Pearl Jam: From "Ten" To Beyond

Not even 7 minutes into my first episode, i’m hooked. 
Heck yeah! Awesome content. Great delivery. 
🙌🏽

I love their open minded approach. They are humble and ignore any critics who say they are light on research.  That’s just someone who wishes they had the cool idea to do this podcast.  Rock on PHILADELPHIA!

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll

Motown Records changed the face of Rock and Roll forever. The impact of the label, the songwriters, the musicians like The Funk Brothers, and the Godfather of Motown, Berry Gordy. Berry’s business acumen and understanding of great music helped propel this label from obscurity to greatness in a short period of time pumping out hit record after hit record after hit record. We are lucky that the world was given The Motown Sound. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Led Zeppelin: Descended From The Gods

Rock and Roll Family Trees are an adventure once you climb up them. One of the thickest and richest family trees is The Yardbirds Family Tree. We automatically tend to consider the three guitar gods immediately, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page and their magnificent histories in bands like Cream, Led Zeppelin, Derek &amp; The Dominos among others. Our digging and research surprised us as to where The Yardbirds family tree led to, and excited us with new discoveries. We were also able to have a quick conversation with Yardbirds original drummer, Jim McCarty, who was able to confirm and deny these leaves of rock and roll diversity on the Yardbirds Family Tree.
