What is the greatest year in music history? Christopher and Tom weigh in and, not surprisingly, their answers are very different. It prompts a rather lively and contentious discussion.
Plus we pay tribute to the many artists we lost in 2022. But don’t expect this to be a mournful show. Think of it more as a celebration of these artists. Included this week:
- Olivia Newton-John talks about her career
- Meatloaf on how “Paradise By The Dashboard Light” could appeal to people of any era
- Ronnie Hawkins on his love of Canadian music, and other sordid tales
- Jerry Lee Lewis in one of the most weirdly chilling clips in our collection
- Dan McCafferty explains how Nazareth got their name
- Plus a clip from the most listened to episode in FLW history
And on When Rock Stars Attack – Jann Arden takes hilarious aim at an American singer.
We finish the show with another edition of the epic smackdown that is “TJ vs The VJ” as Tom & Christopher try to stump each in a test of musical knowledge.
