Sports and Songs Podcast - Songs Edition (March)

This month on Sports and Songs, Dan and Andy crank up the volume and take a deep dive into the 1989 self-titled debut album from Badlands. Joining the show is special guest TJ from Bizon Bitz on the Beer Belly Sports Radio Network, bringing his thoughts on one of the most underrated hard rock records of the late ‘80s. The guys break down the bluesy, heavy sound that helped Badlands stand out during the peak of the hair metal era, powered by the incredible guitar work of Jake E. Lee and the unmistakable vocals of Ray Gillen. Dan, Andy, and TJ go track-by-track through highlights like “High Wire,” “Dreams in the Dark,” and “Winter’s Call,” discussing the band’s legacy, why the album still holds up today, and how it fits into the rock landscape of 1989. As always, the conversation blends music history, personal memories, and a little sports talk along the way—because on Sports and Songs, everything eventually comes back to the game. #SportsAndSongs #Badlands #JakeELee #RayGillen #1989Rock #ClassicRock #HardRock #AlbumReview #BeerBellySports #BBSRN #BizonBitz #Podcast #MusicPodcast #RockHistoryBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beer-belly-sports-radio-network--5080802/support.
