anthem that mashes up Star Wars swagger with raw car culture. Fueled by crunchy guitar riffs, a pounding beat, and a heavy blues groove, the track paints a vivid picture of Darth Vader cruising the galaxy in a blacked-out Porsche 911 Turbo Slantnose. With lyrics that fuse dark power and turbocharged speed, the song captures the attitude of the Dark Side — cool, relentless, and unstoppable. Perfect for fans of classic rock, custom rides, and a little bit of sci-fi edge.

If you thought supercars were crazy, wait 'til you meet the real flex — Porsche's Paint to Sample (PTS) program. "PTS (Porsche Tax Syndrome)" is a greasy, blues-powered anthem about chasing rare colors, emptying wallets, and flexing your bespoke badge of honor. With heavy riffs, a sly grin, and a nod to ZZ Top swagger, this track slaps down the truth: in the world of Porsches, even your paint costs a fortune. Rare colors, rare attitudes — crank it up and paint it your way. #PTS #Porsche #PaintToSample #PorscheLife #RareCars #SupercarFlex #CarEnthusiast #CarCulture #BluesRock #ZZTopVibes #CarSongs #CustomCars #PTSdreams Stay connected with The Collector Car Podcast—find us on our Website, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, or reach out to Greg directly via email.

Jamie James, guitarist, singer, and songwriter, joins Charles on Seeing Them Live to discuss his musical journey and new album Straight Up, released on Oglio Records.Jamie reflects on his early musical influences, growing up in Woodstock, Ontario, and his transition from aspiring hockey player to musician after a knee injury. He shares how he taught himself guitar on a damaged acoustic and recalls receiving his first real guitar as a Christmas gift in 1966. The conversation turns to Jamie's formative concert experiences, including seeing Tommy James and the Shondells, Deep Purple, Sly and the Family Stone, The Who, and an early performance by Queen in a small London club. Jamie describes how these shows influenced his approach to live performance. He recounts his time in the 1970s rock scene, playing with various bands before joining the New Steppenwolf in 1977. After leaving the New Steppenwolf, Jamie formed The Kingbees, an ‘80s rockabilly trio that gained a cult following.A favorable review in LA Weekly helped them gain popularity, attracting large crowds to their shows. He discusses their unique rockabilly-inspired style, which predated the Stray Cats and MTV, and his personal shift toward a Buddy Holly-influenced guitar approach. Jamie also shares anecdotes about the LA music scene, recalling interactions with The Blasters and Blackie Dammett, father of Anthony Kiedis, who became an informal emcee for The Kingbees. Additionally, he recounts signing with RSO Records in 1980, initially seeing little success until their song My Mistake gained radio traction in Detroit. This newfound exposure led to major performance opportunities, including a replacement slot at the Toledo Speedway Jam alongside ZZ Top, AC/DC, and Sammy Hagar; a wild gig that took an unexpected turn involving a whiskey bottle that injured an audience member.After the Kingbees disbanded in 1981, Jamie pursued a solo career, but his EP failed to resonate with him. A chance encounter with actor Harry Dean Stanton at a July 4th gathering led to a close friendship and musical collaboration that lasted for years. Jamie formed a band with Stanton, regularly performing at The Lighthouse and The Mint. Later, he connected with actor Dennis Quaid, leading to the formation of The Sharks, a band that endured for nearly 20 years.A severe health scare in 2020 prompted Jamie to recommit to songwriting, leading to the creation of new music during the Covid pandemic. Despite financial challenges, his bandmates were eventually drawn in by the strength of his songs, paving the way for his latest album, Ain't No Big Thing (https://oglio.com/).Jamie's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and an enduring love for making music.

