Today one of my oldest friends stops by Mr Eric Peterson of Testament.

I fully believe that Eric is the most underrated Guitarist and Songwriter in the Thrash Metal scene. This man has been rocking in Testament for 35 years and also has a 2nd band called Dragonlord.

Testament's last release in 2020 Titans Of Creation is one of their heaviest in Years.

So much Metal History on this episode so tune in and enjoy.

Today on episode #580 my guest is Gary Numan a Legend and Pioneer in Electronic Music.

In the 70's I heard Gary Numan, Devo and Kraftwerk and it completely changed my life. Of course I was into Rock n Roll but Gary opened my eyes and ears to Art. This music helped me explore all types of musical styles and really shaped who I am now.

Gary has a new record coming out in May called Intruder and I cannot recommend it enough. Also go back and listen to some of his newer music from the last 20 years. Albums like Savage, and Splinter will blow your mind.

Thanks for tuning in and have a great week.

Today I sit down with the legend Mr Buzz Osborne for a deep dive into all things Melvins.

The Melvins have a brand new record out this week called

Working With God and I must say this record is smoking.

It was an honor to talk to Buzz and I think you guys are really going to love this episode. We talk Recording, Guitars, San Francisco, Art and all things Rock n Roll.

Dig in and keep the Candles Lit.

Today on a brand new episode of Let There Be Talk my guest is the fantastic Singer Songwriter from Texas Mr Koe Wetzel.

Over the last 9 years this man has built a huge following by non stop touring and recording. He completely built this machine on his own and now with a major record deal on Columbia Records he is about to go to another level.

I have been rocking his new record Sellout non stop since I got it.

Some smoking songs on this LP like Crying From The Bath Room, Sidechick, Drug Problem and Outcast. Radio needs to wake up and start playing these Hit Songs because America needs to hear them today.

Buy Koe's record and follow him on all social media.

Today on Let There Be Talk we dive into some Austin Texas Blues with The Ice Queen, Sue Foley.

Sue has been playing the blues for most of her life and has over 15 albums out since her debut with Young Girl Blues.

Sue was hand picked by the legendary Clifford Antone to come record her debut record in Austin and the rest is history.

Lots of Texas Blues talk on today's episode.

Do yourself a favor and check out Sue's music asap.

Today my guest is a new artist out of Chicago by the name of Neal Francis.

This mans debut record Changes came out in 2019 and it is absolutely incredible.

Not only is Neal a great singer, songwriter his B3 playing is through the roof.

I really think Neal is going to make some serious noise once he can get back out on the road and play live.

Do yourself a favor and check out his music and follow him on Instagram.

Today I sit down with an old friend Mr Phil Demmel guitarist and songwriter of Vio-lence and formally of Machine Head.

I wanted to have Phil on years ago but it just didn't happen for reason you will hear on this episode.

Phil comes from the old school Bay Area Thrash Metal Scene and has some amazing stories from those days.

We talk Slayer, Metallica, Machine Head, Vio-lence and the early San Francisco days.

Thanks for tuning in and remember to keep the Candles Lit.

Today I sit down for some more AC/DC history with the former Bass Player of AC/DC Mark Evans.

Mark and I go deep into Mark's history with AC/DC including his Audition, The Early Tours, Bon Scott and The Recording of Let There Be Rock.

Mark is now playing with the Australian legends Rose Tattoo and hopes to be back out on the road this year.

It was an honor to talk to Mark and finally get to hear some of these amazing stories.

Monday Jan,11th 2021 I woke up to some awful news that the great Jeff Scott, Comedy Store Piano player had passed away.

This is a massive loss to our Comedy Store Family and Friends.

I will never forget his great laugh and spirit behind the keyboards every night in the Original Room.

7 1/2 years ago he was a guest on my podcast and had some incredible stories that I feel should be shared again today.

RIP Jeff Scott I will never forget you.

Today on episode #572 the legend Dale Crover, Drummer and sometimes Bass Player of the Melvins stops by to talk all things Melvins.

There was a time when I was Living in San Francisco when every Speaker in the City was rocking The Melvins. The Melvins have been going at it since 1983 and have influenced so many bands over all these years.

Dale has a brand new solo record out this week called RAT A TAT TAT and also next month a new Melvins album is coming. Both of the new releases are smoking.

Sit back and enjoy this conversation with this fantastic musician.
