of episode tonight. I don't know how we're going to
fit it all in. I do. Let's get to it.

(01:24):
Da've called Dave, called Dave, called.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Dave called He likes Fall. He's excited that the follows awrve.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
I like Fall.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Okay, Uh, we're talking about that's buzzhead radio. Uh. He
also thought the lady from Zimbabwe was from Zim. It
was in Zimbabwe. I think it's a fair a fair assumption.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
I guess it's because I always jokingly say somebody's from Zimbabwe,
just as a joke. So I guess for some reason,
I assumed everybody knew that. But I guess not.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
You mean you say other people are from Zimbabwe.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, ever since, like college, I'd somebody'd say something and
I'd say, oh, she from Zimbabwe, just because I always
thought the name of the country.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Hang on a minute, now, was she really from Zimbabwe
or no?

Speaker 1 (02:14):
But I think because I always say it you said it. No,
she has she has nothing to do with zimbabwee.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
She's in the military or something in the station in Zimbabwe.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I didn't want to say where she was from, and
I think because I always say she must be from Zimbabwe.
Then you said it, and so she so you said,
just put her down in Zimbabwe and that. So she said,
call me the gal from Zimbabwe. So it had nothing
to do with Zimbabwe other than the fact that a

(02:46):
lot of times when I want to say somebody is
from a weird place, I say they're from Zimbabwe. I've
always said that for years.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
I've never heard you say that.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Well, you obviously had, because you've you said it.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Well, i'd heard you say.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
That before anyway. Yeah, no, she's not from Zimbabwe.

Speaker 3 (03:05):

looked on the Gail location. It's like, oh, that must
be Zimbabwe. Now, okay, that's buzzed. Red Well his sister,

It's always October. If you're listening to this episode, it's October.

Speaker 3 (07:03):

You got to hang up again. But that was a
great conversation you had with that gal.

Yeah, you talk.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
He walked in apparently, is it hey, buddy or something
to somebody? And we couldn't really make out what they
you allys were saying. We didn't listen to the whole
thing seemed kind of rude.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
We listened for a while, hoping you'd speel some secret,
but you didn't.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
So Dave or Steve, you gotta hang the phone out.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Hang the phone up.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Stude from We're gonna say or do something you don't
want everybody seventies Buzz podcast land to hear know about.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
And Jim Hammond from West Jordan, Utah emailed, Hi, Jim,
uh talking about Uh, let's see he says this kind
of long, so whittle it down.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Last week's Robert Redford episode was awesome. I've always been
a fan of his movies. Highly recommend All The President's
Men one of my favorites. Uh. I live roughly an
hour from Sundance Ski Resort. Redford certainly loved the amazing
mountain desert scenery that Utah is famous for. The resort,
he said, Sundance is a resort community primarily catering to

(08:10):
skiing and mountain biking enthusiast, not officially a township. To
answer our question from last week, he said, now this
I didn't know. He says, as far as the film
Festival is concerned. Sadly, twenty twenty six will be the
last event here in Utah. It will be relocated to Boulder,
Colorado for the twenty twenty seven season and forward. What

(08:32):
a bummer?

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Why?

Speaker 1 (08:35):
He says, he doesn't know. Why. Could be the lack
of orgy tense. He says, had to put that in
there for Todd.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
Well, thank you, thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Because of this move, plans were made to have a
special farewell ceremony in twenty twenty six too, in Redford's honor.
Turns out that it still may be the case. One
last thing was an article I read a week ago
regarding Redford's raw in Jeremiah Johnson. He took that role
very seriously. And then there was in seventy four. I

(09:07):
guess the guy that he portrayed passed away in nineteen
hundred and was buried in La was a real guy.
Was a real guy. They buried him in La in
seventy four after a six month campaign by a seventh
grade student and their teacher. Seventh grade students and their teacher,
who did not believe he should be laid to rest
among urban sprawl Johnson's remains were relocated to Cody Wyowming

(09:31):
and Redford showed up and it was actually a pall
bear when they reburied him. How cool is that? And
he even sent me a picture of Robert Redford as
a pallbear.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Oh that's cool, he says, again.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Great job on this in all episodes. Jim Hammond, Jim,
there you go. Okay, So I'm not sure how we're
going to squeeze all this week's episode in, but we're
gonna well squeeze as much in as we can.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
I got a feeling I know how because we're an overlap.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
We might overlap. Okay, So, if you guys saw any
of the Ozzy Osbourne tribute when Ozzy passed away a
couple of weeks ago, there was a young man that
showed up in the deal named Youngblood that sang one
of his songs. And the minute I saw a young
I had never heard of him or seen him before.

