Speaker 3 (06:52):
And I was always I'm here with my illustrious.
Speaker 7 (06:54):
Co host, Bell Wag. Hey, Wag, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (07:05):
How you doing this evening? Brother?
Speaker 9 (07:07):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (07:07):
I'm feeling much better, man. I don't think I'm gonna
be coughing too much.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
Maybe a little bit here and there, but yeah, I'm
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Yeah, good, good, right on, right on cool.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Yeah, man, So, so what are we doing this week? Way?
Speaker 9 (07:24):
Uh, We're going to do a little album that came
out on March twenty third of nineteen eighty seven, as
produced by Mike Stone and Keith Olsen.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We're talking.
Speaker 9 (07:34):
We're gonna do the White Snake nineteen eighty seven blockbuster
that sold eight times platinum the last time it was certified.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Oh yeah, that was a huge album.
Speaker 9 (07:45):
Personally, it was the only album that I've ever owned
it was a White Snake. I mean, obviously I knew
Sliding In a few years earlier. I was aware of
it because of the song. But this is the only
White Snick album I've ever had, you know, I've ever
met too.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
Yes, I was aware of Sliding In, but yeah, and
like love Ain't no Stranger. But I never really got
into Whitesnake until this album.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah. I think a lot of US Americans say that
quite frankly.
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:16):
But and it was it was, you know, on Geffen
Records in the United States of America, it was on
EMI and the United Kingdom. It was recorded in studios
in Vancouver, Toronto, Nassau, Halloween Hollow, Hollywood, Los Angeles, Hollywood,
and Los Angeles. It went to number two on the
(08:38):
Billboard two hundred number two eight million sold in number two.
But the thing is it was right in the middle
of there were so many huge blockbusters back then, and
the albums that blocked it from going number one back
in nineteen eighty seven were the BC Boys Licensed to Ill, Yeah,
(08:59):
youtubea Tree, Whitney Houston her debut Whitney and of course
Michael Michael Jackson Bad and Uh that that line the
lineup that actually recorded the album was quite different than
the than the touring lineup that I saw, Yeah Down
(09:21):
the Green with Motley Crue, Poison, Uh and Jeff book Out.
I'll get to Batman bit. But yeah, the the musicians
that recorded this amazing album generally speaking, amazing. You know,
there's names David Coverdale obviously, vocals, John Sykes rest in Peace.
(09:43):
I mean we just recently lost him and you're gonna
be talking about him in a second. That was horrific
and way too soon. Neil Murray, bass, Annsley, Dunbar drums,
Dan Airy.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Right.
Speaker 9 (10:01):
I won't deny I fucked that a couple of times.
When I'm drunk, I'd probably say, oh no, I didn't
say that. But anyways, eight times platinum, a couple of
real fast here, and it was a monster because it
was a huge monster, because Still the Night went to
number seventy nine on the Billboard two hundred when it
was you know, that was the beginning, the tsunami was
(10:23):
just starting.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
And then Is This Love went to number two on
the Billboard two hundred, and.
Speaker 9 (10:28):
Then of course the blockbuster, the song We're Gonna Hear
and Everybody's Gonna Hear until Eternity Here I Go Again,
was number one on the Billboard two hundred on October
tenth of nineteen eighty seven. And and you know, like
I said, the touring lineup that I saw on October
(10:49):
tenth of nineteen eighty seven at day on the Green
Motley Crue, White Snake, Poisoned Jet Boy. Anyways, the touring
lineup was Vivian Campbell guitar, Adrian Rudy Sarzo based Tommy
Aldrid's drums, and yeah, back to who recorded the album,
and yeah, John Sykes, we never got to see a
(11:11):
live concert of the actual lineup that recorded the album,
which is a travesty if you ask.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
Me, man, Yeah it is, yeah, it is, man, John Sykes,
just all of a sudden out of nowhere passed away.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
I guess the guy was like a recluse man.
Speaker 8 (11:26):
He didn't didn't tell anybody what was going on, and
actually now was listening Eddie Trunk and apparently he actually
passed away like the last week of December. So he
actually passed away in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Yeah, I saw it.
Speaker 7 (11:44):
Yeah, and they didn't. They didn't announce it until just
last week. So it was a shocker. Man.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
He got a lot of love from the rock world
because I don't know if you know, but as you
you know, many might know, maybe some don't know. But
he started off in Tiger's a Pang Tang, So he
was in in new album Man, the New, the New British,
the Wave of heavy Metal.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
So British met Brother.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
Yeah, yeah, he was involved in that and Tiger's a
Pang Tang knows anything knows that right on.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
Yeah, And then I guess he went on to like, uh,
Thin Lizzy, you.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Know, played Lizzy record. If I'm being real and I'm not,
and I don't like I'm not.
Speaker 9 (12:30):
I mean, I respect them and I like a lot
of their songs, but my favorite Thin Lizzy record is
that last one.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
With that motherfucker.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
I saw a live concert with him playing with Thin
Lizzie and it was just phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Man.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
I got to watch that again because that was a great,
great concert video.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Man.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Way he added a metal element to it, Yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Yes he did. Man, he just shredded. Man. What a
guitar player. But I mean, you know, I don't claim
to be any huge uge fan. I'm just a casual fan.
I know of him and his career.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
And then obviously he went on to White Snake and
I believe the first album he played on was a
slide it in album, and then he recorded this album
and him and David had a fallen out and that
was that.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
And then he went on to do his own band,
Blue Murder.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, with.
Speaker 9 (13:26):
A couple of songs your Boy and he trump makes
it sound like it's a physical graffiti, but.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
You yeah, it's it's a good album.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
It's a good album. It's a good Yeah.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
And he played with Carmine Piece and Tony Franklin on
fretless bass, so that.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Was a.
Speaker 8 (13:49):
Yes exactly yeah, and you know, and then he just
did some solo stuff after that and then just kind
of vanished. You know, he was supposed to do the
the band that Eddie Trunk actually put together, Winery Dogs.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
He was supposed to be the guitar player and singer
for that.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Yeah, well he was because that that that band sucks.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Not really, it was Mike Portney and freaking sucks to
badass rhythm section.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Man, that was musicianship. You're right songs.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
Now, I'm I'm not a fan either, I'm not gonna lie,
not just being really.
Speaker 10 (14:36):
But John Sykes was awesome.
Speaker 7 (14:37):
Man.
Speaker 8 (14:38):
I don't know if you ever saw the video you loved,
You ever see live video footage of him playing Still
in the Night and and all that where he's singing
it too.

a ride through pop culture history. I started in a
few episodes ago.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
Oh yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (15:26):

number one song was by a band called or maybe
they're around who knows Club Nouveau.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Uh the song was Lean on Me.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
Just your response is timeless. And there's the last few episodes.
It was Dallas, right, it was Dallas again. No, by
this juncture of.
Speaker 9 (17:22):
Sumter, Dallas, Larry Hagman had too many Buggy Collins and Manhattan, so.

