Not only was it the birthday of O’Brien’s middle child, it was new music Tuesday. On this episode we discuss the new “final” Beatles song, new music from former Motley Crue guitarist Mick Mars, the latest new song from Guns N’ Roses, and we discuss a couple albums from the past that were released on this date (Nov 7). We climb the Wall of Tunes for a rock band that spent a lot of the 80s “motorin’”. The letter of the day is Y. #beatles #gnr #clapton #ozzy #nightranger #yngwie

On this episode we talk about Mike Portnoy rejoining Dream Theater, Dokken’s latest release, paranormal experiences of rockstars, UCR’s Top 30 Glam Metal albums, and more. But most importantly, we finally get around to discussing Rolling Stone magazine’s joke of a list of the 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. It really is painful to read. We climb the Wall of Tunes for a band named after a fairytale who Doug thinks released one of, if not THE best album of 1988. Plus, the letter of the day is X. Oh, and Doug reads “The Raven” by Poe. #dreamtheater #rollingstone #cinderella #papasmurf

On this episode....well! Have you ever seen the third Matrix movie? It's less confusing than this episode. What else can we say but....Snoop Dog and Michael McDonald? They aren't our guests, we just like the idea of them together. Yeah, we got nothing else! I mean we talk about a lot, but we don't really go anywhere. Doesn't that make you want to listen? We climb the Wall of Tunes for a bluesy band from Texas who lasted 3 full albums. The letter of the day is S. #snoop  #michaelmcdonaldmoment

On this episode we discuss using other songs within new songs as tribute vs cashing in, the death of Whitesnake original Bernie Marsden, the new album from Rick Springfield, Billboard's Top 50 Rock Singers (is a joke), and a brief "Where are they now?"
