Welcome to the celebration of my favorite albums and songs of 2025! Yes, this show is a year in the making and so big, it is going to need two shows to contain it! 2025 has been an 'interesting' year to say the least, but at least we have incredible artists and bands to provide awesome music for our escape, and give us hope. In this episode, music from FM, Perfect Plan, Bumblefoot, Volbeat, and Gotthard countdown albums #10 to #6, PLUS, an added bonus... brand new music from Massachusetts's own, All Sinners! This show is wicked awesome, hey! Also, please, if you can, help support a friend of mine who is in serious need right now. I guarantee anything donated will go to good use. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!

Welcome to the end of summer episode of The Radio Eclectic... and the countdown to Winter is on! Get ready for some amazing new music from Helloween, FM, Glenn Hughes, Gotthard, and Treat! Plus, a real classic from one of the best ever, Hanoi Rocks! But are we done there? No way! How about not one, not two, but three new songs from The Peppermint Kicks, and some quality time with 1/2 of the duo, my friend Sal Baglio! THAT sounds like a show well worth the price if you ask me! Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
