171 - Rock and Roll Juggernaut

In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast Mark Lindsay goes into the background of one of the most influential hard rock bands of all time. A band that came from humble beginnings and exploded to meteoric heights in the late 70s and early 80s. What was behind their success? How did they become the musical powerhouse they are today? Eloy Escagedo gives his opinions, and the hosts discuss what was and what could have been.

Next is a discussion of listening to music as an activity. Is music as important today as it was in decades past? We know that the way people experience music today is totally different from how we experienced it as kids and young adults. Has that difference caused music to lose the social impact and social importance it had decades ago?

Finally, did the way we experienced music translate to video when the VCR exploded onto the scene?

There is so much more in this episode, but it really has to be experienced. Check out this foot-to-the-floor, hard driving, rock and roll episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast!