(10:23):
He kind of seemed familiar that like maybe I had
seen him in a show or something, but just vaguely.
But I'd never heard of him as a singer, and
he blew me away. As far as being a rock star,
I was like that dude is a freaking rock star,
and I was like, you know, how do you have
the balls to do some of that stuff? Well, because

(10:44):
I kind of thought he was pretty cool, I started
searching for stuff on him, and I've ordered two albums.
But now Facebook and Instagram and everything just wants to
show me Young Blood videos. So yeah, so I'm seeing
all of these videos from his concerts and this dude
is like a freaking rock star. And his name is
spelled if you're going to look it up y U

(11:06):
n G B l U D. He don't know how
to spell young blued. But he's just your true rock star.
And I got to thinking, we don't have we don't
have rocks number one, We barely have any rock music anymore,
let alone any more rock stars. And I was like,
there were so many rock stars in the seventies. And

(11:28):
I got to thinking, well, let me see all the
rock stars in the seventies. So I started searching. There's
almost I literally couldn't find a list of rock stars
from the seventies. It was they included rock bands, and
then they included front men, and then they included best singers,
and then they included best guitar, but there was not there.

(11:48):
I could not find like a list of the top
rock stars from the seventies. So you and I right
now are about to create the only list that I
know of, and I'm going to put it. I'll put
it on my blog, so it'll be a written form,
but here is. So that's what tonight's episode is about.

(12:09):
I thought the seventies had dozens of rock stars. Oh yeah,
and literally today, other than young Blood, I can't I
couldn't name a rock star in the last ten years.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
Except for the old guys that are in their seventies.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, but those are the guys, yeah, from the seventies.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
So anyway, so that is what tonight that's what's spawned
tonight's episode.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
Yeah, not the sixties.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, there were some rock stars towards the end of
the sixties that went over the line into the seventies.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
A lot of these, yeah, almost all of them.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
And I kid you not, December thirty first, nineteen seventy
nine is stopped. There's no rock stars in the eighties.
So if you were to look up in the dictionary,
if it does not say the decade of rock stars,
I'd be pissed. And why did the seventies have all
the greatest rock stars?

Speaker 3 (13:03):
Mister Wheelers, Well, because I was the greatest that get
rocks too bad?

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yes it was, and it did it literally. I mean really,
when you look at the sixties and you look at
the eighties, the seventies had all the freaking rock stars.
And so what we decided to do was come up
with our did you get twenty?

Speaker 3 (13:24):
I got nineteen, and I couldn't pick. I mean, there
was a there's a bunch of I's.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Gonna say, there's so many. You guys are going to
be pissed because we're going to leave somebody. You guys
think she'd be on the list.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Allah, so we I he.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Todd said, you know what we want a podcast? I said,
let's do our top twenty rock stars from the seventies.
So I have no idea what his twenty are. I
have no idea what my twenty or he didn't know
what my r but I have a feeling at least
twelve to fifteen of ours will be the same.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Yeah, at least half and.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
So real quick to me, the definition of a rock
star it's an individual. It's not a band. But the
you know, individual could be in a band, but I
it's not a band. It's an individual, and it's somebody
who has attitude and acts a little different than like
a guy just standing up there singing into the microphone.

(14:18):
You know, they put on a show, they've got a
lot of record sales. People flocked to them. I don't know,
you just it's like when I saw young Blood, there
was no question in my mind he's a rock star.
And so that that's my definition is you kind of
know it when you see it, and so so anyway,
so here are our lists.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
It's a list show.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
It's a list show. And I've got so much information
and stuff. I didn't even get any sound bites. You
guys know what their songs are?

Speaker 3 (14:48):
Oh yeah, yeah, I guess I could have got.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
So my thinking went a little different, not just looks,
but like their ability to write rock stuff, produce rock stuff.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yeah yeah, and so on.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
So yeah, so everybody kind of can have their own
definition of rockstar. That was my definition, is that, But
and when you look up rockstar, there really is no
it's kind of a vague definition. So, and did you
do yours in any particular order?