few episodes ago, I get going and after.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
A few but I I said that La Lakers won
the Super Bowl, And what what I meant?
Speaker 7 (18:06):
That must have been awesome?
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Yeah, right, what I meant?
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Obviously, anybody with a brain knows it was the Los
Angeles Raiders. They won the Super Bowl in January. I
think it was January twenty eighth, nineteen eighty four, so
the nineteen eighty three season, so it was a Los
Angeles Raiders.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
But anyways, so.
Speaker 7 (18:24):
Matthew Johnson made a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
You know what, that's interesting you say that, Yes he did?
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Yeah, wowie bit.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Anyways, the Washington Redskins not to rebeat.
Speaker 9 (18:36):
Myself super Bowl champs of the nineteen eighty seventh season,
so tactically it was January of eighty eight, but we're
gonna focus on nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
So and unfortunately the Los.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Angeles Lakers daream a doing, Jamar Magic, Johnson, Michael Michael Cooper,
James Worthy and just Byron Scott and that amazing team
they beat my bought my Boston Celtics unfortunately, Larry Bird,
Kevin McHale, and it was one of the biggest and
(19:08):
uh Nielsen ratings NBA finals ever.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
It was fucking huge. But anyways, yeah, my brother.
Speaker 9 (19:14):
Boss, uh, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parrish, Danny Hs,
Dennis Johnson. Uh and uh so unfortunately we didn't. We
did not went back to back. We won the year
before in eighty six. So yeah, so the Lakers beat
us that year, and why they did they beat us
because Kevin McHale had a broken foot.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Bet anyway, So all right, so uh and then end.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Closing here in this little synopsis team the Minnesota Twins
won the World Series and the Wayne Gretzky led awesome
and I don't like him anything, but I respect this fucker.
The Edmonton Oilers won the Stanley Cup Championship.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
Bet wow yeah, cool yeah cool? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:00):
All right, man, all right, so I guess we'll get
into this White Snake eighty seven album.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
Huh yeah, go for it, brother talking to me, all
right man?
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Track number one, Crying in the Rain Man, Oh my god, dude,
what a killer, soulful rock song.
Speaker 10 (20:19):
Oh my god.
Speaker 7 (20:19):
David sings his ass off in this song. And it's
a great drumming song too.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Man. And Tommy Aldridge when he started playing this song live.
Obviously Ansley Dunbar played on the studio version, but when
White Snake started playing with Tommy Aldridge, which Tommy Aldridge
plays with White Snake to this day.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
All right, yeah, yeah, he always do his drum solo
during this song.
Speaker 10 (20:47):
It's badass.
Speaker 7 (20:48):
So I actually got to I didn't get to see
White Snake back in the day. But I did get to.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
See White Snake a few years ago, and.
Speaker 8 (20:56):
Tommy Aldridge just did a badass drum solo during this song.
Speaker 10 (21:00):
And unfortunately David's voice wasn't wasn't what.
Speaker 9 (21:04):
It used to be.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
But you know, it was still cool to finally see him. Man.
But yeah, crying in the rain great song man, what
do you think.
Speaker 10 (21:13):
Of Crying in the rainway?
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Yeah, I was fortunate enough, like I said in my
initial synopsis of my little notes and whatever, but yeah,
I did see I did see them in their goddamn feat.
I mean, we're talking they're touring for this record, and
they were yeah yeah, and it was you know, and
I'm gonna send you the ticket stuff.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Maybe you can put the ticket stuff right now. But
October tenth, nineteen eighty seven, at the Day on the
Green and yeah, it was cool and new but uh yeah,
and like I.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
Said, it was a total different, uh touring lineup and everything.
But yeah, they were fucking This album was so fucking
huge and it was I mean, if you were Crown,
I'm sure most of the people watching this ship were around,
but maybe the young people weren't around. They were huge,
and they were just all of a sudden, you know,
(22:09):
they were print but Americans, no American to who the fuck.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
White Snake was? You know, maybe we had a little
bit of a touch with the album previously, but yeah,
so uh yeah, so.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Crying in the Rain, right, yeah, Crying in the Rain.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Yeah, I mean, what a fucking opener. Man, it's awesome.
Speaker 9 (22:32):
That uh that explosive riffage John Sykes, I mean, what
a talent.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
But yeah, rest in peace.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
But yeah, that just it's just I mean for this
kind of uh music, And back then, hair metal didn't exist.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Hair Metal didn't you know, it is what it is
and it is that, but it didn't exist. But this
was just a kick ass heavy song.
Speaker 9 (22:59):
That that it just get dumped and it sounded really kid,
really killer on a really awesome blog Pong or Alpine
or whatever that.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
Yeah, did you know why it sounded killer?
Speaker 8 (23:12):
Why is that because it's like one of the first
albums that they recorded digitally. Oh wow co Yeah, yeah,
it was like in that time period where they were
where they were just going switching over from analog to
digital and yeah, and it just it did it sounded great?
Speaker 7 (23:32):
Man.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Wow, Oh I don't know, yeah, as Johnny Carson once said.
Speaker 9 (23:41):
I did not know that.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
Yeah, I watched a lot of documentaries. Man, all right,
so do I actually right on?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
That's cool?
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Hell yeah? Man. So you so you love crying in
the rain? Huh? Yeah so much?
Speaker 9 (23:57):
So uh And not to keep repeating my you know,
John Sykes, I mean, what a fucking the sound, the
bigness of this.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh oh my god, that sound is like holy shit.
Speaker 7 (24:09):
Oh yeah, crying ring five and.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Five toughs up.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
Hell yeah, man, track number two Bad Boys. You know, hey, man,
Bad Boys, you know, kind of kind of a cheesy title,
you know, but but man, it's a cool, fast rocker. Man.
I dig it.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
Man, It's got some killer guitar playing.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
It's it's it's it's good when they play it live. Man,
you know, I dig it. Man. What do you think
of Bad Boys? Way?
Speaker 9 (24:38):
I think, uh, that's a you know, in twenty twenty five,
Bad Boys as cheesy as fuck, But I think it
had a little bit more legitimate. See back in nineteen
eighty seven, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
So I think it was a little kinds we're a
little bit more innocent than now.
Speaker 9 (24:56):
Now, we'res just so you know, nothing shocks as nothing
is both you know, but but understood, valid point, bad boys.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
That beginning riff is just scalar, dude, I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's just like so fucking sick and ship.
Speaker 9 (25:13):
Just the tone his tone is so And I'm not
a guitar I mean I can. I played the guitar
because of Derek Rooney. He's gonna be on our episode. Dude,
in a while, He's gonna do the Animal Asylum record
with us, as you and you have spoken about the guy, Okay, cool,
the guy my best friend. The guy my best friend
who actually took me to the Asylum tour. So we're
(25:35):
both gonna have fun stories about that. But yeah, yeah, yeah,
fucking a man, you know, I mean this, this little
Bill wym Junior loves this song now in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Five, and the other day we were we were in
the van driving down the.
Speaker 9 (25:50):
Highway and I had this song on because we were
you know, I was studying to you know, read, you know,
just just hear the helm for the first time, and
I admittedly I haven't heard the record forever, but he's
all dad, I'm all right, He's all.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Man, this song is me I'm all, why man, why son?
Why Bill A Junior.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
He's all, well, that line where he says, I know
you you know, I'm a black sheep of the family.
Speaker 12 (26:17):
It's like Bill j a pattern on his head. Come on,
young boy, they ain't about you boys anyway. And his mom,
Geene Elizabeth god rest his all.
Speaker 9 (26:28):
I mean, she was a huge White Snake fan, and
I guess he remembers her playing it in her van
and anyway, you know, I'm trying to ignore that. But
when you got a son and you have children, you know,
you know, you have to, you know, listen to your children.
So yeah, Bill A Junior loves the song. Bill A
Junior gives.

Speaker 10 (27:24):
He lived down in Boca Ratan at the time, and
I was able to drive down there.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
And that's when I saw the premiere of Still of
the Night on MTV and.
Speaker 10 (27:35):
I was just like, oh my god.
Speaker 7 (27:38):
And you know, and at that time, you know, when
I first saw the video, I thought that was the
band you know everybody, Yeah, I didn't know that just
got brilliant guitar.
Speaker 10 (27:49):
John Sykes was on the record play and all that stuff.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
But the.
Speaker 9 (27:56):
Most not most American teenagers and very very very early twenties, did.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (28:03):
No, But man, it's just an amazing classic.
Speaker 10 (28:07):
I mean, you were talking about that guitar.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Sound, Holy cow, dude, that opening chord, that opening bar chord,
and then that.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Street Oh yeah, man, that guitar squak.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
Oh man, that pinch harmonic he does at the beginning
is just so awesome. And it's just a perfect song
man in Dave's vocals, Holy shit, man, my god. And
then what a killer guitar solo. How it slows down and.
Speaker 7 (28:39):
Then it has that build up with the kind of
violin bow and everything. Oh man, It's just just incredible, man.
And what more can you say? Man?
Speaker 8 (28:49):
The video with Tawny Kataine, Oh my god, you know,
geez man, Oh yeah, doubt many. Man, they're dropping like flies.
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Man. It sucks. Yeah, it sucks man. But anyway, Wang,
what's your thoughts of still in the Night?
Speaker 9 (29:11):
Before I get to steal the night? I got some
basic situation events that happened worldwide. I focus on the
pop culture albums and everything and thing, but here's some things.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I got a couple of batch. I'll do the first
batch first.
Speaker 9 (29:26):
But on February fourth of nineteen eighty seven, Liberachi dies
at age sixty age sixty seven.
Speaker 7 (29:34):
Actually, I used to sit there and watch him as
a kid with my grandmother.

Oh that's something.
Speaker 10 (29:39):
Yeah, yeah, he had to watch that show.
Speaker 7 (29:41):
Remember when he had his own TV.

second time he did this.

