  • Live Album Review: UFO Strangers In The Night

    Like many bands in the '70s UFO found success with their iconic live album "Strangers In The Night". Recorded in Chicago & Louisville the album captures the energy of the band unlike their previous studio records. Michael Schenker, who left the band midway through the tour they recorded the album, solidifies his place among the guitar gods as one of the most influential players of all time. This is the essential UFO album. @TheRecidivists joins us once again for the discussion.

  • "Start With A Dream" Author Joey Cassata

    Growing up in the '80s into the early '90s the pace of life was much slower than it is now. Information had to be gathered much differently and the anticipation would build when an event came closer to happening, with each passing day. For us music fans, rock music was a huge part of our existence growing up. We walked or rode our bikes to record stores with our friends. Music was the bond we had, and there was no greater moment than the excitement of a new album being released. The book "Start With A Dream" captures the youthful experiences of discovering music, mischief, and friendship during this time like no other book. Author and drummer of the band ZO2 returns to The Hook Rocks to discuss and celebrate his autobiography once again. It is a must read for all rock music fans who grew up during this time. Please enjoy the episode!

  • Why The Album Cover Art Mattered

    Buying an album was an experience. You anticipated the next visit to the record store and couldn't wait to buy a new record. It was a physical experience. Holding the album, reading the liner notes, and above all studying the album art. The artwork or album cover connected you to the experience. "The Album" is a documentary about the evolution of the record industry told from the perspective from art directors and photographers. Director Kevin Hosman joins The Hook Rocks for an interesting discussion on how the art meant just as much as the music. Please enjoy the episode!