Rick Estrin and Nathan James join me on episode 131 for a retrospective on James Harman.James ‘Icepick' Harman was born in Anniston, Alabama in 1946. After moving between various locations, including Florida, New York, New Orleans and Chicago, he settled down in Southern California in the early 1970s where he established himself in the vibrant blues scene there.Harman was a formidable song writer and had his own unique view on life which he delivered through his powerful singing voice. His harmonica playing was highly accomplished but he didn't get too bogged down in the technicalities of the instrument, just playing it to great effect.Harman released numerous albums under his own name from the 1970s to 2019, and also recorded with other artists, including three albums with ZZ Top.Links:Nathan James website: https://www.nathandjames.com/James Harman appreciation: https://bluesjunctionproductions.com/an_appreciation_of_james_harmanPlaying with ZZ Top: https://billygibbons.com/2016/10/james-harman-mystery-man-zz-top-band/Videos:James Harman Tribute Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cf-z0fByTsMJames Harman interview from 2013: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkbDA4jpB_cGrit Soup with Rick Estrin and Nathan James:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7x1BajhVfcAlbums on YouTube:Thank You Baby: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_xc_lneR8cExtra Napkins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVwrq57PM-QStrictly Live in '85: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR1OEhF6Hr0&list=PLSzXohOP-AmcgBdbKmj-DNYiP6CfPTGUYBlack and White: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_0qUrM_XBwLiquor Parking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fL9y1bydpCIDidn't We Have Some Fun Sometime album intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1WhxC8Q1roPodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICAS--------------------------------Blue Moon Harmonicas: https://bluemoonharmonicas.comSupport the show

The soul legends known for their iconic hits, "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)," "You Are Everything," "You Make Me Feel Brand New," and more, earning them 5 Gold singles and 3 Gold albums, will bring audiences their first new single from the 21-track album "Yes, I Will," featuring Shania Twain, on February 14. "FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY GIRL," produced by Tom Cridland and Executive Produced by Deborah Cridland, will feature a who's who of legendary and noted artists who collaborated on the album alongside Twain: Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones, Gene Simmons of KISS, The Elton John Band (including Nigel Olsson and Davey Johnstone), Bill Champlin of Chicago, Billy F.

Ray Parker Jr., Steve Lukather and East performed on the track that was the last song recorded for the collection, and is the first new track in 17 years to be released by the legendary group. Says Twain, "I'm so happy that this song I wrote 'Yes, I Will' has found a home on The Stylistics album. That is just so exciting. It's a special song that came together on one special day at my home where I was hanging out with some friends and musicians. So I think it turned out great and I'm just really excited to share it with the whole world." Airrion Love from The Stylistics adds, "I fell in love with Shania Twain the first time I heard 'You're Still the One' - a great song that I still love. When we heard there might be a chance to do something with her we said, "Hell yeah!"" The Stylistics' original members Airrion Love and Herb Murrell, together with Jason Sharp who joined the group in 2011, recorded their vocals at Spice House Sound in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and at Wright Way Studios in Baltimore, Maryland. Tom Cridland arranged and recorded the background vocals in the Scottish Highlands and at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. The Elton John Band including Nigel Olsson and Davey Johnstone laid down the instrumental tracks at the Record Plant in Hollywood, California. "FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY GIRL" was the last album ever made at the legendary recording studio.

Made it to Friday! Time to grab a few last minute items at the grocery store & hunker down for the weekend. There is a winter storm watch in our area this weekend, so make sure you're prepared for some snow! We kicked things off this morning with an update on that Amber Alert from earlier this week. Also in the news this morning, President Trump announced plans to establish a task force to protect Christians, your new Wisconsin license plates should be showing up soon, and ZZ Top are coming to Arcadia this summer! In sports, we recapped last night's NFL Honors award show, talked about Ovi scoring #879, the Badgers game against Iowa tomorrow, and the Bucks playing tonight in Atlanta. Elsewhere in sports, the long-time owner of the Bears passed away, and Canadian officials are pleading with fans to refrain from booing American pee-wee hockey players. Today's show was definitely focused on Sunday's Super Bowl, with a look at why people watch the game, and what our top foods will be. Plus, who America is rooting for and who the drunkest fans are. We talked about what else is on TV this weekend and what's in theaters. And we had a story about a guy in a boat who had a medical emergency that left the boat racing out of control! Doc joined us to talk racing thanks to County Materials in Holmen, and during today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a teacher who kneed a student to the ground, a mother who is accused of lying about her daughter's terminal illness, a guy who punched a window of a plane during a flight and got restrained by other passengers, and a WI mom who passed out drunk at a Taco Bell with her kids in the car.