It explodes at a Salt Lake City computer store and
the owner was injured, but he lived. So that was
the second time. That motherfucker. He's still alive in prison anyways.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
And then on.
Speaker 3 (30:21):

Andy Warhol guys age fifty eight.
Speaker 7 (30:32):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (30:34):

And then on March fourth, nineteen eighty seven, Ronald Reagan,
the greatest president of my lifetime, addresses the American people
in a television address about the oh my with the
hit shit, the hit the ship, hit the fan, on
the Iran contra affair.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
So that was big.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And then on March yeah, back.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
Up, is that my speech?
Speaker 8 (31:01):
Is that the speech where he talked about what if
we were to be invaded by an alien racer?
Speaker 9 (31:07):
Absolutely need some outside universal trep not occasionally. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
He mentioned that in one of his greatest speeches.
Speaker 9 (31:14):
Man, I don't think no, no, this was no no,
This was basically fundamentally about this Iran contra affair. Yeah,
I asked you, Yeah, yeah, yeah, because maybe you're talking
about SDI but not more alien to the universe.
Speaker 7 (31:31):
He made a bunch of great speeches.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
Absolutely, we're going to get to him, and a couple
of damn my little list here. But anyways, on March
twenty ninth, nineteen eighty seven, wrestle Mania three, and I
went and I tried to find my test up summhere.
Wrestle Mania.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
I didn't go, but I went to a a in

thousand were in attendance, and it was Hull Cogan versus

Speaker 9 (32:29):
That was a huge thing American culture in March twenty ninth,

Tracy Ullman show.
Speaker 7 (32:43):
Holy Cow, that that suckers still going?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
It's is that amazing?