Speaker 3 (15:26):
Well, obviously the very first one I wrote was Elvis.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Elvis Presley right there.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
I mean, I mean, and you said, and why we
think they you should be? And I go, I said,
Elvis Presley that I wrote because I've made it an
arrow back, because he's Elvis.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Well as bad as Elvis was, Elvis was still a
freaking rock star. Oh h in nineteen seventy seventy was
a rock star. Oh absolutely, But in nineteen seventy and
seventy one, there's some pictures of him were that was
he looked better than ever his whole life.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
Oh yeah, when he went to Hawaiian stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
He was looking good in the early seventies.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Oh absolutely, so yeah, So.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
Definitely Elvis Presley number one, and I got him number
one on my list too. I mean, you can't have
the king of rock and roll not be the number
one rock star.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yes, yes, let's see.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
He performed in Las Vegas from July of sixty nine
to December of seventy six. Period included his shows from
seventy to seventy seven, holding the record for the longest
Las Vegas residency with six hundred and thirty six shows
at the International and Las Vegas Hilton Hotels.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Oh really, even today, Yeah, I guess.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
I mean that's according to what I read.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Yeah, yeah, they usually they don't stay that long anymore though,
to be there.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
For yeah, you know, a couple of months or yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah. Yeah. So even to his dying days, he was
still a freaking rock star. And then that his whole
that whole period where he started wearing the jump shoots
and doing the jumpsuits and doing the karate moves, which
that's rock star under rock star moves. Dude, that's a
rock star suit.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
And he had a bat he got a badge from Nixon.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yes he did. Yeah, so number two on my list.
And I don't know if you'll have this guy on
your list or not.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
Peter Frampton, see, yeah, I should have put him on.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Peter Frampton. I mean, talk about a rock star.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
I knew i'd be forgetting somebody.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Yeah, well, yeah, I bet we'll both be. So I'm
gonna so. Elvis died in seventy seven. Peter Frampton is
still alive. He's seventy five, undeniably a rock star, achieving
mass global fame as a guitar hero and solo artist. Yeah,
particularly with Frampton comes alive, he was a defining figure
of the seventies, known for his musical mastery, captivating stage presence,

(17:50):
and ability to connect with huge audiences. And you know
that's almost all the video you see of him is
in front of a huge live audience.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
He was the dude that pioneered the voice box. What
do they call that?

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Thro Oh gosh, you would ask, Yeah, I had it somewhere,
rolling over news is not.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah. He twenty twenty four inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame. His ninety six live album became
a global phenomenon, topping the charts and becoming one of
the best selling live albums of all time. Mister Peter Frompton,
I did not get Peter should who else she got?
Over there?

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Okay, this one? I don't know. You got Tom Schultz.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
You know, I was debate, and I mean.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Here because not so much of his on stage presence
and stuff. I don't know that I've ever watched seen
him on stage.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
He's not a super charismatic on stage, but he pioneered
the guitar sound of the seventies, which was Boston.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
Yeah. I mean he was a one man man in
the basement. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
So, and we've done bustin episode and I think there's
been documentary so and if you've forgotten or don't know,
he literally wrote all the songs and played all the
instruments in his basement and then when he got picked
up by a record label, he had to form a
band and teach him how to play everything.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah, and that's when Brad Delp came along.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:17):
So yeah, he was unfortunately committed suicide.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Yeah, but yeah, definite rock star. How about a dude
that you and I know personally, Paul Stanley.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
I got him, got it And I can't put Paul
Stanley on there and not put Gens in.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
Well, let's do them together because I say exact same
thing I did, And for those are the only two
that were really really rock stars. I mean, Ace was
a rock star in his own right, but just not
the rock star that these two were. Now, Paul Stanley
is seventy three, Gene Simmons of seventy six. Of course,
they were the founding members of Kiss. They inducted in

(20:00):
to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Uh. Paul
Stanley was star Child as his Kiss persona, and Gene
Simmons was the.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
Demon Demon, not the devil, not the devil Demon demon.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
It's important now we've done a kiss episode. But I
had forgotten or I didn't know, I are forgotten. I
guess that he was born Kaiam Wits, but then changed
his name to Jene Klein and then changed it to
Gene Simmons. So because he had he moved from Israel

(20:37):
to the United States, and I believe his one of
his parents stayed in Israel.

Speaker 3 (20:44):
I think he came over with his mother.

Speaker 1 (20:46):
I think, and I think her name was Klein or something.
That's way he changed it to Gene Klin anyway.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah, So they've been in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame. Gene Simmons, I mean, what can we say,
the tongue, the spitting fire. You don't get any more
rock star than Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, I mean,
the clothes, the six inch boots.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
Yeah. Uh and Gene as a marketing genius.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Well yeah, Gene marketing genius. They both. I think they
wrote the majority of all the songs for the band.
And then still today there's still a team doing one
of those restaurants called Rock and Bruce and casinos and
stuff like that. So yep, I can't have a rock

(21:39):
star list without those two on it. And then I've
got two my next two guys were in the same
band together.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Let me yes, Lindsay and Steve no not a well,
let's since you mentioned it, let's hop on there.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
I've got Stevie Nix on my list of rock stars.
But I didn't put Lindsey Buckingham.

