The Story of Rock and Roll: S6E50

S6E50 went out live on Rebel Rock Radio at 19h00 on 14 Dec 2023.  People are winding down now, it has been a long tough year for most, so thanks very much for the support for Season 6 of TSORR and I wish you all an awesome festive season.   The Immortals Track tonight was something different.  Last week we played a track by Roger Kaye.  Roger was a very good friend of mine; I met him at high school and he was one of the most talented musicians I have ever known.  He was a multi-instrumentalist and did some amazing stuff.  All this can be found in my book The Story of Rock and Roll so I won’t go into any detail, but I mentioned a track he did for his father.  It is Prelude in Dm Symphony no 40 in Gm (K550), 1st movement Molto Allegro.  Music written by Mozart and interpreted by Roger on electric guitar.  He worked it all out instrument by instrument and the results are amazing.  This is a home recording that took him a few months to do.   The Diabolical Challenge featured 4 albums from 1999:Red Hot Chili Peppers – CalifornicationBlink 182 – Enema of the StateLive – The Distance to HereBuckcherry – Buckcherry Artists featured: Boston, Ratt, Dio, Steel Panther, ZZ Top, The Screaming Jets, Rose Tattoo, The Dead Daisies, Kid Rock, Metallica, Taylor Road, ACDC, Cold Chisel, Led Zeppelin, Greta Van Fleet, Rush, Threshold, The Stranglers, The Clash, Pixies, Phil Campbell & the Bastard Sons, Motörhead, Scorpions, Accept, Roger Kaye, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, LIVE, Blink 182, Buckcherry, Jelusick, Skid Row, Halestorm, The Pretty Reckless, Piet Botha & Jack Hammer, The Burning, Temple of the DogThe Story of Rock and Roll.  TSORR - Your one-stop shop for Rock