Speaker 9 (32:51):
That's Laura's longest running sitcom, Yeah, me and Lord, but
ever since she died, I've never watched Yeah, no, exactly, okay,
classic shit, and then a couple more before we get on,
and until I got a second batch later, but and
then on June eleventh, and nineteen eighty seven, the Great
(33:14):
Margaret Thatcher is re elected for a third term in
the awesome United Kingdom, the country that we came from. Basically,
we came from everywhere, but that's basically where it all started.
Speaker 7 (33:27):
And then boy Eddie from Iron Maid didn't like her man.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Yeah, yeah, a lot of yeah, well I did so anyways.
Speaker 9 (33:37):
And then, speaking of great speeches, one of the most
epic iconic ever took place on June twelfth, nineteen eighty seven,
in Berlin, West Germany, not Germany, West Germany. Literally in
the backdrop of the Berlin Wall. The Great the fuck bad,
(34:00):
asked Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 7 (34:02):
He tear down this yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Yeah, man, basically challenged Mikil Garbachev. Mister, yeah, tear down
this wall.
Speaker 7 (34:17):
Fucking epic, and they did, David Hasselhoff sing he what.
Speaker 8 (34:28):
David, Yes, David Hasselhoff sung while they were tearing down
the wall.
Speaker 9 (34:34):
You don't remember that, okay, I thought you were referring
when Reagan's did this.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
No, no, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that that happened.
Speaker 10 (34:47):
Yeah, unfortunately that.
Speaker 9 (34:48):
Happened too, Yeah right, right, exactly, yeah, not exactly a
problem for David Hasseloff or the United States of America
for him.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
But anyways, in closing two or.
Speaker 9 (35:01):
June twenty fourth of nineteen eighty seven, the Great and
this guy's out of our age group.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
Even though we're old, we're not.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
No.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
I was born in nineteen forty and forty five, but
people younger than us.
Speaker 9 (35:13):
The Great Jackie Gleason dies eight seventy one, remember.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Whens I acknowledge my brother. And then in closing this first.
Speaker 7 (35:26):
Part of the team justice who is at the first damp.
Speaker 9 (35:30):
And closing on August this part I have a second
part that I'll do later. But on August sixteenth of
nineteen eighty seven, Northwest Airlines Flight two fifty five crashes
on takeoff from Detroit Metro killing all but one person
of the one hundred and fifty six people on board,
(35:52):
and who survived was a little four year old girl
named Cecilia si Chan but she was the lone survivor.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Amazing making. So yeah, so there's part one of my
synopsis of world events of eighty seven.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Cool.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Cool, yeah, So okay, the question.
Speaker 9 (36:15):
That I had and we're talking about still the night
this started it all, this started off. This is I mean,
I was aware of Sliding In. I believe that came
out in eighty four. I never owned it, but I
believe it came out in eighty four. That's when I
was aware of White Snake. I had no crew about
(36:36):
anything before when they were a blues prep.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Because I'm not really in the movie. But yeah, so
it started it all.
Speaker 9 (36:45):
I mean I remember seeing the video first on head
Beggar's Ball and wow, I mean it started.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Just them guys being huge as fucking man.
Speaker 9 (36:58):
And I mean it overplayed, sure, but still I give
the shit five and five chapter six, bah bahup.
Speaker 7 (37:07):
Hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 8 (37:09):
On to number four and talking about being overplayed the hit,
the major hit, here.
Speaker 7 (37:16):
I go again. Oh my god, dude, I am.
Speaker 10 (37:22):
So totally burnt.
Speaker 7 (37:23):
On this song.
Speaker 8 (37:25):
But but it's because it was such a major hit
that was played to death. I mean, you gotta give
it to him, man, he knocked it out of this
out of the park. And this song was recorded years
later on an earlier White Snake album, but it was
much more bluesy bassed, you know, it just wasn't polished.
(37:47):
So they re recorded it, man, And they had to
record two versions of this song. They had to play
the regular album version which Adrian van der Berg actually
did play.
Speaker 10 (37:57):
The guitar solo on this in the studio.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
And then they played then they played a lighter rock
version of this song for all the Housewives.
Speaker 9 (38:07):
Man, yeah, yeah, right right they added the keyboards, right, yeah,
well the keyboards were on all the versions, but I think.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
There was a remix that they even pumped in more.
Speaker 8 (38:18):
Yes, yes, it was more keyboard driven and less guitar
dur that was the That was the.
Speaker 7 (38:24):
Light rock version, the real light rock version. But yeah, man,
the video is iconic with.
Speaker 8 (38:31):
Tawny dancing on what the Jaguars and and driving in
the car with David that I mean, who can forget
all that? Yeah they were Jaguars. Yeah yeah, yeah, but
but yeah, man, total burnt out Here.
Speaker 7 (38:48):
I Go Again.
Speaker 8 (38:49):
But it's a freaking bona fide classic man, and and god,
this song probably made him a multi millionaire over and over.
Speaker 7 (38:57):
So what do you think of Here I Go Again?
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Way?
Speaker 9 (39:00):
I really can't add more than what you said. You
pretty much described it pretty much. You know, the song
obviously is overplayed, and you know, and here comes to
Cyben in downtown.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
So it was just the second wave gang at it again.
Or the.
Speaker 9 (39:15):
First of all the Damian Beans, an invasion gang is
out of town that they have this big thing back
in Vietnam, this this family, So that's not the and
the singing Winging is Oakland, So no, that's probably just
more gang warfare, but other gangs that.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Weren't unaware of. But okay, I got good obsteation of
my brother.
Speaker 9 (39:37):
But yeah, and you know the thing about this I
was today, I was at work and I was like,
you know, listening to this album and I was trying
to think what I thought of it back and then
it's like, well, now I'm sick of it and I
don't really like it.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
And blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 9 (39:50):
And you know, for the life of me, I don't
remember what I thought back then, but I'm gonna give
it two of five, Chap six blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 8 (39:58):
Well, all right, we're we're half we're the halfway mark,
and we're onto another video song, give Me All Your Love.
Speaker 9 (40:08):
Now.
Speaker 8 (40:08):
This video was different because it didn't have Tony and
it was one of the one of the only videos
that didn't have her, and this was more of a
live performance video and it's.
Speaker 7 (40:19):
It's another cool, you know, kind of upbeat, fast rocker.
I always dug it, man, I had.
Speaker 8 (40:27):
A catchy little chorus man, some great guitar playing, So yeah, yeah,
I did give me all your love?
Speaker 7 (40:33):
Wang, what do you think of give me all your love?
Speaker 9 (40:36):
Yeah, man, Mark John Sykes riffage, I know, And yeah,
it's a pretty cool song.
Speaker 7 (40:41):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
About that ourselves collectively.
Speaker 9 (40:52):
I mean, even the songs that are not five out
of five four to five chopsticks, just John Syke's playing
is makes it interesting. So you can, even if you
don't necessarily like the song, you could ten point you
know who's guitar playing, whether it's a solo.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Or some riff or whatever. It's like, oh man, that's
so fucking cool.
Speaker 7 (41:10):
You know what I'm saying, But exactly well said.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
I'm gonna get a song three to five chapsticks, Bye bye.
Speaker 7 (41:16):
Bay Hell yeah.
Speaker 8 (41:19):
Number six, the amazing beautiful ballad is this love. Oh
my god, this song it's just it's it's beautifully sung
by David and the guitar solo is just it's just amazing. Man,
Oh my god, you could just tell how much feel
(41:41):
how much feel John Psyke's had in his playing with
this solo.
Speaker 7 (41:46):
I mean it just it just weeps, man, when he's
playing this guitar solo.
Speaker 10 (41:51):
It's amazing.
Speaker 8 (41:52):
I love this song. I still love this song. I
never get burnt out on it. I'm just a sucker
for a good ballad and I mean this is about
as good as you can get on a ballad. Man,
it's amazing. Man, what do you think that is? This
love wing?
Speaker 3 (42:11):
I think it sucks one of five chopsis.
Speaker 7 (42:15):
Oh oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
Okay, said not to repeat myself.
Speaker 9 (42:20):
It went all the way to number motherfucking two, crazy back.
Speaker 7 (42:24):
Damn right, because it's an awesome song.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
Man, Hey right, that's cool. I'm I'm not going to
call you names because you don't like it.
Speaker 7 (42:34):
Oh come on, man, you don't want to call me names.
Called me names, and you know, accuse me of stuff.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
Doctor, I'm not drunk.
Speaker 9 (42:43):
I've only had a few guiness. Then A pirate is
far from work today. But no, man, I'm gonnaccuse you
of Vance and Stanley.
Speaker 7 (42:51):
Hell yeah, man.
Speaker 8 (42:52):
Number seven Children of the Night, yet another fast rocker.
Speaker 10 (42:59):
I dig this one.
Speaker 7 (43:00):
You know it gets the crowd going when they do
it live.
Speaker 8 (43:03):
Obviously great guitar playing. Yeah, there's really not much I
can say about this song other than you know, I
dig it, plang. What do you think of Children of
the Night.
Speaker 9 (43:15):
Well, before I get the Children of Night, I'm gonna
give you number the second part of my world situation.
So on August thirty first of nineteen eighty seven, Michael
Jackson put out the follow up to Thriller, and it
was It was fucking huge.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
The album was called was called Bad and the album produced.
Speaker 9 (43:39):
Five not four or not three, not two, not one,
five number one hits, a record which has not been
broken to this debt.
Speaker 3 (43:49):
It like a couple of songs.
Speaker 7 (43:54):
It was no Thriller, man, it was no, no, no,
but there was a couple.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
It was plain Yeah, I like Sweet Criminal. And there's
another song I like. I forgot the name of it.
Speaker 9 (44:06):
But and then on October twenty third, nineteen eighty seven,
the United States Senate rejects Ronald Reagan's nomination of Robert Fork.
Look it up, people Robert for And it was a
huge controversy back then to the Supreme Court. So that
was a big thing in America, excuse me, American politics
(44:28):
back then. And then on November twelfth of nineteen eighty seven,
the first Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Kentucky Fried Chicken opens in.
Speaker 9 (44:36):
China, the First Fine ninety oh seven and Beijing Kentucky
three Chicken.
Speaker 3 (44:43):
Anyways, you know, Wow, yeah, crazy shit.
Speaker 9 (44:47):
And then on November twenty ninth of nineteen eighty seven,
the Year of Our Lord, Koreer Korean Airline Airflight eight
fifty eight is blown up over the adam Man Seed,
killing one hundred people. North Korean agents are responsible for
the bombing, and then a couple more. And then on
(45:10):
December twentieth of nineteen ninety seven, more misery, more apocalyptic done.
History's worst peacetime sea disaster occurs the Envy Dang Paz
it was a ferry since after colliding with an oil
tank with the oil tanker Vector one in the Tablist
(45:32):
Strait in the Philippines, killing an estimating four thousand people.
Speaker 7 (45:39):
Wow.
Speaker 9 (45:40):
And then finally in closing here on December twenty third,
nineteen ninety seven, Nikki sixth of the mott of the
band mon Flu overdoses on heroin and is declared clinically
dead after two minutes before a paramedic revived Nicky Sick.
(46:01):
The two syringes full Gala can't.
Speaker 3 (46:06):
Start my heart?
Speaker 7 (46:08):
All right, if you can believe that exactly, you know,
go aheadline that if you can believe anything, Dicky Sick says.
Speaker 9 (46:19):
Yeah, Carolyn's all that poor ship. Yeah, but anyways that
the folklore says that happened, you know, did it?
Speaker 7 (46:29):
Who knows?
Speaker 3 (46:30):
It was enough that it made it into game.
Speaker 9 (46:33):
So back to your question of Children of the Night, correct, yes, sir, Yeah,
so slamming great vocals, and I want to emphasize great
vocals by mister David Coverdell throughout this album, even the song,
even the songs.
Speaker 3 (46:50):
That he's you know you loved.
Speaker 9 (46:52):
But I don't necessarily like you got to give it
to the man. He was what in his late thirties
at the time, probably he was at least prime man.
Speaker 10 (47:02):
He was in his prime.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
Yeah, yeah, so yeah, so yeah, and again, not to
keep repeating myself, but just the riffage.
Speaker 9 (47:10):
The John Psyke's amazing guitar playing makes the shitty songs
interesting and this song is not shitty, and it was
interesting and I give it three out of five chapsticks
blah blah blah.
Speaker 7 (47:23):
Awesome man all right, number eight straight for the Heart. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (47:29):
See, this is where the album starts to go down.
For me, this is just kind of a stock song filler.
I like it, but I don't care too much about it.
Speaker 8 (47:39):
I mean, it's okay, it really does nothing for me. Wang,
what do you think of Straight for the Heart?
Speaker 3 (47:48):
Yeah that's a pretty fair analysis.
Speaker 7 (47:52):
Yeah, yeah, it don't suck.
Speaker 3 (47:54):
But here's people even know I'm irish imworks common anyways.
Speaker 9 (48:01):
Yeah, straight Straight for the Heart not the best song
on the album, but again, killers like solo Yeah because
of that, Yeah, because of that alone, and he's playing
I'm gonna give it two of five chopsters about that.
Speaker 7 (48:16):
Hell yeah, let's wrap this up with number nine.
Speaker 10 (48:20):
Don't Turn Away.
Speaker 7 (48:22):
Oh man, I don't know.
Speaker 8 (48:24):
I think this was trying to be maybe a little
progressive or something. I really don't care for this one.
It kind of drags and you know, kind of bores me.
So yeah, Don't Turn Away. Not really a fan man.
By this time, I'm ready to just hit stop?
Speaker 7 (48:46):
Plang? What do you think of Don't Turn Away?
Speaker 3 (48:48):
Hit Stop? Or play Crying in the Rain, Bad Boys?
Still the Night over here?
Speaker 7 (48:53):
Yeah? Yeah, I want to go back to the beginning. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (48:55):
Yeah, it's like this, dude, I'll leave have some slide
it in instead.
Speaker 7 (48:59):
Of this, you know.
Speaker 9 (49:01):
Yeah, right, And I don't like that song, but yeah
me also my brother, but yeah, don't turn away simplistic
writing here. I wrote sort of a wimpy ending, very
very wimpy, not a cool song to end the album.
Speaker 3 (49:17):
And I'm gonna give it one out of five Russ six.
Speaker 10 (49:21):
Hell yeah, I totally agree, man.
Speaker 7 (49:24):
But but overall, man, you can't deny this album. Man,
it was so freaking huge, man, you know, so freaking huge.
I mean, yeah, yeah, it.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Was amazing and to this day it holds up.
Speaker 9 (49:39):
But generally air quote generally speaking, there are songs on
here that kick ass. Yeah, there are some clunkers on it,
but generally speaking, it's a fucking kick ass album, man,
fucking egg.
Speaker 8 (49:51):
And it was a huge tour. From what I remember,
everybody was going to that. I didn't go to it,
but everybody is going to it talking about it.
Speaker 7 (50:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (50:01):
I can't remember who they came around with. I want
to say it was like great fight or something. I
don't know, in Florida. Yeah, but I don't know. I
can't remember, but I just remember I remember everybody saying
that it was such a great concert and everybody was
going to it. But oh yeah, all the kids were
going to that stick.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
And I was always I'm here with my illustrious.
Speaker 7 (06:54):
Co host, Bell Wag. Hey, Wag, what's going on?
Speaker 6 (06:59):
Man?
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Hey my brother? How you doing?
Speaker 9 (07:03):
Man?
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Everything's good man?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
How you doing this evening? Brother?
Speaker 9 (07:07):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (07:07):
I'm feeling much better, man. I don't think I'm gonna
be coughing too much.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
Maybe a little bit here and there, but yeah, I'm
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Yeah, good, good, right on, right on cool.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Yeah, man, So, so what are we doing this week? Way?
Speaker 9 (07:24):
Uh, We're going to do a little album that came
out on March twenty third of nineteen eighty seven, as
produced by Mike Stone and Keith Olsen.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We're talking.
Speaker 9 (07:34):
We're gonna do the White Snake nineteen eighty seven blockbuster
that sold eight times platinum the last time it was certified.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Oh yeah, that was a huge album.
Speaker 9 (07:45):
Personally, it was the only album that I've ever owned
it was a White Snake. I mean, obviously I knew
Sliding In a few years earlier. I was aware of
it because of the song. But this is the only
White Snick album I've ever had, you know, I've ever
met too.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
Yes, I was aware of Sliding In, but yeah, and
like love Ain't no Stranger. But I never really got
into Whitesnake until this album.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah. I think a lot of US Americans say that
quite frankly.
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:16):
But and it was it was, you know, on Geffen
Records in the United States of America, it was on
EMI and the United Kingdom. It was recorded in studios
in Vancouver, Toronto, Nassau, Halloween Hollow, Hollywood, Los Angeles, Hollywood,
and Los Angeles. It went to number two on the
(08:38):
Billboard two hundred number two eight million sold in number two.
But the thing is it was right in the middle
of there were so many huge blockbusters back then, and
the albums that blocked it from going number one back
in nineteen eighty seven were the BC Boys Licensed to Ill, Yeah,
(08:59):
youtubea Tree, Whitney Houston her debut Whitney and of course
Michael Michael Jackson Bad and Uh that that line the
lineup that actually recorded the album was quite different than
the than the touring lineup that I saw, Yeah Down
(09:21):
the Green with Motley Crue, Poison, Uh and Jeff book Out.
I'll get to Batman bit. But yeah, the the musicians
that recorded this amazing album generally speaking, amazing. You know,
there's names David Coverdale obviously, vocals, John Sykes rest in Peace.
(09:43):
I mean we just recently lost him and you're gonna
be talking about him in a second. That was horrific
and way too soon. Neil Murray, bass, Annsley, Dunbar drums,
Dan Airy.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Right.
Speaker 9 (10:01):
I won't deny I fucked that a couple of times.
When I'm drunk, I'd probably say, oh no, I didn't
say that. But anyways, eight times platinum, a couple of
real fast here, and it was a monster because it
was a huge monster, because Still the Night went to
number seventy nine on the Billboard two hundred when it
was you know, that was the beginning, the tsunami was
(10:23):
just starting.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
And then Is This Love went to number two on
the Billboard two hundred, and.
Speaker 9 (10:28):
Then of course the blockbuster, the song We're Gonna Hear
and Everybody's Gonna Hear until Eternity Here I Go Again,
was number one on the Billboard two hundred on October
tenth of nineteen eighty seven. And and you know, like
I said, the touring lineup that I saw on October
(10:49):
tenth of nineteen eighty seven at day on the Green
Motley Crue, White Snake, Poisoned Jet Boy. Anyways, the touring
lineup was Vivian Campbell guitar, Adrian Rudy Sarzo based Tommy
Aldrid's drums, and yeah, back to who recorded the album,
and yeah, John Sykes, we never got to see a
(11:11):
live concert of the actual lineup that recorded the album,
which is a travesty if you ask.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
Me, man, Yeah it is, yeah, it is, man, John Sykes,
just all of a sudden out of nowhere passed away.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
I guess the guy was like a recluse man.
Speaker 8 (11:26):
He didn't didn't tell anybody what was going on, and
actually now was listening Eddie Trunk and apparently he actually
passed away like the last week of December. So he
actually passed away in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Yeah, I saw it.
Speaker 7 (11:44):
Yeah, and they didn't. They didn't announce it until just
last week. So it was a shocker. Man.
Speaker 8 (11:53):
He got a lot of love from the rock world
because I don't know if you know, but as you
you know, many might know, maybe some don't know. But
he started off in Tiger's a Pang Tang, So he
was in in new album Man, the New, the New British,
the Wave of heavy Metal.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
So British met Brother.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
Yeah, yeah, he was involved in that and Tiger's a
Pang Tang knows anything knows that right on.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
Yeah, And then I guess he went on to like, uh,
Thin Lizzy, you.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Know, played Lizzy record. If I'm being real and I'm not,
and I don't like I'm not.
Speaker 9 (12:30):
I mean, I respect them and I like a lot
of their songs, but my favorite Thin Lizzy record is
that last one.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
With that motherfucker.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
I saw a live concert with him playing with Thin
Lizzie and it was just phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Man.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
I got to watch that again because that was a great,
great concert video.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Man.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Way he added a metal element to it, Yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Yes he did. Man, he just shredded. Man. What a
guitar player. But I mean, you know, I don't claim
to be any huge uge fan. I'm just a casual fan.
I know of him and his career.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
And then obviously he went on to White Snake and
I believe the first album he played on was a
slide it in album, and then he recorded this album
and him and David had a fallen out and that
was that.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
And then he went on to do his own band,
Blue Murder.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, with.
Speaker 9 (13:26):
A couple of songs your Boy and he trump makes
it sound like it's a physical graffiti, but.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
You yeah, it's it's a good album.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
It's a good album. It's a good Yeah.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
And he played with Carmine Piece and Tony Franklin on
fretless bass, so that.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Was a.
Speaker 8 (13:49):
Yes exactly yeah, and you know, and then he just
did some solo stuff after that and then just kind
of vanished. You know, he was supposed to do the
the band that Eddie Trunk actually put together, Winery Dogs.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
He was supposed to be the guitar player and singer
for that.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Yeah, well he was because that that that band sucks.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Not really, it was Mike Portney and freaking sucks to
badass rhythm section.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Man, that was musicianship. You're right songs.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
Now, I'm I'm not a fan either, I'm not gonna lie,
not just being really.
Speaker 10 (14:36):
But John Sykes was awesome.
Speaker 7 (14:37):
Man.
Speaker 8 (14:38):
I don't know if you ever saw the video you loved,
You ever see live video footage of him playing Still
in the Night and and all that where he's singing
it too.
Speaker 7 (14:50):
Oh my god, that you could sing just as good
as David Coverdale. That ship hang out phenomenal, man.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
I have seen really cool. Yeah video back back to palm.
Yeah yeah, man, fucking it dude, suck suck, sucks up.
Speaker 7 (15:08):

