Speaker 1 (00:00):
On your Mark, get ready start.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Broadcasting from California and Delaware.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
This is the hard Rocking Trivia Show.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
And here are your host Mark and Danny. So I
just came in to say that if you guys need
a review of the concert that I went to yesterday.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Just let me know. And what was that?

Speaker 3 (00:48):
The band was called Toast, the Ultimate Bread Tribute.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
I don't think anybody is interested in that all at all,
except for Danny and I because we do like bread,
but not a who's ever heard of a tribute band
of bread.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
She went with her mom and sister to Annapolis to
see this. I'm working the show tomorrow at the Grand
in Wilmington.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
So and they were really really good.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
It was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Oh they were. They toasted.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Yeah. The funniest part guess what time the show started?

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I don't know. Nobody likes guessing. When you say guess what,
nobody likes some kind of pun coming up or something. No,
four thirty?

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Okay, he doesn't get it.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
No, I don't. Oh okay.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
They had a second show at eight though, and they
added this four thirty show because the first one sold
out so fast and the second one was sold out.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
But it was at rams Head Live, which holds about
two hundred people.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
I mean, I've heard of that, police, but I can't
believe two hundred people showed up for a Bread tribute.
That's mind blowing.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
For two shows and the one tomorrow night at the
Grand there's about eight hundred that sold.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
That is unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Yeah, I mean I.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
When I think of Bread, I think of Danny's father.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Because he liked Bread Greatest Hits album.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
And Yeah, and you would play guitar Man every once
in a while at home. I'm like, Okay, which is
the heaviest Bread song ever?

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Guitar man? Yeah, they did them all.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
It was amazing. I like Aubrey, that's.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
My favorite song, my favorite Bread song.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
Oh. I tried to name our daughter Aubrey. That didn't
go down very well.

Speaker 5 (02:45):
So so what did you think of what'd you think
of the pictures Danny sent you of our trip, because
I think you would have loved to have breakfast at
Malibu Beach.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Oh my god, I wished I had been there. That
was gorgeous.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah, we got lucky. There was nobody there when we
went there. We're sitting in the sand here, the waves
are coming up and wow, this is pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
It's not crowded at all. It was the weekday, but
still it was a Sunday, was Sunday.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
It was a Sunday. We just I guess for some
we just beat the crowd because more people came after us.
But yeah, that's like my dream, eating outside on the beach,
the sand at my feet. Yeah, I love it. Aren't
you guys gonna do that? Next month or this month?

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Yes, three weeks we'll be down a Coasta Rica.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Wow, three weeks. That is awesome. I have never been.
I need a full report of that place.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
All right. We bought a lot of sunscreen already, and
we're on the look for bug spray now because we're
gonna need a lot of all of it. We'll probably
go to Cabela's get some like industrial bug spray because
I don't want I don't want to get eaten by anything.
You know, the animal that causes the most death in
the world.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Mosquito, the one animal. But that's an an animal. I
was gonna say, mosquito. That's not an animal.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
Well, it's not a person or a thing, but yeah,
mosquitoes by far. You know, people are afraid of sharks
and snakes, and stuff like that. Nope, not even close,
one hundred times more. Well, there's so many mosquitoes and
they can carry disease and spread it so fast. There
you go, makes sense.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Look at me? Is I don't know crap about Costa Rica?
But isn't more of a jungle? Yeah, it's more jungle more.
I was gonna say rainforest, rainforest humidity.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Yeah, there's volcanoes. I don't know that we're going to
any volcano areas. But our hotel is right on the
beach on the Pacific Ocean. And it's weird. I always
think of Costa Rica like west coast of the US,
but it's deuce south of Miami.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Yeah, I mean, I mean we talked about that. It's
like I looked at a globe and went, okay, wow,
that doesn't Yeah I always thought west coast. Nope, yeah,
straight down.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
I mean, we're on the Pacific Ocean.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
But all right, Well, I just wanted to say hi,
make sure you didn't want to.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
You know, the Bread review, but no, when we started
our bread podcast, it will be the first to call you.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Yeah, the ao ARC Broadcast podcast. We'll call it. Yeah
album more inid rock, it's like like Toto music. Hello,
kind of like yacht rock?

