In the early daze of t…

For the focus of this week's episode, see the attached guitar meme from @SongStoriesRewind which casts a wide net, and sparks the discussion of axes and their masters.

From his family roots to his dual career paths, taken simultaneously, Markus and Ray take the ride with you, musically, and historically! From London to L.A., we talk about his musical life, and all the twists and turns it took. Due to the risk of a 2+ hourlong episode, much of Rod Stewart's personal story is pretty much left out. So, it's football…

Sometimes when you do interviews, the discussion expands beyond the movie or book the subject came to promote. That's what happened when Markus & Ray talked with author Steven Gaines. But Gaines isn't just any Rock author, having been Alice Cooper's biographer & regular golf partner, writing books and penning columns, and interviewing all of The Be…

Even if your podcast guest is an old friend, you never know what might come up, or what you might learn!

When the Imbalanced Boys were 25 episodes into this podcast, they made the move to Pantheon!

To understand the story of Joy Division, and how they became New Order requires some patience, and much more.