Speaker 7 (15:11):
So uh so, Wang maybe got anything else? So before
you before we're going to get into this.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Yeah, man, you know, I always like to go through
a ride through pop culture history. I started in a
few episodes ago.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
Oh yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Yeah, it's kind of fun and whatnot. But anyways, uh
so back on.
Speaker 9 (15:30):
March twenty third of nineteen, we said we go back
the way back machine. So the number one unless you cheated?
Do you know what the number one movie was in
the United States of America in March twenty third, nineteen eighty.

Speaker 9 (16:22):

the band, but I sure as remember the song. The
number one song was by a band called or maybe
they're around who knows Club Nouveau.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Uh the song was Lean on Me.
Speaker 9 (16:39):
I'm sure you remember that or yeah. And then I'm
gonna ask you this because I have fun with these
TV shows. What what in your opinion? What do you

number one TV show in the United States of America.
Speaker 7 (16:59):
In nineteen eighty seven. Yeah, god, dudu if I know
I wasn't watching that last.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Just your response is timeless. And there's the last few episodes.
It was Dallas, right, it was Dallas again. No, by
this juncture of.
Speaker 9 (17:22):
Sumter, Dallas, Larry Hagman had too many Buggy Collins and Manhattan, so.
Speaker 10 (17:28):
Like Falcon Crest now or something.
Speaker 3 (17:30):