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Yeah, hey, you know, you know, you know what the
name of the most popular tribute band for that kind
of music is out here? I told you that, didn't
I yacht Lake Crew.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Yacht Yeah, there's one out here. I forget the name
of it, but it's Yacht something Rock Review or something
like that.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
I gotta admit I do listen to the yacht rock
station on Sirius every once in a while, just oh,
because I like I like all those tunes. Yeah, I mean,
it's not cool to like those tunes, but I like them,
so I don't give you them. Alright, boys and girls,
we are live and in person from Delaware in California
for the Hard Rock and Trivia Show Episode to seventy

(06:26):
something I think seventy eight to seventy eight. Yeah, we
are not right. We are not in the same room
again where by coastal Not there's anything wrong with that,
but we're by coastal now. But before we get into
the show, we're gonna do uh, We're gonna go over
my our Spotify playlists. So we have currently eighteen playlists

(06:52):
on Spotify. They are free. You can like them. You
can listen to them. They are free if you pay
for Spotify. There's no commercials if you want to listen
to it for free. They used to throw commercial in
once every three or four songs. But out of the
eighteen we currently have, I went down and checked out
how many followers and how many songs on these particular playlists,

(07:16):
and I'm going to count down the top five so
you're ready to have of the hard rock and Previa
show playlist on Spotify. Here we go.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Number Most of these are like the songs from a
particular year.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Correct, most of them, but there's only one of the
top five this from a particular year. The other ones
are more genre based because they've been around longer, right.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Right, Yeah. I like the ones that are that are
per year, like rock songs, are hard rock and trivia
show songs that we like from eighty two, right eighty
seven or whatever. It's pretty cool a lot of them.
I'm like, man, those came out the same year.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
But yeah, yeah, in terms of the ones by year,
it goes from nineteen seventy four to nineteen eighty seven
right now, and I'm currently working on nineteen eighty eight,
but I probably won't finish out for a few weeks
because I'm super busy with other stuff. But coming in
at number five, and I'm gonna give you the name

(08:16):
of these, so if you guys have pin and paper,
write them down and subscribe to these again. They're free.
Is hard rock and classic metal from nineteen eighty one.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Eighty one, al right, my sophomore year of high school.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah, my junior just saying junior year. Also, there's nineteen
followers currently on that two hundred and thirty seven songs.
How many hours do you think that is? Danny?

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Two hundred and thirty seven songs. I'm gonna guess that's
about that's probably about a day. No, you'd be twenty
four hours, would be my guest.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
No, sixteen hours right now? Sixteen okay, sixteen, but I'm
gonna put more on these later when I get more chance.
As the song sixteen, Yeah, sixteen hours of continuous music
with no repeats. So that's good. So you're sick of
hearing the same song over and over again, you can
throw one of these playlists on and just let it

(09:16):
randomly play, or you can put it in random I
doubt hair.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Nation has sixteen hours on a on a particular playlist.
At any given time they play.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
They probably have the most one hundred and thirty maybe
and they play probably play thirty all the time. But
we're going to rectify that with now. Coming in. Number
four is our playlist called hair Nation Extra spelled XTR.
We have twenty four followers, seven hundred and sixty songs.

(09:50):
How many hours do you think that is?

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Uh? Seven sixty?

Speaker 2 (09:55):
You said seven sixty, seven hundred and sixty unique songs
and hair Nation Extra. I made that one is all
the bands you hear on hair Nation plus the newer
material that came out after nineteen ninety, plus the newer
bands that sound like they're from that era, mostly from Europe.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
I'm gonna guess that's around fifty five hours.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Oh you're super close. Hair Nation Extra fifty one hours
of music nice, non stop, won't hear or repeat. And
we also do these So I mean, if you listen
to something on Spotify, I think the band makes If
you played one hundred times on a song, you might

(10:40):
make a penny or something like something ridiculous like that,
but you know, the band still makes money if enough
you guys listen and we do it. So if you
hears something you've never heard before. Maybe you'll go on
Amazon and buy a CD of a band you've never
heard of, because there's a lot of bands you may
have never heard of. A lot of people people out
there all right. Coming a number three is UH playlist

(11:06):
called hard Rocking seventies as twenty four followers, five hundred
unique songs, thirty five hours tu nice, thirty five hours.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I think I follow all of these.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
I hope. So let's get Let's.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
Get think I do. I think I went through and
followed them all.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Let's get them the grandkids, the wife, the kids, get
all your friends, especially the ones in Richmond, Virginia. Let's
get them. Everybody you know to say, subscribe, you know,
get the numbers up. Yeah, even if you never listened
to it, just subscribe. Help help a brother out. Even

(11:44):
though we don't get anything from this, we just kind
of do it that.

