The History of Rock and Roll
The Fifties, Sixties and Seventies | An Era That Shaped Our World
Delighted to see you
I invite you to go back in time to the sixties and seventies, an era which shaped the world as we know it today. Let's re-discover the history of rock and roll through the eyes of a radio show host born nearly half a century later.
My shows are unique because not only do I play the music but I also like to talk about the history behind the songs as well.
Welcome 🎶
No radio DJ show for the next couple of weeks, as I’ll be in Italy from October 28th to Monday, November 11th, 2024.
My latest podcast episode, aired on Thursday, October 24th, 2024, focused on Rock Music guests Mick Lawless, Darren Dowler. and Jeremy Clyde . It was another fantastic show, and I’d like to extend a big thank you to our three guests who shared their rich musical experiences.
First up, Mick Lawless joined us to discuss his music moments, particularly his experiences with the Monkees and other artists. He also talked about his shop, the Nevermind Shop, which specializes in music memorabilia. It was a great interview that offered insights into his deep connections in the music industry.
Next, we had Darren Dowler, who gave an excellent interview about his live performances with various artists like Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Righteous Brothers, Chuck Negron, and Mitch Ryder. Darren also shared stories from his solo music career and his years in acting, providing a fascinating glimpse into his diverse talents.
Lastly, Jeremy Clyde offered a wonderful interview about his time with Chad Stuart in Chad and Jeremy, discussing their impact on the British music scene.
It was a pleasure hosting such talented guests who brought unique stories and perspectives on the rich history of rock music.