Speaker 3 (21:59):
I did just because he wrote so much stuff.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah and see, and so you're you're heavy on the
writing and I'm more on the I'm more on the
like where girls passing out or dudes passing out when
they saw these people. I'm kind of one in that
kind of And Lizzie's just kind of laid back. I mean,
he's great, but he's kind of just kind of laid back.
And whereas Stevie, she's got the clothes and the spin

(22:28):
spinning and the tambourine and the whole persona. So she's
seventy seven years old. Of course, started out Buckingham Nicks,
and then they were picked up by Fleetwood Mac and
then they turned Fleetwood Mac into the global sensation that
they were came out. They wrote a lot of the
songs on rumors. She's like all time. Let's see Queen

(22:52):
of it, she's been named. Rolling Stone named her the
reigning Queen of rock and Roll. She was named one
of the one hundred Greatest Songwriters of all Time and
one of the one hundred Greatest Singers of all Time
by Rolling Stone. Her Freetwood Mac songs Landslide, Rihanna and
Rn and Dreams, with the last being the band's only

(23:12):
number one hit in the US, together with her solo
hit Edge of seventeen, have all been included in Rolling
Stone's list of the five hundred Greatest Songs of all Time.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
So I don't know if i'd call her the Queen
of rock. They call her the Queen of rock and roll.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
That's what Stone says. Rolling Stone named her the reigning
Queen of rock and.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
Roll, even over like Nancy Wilson, who actually, yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
I don't know, that's just you know. She is the
first woman to have been inducted twice into the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame, Inducted as a member of
Fleetwood Mac in ninety eight and a solo artist in
twenty nineteen. She garnered nine Grammy Award, eight Grammy Award nominations,
and two American Music Award nominations as a solo artist.

(24:00):
Are you so?

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Who are your earther?

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Two?

Speaker 3 (24:02):
Edward von Holland Oh crap I forgot about.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
The you can't be a rock star and without a
list without Eddie van Halen, who died in twenty twenty
American musician guitarist, keyboardists, backing vocal for the rock band
van Halen, founded by he and his brother Alex in
nineteen seventy two. He's widely regarded as one of the

(24:27):
greatest guitarists in rock history and was well known for
popularizing the tapping guitar technique now rappered arpeggios to be
played with two hands on the front board. Van Halen
was voted number one in Guitar World magazine poll for
one hundred Greatest Guitarists of All Time poll, and Rolling

(24:47):
Stone ranked Van Halen fourth in its list of two
hundred and fifty Greatest Guitarists of All Time. And then
you can't have Eddie without David So back in the seventies,
David Lee Raw was definitely a rock star, doing his
jumps up in the air and as well his splits
up in the air and very very energetic on stage.

(25:11):
Hey he had the hair, he had the clothes, the
tight fitting clothes. So yep, so anyone had to throw
him I could. You can't have Eddie and not throw
David in there. Oh no, So those were my two
from Van Halen. When did When did Sammy?

Speaker 3 (25:30):
Yeah? When did Sammy?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
You know, I don't really remember when Sammy that.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
In the seventies, I think it was let's see, he
was this is Roth.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
He was the lead vocalist for Van Halen from seventy
four to eighty five, and then during ninety six and
then from six to when they disbanded in twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
So Sammy didn't come on until eighties.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Correct, So yep, I get it. What you got on
your list over there?

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Oh well, how about Elton John?

Speaker 1 (26:03):
I got Elton John on my list. You can't be
a rock star list without Elton John.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
I mean, it's about as flashy as they get.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
Now. The thing about Elton John is in the seventies
he was a rock star. If you only know Elton John,
like within the last twenty years, you don't know Elton John.
Go back to the seventies when he was jumping around
stage and jumping up in the air and every seems
like every song he had on a different wacky pair

(26:30):
of glasses, and you.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
Know he didn't need those.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Oh yeah, I know, yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
I think it was there an homage to Buddy Holly,
I think.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Oh really, yeah, yeah, I mean that was his signature
for all through the seventies.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Yeah. I just recently found out that he didn't need glasses.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
Well seventy eight years old. He is Sir Elton Hercules
John born original Kenneth Dwight.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Oh he added the hercules. I'm guessing I would guess.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
He don't look very to me.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah, he reminds me of my uncle. Oh really, without
the flashy You've never uncle.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
I haven't met your uncle.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
Yeah, he's he's round and.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
For some reason, I'm picturing your uncle being slim for
some reason.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
H He's He's a very.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Elton Johnny, very Elton Johnny.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Okay, except he doesn't jump around and sing and play
the piano.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
And well, and Elton doesn't anymore, and he hasn't for
quite a while. That's why I'm saying. And what was
that movie that came out, The Rocketman? Rocketman? Rocketman was
a good representative of how energetic he was back in
the day. He has sold over three hundred million records worldwide,
making him one of the best selling music artists of