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, spread the brother out. Give us zero dollars like
you have in the past.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah, yeah, watch the things change right now. Now, here's
our two biggest channels here and coming in at number
two is this is the very first channel we ever did.
It's called h RTS Rock Playlist, which stands for a
hard rocking Tribua show.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
One forty followers up to two thousand songs, one hundred
and thirty eight hours of music.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
I wouldn't listen to that in a year. Yeah, but
you know, unless I just put it on during the
day when I'm working and not even pay attention.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Like I took a shower this afternoon and I just
put on the playlist and blasted the music because you know,
the wife is out of town, so I can play
the music I like around the house. So yeah, one
hundred and thirty eight hours of unique music. And each
of these there's again there's eighteen channels, so eighteen playlists,
so you're gonna hear something new all the time or

(12:50):
old whatever. And that particular channel plays everything from the
seventies till yesterday, brand new releases.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Yeah, it's it's great. I like that one lot.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah, hard rock, classic rock, hair metal, aore, melodic rock.
It's all thrown in there, so you don't know what. Yeah,
all right, and coming at number one, and this is
not really a big surprise. It's called hard rock and eighties.
Fifty seven followers so far, eight hundred and fifty songs,

(13:24):
fifty eight.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
Hours nice, so's a lot, but still that's cool.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah, you listen to here Nation, which is actually getting
a little bit better that you can start. They're starting
to play songs they haven't been playing in the past.
But I don't think they're playing fifty eight hours like
we are.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
No, definitely not.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
And we're cheaper, we're free. So you're into this kind
of music that we talk about all the time, you know,
go on Spotify and just foll these.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
I think a lot of the stuff we talk about
ends up on the on one of the one of
those channels somewhere.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
Oh yeah, the playlist for sure.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
I might play something that might be a who the
hell is this and you'll go, damn, that's good, and
then we'll put it on a playlist.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Yeah, you have to look on Spotify because not everything
we talk about is there, but most stuff is. There's
a couple of outliers like dam why isn't that album there?
But yeah, but the majority of them are. And we
go really deep with this stuff. So and you're gonna
find something you love, So go ahead and help help
us out. Follow these playlists. They're very easy to find

(14:34):
and if you're still confused. You can just look up
Hard Rocking Trivia Show on Spotify and look under playlists
on that and you'll see all eighteen of them. So,
and on that note, we're going to jump into a bit.
Instead of stop starting with rapid fire, We're gonna start
off with Danny's signature bit six and thirty.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Woo is a human number.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
It's number. He's six.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
All right, welcome back, everybody. We we're gonna do six
and thirty now where we try to stump each other
with six songs in thirty seconds. So that's five second
clips of six songs, and you basically just have to
get the artists. I think the song would be a
little too tough. But anyway, we always have a theme

(15:31):
with these, and I think I went pretty easy this time.
I think you'll get at least four, maybe.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Five, thank god, because you smoked me last time we
did this.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Yeah, last time, I will admit that was a hard
one and that was on purpose. So this is easier
on purpose. So this one is songs that have the
word machine in the title machine.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
Okay, songs with it, he said.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
It did not do kisses war machine. That would just
be like candy to a baby damn it, So don't
even try it, all right, So people, when you think,
like I said, I think you'll get at least four
of these.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
So all right, So people, when you're playing playing this,
get your pen and paper out. You're gonna have to
write these down. Someone. I'm gonna come right away to you.
I have a feeling Danny saying this is easy, but
I'm gonna choke like I did last time.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
So here, that's sad because I think they're pretty easy.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Okay, all right, all right, play along with me. Here
we go. Okay, I've already done better than I did

(17:14):
last time. But I don't know.

Speaker 3 (17:16):
The first clip I made it was like eight eight
and a half seconds. I made that a little longer
just because that's how long it takes to say that
one phrase.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
But anyway, okay, well I don't I think I got
three maybe four, all right, but there's a couple that
I don't know, which is fine, So everybody, I'm gonna
play it again. Let's see if we can go six
for six. I don't think it's gonna happen, but let's try. Anyway,

(18:19):
didn't help at all, all right, So the first one,
I hope it's not the cover version of it, because
Queen's right, it is.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
It is not the cover.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Okay, so it's the original, the original that is a
Welcome to the Machines by Pink Floyd. Its correct, all right,
here's where it gets tough. Number two the one, Yeah,
I I honestly don't have no clue. I'm gonna say Firehouse.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
No incorrect. That's a European band. I can't really give
you any other clues. It's Pink Cream sixty nine.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Damn, you've used them before. I need to start listening
to them, Shiza.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah, I like those guys that song called Big Machine.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
I need to listen to them more because I liked
what I heard.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Yeah, they're great. Damn. I don't listen to them enough either,
but they're great.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
Is that newer Pink Cream sixty nine or older Pink
it's newer? Oh yeah, so they got a new they
had a new elite singer because their their original singer
is now one of the singers in Halloween. So I
guess I need to listen to them more. Okay. Number
three could be one of two things, but I think
it is Black Sabbath.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
That is correct. That's off the Humanizer.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, the other guests would have been do O.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
So yeah, that's yeah. I figured that one was pretty easy,
and that that song is called time.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
Machine, Yeah, which is my favorite song on that album.
All right, number four is another one I was stumped on.
My guess how about South Gang?

