There's no question in the mind of any music fan that Tony Iommi is one of the true, unadulterated Godfathers of Heavy Metal - or even heavy music for that matter.

TVS What's In MY Queue? Ep. 1: Record Store Day

That Vinyl Show is fueled by Mr. Motley's ever-growing and wildly expansive record collection and in his new miniseries, "What's In My Queue?", Motley...
-
Episode 20: The Misfits - Static Age (1978/1996)
Though fully recorded in 1978, this album was thought essentially lost into the Punk Rock ether for almost 20 years before being finally released in its entirety in 1996. Static Age has a storied and argued history with multiple different versions of multiple different songs that has come under...
-
TVS Bandstand: Ep. 1 - The Dead Boys
On the surface, Punk Rock started out as a backlash against the “Everything is A-Ok and Groovy!” attitude of the Hippies of the 1960s. To the teenagers and children of the 1970s, everything was definitely not okay. Between Vietnam, economic issues, the disdain for the studio polished and...
-
Episode 19: Thin Lizzy - Chinatown (1980)
If an alien came down to Earth having no idea of our culture and asked, “What is Rock and Roll?”, surely Thin Lizzy should (and probably would) be one of the first bands we show them.

Episode 17: The Replacements - Tim (1985)

-
Episode 16: Guns n' Roses - "The Spaghetti Incident?" (1993)
Guns n’ Roses - One of the biggest, loudest, wildest, and most commercially successful Rock and Roll acts ever to grace a stage.

-
Episode 15: Black Sabbath - Headless Cross (1989)
Riding on the coattails of the incredible record that was Eternal Idol, Black Sabbath teamed up with IRS Records and Rock and Roll drumming legend Cozy Powell and put out some of their most melodic and strongest songs to date. In 1989 the Rock and Roll and Heavy Metal landscapes were drastically...
-
Episode 14: Hank Mobley - Workout (1962)
While it is an iconic Jazz record, specifically defining the Hard Bop era, Workout often gets lost in the ether of Jazz. Allmusic’s Scott Yanow defined Workout as of the “17 Essential Hard Bop Recordings” and leans into the heart of Jazz in just 7 tracks. CJ & Motley cool it down with Hank…

Episode 13: Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (1994)

-
Episode 10: Beastie Boys - Paul’s Boutique (1989)
A black sheep of its time, Paul’s Boutique would go on to be #156 of Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums of All Time”.

-
Episode 9: The Clash - Give ‘Em Enough Rope (1978)

Without a doubt, Run D.M.C. sit atop the Mount Rushmore of Hip-Hop as one of the Founding Fathers of Style. But, even groups like The Run can produce some albums that get fatally overlooked. Sit down with CJ & Motley as they diessect the 1988 record Tougher Than Leather.
