On this installment we break format cause for the first time, this is a show without reviews (NOOOO!) So with that being the case, as they say everyone's a critic and Producer Pat will flip the tables and become the reviewer! We take a listen to the 1996 latin-rock cult classic Vagabundo, a daring effort by former Menudo member and Ricky Martin cohort Robi Draco Rosa. We discuss the unique fusion of latin and alternative rock influences on this record and how Draco and Vagabundo is more than meets the ear.

On this installment of SRR the guys discuss an artist from where my father calls "God's Country" the state of Indiana, and it's hometown hero John Cougar Mellencamp. We talk Farm Aid, Kenny Aranoff's crisp drumming and rock n' roll growing older...I'm growing older too. So have a Roman Candle fight in the front yard and enjoy the 4th weekend with the All-American Boys!

On this installment of SRR, we hear why Mimi needs to be emancipated, why Damien Fahey of TRL has 600 hours of Beauty School to Mariah's 500 and if this record is Mariah's comeback or undoing.

On this installment of SRR us bloaks talk about everything Supergrass! You know Supergrass, the loveable and sometimes hard to understand lads from Oxford who you may have passed off as a one hit wonder. But mate, you have to mind the gap and hear these bangers and mash on the boys third album. Plus we witness the first appearance of what will sure to be a legendary character going forward...Johnny Cigarettes!!!

On this installment of SRR all 56k modem users with initiate The SRR Experience, where we discuss the complex and eccentric "Love Symbol" era of the mid-90's of this legendary artist formally known as, but now known as the name he was know for before. Login and experience the silent interviews, the mudslinging at Warner Bros. and we answer the question, could you be the most beautiful girl in the world?

On this installment we discuss The Smashing Pumpkins' fourth, left-turn of an album, Adore. Discover what "black vanilla" sounds like and how many guitar pedals Billy Corgan can run an instrument through (is it 6 or 7?) We also check in on D'arcy's distain for computers, James Iha drifting further from the band and the end of a certain era in rock. Trust me it's loads of fun. We even hear from Howard Stern, Regis AND Kathie Lee. If your friends could see you now...living it with SRR

On this installment of SRR we go back to 1967 and take a look at a true living legends work. We take a look at a Minnesota man with a Nashville band behind him and their influence on rock n' roll. This is the album that spawned a thousand rock, blues, and country sub-genres in it's wake. And of course we review the reviews from then and now.

On this installment of SRR Producer Pat talks the 1985 Duran Duran supergroup side project The Power Station. We go through how this project came about and how two "young posers" like Andy and John Taylor (Christgau's words, not mine) found slick rocker Robert Palmer and human beat machine Tony Thompson. Dust off your vintage "Rusty The European Tour" jackets and "Bang a Gong" to big 80's beat of The Power Station!

On this installment of SRR Jared is back, and he may or may not have found signs of a mythical creature in Maine.