(27:47):
all stinking time.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
Him and o'bernie, him and Old Bernie.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Bernie wrote the songs, He wrote the music and was
a beautiful partnership. Yes, all six of his albums from
the seventies made the Rolling Stone two thousand and three
list of five hundred Greatest Albums of All time.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
Wow, that says something.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yeah. Between seventy two and seventy six, he also had
six singles reached number one on the Billboard Hot one hundred.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
I introduced Mark Mankin to Elvin John. He had never
really listened to him. So and I discovering from one
of my sisters. I think it was Cindy. She had
that Brown Dirt Cowboy.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Album and where's that my brother? So that was one
of them, and I got to listening to it, and
it's like, dang, that's pretty good to do.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
I got one of those k Tel albums, you know,
that had like various artists and it had Yellow Brick
Road on it. I thought, oh, that's a pretty cool song,
and then you kind of start investing, you know, But
it wasn't like today, you couldn't hop on Apple Music
or Spotify. I mean, where did we find out about
how do.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
We learn about it?

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Any?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Think back in the seventies, Well, I mean, of course
obviously there was the radio, but there was a lot
of people who didn't get played on the radio. Yeah,
I don't that's a good I.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Think he just got more popular and we just heard
more of his songs. And probably I don't remember ever
buying an Elton John album, but but I always.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Liked his stuff, and I guess going to the record
store and you'd flip through and you'd be like, who's that? Yeah,
you know, like you just try, Like I remember when
I bought my AHA album. You know, I don't think
I don't think that was the seventies, was it? I
don't think so.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
But you know that take on me that only get
song on the whole damn album?

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (29:39):
Unfortunately.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Yeah. Well, and then we had Midnight Special which he
was on Midnight Special Time or two and Saturday Night Live.
So people are probably wondering, why haven't you mentioned this
guy yet?

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Mm hm oh.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Fred Fred Mercury passed away nineteen ninety one. Be born
in BELARUSA no both Sarah No born Boss Sarah. That
was his last name. He was British. For rock was
his first name.

I'd be like, mom, shut up, yeah, good calling me
for rock.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
He was the lead vocalist and pianist of the rock
band Queen, regarded as one of the greatest singers in
the history of rock music. Was known for his flambuoyant
stage persona for octave vocal range. He defied the conventions
of rock a rock front man with his theatrical style,
influencing the artistic direction of Queen. Yeah. He was definitely

(30:58):
could be up there at the top one or two
frontmen of a rock and roll band.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Hey, uh, going back to Elton real quick. Huh that
album Brown Dirt Cowboy?

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Uh huh.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
Do you ever wonder why they call it?

Speaker 1 (31:11):
I never even know.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
I was just wondered if you ever thought the same
thing i'd do.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
No, no, no, my mind is not going there now.
I just did. Sorry, Sorry, listeners, somebody's scrambling to look
it up right now. I just stay named that. I
just assume I, uh, there's stuff I that went over
my head in the seventies, and I look back and
I was like, why didn't I know what that meant?
Back then?

Speaker 2 (31:37):
Oh no, no, no, back then I didn't. Yeah, you know,
but as I got older, Okay, anyway, uh.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
The Who lead singer Roger Daltrey described Mercury as the
best virtuoso rock and roll singer of all time. He
could sing anything in any style.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
I got Roger Daltrey on my list.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
I got Roger on my list.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
He had the stage prisons, he was Yeah, did he
play an instrument?

Speaker 1 (32:05):
I don't, not that I'm aware of.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
I think only sign singing, singing.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
But he definitely was a singer that didn't just stand
in front of the microphone. He is still alive eighty
one years old. Sir Roger Harry Daltrey also an Englishman,
also an actor, a co founder and lead vocalist of
Zahou Zaho. His stage persona earned him a position as

(32:33):
one of the gods of rock and roll. He wrote
Let's See. He began a solo career in seventy three
while still a member of the Who. Considered Who is
considered one of the most influential rock bands of the
twentieth century, having sold over one hundred million records worldwide.

