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 🎶
My latest podcast, which aired on Thursday, April 17th, 2025, focused on the mellow side of soft rock.
It’s always a joy to sit back and enjoy the timeless music from the ’60s and ’70s by various artists who defined the era. From soothing ballads to mellow rock anthems, this episode had it all for anyone who loves those laid-back, feel-good tunes.
