Early West coast Canadian punk rock, MONDO movies, and the legendary tale of LED ZEPPELIN and the 1970 MANPOP festival.
The music business shenanigans behind THE KINGSMEN, the early roots of rock n' roll movies, and a tribute to the first family of Australian rock n' roll... the YOUNG family.
In this episode we examine the contributions of songwriter OTIS BLACKWELL, we look at the time LED ZEPPELIN tried to shut down THE PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE, and we introduce the eccentric career of MICHAEL DES BARRES.
The strange career of the AMERICAN BEETLES, Edmonton rock legends WES DAKUS and BARRY ALLEN, and CKLW "The blackest white radio station in America" that actually broadcast from Canada.
This week we tell you about the grandfathers of garage rock THE FABULOUS WAILERS, talk about classic video show "Good Rockin' Tonight", and bring the weird history of teenage car crash songs.
This week on the show we investigate the pop cultural influence of the 1960s Batman TV show, and take you back to 1977 to stand in the crowd at a classic RAMONES show.
Some unlikely rock n' roll performances, the connections between Iggy Pop and Stiv Bators, and the freaky career of Sly Stone.
This week on the show we bring you the strange world of novelty "Cut-In" records, the R&B roots of 1960s Vancouver, the confrontational musical approach of John's Children, and a pile of far out records ads from the psychedelic 60s.