(32:53):
He's won pretty much every music award out there. They
were in the inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame in nineteen ninety, the UK Music Hall of
Fame in two thousand and five. He's ranked number sixty
one on Rolling Stones, a list of one hundred greatest
Singers of all time. So he he's a rock star.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Excuse me, I'm eating nuts. I don't know why I'm
eating nose. I'm not even hungry. Here's somebody I got
that I know you don't have.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Okay, and he's not super rockstar ish, but he is
very important. Todd Rudgren. Uh yeah, that album Something That.
There's an album called Something Anything. It was really really diverse,
and he dabbled in all not all these genres of music.

(33:55):
But yeah, but his big contribution was he was a producer.
He produced for Meat Loaf, he did the Bat Out
of Hell album. He produced for the New York Dolls,
Patty Smith, Bad Finger, Grand Funk, Railroad, Cheap Trick, and
a band called XTC. I've never heard of them.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
I don't know that I have either.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
So I looked him up. It's a very British band,
but I've never I'm assuming Christopher Todd might know who
XTC is. Huh yeah, I thought Todd Runbound deserved to.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
Be a rockstar.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Well, you mentioned one on my list that I don't
know that's on your list Meat Loaf Dan Yeah, Yeah,
passed away in twenty twenty two. He's kind of one
of those guys where girls weren't fainting over him, but
he had the persona, the stage presence, the.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
What's it going to be boy?

Speaker 1 (34:53):
Yeah. Michael Lee A Day was his real name. American singer.
He was also an actor, powerful, wide ranging voice, theatrical.
He was basically in theater before he went out as
a singer. His Bat Out of Hell album trilogy Bat
Out of Hell, Bat Out of Hell two, Back in Hell,

(35:17):
Bat Out of Hell three, Monster Lows has sold more
than one hundred millions records worldwide, making him one of
the best selling music artists of all time. The first
album stayed on the charts for over nine years and
is one of the best selling albums in history, still
selling and estimated two hundred thousand copies annually as of

(35:39):
twenty sixteen. Wow I Mean that's some star power there, Meatloaf.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
And was produced by really talenty guys.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Yes, he was.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
I just always had a thing for todder redgrid Well.
That album's really cool. What else you Gotcartney?

Speaker 1 (36:02):
You know, I thought about it, but I didn't put
him on my list, But go ahead, Well, I mean
he's yeah, No, he's definitely a rock star. I mean,
if there's a rock star, he's definitely a rock star.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah. Maybe you should have emphasized Flashy Well on my list.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
And that's why I didn't put him on my list,
because I mean, super great songwriter, hits popularity, charisma, but
just not a whole lot of to me, not a
whole lot of stage presence. And I think that's what
I was kind of trying to look for. Who who
has stage.

Speaker 3 (36:37):
Presence this way we cover.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Yeah, that's why our list we don't want to have
the same.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
Twenty sure, so it'd be kind of tough. Yeah, Steven Tyler.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
I gotta have Steven Tyler. I mean I can't have
a Rock and Rollers without Steven Tyler.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Who and he did not cut his hair, by the way, Yeah,
there was.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
A that was a faul fake AI. Yeah, Stephen Victor Talerico.
I guess he's seventy seven years old. Boston based rock
band Aerosmith. He has been called the Demon of Screaming
due to his high screams at his wide vocal range.

(37:21):
He's also known for his on stage aerobatics during live performances.
Tyler is known for dressing and colorful, sometimes androgynous outfits
and makeup, with his trademark scarves hanging from his microphone stand.
If you didn't know Stephen Tyler welts. Aerosmith and Young

(37:41):
Blood have an OWL. I don't know if it's a
full album. They've got five songs together out and their
song Angel shot to number one on some online lists.
So and so that's where you're gonna start hearing about
young Blood all over the place. And it's gonna be
because of Aerosmith. And I gets guarantee you they're gonna
be playing at the next Grammy Awards show. He's gonna

(38:07):
light that place on fire. I mean, I just can't
believe some of the stuff this he's he he just
he like jumps out into the crowd and they like
hold him up by his feet and the security guards
are just going bonkers. He's just that kind he's he's
just that kind of rock star that just and then
he pulls people up on stage and and if if

(38:27):
they're holding a sign up and they say can I
play lead on one of his songs, he like pulls
him up out of the audience and gives him his guitar,
and then they play lead on one of his songs.
I mean, he's he's literally living the rock star life
right now.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
Quintessential rock star. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
But back to Stephen.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
Dyer, Apparently Stephen Tyler's voice is okay.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
It's it sounded okay on the songs that they they're releasing.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
Yeah, and and and he didn't hold back when he sings.
I mean, he's, well didn't he.

