Yes you only had to wait a week for another brand new episode of Rock Strikes Ten. Seriously this is going to be a weekly thing so get used to it, expect it and help spread the word. This being the third episode you will be treated to my ten favorite power trios of all time.

Stuff I forgot to say on the show: In addition to the bands I mentioned at the top of the show who were disqualified from the list, Motorhead is not on this episode either. The reason being is while they are a bonafide power trio NOW, they have not been for their entire career. Hey, I had to really nitpick to get this down to ten and of course the mighty Lemmy and co. will be on future upcoming episodes for sure I can guarantee you that.

I think I came up with a good selection of tunes here for you so no sense in waiting around. GO LISTEN TO IT ALREADY!

Well just think of the first episode as the pilot. Now we’re back and my voice is a little deeper and my hair is a little longer and it’s time to strike……..back. Anyway this episode I focus on the bands who stepped up and proved to the world that they had more than one good album in them.  I hope you like the show and perhaps pick up a few of these records because these are some of my favorites of all time.  Coming soon to the site I will have way easy buy links to use as well as new (and old) album reviews and perhaps even a daily commentary.  The next episode will be focusing on power trios and I am really excited about it because I found some great tracks by these mostly known trios.  I will keep you posted on all of these things and until then….. enjoy the show!

Records I’m enjoying right now

Anthrax – Worship Music

Alice Cooper – Welcome 2 My Nightmare

Well it is FINALLY here!

All of my life I have wanted my very own music radio show and now it is a reality.  So the episode is done, the feed is up and iTunes has given me the green light as well.  Since I am counting on giving you a great first impression, I am going to share with you bands that made just that with their first records.  I found that nailing down my all-time Top 10 debut albums was rather difficult so instead I made a personal definitive list of my favorite tracks 1 through 10 from debut albums ever.  I guess I was trying to create my perfect debut album if you will.  I had a lot of fun doing it so I hope you have fun listening to it.  The only thing left is for you (that’s right, YOU!) to do a few things in order to come along this journey with me.  Follow these links below to get started on the first episode.

Hello and welcome to the official website of the Rock Strikes Ten show!  The site is still under construction but it will soon be a one-stop interactive site for the show which I hope becomes a daily part of your web activity so bookmark now!  Alright so what I can tell you so far is that the first show should be up around a week or so.  We (being myself and Chris) still need to create the feed and send it along to iTunes.  Once that is done it will be full on promoting time and most importantly music to be enjoyed by all that listen.

What is the show?  It’s always ten songs. no more. no less

The first episode is already recorded and it focuses on great debut albums.  It was very difficult for me to nail down my top 10 favorite debut albums ever so I chose a different route.  I decided to pick my favorite Tracks 1 through 10 as the songs represented.  For example, if I thought my favorite ‘Track 2′ from a debut album was “All I’ve Got To Do” by the Beatles then that will be the 2nd song I play on the show.  Got it?

Future show themes

Episode 2: The 2nd album was better aka Sophomore Success

Episode 3: Power Trios

Episode 4: Rock & Roll Pioneers (tentative)

So if you have a suggestion for a Rock Strikes Ten list you want to hear then send one to me at joey@cnjradio.com.  Get in on the ground and be a friend.

That’s all I got for now so keep checking back regularly!

I’m off to make the Facebook Page, Twitter and all of that Jazz.

’til then…..