Yeah, you just don't shoot him up like I do.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
Look, yes, oh cool and oh in the last episode
or not the last episode, but an episode a few
few episodes ago, I get going and after.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
A few but I I said that La Lakers won
the Super Bowl, And what what I meant?
Speaker 7 (18:06):
That must have been awesome?
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Yeah, right, what I meant?
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Obviously, anybody with a brain knows it was the Los
Angeles Raiders. They won the Super Bowl in January. I
think it was January twenty eighth, nineteen eighty four, so
the nineteen eighty three season, so it was a Los
Angeles Raiders.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
But anyways, so.
Speaker 7 (18:24):
Matthew Johnson made a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
You know what, that's interesting you say that, Yes he did?
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Yeah, wowie bit.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Anyways, the Washington Redskins not to rebeat.
Speaker 9 (18:36):
Myself super Bowl champs of the nineteen eighty seventh season,
so tactically it was January of eighty eight, but we're
gonna focus on nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
So and unfortunately the Los.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Angeles Lakers daream a doing, Jamar Magic, Johnson, Michael Michael Cooper,
James Worthy and just Byron Scott and that amazing team
they beat my bought my Boston Celtics unfortunately, Larry Bird,
Kevin McHale, and it was one of the biggest and
(19:08):
uh Nielsen ratings NBA finals ever.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
It was fucking huge. But anyways, yeah, my brother.
Speaker 9 (19:14):
Boss, uh, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parrish, Danny Hs,
Dennis Johnson. Uh and uh so unfortunately we didn't. We
did not went back to back. We won the year
before in eighty six. So yeah, so the Lakers beat
us that year, and why they did they beat us
because Kevin McHale had a broken foot.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Bet anyway, So all right, so uh and then end.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Closing here in this little synopsis team the Minnesota Twins
won the World Series and the Wayne Gretzky led awesome
and I don't like him anything, but I respect this fucker.
The Edmonton Oilers won the Stanley Cup Championship.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
Bet wow yeah, cool yeah cool? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:00):
All right, man, all right, so I guess we'll get
into this White Snake eighty seven album.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
Huh yeah, go for it, brother talking to me, all
right man?
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Track number one, Crying in the Rain Man, Oh my god, dude,
what a killer, soulful rock song.
Speaker 10 (20:19):
Oh my god.
Speaker 7 (20:19):
David sings his ass off in this song. And it's
a great drumming song too.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Man. And Tommy Aldridge when he started playing this song live.
Obviously Ansley Dunbar played on the studio version, but when
White Snake started playing with Tommy Aldridge, which Tommy Aldridge
plays with White Snake to this day.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
All right, yeah, yeah, he always do his drum solo
during this song.
Speaker 10 (20:47):
It's badass.
Speaker 7 (20:48):
So I actually got to I didn't get to see
White Snake back in the day. But I did get to.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
See White Snake a few years ago, and.
Speaker 8 (20:56):
Tommy Aldridge just did a badass drum solo during this song.
Speaker 10 (21:00):
And unfortunately David's voice wasn't wasn't what.
Speaker 9 (21:04):
It used to be.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
But you know, it was still cool to finally see him. Man.
But yeah, crying in the rain great song man, what
do you think.
Speaker 10 (21:13):
Of Crying in the rainway?
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Yeah, I was fortunate enough, like I said in my
initial synopsis of my little notes and whatever, but yeah,
I did see I did see them in their goddamn feat.
I mean, we're talking they're touring for this record, and
they were yeah yeah, and it was you know, and
I'm gonna send you the ticket stuff.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Maybe you can put the ticket stuff right now. But
October tenth, nineteen eighty seven, at the Day on the
Green and yeah, it was cool and new but uh yeah,
and like I.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
Said, it was a total different, uh touring lineup and everything.
But yeah, they were fucking This album was so fucking
huge and it was I mean, if you were Crown,
I'm sure most of the people watching this ship were around,
but maybe the young people weren't around. They were huge,
and they were just all of a sudden, you know,
(22:09):
they were print but Americans, no American to who the fuck.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
White Snake was? You know, maybe we had a little
bit of a touch with the album previously, but yeah,
so uh yeah, so.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Crying in the Rain, right, yeah, Crying in the Rain.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Yeah, I mean, what a fucking opener. Man, it's awesome.
Speaker 9 (22:32):
That uh that explosive riffage John Sykes, I mean, what
a talent.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
But yeah, rest in peace.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
But yeah, that just it's just I mean for this
kind of uh music, And back then, hair metal didn't exist.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Hair Metal didn't you know, it is what it is
and it is that, but it didn't exist. But this
was just a kick ass heavy song.
Speaker 9 (22:59):
That that it just get dumped and it sounded really kid,
really killer on a really awesome blog Pong or Alpine
or whatever that.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
Yeah, did you know why it sounded killer?
Speaker 8 (23:12):
Why is that because it's like one of the first
albums that they recorded digitally. Oh wow co Yeah, yeah,
it was like in that time period where they were
where they were just going switching over from analog to
digital and yeah, and it just it did it sounded great?
Speaker 7 (23:32):
Man.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Wow, Oh I don't know, yeah, as Johnny Carson once said.
Speaker 9 (23:41):
I did not know that.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
Yeah, I watched a lot of documentaries. Man, all right,
so do I actually right on?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
That's cool?
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Hell yeah? Man. So you so you love crying in
the rain? Huh? Yeah so much?
Speaker 9 (23:57):
So uh And not to keep repeating my you know,
John Sykes, I mean, what a fucking the sound, the
bigness of this.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh oh my god, that sound is like holy shit.
Speaker 7 (24:09):
Oh yeah, crying ring five and.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Five toughs up.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
Hell yeah, man, track number two Bad Boys. You know, hey, man,
Bad Boys, you know, kind of kind of a cheesy title,
you know, but but man, it's a cool, fast rocker. Man.
I dig it.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
Man, It's got some killer guitar playing.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
It's it's it's it's good when they play it live. Man,
you know, I dig it. Man. What do you think
of Bad Boys? Way?
Speaker 9 (24:38):
I think, uh, that's a you know, in twenty twenty five,
Bad Boys as cheesy as fuck, But I think it
had a little bit more legitimate. See back in nineteen
eighty seven, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
So I think it was a little kinds we're a
little bit more innocent than now.
Speaker 9 (24:56):
Now, we'res just so you know, nothing shocks as nothing
is both you know, but but understood, valid point, bad boys.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
That beginning riff is just scalar, dude, I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's just like so fucking sick and ship.
Speaker 9 (25:13):
Just the tone his tone is so And I'm not
a guitar I mean I can. I played the guitar
because of Derek Rooney. He's gonna be on our episode. Dude,
in a while, He's gonna do the Animal Asylum record
with us, as you and you have spoken about the guy, Okay, cool,
the guy my best friend. The guy my best friend
who actually took me to the Asylum tour. So we're
(25:35):
both gonna have fun stories about that. But yeah, yeah, yeah,
fucking a man, you know, I mean this, this little
Bill wym Junior loves this song now in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Five, and the other day we were we were in
the van driving down the.
Speaker 9 (25:50):
Highway and I had this song on because we were
you know, I was studying to you know, read, you know,
just just hear the helm for the first time, and
I admittedly I haven't heard the record forever, but he's
all dad, I'm all right, He's all.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Man, this song is me I'm all, why man, why son?
Why Bill A Junior.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
He's all, well, that line where he says, I know

Speaker 12 (26:17):
It's like Bill j a pattern on his head. Come on,
young boy, they ain't about you boys anyway. And his mom,
Geene Elizabeth god rest his all.
Speaker 9 (26:28):
I mean, she was a huge White Snake fan, and
I guess he remembers her playing it in her van
and anyway, you know, I'm trying to ignore that. But
when you got a son and you have children, you know,
you know, you have to, you know, listen to your children.
So yeah, Bill A Junior loves the song. Bill A
Junior gives.
Speaker 3 (26:47):

Holy cow. I remember I remember going on.
Speaker 8 (27:19):
I had just got in my car, man, and I
was able to drive down to my dad's house.
Speaker 10 (27:24):
He lived down in Boca Ratan at the time, and
I was able to drive down there.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
And that's when I saw the premiere of Still of
the Night on MTV and.
Speaker 10 (27:35):
I was just like, oh my god.
Speaker 7 (27:38):
And you know, and at that time, you know, when
I first saw the video, I thought that was the
band you know everybody, Yeah, I didn't know that just
got brilliant guitar.
Speaker 10 (27:49):
John Sykes was on the record play and all that stuff.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
But the.
Speaker 9 (27:56):
Most not most American teenagers and very very very early twenties, did.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (28:03):
No, But man, it's just an amazing classic.
Speaker 10 (28:07):
I mean, you were talking about that guitar.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Sound, Holy cow, dude, that opening chord, that opening bar chord,
and then that.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Street Oh yeah, man, that guitar squak.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
Oh man, that pinch harmonic he does at the beginning
is just so awesome. And it's just a perfect song
man in Dave's vocals, Holy shit, man, my god. And
then what a killer guitar solo. How it slows down and.
Speaker 7 (28:39):
Then it has that build up with the kind of
violin bow and everything. Oh man, It's just just incredible, man.
And what more can you say? Man?
Speaker 8 (28:49):
The video with Tawny Kataine, Oh my god, you know,
geez man, Oh yeah, doubt many. Man, they're dropping like flies.
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Man. It sucks. Yeah, it sucks man. But anyway, Wang,
what's your thoughts of still in the Night?
Speaker 9 (29:11):
Before I get to steal the night? I got some
basic situation events that happened worldwide. I focus on the
pop culture albums and everything and thing, but here's some things.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I got a couple of batch. I'll do the first
batch first.
Speaker 9 (29:26):
But on February fourth of nineteen eighty seven, Liberachi dies
at age sixty age sixty seven.
Speaker 7 (29:34):
Actually, I used to sit there and watch him as
a kid with my grandmother.