Speaker 3 (19:59):
No, oh, that is incorrect, though it is one of
my favorite bands. They are Canadian, it's.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Not well, it's not right. Have seen them favorite Canadian
band ham Scam.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
That is correct.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
You have already missed it with.

Speaker 3 (20:18):
A song called Swallowed by the Machine. Okay, great, the
whole album.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
And they have a new album coming out so nice, which.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
You will love those guys so much. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
Well, they're playing in Europe, but they're not playing anywhere
around here.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
Yeah damn it.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Well, if I when I retire, and if they were
playing anywhere in the States, I just might fly to
go there. So we might be having a doing a
trip to Detroit or someplace like.

Speaker 3 (20:44):
That, or all right, hey, I'm going, I'm going with
you if that's happening.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
Or like, there's this place in the Chicago area called
the Arcata Theater. I'd go. I'd go once I once
I'm free of teaching. Five days a week. All right.
Number five is a Riot.

Speaker 3 (21:04):
That is correct? Yes, called heavy metal Machine Off born
in the US, are made in America, born born in
the US, born in America.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
You you mixed them all up? Is born in America.
But yes, Riot with Reht Forester, the late great let
Red Forester. Okay. Number six I believe is King's EX.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
That is correct. I figured that would be an easy one.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Yeah, and I missed this, but King's X played the
played in the Gora Hills at the Cane Club about
two weeks ago, and I didn't know about it. Idiot,
I didn't know it.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
That's I think we've talked about it before. They are
the tightest band I've ever seen, no question, it's ridiculous.
Can't even explain it. You have you have to experience
that in person to see see how good they are.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Yeah, they're fantastic and they're no Spring Chicken. So if
they're playing anywhere close by, go see them, because they're
really good. I mean I think.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
All right, so you got four out of six.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Yeah, that's right surprising, Okay.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
I figured you wouldn't get Pink Cream sixty nine and
probably not harm scare them though, Harry HES's voice is
pretty pretty distinct.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
But now, yeah, you've thrown these two bands at me
quite a bit, and I'm gonna have to start listening
a little a little closer. I'm just gonna start guessing
those and we'll see what happens.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
Yeah, well, you can figure I won't use them for
another year or so.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Yeah, Okay, you see how he's trying to trick me
their people, Okay, I got it. All right, you're.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
Six psychology or reverse psychology or am I any psychology?

Speaker 2 (22:45):
What I don't know get because you're not You're not
a psychologist, can't go to school for that. So no,
I'm married to psychologist. But that doesn't help me one bit.
So all right, all right, your particular theme for your
six and thirty is these are all six of these

(23:05):
songs were hits from the April twelfth, nineteen eighty Top
one hundred list, forty five years ago. This is right
before I met you. I think I met you in
the fall of nineteen eighty yep, and this is April twelfth,
nineteen eighty. All these songs are in the top one hundred,

(23:26):
and I picked songs that were in the rock.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
Okay, but they're these are actual songs, but not not bands,
but the actual songs that were in the top.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Well, it's the band that playing the song.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
Well yeah, sometimes you'll say, okay, these bands were in
the top one hundred, and it may not be the song,
but these were actual songs.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Now, these were the songs that were on the charts.
All of them were within one hundred, A lot of them,
probably forty and beyond. But you've heard I know you've
heard at least three of them. But you might get
him because you might you just might know the song.
It's not a super obscure.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
Okay, all right, here we go play long at home.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
I saw that pin moving quickly.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
So oh man, okay, I think I know four of them,
maybe five. Definitely not one of them Jesus. All right,
let's listen to that one more time. Okay, all right,
some of these songs I have heard. I know I
know these three of them. So let's let's listen again.

