This week, Jason and Dee are back with another head-to-head rock 'n' roll showdown! We're diving deep into Tesla's breakthrough 1989 album The Great Radio Controversy — track by track. From the raw power of “Hang Tough” to the heartfelt anthem “Love Song,” we break down the stories, the riffs, and the band dynamics that made this album a staple of late '80s rock.
Along the way, we explore the history of Tesla — the roots of their blue-collar sound, the personalities behind the music, and the moments that turned this record into a platinum hit.
And don’t touch that dial — because at the end, we bring it all home by giving our final verdict: Which album reigns supreme — Tesla’s The Great Radio Controversy or The Black Crowes’ Shake Your Money Maker?
Plug in, turn it up, and join us for a full-throttle rock breakdown, Surely-style! 🤘