Speaker 1 (38:59):
Didn't didn't know that was okay. I was gonna say,
didn't they kick kn't no that way it was Ario Speedwagon.
They kicked Kevin Cronin out of the band they did
kin Yeah, and yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
Wasn't it his band?

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Kinda yeah, I can't remember. It was something anyway, they
had a breakup there, but and I okay, so it
wasn't these guys so anyway, yep. So Tyler is included
in Rolling Stones list of one hundred Greatest Singers of
All Time, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame with Aerosmith. His wrong songwriting partner Jill Perry, received

(39:34):
the ass Gap Founder's Award and were inducted into the
Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Very cool. So see who else I got out here
on my list?

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Believe it or not. Prince was in the seventies. His
first album came out in nineteen seventy eight.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
It's kind of like Michael Jackson had an album out
in seventy nine.

Speaker 4 (39:55):
But yeah, I don't think of Michael Jackson as Oh
no it was rock though, Oh no, no, But I
don't really I see, I don't really consider Prince rock either.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
O you kidding me?

Speaker 1 (40:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Oh no, yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Not in the seventies.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
Though, Well he was in the say he had an
album in the sevenies.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Well yeah, well I do. Well that's your list. Talk
about him?

Speaker 3 (40:20):
Well, have you seen where he gets up there and
plays my guitar gently weeps?

Speaker 1 (40:27):
I probably have that. I mean, dude, phenomenal guitar player.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
I think he's I think he's better than Eddi van Halen.
I think he's I don't know anybody that's better honestly.
I mean, I you know, we might be getting some letters,
but no hate mail. Oh you can say I don't care,
but I mean I yeah. And he plays, he plays
a lot of instruments. U.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
And you'd probably be surprised at how many hit songs
he's of other artists that he wrote. Yes, I didn't
make that, which is which is kind of crazy.

Speaker 3 (41:02):
Yeah, that's just terrible, sad he's gone.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
Well, let's get back to the thick of the seventies,
not the edge of the seventies, but smacknab in the
middle of the seventies.

Speaker 3 (41:13):
That on the edge of the seventies.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
There you go. How about Robert Plant. Oh yeah, Robert
Plant of Lead Zeppelin. English boy, there's a lot of
English rock stars. He enjoyed great success with Led Zeppelin
through the seventies and developed compelling image as a charismatic
rock and roll front man, you know, always having a

(41:37):
shirt off or unbuttoned, had the hair, had the tight jeans.
He was your typical let's say, Plant helped create the
god of rock and roll or rock god archetype, which
he actually did on stage. Plant was particularly active in
live performances, off and dancing jumping, skipping, and snapping his fingers, clapping,

(42:02):
making empi emp haadock, empatic gestures and emphasis on lyric
or symbol crash, throwing back his head or placing his
hands on his hips.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
So what's what's empatic?

Speaker 1 (42:17):
I think probably like overemphasized. I guess. Let's see. And
as the seventies progressed, he, along with the other members
of led Zeppelin, became increasingly flamboyant on stage and wore
more elaborate, colorful clothing and jewelry.

Speaker 3 (42:37):
I'm looking at that, just curious.

Speaker 1 (42:39):
Propelling him further into rockstar status. I don't know what
it means. I'm just guessing. Yeah, it's e M P
H A T I C A T I C emphatic. Oh, emphatic,
maybe emphatic.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
Oh okay, all right, well I know what that is,
showing or giving emphasis espressly something forcibly and clearly. Okay, Yeah,
he was he was very he was very or is
very emphatic.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
Uh wonder seventy seven years old?

Speaker 3 (43:14):
No wonder, I didn't know, and still rocking are the
is he still?

Speaker 1 (43:20):
I don't know if they're still doing any touring.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
I mean, I wouldn't I never was a huge fan.

Speaker 1 (43:27):
I was not. They had a couple of songs, and
I had, of course Stairway to have an album. But yeah,
I was never a big But I wouldn't a big
Who fan either. I would I don't even know with
free tickets if in the seventies, if I'd have gone
to see led Zeppelin or the Who. I just wasn't
that interesting.

Speaker 3 (43:44):
And I'm the same way with Kint Floyd and same I.
You know, those guys, I don't know, they got great stuff.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Yeah, but yeah i'd go see Rush. He's even Rush.
I wasn't a big Stayton was a huge Rush fan,
but I just was like, yeah, you.

Speaker 2 (44:02):
Know, yeah, you're not funny how some you know, some
people just like different things, like you would never consider
Alan Parson's a rock star.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
I put him on my list because.

