Episode 30: A Different Kind Of Ten

New Episodes

Shake hands with Van Halen. It is pretty much a miracle that there is a new Van Halen record out in general let alone one that features Diamond David Lee Roth on lead vocals. So in light of all of this, I decided to do yet another artist focus episode but this time for the mighty Van Halen and their entire history and family tree that goes with them. I hope you like it! Want Some?!

Episode 28: Do It Again

New Episodes

Re-recordings of songs that do not suck or offend. In light of the Scorpions new album called ‘Comeblack’ which is half covers and half re-recorded hits, it got me thinking whether or not there were other examples of this which I actually liked. I was very surprised to find out that there are exceptions to my ‘all re-recordings suck and are unnecessary’ rule, who knew? So join me as I focus on a musical topic which is damn near impossible to defend and check out bands and singers who have gone into the studio with the sheer intention of rewriting history and yet they didn’t tarnish it either.

Episode 24: The Ten Of Eleven

New Episodes

My favorite albums of 2011. This is the Rock Strikes Ten debut of the ‘C’ in CNJRadio. The records I chose for this show is the list as of air time on New Year’s Day and I had a list with about 15 more records that I enjoyed quite a lot this year but I ultimately decided on playing these particular albums. I hope you are not bummed that I didn’t rank any of them except for the top two. Perhaps a familiar voice will make things up to you……

p.s. I definitely recommend the laundry list of records I spout off at the end of the show as well

Paying tribute to the musicians, singers and songwriters who we lost this year. This week it is ten songs representing these people who passed on and spotlighting the music they created. I want to mention here that there were a few more notable deaths this year and I didn’t mention them on the show.

Don Kirshner – brought rock and roll television to an entire generation of 70’s kids
Wurzel (Motorhead) note: I played a song that Wurzel performed on during the recent metal show
Andrew Gold note: I felt really bad leaving him off the show
Steve Jobs – No podcasts without this guy, THANK YOU STEVE!
“Macho Man” Randy Savage – easily the hardest death for me this year, miss ya champ!

Episode 20: Death By Stone

New Episodes

aka Guitarists that do no make me Jann. Yes corporate magazines still suck and there is no greater proof than two things, this week’s show art and Rolling Stone magazine with their current list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of ALL TIME”. I did so much raving and ranting on the show that I completely forgot to mention that they bumped Glen Buxton off their list this time around after cracking the bottom 10 last time. I talk enough on this episode so cutting to the chase this is a short list of players that you will not find on the Rolling Stone BS list. If you somehow subscribe to Rolling Stone then by all means PLEASE cancel it and use what you have remaining as an emergency wipe.

Episode 19: MuppeTENtional

New Episodes

Time to eat your drums…Inspired by the latest Muppets movie and as a theme request from listener and friend of CNJRadio Mr. Adam Arthur. My first musical inspiration in this world was The Muppets led by Jim Henson, Frank Oz and company. They still to this day hold a special place in my heart so here is my tribute to them. This will be a rare time on the show where it isn’t incredibly ‘ROCK’ and I hope you will indulge me here when I do this on occasion. I will remind you that you do have a voice on this show so let me know how you feel. Special thanks to Adam once again for sending me all of the Muppet clips, they were awesome.

Episodes 16-18: Gil-Logan’s Island [Bang Your Head] (Part 1)

New Episodes

The long awaited heavy metal focus episode. Just like the genre itself, we do it big here and to an excessive and decadent degree because I am joined by one of my best friends of all time, Logan. What started out as a regular episode ended up being a 3 hour plus roundtable and oh yeah we still manage to play ten songs, NO MORE!……NO LESS! I know that a section of you that listen are not big heavy metal fans but this show IS for you. Obviously if you are a fan, you should enjoy this episode immensely but this is what I like to call the handshake into heavy metal (hornshake?) and this is what I believe to be the Top 10 icons of heavy metal. Myself and Logan talk in length about what these bands mean to heavy metal and to us as people. Logan even manages to brings in a few alternate selections for those of you that are looking to take some of the more extreme next steps. I hope you enjoy this episode at even a fraction of how much I enjoyed making this one. Let me know what you think about me doing this show with the occasional special guest if you have an opinion. Afterwards, use the link directly below this and tell Logan whether or not you want him to do a ‘Birth, School, Metal, Death’ show for all of you on a regular basis. *Updated* Ok, so I get this email and site comment from friend and listener Steven (thanks Steven!) that he can’t hear the songs on Episode 16. Naturally, this concerned me so I immediately checked the podcast posting in my library and lo and behold NO SONGS! After panic mode set in I decided to just go back and retrieve the whole show, break it up into 2 parts and repost it as such. So there you go, because the technical gods just weren’t metal enough to handle a 3 hour and 20 minute show, and because I have to keep each file consistent in naming them alright blah blah blah long story long. Just enjoy the shows and know that I am not trying to pad my number of episodes, this is just the only way I could do it. Thanks for understanding and for listening and know that I appreciate you all. ENJOY THE SHOWS!

Perhaps I missed a song (or band) you may think I may not be aware of. As always, I would love to know what your favorite or least favorite songs were from each episode. In addition you can request a theme for a future episode or just send good ol’ hate mail.

Current listening for the week:
Everything from 2011 all over again, gearing up for the end of the year list.

Episode 15: None More Black

New Episodes

Songs about the retail phenomenon that is ‘Black Friday’. If you’re standing in line for the big sales this year than please do it here with your friend Joey here at Rock Strikes Ten. Better yet you can ask for my Amazon profile name and buy me something from my wish list. I’m just kidding……maybe. Anyway, enjoy this show and I will be back in a few days with hopefully that special episode I keep promising.

Episode 14: Thank You Fallistenin

New Episodes

Time to give thanks to the important things which include you the listener. On this episode, I play ten songs that include the word ‘Thanks’ (with one legitimate exception) in celebration of Thanksgiving week. Digest this one quick and try not to get too sleepy afterwards because the next one will be up before Friday! Currently I am having an issue with iTunes deleting the oldest episodes as I put these up so hopefully I can figure out what is going on with that soon. Until then, make sure you are subscribed and don’t miss a single episode friends!

Episode 13: The Replacement Covers

New Episodes

Cover songs that I like better than the original. I am sure some of you will disagree as to what some of my choices are but who knows? If you keep score then feel free to send me your score sheet and let me know how well our tastes jive. That is pretty much it besides here is hoping you didn’t notice just how much pain my voice was in this time around on this one or the previous one. Coming up on the next couple of shows is revolving around Thanksgiving week. What that means? stay tuned!