Speaker 6 (25:17):
Something alrighty, All those songs were hits in April twelfth,
nineteen eighty and probably the song that I think is

(25:41):
going to confuse his most, I believe, is the highest
charting of all those songs.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
At that particular week.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Yeah, that'll yeah, okay, alright. Number one, I know that's Foreigner, yep. Women,
that's Women off Ahead Games yep. Number two, no clue
at all.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
And that's the highest charting one of them all of course.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Is it God, I don't know, God, I don't even
I don't even know.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Is it Argent a Argent? No, it is not Argent,
all right. Their clue is Todd Rundren was in this band.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
Oh what band was he? Uh uh? Utopia?

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Correct? It was Utopia and that song was Yeah, that
was the highest charting out of in that particular week
of these songs.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yes, wow, okay, what number was that?

Speaker 2 (26:38):
I think it was like twenty eight geez.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Okay, all right. Number three I know as Survivor.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Yeap.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Remember that song.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Yeah, it's funny because that was their first hit and
most people have never heard that song.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
But yeah, number four, this is a total guess. But
just I think I remember the song Holiday by Nazareth.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
Correct, and it was it was a single. Yeah, because
I know you went you went down on Nazareth rabbit
Hole a couple of months back. Yeah, this was a single.
I you know, I with this particular time I was
in Germany, so a lot of these songs I never
heard because we only had one radio station in Germany
that played anything that was based out of America. So yeah,

(27:27):
we never heard any of these songs on the radio.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
All right, Yeah I went down that Nazareth. Oh I
wish I had been into them when they were around,
like originally, because I'm sure they toured around where we were. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Most people only know two songs by Nazareth, Love Hurts
and Hair the Dog.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Right, Oh man, there's so many more that are way better.
But anyway, the next one. I remember these guys because
weren't they from around Virginia the Shooting.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Star Nope, but they were played a lot on DC
one to one.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Yeah, yeah, I thought they were from that area. Maybe
I'm thinking of somebody else. Anyway, it was a shooting.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Star Shooting start, correct, Shooting Stars from Shooting Starts from
Kansas City. Okay, the last one for the win, you
get the last one. It's a win for you. So
we're tied at four.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
No pressure down, No way you're giving me a handle
on this one. I don't I don't even I can't
even guess. Is it?

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Throw it out there?

Speaker 3 (28:34):
Journey.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
It's not Journey. Okay, here's your first guess. This band is.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
From Maybe it could be a very early Journey song
that I don't know.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
It does start with J though, Oh yeah, it starts
with J. The band's from Boston. I would say they're
probably the third biggest band to come out of Boston
and the hard rock and the rock.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Okay, so you've got Boston and Aerosmiths.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Maybe the fourth biggest. Fourth, I'd say fourth biggest.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
With the Jay Giles.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
Jay Giles band, correct, comeback off the Love Stinks album.
That was. That was the album before they went nuclear
nuclear with Freeze Frame Nuclear. I can't even say that
word nuclear. So we tied everybody.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Yeah, yeah, oh man, that was a good one.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Yeah. I mean yeah, I knew you weren't going to
get Utopia because if you would give Utopia to me,
I wouldn't have got it either. So yeah, and I
was never a big fan of Utopia to begin with.
But they tried, they tried to push that band out,
but it didn't stick. They had like maybe two hits
and that was it.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Yeah, I mean, Todd Rudgrid was a big deal in
the music industry, you know, he's he was uh in
the later years of the Beatles, he was part of
their whole production crew.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
But yeah, and he had some big songs in the
early to mid seventies, and then he had Utopia Band,
which didn't do that much, but he was actually he
was producing albums for like Cheap Trick and I think
the Cars too. Maybe.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
Yeah, he's I'm sure he's living. He's living large.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yeah, yeah, he's he listening like Maui or something like that,
or whole Hawaii or Kawai, one of those, one of
those islands. He's doing just fine.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
All right, So we tied. I wonder if anybody else
out there got four or more.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
I don't know. Yeah, it was pretty obscurity. I don't
think anybody got Pink Cream sixty nine except all of
our German fans. They got Pink Cream sixty nine, but
we didn't. Exactly, I got the delve deeper into them.
I have to put some Pink Cream sixty nine on
our Spotify playlist because I don't think I have any,
oh man, so maybe should give me. Give me a

(30:55):
list of like ten Pink Cream sixty nine songs and
I'll throw them on there, all right, that'll be my
homework for the week. That's your homework. Give me some songs.
All right. Now it's time to do a quick commercial break,
and we'll be back with rapid fire.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
All right.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
People, in this bit, Dandy and I fire off three
questions at each other, and you people at home play along.
You guys are trying to go six for six, and
Danny and I are trying to go for three for three.
Some of these are total softball easy questions. Some of
these are ridiculously hard that nobody even the bands were
talking about. Won't get the answers right, especially if they
took a lot of drugs in the seventies and eighties. Okay,

(31:43):
here we go.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
I don't think. I don't think you'll get any of mine.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Okay, you're predicting, oh for three, I'm predicting. I think
you might go two for Actually think I think you're
gonna go one for three with me. All right, all right,
question number one. Rat had two top forty US hits.
The biggest one everybody knows is Round and Round that
came in at number twelve. They only had one other

(32:08):
song make the top forty, and that was at number
forty in nineteen eighty five. Name the song.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
I'm gonna guess Way Cool Junior.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
Incorrect. No, it's only can't lay it down?

