πŸŽ™οΈ Show Topic: Rock & Roll Favorites – 50s, 60s & 70s with First-Time Guests

This Thursday, January 15th, 2026, we spin a classic mix of rock & roll from the 50s, 60s, and 70s, the songs and styles you ask for most.

From jangly pop to arena anthems, and country-rock to bluesy burners, it is a night built for sing-alongs and deep cuts.

We are also welcoming four first-time guests with stories from the stage, the studio, the camera pit, and the control room.

We will talk Nashville sessions and road work, flip through iconic images from the Beatles to Woodstock, and step inside the Record Plant to hear how hits were actually made. Great music, great memories, and fresh perspectives on the era that still moves us.

πŸ•°οΈ Tune in for guitars, photographs, consoles, and the legends who shaped the sound.

πŸ“… Mark your calendars: Thursday, January 15th, 2026 β€” turn it up and ride along.