second time he did this.

the owner was injured, but he lived. So that was
the second time. That motherfucker. He's still alive in prison anyways.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
And then on.
Speaker 3 (30:21):

Speaker 7 (30:32):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (30:34):

And then on March fourth, nineteen eighty seven, Ronald Reagan,
the greatest president of my lifetime, addresses the American people
in a television address about the oh my with the
hit shit, the hit the ship, hit the fan, on
the Iran contra affair.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
So that was big.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And then on March yeah, back.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
Up, is that my speech?
Speaker 8 (31:01):
Is that the speech where he talked about what if
we were to be invaded by an alien racer?
Speaker 9 (31:07):
Absolutely need some outside universal trep not occasionally. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
He mentioned that in one of his greatest speeches.
Speaker 9 (31:14):
Man, I don't think no, no, this was no no,
This was basically fundamentally about this Iran contra affair. Yeah,
I asked you, Yeah, yeah, yeah, because maybe you're talking
about SDI but not more alien to the universe.
Speaker 7 (31:31):
He made a bunch of great speeches.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
Absolutely, we're going to get to him, and a couple
of damn my little list here. But anyways, on March
twenty ninth, nineteen eighty seven, wrestle Mania three, and I
went and I tried to find my test up summhere.
Wrestle Mania.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
I didn't go, but I went to a a in

thousand were in attendance, and it was Hull Cogan versus

Tracy Ullman show.
Speaker 7 (32:43):
Holy Cow, that that suckers still going?
Speaker 3 (32:47):