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Lay it down? Really?

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Yeap. That was the only other song that Rat had
that made the top forty.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Wow, I would have thought way Cool Junior. Well, of
course I did, because I said it. But yeah, it
seemed like that seemed I've heard that song on the radio.
But you know, maybe I maybe I'm thinking I did,
and I just play it a lot.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
That's one of my favorite Rat songs.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
I'm not a big fan of that song. I guess
I don't like the horns in it for some reason.
And in Big Rat News, Stephen Piercy and De Martini
played their first show together at the Moment Yeah and
when well he and Son and Cannneticuette. Pretty it looks
like it was a sold out show. The band is
bloss Elias from Slaughter on drums, Oh the bass player

(33:10):
from Rough Cut, Matt Thor, Carlos Cavazo on guitar, Warren
de Martini, and Steven Piercy.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
So you can go on YouTube and see the shows.
You could see that they're still working it out because
there's a couple of times they messed up a little bit,
but you know, it's our first show playing live.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
So yeah. So but well, I wish I was going
to be around for M three because I would definitely
go to that night.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yeah, they're head. Yeah, he's going to be on the
beach drinking my ties and something like that.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
So yeah, probably more like I don't know something for Margarita.
Probably he'll be in coach study.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
God dah when you come back and tell us all
about it, because oh yeah, I've never been.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
Okay, question number one for you, how many people are
inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame more
than once?

Speaker 2 (34:00):
How many people are in there more than once?

Speaker 3 (34:05):
A bigger number than I would have thought.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
But I'm gonna say fourteen, No, more more than fourteen twenty.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
Twenty six. Wow, Yeah, that seems like a lot to me.
But you probably figured the Beatles.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
All the Beatles are, yeah, solo and the Beatles. Yeah,
I would think. I think Stevie Nix is in there.
I think Tina Turner's in there twice.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
Oh yeah, I bet Lindsey Buckingham probably is twice.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
No, not as a so Phil Collins, Phil Collins for sure.
I think is a well if Genesis for sure.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Yeah, Genesis Phil Collins by himself.

Speaker 2 (34:47):
Yeah, I don't know. Huh, we can't even we can't
even name them.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Yeah, I'd have to go go through and see the list.
But there was somebody that was recently inducted in the
last few years that was.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Like, oh I got one, Neil Sean Santana and Journey yep.
So yeah, but we're gonna see you all day trying
to figure it out, but we ain't gonna get them.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
Yeah. All right, so far we're kicking off with a
bang over two.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
Yeah, okay, here we go. Question two for you, what
was the highest charting WASP album in the US, and
it's from the first four albums. I'll give you the albums.
The albums were the debut album Wasp, the Last Command Inside,
the Electric Circus, or Headless Children. Which one got the highest?

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Oh, I know which one I would choose. I'm gonna
say Headless Children.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
Oh see, that's not the one I would I would
have chosen. The one I like the best is the
Electric Circus.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
But well, I could tell you the numbers that came at.
But Headless Children got up to forty eight. Last Command
got a forty nine. Inside the Electric Circus was sixty,
and the Debut got the seventy four. But that's not
the whole story because only the first two albums went gold,
so Headless Children never went gold. It just debuted higher

(36:14):
than the other one did.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
So it sold a bunch and then didn't sold it
sell any.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
Yeah, but I have out of those four, I think
I like to debut the best.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
Yeah, mine is between that and Electric Circus.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Yeah, that's when old Johnny Rodd joined the band. Yeah,
bouncing around banging his His solo was him banging his
base on the stage. That guy was a nut job.
Hey whatever, Yeah, well it worked for him. I guess
he's still kind of a crazy guy. When you see
him in interviews. You see this guy in his sixties

(36:50):
and he's still a nut job, but very very very
entertaining player.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
Yeah all right. Question number two for you, how is
the Dire Straight song Sultan of Swing related to a
c DC Wow?