Speaker 2 (44:12):
Of all the cool things he did. You're not flamboyant.
Matter of fact that I don't even know if he
even gets up on stage. I'm sure he did back
in the day, but they didn't.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
They didn't do a lot.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
Yeah, but and they were more like almost like I
think the videos I've seen of them, they're more like
a Chicago band where every all the members are on instruments,
and there's not really anybody you know, in front just
doing their own thing. It's more like they're band a
whole orchestra thing, you know.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
So it was called the project, the Alan Pars Project.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
Yeah, uh, do you have make Jagga?

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Oh no, I didn't think about it.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
God have make Jagger. I think he might be the
oldest one on the list, maybe at eighty two. Jez
Sir Michael Phillip Jagger again Englishman, a singer of the
Rolling Stone. Jagger and the rest of the band changed
their look and style as the nineteen seventies progressed. While

(45:19):
in France, Jagger learned to play guitar and contributed guitar
parts for songs on Sticky Fingers and then other albums.
Over time, Jagger has developed into a template for rock frontmen, and,
with the help of the Stones, has, in the words
of the Telegraph, changed music through his contributions to it.

(45:41):
As a pioneer of the modern music industry, he's often
described as one of the most influential and popular front
men in the history of rock and roll. And he's
still going strong.

Speaker 3 (45:52):
He's still going. So did you have David Bowie on.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
There I did. He was a freaking rock star. Died
in twenty sixteen. But if there was a dude that
was flamboyant and had stage presence, and you know there
were some people that were like, oh, he's got it,
you know, that was David Bowie. During his lifetime, his

(46:17):
record sales estimated over one hundred million, made him one
of the best selling musicians of all time, numerous awards, Grammys,
often dubbed the Chameleon of rock due to his continual
musical reinventions. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame in nineteen ninety six. Rolling Stone ranked

(46:37):
him among the greatest singer, songwriters and artists of all
freaking time. Let's see. As of twenty twenty two, Bowie
was the best selling vinyl artist of the twenty first century.
If you're not a rock, if you got that moniker,
you gotta be, I mean a freaking mount start Kurtis

(46:57):
Droppy mob.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
This sec he's gonna be knocking on our door.

Speaker 1 (47:02):
I have to have to edit that out. Look, look
at your timing.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
There.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
Dressed in a striking costume, his hair dyed reddish brown,
Bowie launched his ziggy start a stage show with the
Spiders from Mars.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
I got a right, you get all excited. How about well,
would you can you probably wouldn't consider Billy Joelo rock star?

Speaker 1 (47:28):
I would not. I mean, you know, if I had
a if I did a Top fifty, okay, but he
would not be in my top twenty as a rock star.
But he's definitely a rock star. Okay, okay, I mean
definitely a rock star. There's no doubt about that. That's
why I say people are going to be yelling at us, like,
oh yeah, because there's so many the seventies, like was

(47:50):
nothing but rockstars. It's just crazy.

Speaker 3 (47:54):
Yeah. Uh?

Speaker 1 (47:55):
And here real quick before I forget two that could
have been on our list but aren't. Jim Morrison because
he didn't die till seventy one, and so they had
they did have some concerts, and then Jimmy Hendrix, who
died in seventy had played. But I didn't include them

(48:16):
because I didn't feel like they were enough. They didn't
have enough seventies portfolio to put them in the seventies.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
So what about what about Clapton.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
Clapton again would be in my top probably thirty. He
just didn't make my top twenty.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
He's definitely a rock star though getting close on time.

Speaker 1 (48:40):
Okay, you probably don't have this guy. This guy to
me though, it was rock and roll back in the day,
Rick Nielsen, Oh yeah, seventy six, just because of his look.
I don't think. To me, I wouldn't have liked cheap
trick as much had he not been the character that
he was. The backward, the flipped up bill on his hat,
the bow tie is the colorful, uh, checkered shoes, playing

(49:04):
using a different guitar every song. I mean, he just
he was to me he was a rock star. Alice Cooper,
godfather of shock rock, defunite, definite rock star, Ozzy Osbourne.
As far as heavy metal, he was kind of the
rock star of heavy metal.

Speaker 3 (49:22):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
The Prince of Darkness was his nickname. Uh, who did
we talk about? Jimmy Page. Jimmy Page with led Zeppelin
right there behind Mick Jagger at eighty one years old.
He was a founding member of led Zeppelin, played guitar.
He back in the day was a rock star. He's

(49:44):
number four on the Classic Rocks one hundred Wildest Guitar Heroes.
He was inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame twice as a member of Yardbirds and a member
of led Zeppelin and anything else. Keith Richards I got

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