That's Laura's longest running sitcom, Yeah, me and Lord, but
ever since she died, I've never watched Yeah, no, exactly, okay,
classic shit, and then a couple more before we get on,
and until I got a second batch later, but and
then on June eleventh, and nineteen eighty seven, the Great
(33:14):
Margaret Thatcher is re elected for a third term in
the awesome United Kingdom, the country that we came from. Basically,
we came from everywhere, but that's basically where it all started.
Speaker 7 (33:27):
And then boy Eddie from Iron Maid didn't like her man.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Yeah, yeah, a lot of yeah, well I did so anyways.
Speaker 9 (33:37):
And then, speaking of great speeches, one of the most
epic iconic ever took place on June twelfth, nineteen eighty seven,
in Berlin, West Germany, not Germany, West Germany. Literally in
the backdrop of the Berlin Wall. The Great the fuck bad,
(34:00):
asked Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 7 (34:02):
He tear down this yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Yeah, man, basically challenged Mikil Garbachev. Mister, yeah, tear down
this wall.
Speaker 7 (34:17):
Fucking epic, and they did, David Hasselhoff sing he what.
Speaker 8 (34:28):
David, Yes, David Hasselhoff sung while they were tearing down
the wall.
Speaker 9 (34:34):
You don't remember that, okay, I thought you were referring
when Reagan's did this.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
No, no, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that that happened.
Speaker 10 (34:47):
Yeah, unfortunately that.
Speaker 9 (34:48):
Happened too, Yeah right, right, exactly, yeah, not exactly a
problem for David Hasseloff or the United States of America
for him.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
But anyways, in closing two or.
Speaker 9 (35:01):
June twenty fourth of nineteen eighty seven, the Great and
this guy's out of our age group.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
Even though we're old, we're not.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
No.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
I was born in nineteen forty and forty five, but
people younger than us.
Speaker 9 (35:13):
The Great Jackie Gleason dies eight seventy one, remember.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Whens I acknowledge my brother. And then in closing this first.
Speaker 7 (35:26):
Part of the team justice who is at the first damp.
Speaker 9 (35:30):
And closing on August this part I have a second
part that I'll do later. But on August sixteenth of
nineteen eighty seven, Northwest Airlines Flight two fifty five crashes
on takeoff from Detroit Metro killing all but one person
of the one hundred and fifty six people on board,
(35:52):
and who survived was a little four year old girl
named Cecilia si Chan but she was the lone survivor.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Amazing making. So yeah, so there's part one of my
synopsis of world events of eighty seven.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Cool.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Cool, yeah, So okay, the question.
Speaker 9 (36:15):
That I had and we're talking about still the night
this started it all, this started off. This is I mean,
I was aware of Sliding In. I believe that came
out in eighty four. I never owned it, but I
believe it came out in eighty four. That's when I
was aware of White Snake. I had no crew about
(36:36):
anything before when they were a blues prep.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Because I'm not really in the movie. But yeah, so
it started it all.
Speaker 9 (36:45):
I mean I remember seeing the video first on head
Beggar's Ball and wow, I mean it started.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Just them guys being huge as fucking man.
Speaker 9 (36:58):
And I mean it overplayed, sure, but still I give
the shit five and five chapter six, bah bahup.
Speaker 7 (37:07):
Hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 8 (37:09):
On to number four and talking about being overplayed the hit,
the major hit, here.
Speaker 7 (37:16):
I go again. Oh my god, dude, I am.
Speaker 10 (37:22):
So totally burnt.
Speaker 7 (37:23):
On this song.
Speaker 8 (37:25):
But but it's because it was such a major hit
that was played to death. I mean, you gotta give
it to him, man, he knocked it out of this
out of the park. And this song was recorded years
later on an earlier White Snake album, but it was
much more bluesy bassed, you know, it just wasn't polished.
(37:47):
So they re recorded it, man, And they had to
record two versions of this song. They had to play
the regular album version which Adrian van der Berg actually
did play.
Speaker 10 (37:57):
The guitar solo on this in the studio.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
And then they played then they played a lighter rock
version of this song for all the Housewives.
Speaker 9 (38:07):
Man, yeah, yeah, right right they added the keyboards, right, yeah,
well the keyboards were on all the versions, but I think.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
There was a remix that they even pumped in more.
Speaker 8 (38:18):
Yes, yes, it was more keyboard driven and less guitar
dur that was the That was the.
Speaker 7 (38:24):
Light rock version, the real light rock version. But yeah, man,
the video is iconic with.
Speaker 8 (38:31):
Tawny dancing on what the Jaguars and and driving in
the car with David that I mean, who can forget
all that? Yeah they were Jaguars. Yeah yeah, yeah, but
but yeah, man, total burnt out Here.
Speaker 7 (38:48):
I Go Again.
Speaker 8 (38:49):
But it's a freaking bona fide classic man, and and god,
this song probably made him a multi millionaire over and over.
Speaker 7 (38:57):
So what do you think of Here I Go Again?
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Way?
Speaker 9 (39:00):
I really can't add more than what you said. You
pretty much described it pretty much. You know, the song
obviously is overplayed, and you know, and here comes to
Cyben in downtown.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
So it was just the second wave gang at it again.
Or the.
Speaker 9 (39:15):
First of all the Damian Beans, an invasion gang is
out of town that they have this big thing back
in Vietnam, this this family, So that's not the and
the singing Winging is Oakland, So no, that's probably just
more gang warfare, but other gangs that.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Weren't unaware of. But okay, I got good obsteation of
my brother.
Speaker 9 (39:37):
But yeah, and you know the thing about this I
was today, I was at work and I was like,
you know, listening to this album and I was trying
to think what I thought of it back and then
it's like, well, now I'm sick of it and I
don't really like it.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
And blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 9 (39:50):
And you know, for the life of me, I don't
remember what I thought back then, but I'm gonna give
it two of five, Chap six blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 8 (39:58):
Well, all right, we're we're half we're the halfway mark,
and we're onto another video song, give Me All Your Love.
Speaker 9 (40:08):
Now.
Speaker 8 (40:08):
This video was different because it didn't have Tony and
it was one of the one of the only videos
that didn't have her, and this was more of a
live performance video and it's.
Speaker 7 (40:19):
It's another cool, you know, kind of upbeat, fast rocker.
I always dug it, man, I had.
Speaker 8 (40:27):
A catchy little chorus man, some great guitar playing, So yeah, yeah,
I did give me all your love?
Speaker 7 (40:33):
Wang, what do you think of give me all your love?
Speaker 9 (40:36):
Yeah, man, Mark John Sykes riffage, I know, And yeah,
it's a pretty cool song.
Speaker 7 (40:41):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
About that ourselves collectively.
Speaker 9 (40:52):
I mean, even the songs that are not five out
of five four to five chopsticks, just John Syke's playing
is makes it interesting. So you can, even if you
don't necessarily like the song, you could ten point you
know who's guitar playing, whether it's a solo.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Or some riff or whatever. It's like, oh man, that's
so fucking cool.
Speaker 7 (41:10):
You know what I'm saying, But exactly well said.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
I'm gonna get a song three to five chapsticks, Bye bye.
Speaker 7 (41:16):
Bay Hell yeah.
Speaker 8 (41:19):
Number six, the amazing beautiful ballad is this love. Oh
my god, this song it's just it's it's beautifully sung
by David and the guitar solo is just it's just amazing. Man,
Oh my god, you could just tell how much feel
(41:41):
how much feel John Psyke's had in his playing with
this solo.
Speaker 7 (41:46):
I mean it just it just weeps, man, when he's
playing this guitar solo.
Speaker 10 (41:51):
It's amazing.
Speaker 8 (41:52):
I love this song. I still love this song. I
never get burnt out on it. I'm just a sucker
for a good ballad and I mean this is about
as good as you can get on a ballad. Man,
it's amazing. Man, what do you think that is? This
love wing?
Speaker 3 (42:11):
I think it sucks one of five chopsis.
Speaker 7 (42:15):
Oh oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
Okay, said not to repeat myself.
Speaker 9 (42:20):
It went all the way to number motherfucking two, crazy back.
Speaker 7 (42:24):
Damn right, because it's an awesome song.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
Man, Hey right, that's cool. I'm I'm not going to
call you names because you don't like it.
Speaker 7 (42:34):
Oh come on, man, you don't want to call me names.
Called me names, and you know, accuse me of stuff.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
Doctor, I'm not drunk.
Speaker 9 (42:43):
I've only had a few guiness. Then A pirate is
far from work today. But no, man, I'm gonnaccuse you
of Vance and Stanley.
Speaker 7 (42:51):
Hell yeah, man.
Speaker 8 (42:52):
Number seven Children of the Night, yet another fast rocker.
Speaker 10 (42:59):
I dig this one.
Speaker 7 (43:00):
You know it gets the crowd going when they do
it live.
Speaker 8 (43:03):
Obviously great guitar playing. Yeah, there's really not much I
can say about this song other than you know, I
dig it, plang. What do you think of Children of
the Night.
Speaker 9 (43:15):
Well, before I get the Children of Night, I'm gonna
give you number the second part of my world situation.
So on August thirty first of nineteen eighty seven, Michael
Jackson put out the follow up to Thriller, and it
was It was fucking huge.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
The album was called was called Bad and the album produced.
Speaker 9 (43:39):
Five not four or not three, not two, not one,
five number one hits, a record which has not been
broken to this debt.
Speaker 3 (43:49):
It like a couple of songs.
Speaker 7 (43:54):
It was no Thriller, man, it was no, no, no,
but there was a couple.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
It was plain Yeah, I like Sweet Criminal. And there's
another song I like. I forgot the name of it.
Speaker 9 (44:06):
But and then on October twenty third, nineteen eighty seven,
the United States Senate rejects Ronald Reagan's nomination of Robert Fork.
Look it up, people Robert for And it was a
huge controversy back then to the Supreme Court. So that
was a big thing in America, excuse me, American politics
(44:28):
back then. And then on November twelfth of nineteen eighty seven,
the first Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Kentucky Fried Chicken opens in.
Speaker 9 (44:36):
China, the First Fine ninety oh seven and Beijing Kentucky
three Chicken.
Speaker 3 (44:43):
Anyways, you know, Wow, yeah, crazy shit.
Speaker 9 (44:47):
And then on November twenty ninth of nineteen eighty seven,
the Year of Our Lord, Koreer Korean Airline Airflight eight
fifty eight is blown up over the adam Man Seed,
killing one hundred people. North Korean agents are responsible for
the bombing, and then a couple more. And then on
(45:10):
December twentieth of nineteen ninety seven, more misery, more apocalyptic done.
History's worst peacetime sea disaster occurs the Envy Dang Paz
it was a ferry since after colliding with an oil
tank with the oil tanker Vector one in the Tablist
(45:32):
Strait in the Philippines, killing an estimating four thousand people.
Speaker 7 (45:39):
Wow.
Speaker 9 (45:40):
And then finally in closing here on December twenty third,
nineteen ninety seven, Nikki sixth of the mott of the
band mon Flu overdoses on heroin and is declared clinically
dead after two minutes before a paramedic revived Nicky Sick.
(46:01):
The two syringes full Gala can't.
Speaker 3 (46:06):
Start my heart?
Speaker 7 (46:08):
All right, if you can believe that exactly, you know,
go aheadline that if you can believe anything, Dicky Sick says.
Speaker 9 (46:19):
Yeah, Carolyn's all that poor ship. Yeah, but anyways that
the folklore says that happened, you know, did it?
Speaker 7 (46:29):
Who knows?
Speaker 3 (46:30):
It was enough that it made it into game.
Speaker 9 (46:33):
So back to your question of Children of the Night, correct, yes, sir, Yeah,
so slamming great vocals, and I want to emphasize great
vocals by mister David Coverdell throughout this album, even the song,
even the songs.
Speaker 3 (46:50):
That he's you know you loved.
Speaker 9 (46:52):
But I don't necessarily like you got to give it
to the man. He was what in his late thirties
at the time, probably he was at least prime man.
Speaker 10 (47:02):
He was in his prime.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
Yeah, yeah, so yeah, so yeah, and again, not to
keep repeating myself, but just the riffage.
Speaker 9 (47:10):
The John Psyke's amazing guitar playing makes the shitty songs
interesting and this song is not shitty, and it was
interesting and I give it three out of five chapsticks
blah blah blah.
Speaker 7 (47:23):
Awesome man all right, number eight straight for the Heart. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (47:29):
See, this is where the album starts to go down.
For me, this is just kind of a stock song filler.
I like it, but I don't care too much about it.
Speaker 8 (47:39):
I mean, it's okay, it really does nothing for me. Wang,
what do you think of Straight for the Heart?
Speaker 3 (47:48):
Yeah that's a pretty fair analysis.
Speaker 7 (47:52):
Yeah, yeah, it don't suck.
Speaker 3 (47:54):
But here's people even know I'm irish imworks common anyways.
Speaker 9 (48:01):
Yeah, straight Straight for the Heart not the best song
on the album, but again, killers like solo Yeah because
of that, Yeah, because of that alone, and he's playing
I'm gonna give it two of five chopsters about that.
Speaker 7 (48:16):
Hell yeah, let's wrap this up with number nine.
Speaker 10 (48:20):
Don't Turn Away.
Speaker 7 (48:22):
Oh man, I don't know.
Speaker 8 (48:24):
I think this was trying to be maybe a little
progressive or something. I really don't care for this one.
It kind of drags and you know, kind of bores me.
So yeah, Don't Turn Away. Not really a fan man.
By this time, I'm ready to just hit stop?
Speaker 7 (48:46):
Plang? What do you think of Don't Turn Away?
Speaker 3 (48:48):
Hit Stop? Or play Crying in the Rain, Bad Boys?
Still the Night over here?
Speaker 7 (48:53):
Yeah? Yeah, I want to go back to the beginning. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (48:55):
Yeah, it's like this, dude, I'll leave have some slide
it in instead.
Speaker 7 (48:59):
Of this, you know.
Speaker 9 (49:01):
Yeah, right, And I don't like that song, but yeah
me also my brother, but yeah, don't turn away simplistic
writing here. I wrote sort of a wimpy ending, very
very wimpy, not a cool song to end the album.
Speaker 3 (49:17):
And I'm gonna give it one out of five Russ six.
Speaker 10 (49:21):
Hell yeah, I totally agree, man.
Speaker 7 (49:24):
But but overall, man, you can't deny this album. Man,
it was so freaking huge, man, you know, so freaking huge.
I mean, yeah, yeah, it.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Was amazing and to this day it holds up.
Speaker 9 (49:39):
But generally air quote generally speaking, there are songs on
here that kick ass. Yeah, there are some clunkers on it,
but generally speaking, it's a fucking kick ass album, man,
fucking egg.
Speaker 8 (49:51):
And it was a huge tour. From what I remember,
everybody was going to that. I didn't go to it,
but everybody is going to it talking about it.
Speaker 7 (50:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (50:01):
I can't remember who they came around with. I want
to say it was like great fight or something. I
don't know, in Florida. Yeah, but I don't know. I
can't remember, but I just remember I remember everybody saying
that it was such a great concert and everybody was
going to it. But oh yeah, all the kids were
going to that stick.