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Is there a relationship between the two or something similar.
I would never equate that song, which is probably the
only Dire Street song I actually like, and it was
their first big hit and how's it really to a
c DC. Oh God, I have no idea same chord

(37:30):
progression is an ac DC song. I don't know that.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
Could be because it's D minor C B flat and
a so ac DC could have a song like that,
but I doubt it. Ac DC's more one four or five.

Speaker 2 (37:46):
So you're telling me I'm wrong, Yes, you are wrong.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
So in the Dire Straight song, you know they say
uh something about then there's guitar George. He knows all
the chords, yes, that they are referring to a musician
named George Young, who is the brother, the older brother
of the Youngs Malcolm and Angus.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
And did George Young happen to produce that Dire Streets
album because Georgie I don't believe so, because we've talked
about George Young was in the Easy Beats and he
I think he produced the first five A D albums before.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
Yeah, he actually played bass on the first one, okay,
and then he they got the other guy and then
he's more of a producer than uh and he, I
mean he was in the Easy Beats, but he's produced
a lot of albums. But yep, guitar George is George Young.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Wow, I did not know that. I always thought I
always I always thought he was talking about the guy
from Little Feet. Okay, that's what I thought. Obviously I
was wrong. And there on YouTube there is a killer
documentary about George Young and that whole Australian scene with
the easy beats and all that, and so if you
get a chance, check it out on the YouTube. It's

(39:06):
pretty cool. But I learned something new today. All right,
here we go, ye, now here comes the hard question.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
Oh geez, okay.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
All right, question number three for you. You're familiar with
the Coverdale Page band, right, yep. Yeah. They only toured
in Japan. They did a very short tour and then nothing.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Really.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
They never toured anywhere else. But obviously you know David
coverdown Jimmy Page. Can you tell me who played drums,
bass and keyboards in the touring version of that band?
And all you have to do is give me one
of the three.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
One of the three, uh.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
Huh, drummer, bass player or keyboard player. I can tell
you that the bass player is going virtually impossible. But
the other two guys are known.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
I'm gonna guess they probably got somebody like Cozy Powell.
To play drums.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Close All right, do you want to guess the keyboard player?

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (40:05):
Don airy incorrect, but not a bad guess the bass player.
Check this bass player out. I don't know if you've
ever heard this guy. I'm gonna tell you all the
bands he's been part of it played with you Ready
for this? Pink Floyd, Roxy Music, Gary Moore, Madonna, Pizza Terra,
Michael Jackson, The Smiths, Robert Palmer, Echoing, the Bunnyman, Tears

(40:26):
for Fears, Ice House, Banana, Rama E Pop, Tom Jones,
Deborah Harry and Whitesnake. This guy's play more those people.
And I've heard the name, but it's not a really
name we've ever really talked about.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
So it's not Marko Mendoza. No, let me go. Oh
who's that is that? Uh? Dell Wooton.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
No, the guy's name is Gary Pratt.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
Oh, I know the name, but I couldn't pick him
out of my line up.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
Okay, the keyboard. The keyboard player is known to play
with David Lee, Roth, Steppenwolf, and Fleetwood Mac. But he's.

Speaker 3 (41:09):
No.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
I guess he was probably a backup for there, but
he's probably a touring member. His name is Brent Tuggle.
He played in the sky Scott Skyscraper tour with David
Lee Roth when they brought one in and the.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
Drummer did he tour with Cheap Tray.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
I don't think so. He might have be this one
of those guys he played with everybody because he was
really good. All Right, the drummer, I think you're gonna
get this. The drummer before this, Coverdale Page played with Montro,
Sammy Hagar, Saint Paradise, Gamma, Ted Nugent and Hart.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
Denny Carmassi correct, Okay, so he's yeah, that's a good band.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
Yeah. And when they were practicing and making the album,
putting the songs together, the Danny Carmelcy was the drummer
who did it. The bass player was Ricky Phillips. Really
so those four guys got together and hashed out the
songs and then they put a touring band together and
they never they should They should have toured the States

(42:10):
because the album went platinum. I don't know why they didn't.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
Yeah, it was a great album. Yeah, maybe who maybe
Coverdale couldn't hack it.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Or there's also there was a little blowback I think
from Robert Plant. He was thinking that Coverdale was kind
of mimicking led Zeppelin or Robert Plant. There was a
little drama about that, but I didn't really get that vibe.
Doesn't really sound like led Zeppelin to me. I mean
there's a feel to it.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
Yeah, from what I've seen, it's like some of the
some of its vocal, but other of it is his look,
like he was just going for the lead singer of
led Zeppelin. Look.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Yeah, Well, everybody was copying everybody. You know, Robert Plant
was the Golden God. I mean, if you look for
the seventy guys, they're copying.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Long hair, all curly, shirt open. It was kind of
a look.