On today's episode of The Wow Factor, we're joined by creative entrepreneur, mentor, and author Noah Elias. At just nine years old, Noah made a life-changing decision to give his life to Christ, a choice that fueled his passion for both art and entrepreneurship. Long before the rise of social media and modern digital tools, Noah built his brand from the ground up, combining artistic talent with business acumen. His work has been featured by major brands like Disney and Costco, and he has collaborated with top artists such as Pink and ZZ Top. However, Noah's greatest mission extends beyond business—his true success is measured not in financial gains, but in his relentless commitment to spreading the Gospel and using his gifts to serve others. In this episode, Brad and Noah discuss the importance of staying hungry to learn new skills, embracing technology in business, and how passion fuels perseverance through tough times. They also explore why collaboration can accelerate success and why, at the end of the day, all business achievements pale in comparison to living out your true purpose in faith. “I had a self-awareness at a young age and later on, I realized in life it was a superhero power or a gift that God gave.” - Noah Elias “If your dreams aren't big enough, if your dreams don't scare you, they're most likely insulting to God. They gotta be flippin' huge, man.” - Noah Elias “It's not about building my empire. I want to build His.” - Noah Elias This Week on The Wow Factor: “The Pucker Factor” The journey from infancy to mastery in life and business Transforming earthly wealth into Kingdom impact From salvation to sacrifice to eternal rewards Noah's Master's Program and the pursuit of excellence Identifying and embracing your unique gifts Serving orphans diagnosed with AIDS overseas Living a life of stewardship and purpose The importance of going all in on your business and calling Noah Elias' Words of Wisdom: Use the gift given to you by God to help the world around you.

Hour 2 of Baskin and Phelps

Send us a textAlongside Boone, John Seeley (bass), Alex Wells (guitar), and Dale Myers (drums), these tight-knit guys stay connected to their homegrown roots having been around traditional instruments from a young age in piano, fiddle, and guitar instilling in them an appreciation of country-rock, bluegrass, blues, soul, and folk music. The band blends roots, blues, classic rock, soul, and, of course, Southern rock and has created an original sound reminiscent of some of the great blues-rock/Southern rock bands like the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top and Wet Willie. They also draw inspiration from some of the all-time blues/soul greats like Muddy Waters, Leadbelly and various artists from back in the classic heyday of Motown Records.OTIS is new musical blood for a new day with heavy, melodic blues-rock riffs, soaring guitar work, a pounding rhythm section, and raw, soulful vocals from Mr. Froggett.The band embraces Southern rock's hallowed past while charting their own future.  With some of the legendary Southern rock bands winding it down or no longer in existence, OTIS is a proud, new torchbearer of the Southern rock/blues-rock heritage.The band's debut album, 2014's Tough Times:  A Tribute to John Brim, is a raw, groove-oriented, blues drenched masterpiece that got rave reviews and was a blueprint for things to come for the band.The blistering Eyes of the Sun was released in 2018 on Cleopatra Records and more than lived up to the promise of the band's debut album.  Executive produced by Grammy-winning producer Paul Nelson, who earned his stripes by playing and performing with Johnny Winter and helping Johnny win a Grammy for his highly acclaimed album, Step Back, the album solidified the band's influences into a boiling stew of rootsy, kickass, take-no-prisoners, blues-rock goodness kicked up with a bit of soul and funk spiciness.  Good musical eats to say the least.And now comes Last Fool in the Line, which is a precursor to a full album that will be released sometime hopefully sooner than later (good things take time!)  To learn more about the band, connect at https://theotisband.com/ Visit the Self-Care Institute at https://www.selfcareinstitute.com/ Support the showVisit www.creativepeacemeal.com to leave a review, fan voicemail, and more!Insta @creative_peacemeal_podcastFB @creativepeacemealpodBonfire https://www.bonfire.com/store/creative-peacemeal/Redbubble CPPodcast.redbubble.comCreative Peacemeal READING list here Donate to AhHa!Broadway here!