Speaker 2 (43:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
And then do you say David Roth was covering was
trying to steal his look?

Speaker 2 (43:11):
Now, davidly roths he stole Jim Danny from Black Oak,
Arkansas's look.

Speaker 3 (43:16):
Yeah, totally.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
All right, So you got one more question for me?

Speaker 3 (43:19):
All right, one more question for you. So I was
one for three.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
Uh huh, which is what I predicted, and you said
I'd go over three.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
Yeah. So, so while I was out in California, you
lent me a book by Bob Daisy. Yes, So I
haven't started reading it yet because I'm reading. I've read
the other two books that your wife gave me first.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
But also the one, okay, the less important one was
the one I gave you the most rock and out
all the three.

Speaker 3 (43:47):
The one I wanted to take more time with, so.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
That that that book goes deep too, especially when they
start talking about the Osbourne and how he gets screwed
over by them.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, he gets taken off the first album.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
Oh it goes deeper than that, taken off his recording everything. Yeah,
that was BS. We all know that.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
Yeah, Sharon's bitch man anyway. So specifically in his career,
he played with Gary Moore quite a bit albums and tour.
How many studio albums did he play with for Gary Moore?

Speaker 2 (44:25):
I think I think he played on two.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
No, that would be incorrect. He played on six, starting
with Quarridors of Power all the way through Still Got
the Blues Geez.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
I always thought that was Neil Murray playing on there, okay, Oh,
because I.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
Know, yeah, pretty cool. It's I would have thought he
that Gary would have gotten a different bass player for
the Blue Stuff.

Speaker 2 (44:51):
But he did. Okay, well, I did not know that
because I did see Bob Daisley play it twice with
Gary Moore on the on the Wild Frontier tour. That
was a killer band too, Eric Singer on drums and
Neil Carter on keys and guitar.

Speaker 3 (45:09):
I know when I saw him, when I saw Gary Moore,
it was Quarters of Power. That Bob Daisy too.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
No, that was Neil Murray, was it? Yeah? I get
those two were interchangeable, yeah, because we saw it when
I think it was Ian Pace on drums from Deep.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
Purple, Yeah, and I know it was the other guy
on keyboards and guitar.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
Was it Neil Carter or was it don Airy at
the time because those don Airy played with Gary Moore too,
I was to look back and find out who who
it was.

Speaker 3 (45:40):
Yeah, it was the Quarters of Power tour. We saw
him open for Crocus and def Leppard.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
All three pants are great.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
Oh man, it was such a good show.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
And getting back to Bob Dazily with Ozzie. A lot
of people don't realize that Bob Daisy wrote all the
lyrics for the first Sick Ozzy albums. And when you
see hearing No More Tears, that big bassline that starts
with that, that's not that's not Mike and is from
Alison Chains. That's Bob Daisy uncredited of course.

Speaker 3 (46:13):
Of course, Well that's a hard bassline because it is
not It starts out in four four, but there's a
there's like an extra note or an extra beat, so
it's really pretty. It's a weird bassline and not the
easiest thing.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
And you talked about how Sharon screwed over the Kurz
Lake and Bob Daisley on the first two records when
they replaced him, and they put him back, but they
screwed him on the third album, which was Bark at
the Moon. On the album it says all songs and
lyrics by Ozzy Osbourne, which is bs because Jakie Lee
brought in all the music and all the lyrics are

(46:48):
by Bob Daisy. They just wanted to I guess they
want to make Ozzy look like he was a I
don't know why they lied, but then again, like.

Speaker 3 (46:57):
He's a contributing like they wanted to give him all
the money and all the credit for being the being
the man.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
I mean, Ozzie was already he didn't he didn't need that.
He was already a legend based on the way he
behaved and the way he's sang, she would have gave
the other guy's credit to the.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
I think, yeah, Sharon's never going to do that.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
Yeah, craziness. Well whatever, I mean, she she made a
star out of the guy. But he was kind of
already a start to begin with.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
But yeah he was, he was already huge. But whatever. Yeah,
even though I feel bad for those guys.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Yeah, they get screwed over big time. All Right, boys
and girls, we're gonna stop right there. We went a
little long and recording this episode, so I'm gonna put

(47:54):
the second half of this particular episode next Monday, so
you only have to wait seven days in tween episodes,
so we'll see in about seven days. To continue this conversation,
