D and D Classic Rock and Roll Chat (A Spotify and Anchor Exclusive Podcast)

It came in a flash, another podcast with special guest Wifey, came out of nowhere. Well, ok...if the Foo Fighters are involved, her presence is always a possibility. We dive into our review of this new album and what some people are calling a comeback album (after Taylor Hawkins tragic passing). The Foo Fighters also use this chapter to express unapologetic grief with “But Here We Are”. In reality, were the Foo Fighters out of the public eye very long in the grand picture of rock history. #foofighters #buthereweare #ddclassicrock #davegrohl #podcast

The Dude Dives into another 6-Pack of Vaulted Pleasures. Kicking it strange with this Bad Company, yet not unforgettable with Poison, and we know the Rolling Stones simply can't forget. So let's roll on another dive with these great artists and more!!! #ddclassicrock #podcast #rockandroll #rockon

Bryan Adams, while not in the main spotlight these days, finds many ways to keep busy. Including musically, releasing several albums over the last decade. This latest release is a post-pandemic appreciation album in many ways, touching base on life, love, and looking forward. It gives a taste of the classic Bryan Adams sound, yet still sticks to the rhythms that have been more common on a Bryan Adams record over the past decade or so. #ddclassicrock #bryanadams #sohappyithurts #podcast #rockandroll #rockon

The Dude Dives into another 6-Pack of Vaulted Pleasures. Lets keep some loving vibes going with Journey, Collins Genesis shows us their evolution, and lets take the night away with Van Halen.

The Black Crowes must have been reading The Dude and The Dog's mind when they decided to do the 50-Year Flashback to 1972. Ok, maybe not, but what resulted in The Black Crowes trip back to '72 was an absolute blast of a ride, if even for a short trip. There is one song from '72 The Black Crowes chose to cover, that The Dude feels will make the song rise to stardom once again! #ddclassicrock #podcast #rockandroll #rockon #blackcrowes #theblackcrowes

Tears for Fears is one of the most iconic rock pop bands and through trials and tragedy, they've returned full force with their newest album "The Tipping Point" (2022)!!! They haven't lost their recognizable sound or performance, while delivering an album that may utilize personal experiences more than all of their prior releases. How does it hold up compared to the rest of the Tears For Fears library...fear not, as The Dude and Dog dive into this during our chat and review. #ddclassicrock #podcast #rockandroll #rockon #tearsforfears 

The Dude and The Dog are back!!! This time to review Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs second album "External Combustion" (2022) !!! Mike Campbell's once side project band releases their second jamming album, following their initial release "Wreckless Abandon" back in 2020. Two years later the band slightly tweaked their name to include their front man and unlike the first album being released with a whisper due to the pandemic, this second album released with a supporting tour and media play. In a era where new age music is showing signs that it's wearing on the public, Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs show us there are still bands out here that simply just want to rock and roll! #ddclassicrock #podcast #rockandroll #rockon #mikecampbell #thedirtyknobs #mikecampbellandthedirtyknobs

The Dude and the Dog look back at 50 Years since the year of music that was 1972! Was the best music ever made from the 70s??? It's definitely in the discussion. 1972 had it's share of great releases from Steely Dan, David Bowie, Black Sabbath, Santana, and more! #ddclassicrock #rockon #podcast #rockandroll #1972

The Dude Dives into another 6-Pack of Vaulted Pleasures. Taking you on another ride by rocket or magic carpet, we look at some time in LA, head further up the road with The Boss, and those facts of life sneak in along the way thanks to Squier. So lets turn the page to another Dude Dives! #ddclassicrock #podcast #rockandroll #rockon

The Dude Dives into another 6-Pack of Vaulted Pleasures. This ride takes us to some discussion of Bad Company getting a mobile recording they later laid down to track, The Police on a song about love that people took for a polar-opposite meaning depending on their mindset, be careful how you wake up with ZZTop, and many more! #ddclassicrock #podcast

The Dude and The Dog look back at 30 years since Grunge made it's mainstream presence felt. Chatting from a classic rock perspective, we look into how bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, STP, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam, who were thought as a fad at the time, ended up becoming part in the roadmap of Rock and Roll History! So join just for our Part 1 into this look back at the Grunge movement. #ddclassicrock #grunge #grungethirtyyears

The Dude has been searching for a live Steve Miller Band recording to match his experiences seeing them in concert. Well out of a fortunate happenstance Steve Miller unarchived this beauty and the result is a live experience that captures the band's true essence in front of an audience. Breaking Ground Live 1977 catches the groove of the band right in-between their biggest hits. So as Steve Miller would say, enjoy you cool cats! #stevemillerband #ddclassicrock #stevemillerlive 

Styx's newest album gives great classic rock sound with some modern drama. Styx follows up their last concept album, with what is in many ways another concept album. Except instead of dealing with space, this time they tackle society. The album gives a good mix of dark, serious, light, and positive tones throughout. While the singles don't immediately identify themselves, the album works great as a whole piece. Also, we give a shout out to the rock and roll community at the end of this podcast episode regarding the passing of Dusty Hill of ZZTop...gone, but not forgotten. #styx #crashofthecrown #ddclassicrock #zztop #dustyhill

In this 6-Pack, The Dude had tracks pop-up and it led to addressing songs that either related to a nasty Ex or Exes, including roads traveled during or between those Exes. As we all have a past or road traveled until we find that special one as The Dude finally did some years ago now. So enjoy this 6-Pack with artists the likes of AC/DC, The Cars, and Hall & Oats. #ddclassicrock 

After reviewing Cheap Trick's newest album release in recent months, The Dude had to Dive into Cheap Trick's 2017 release "We're All Alright", as this band has quite possibly recorded some of their best music within this last decade. Pretty impressive considering this release at the time was their 18th studio album. #cheaptrick #ddclassicrock #wereallalright

The Dude this time in his 6-Pack, dives into songs about simplicity, changes, dependence, and a great movie tune. So enjoy the pack that has some Aerosmith, Jackson Browne, Bob Seger, and others sprinkled in. #ddclassicrock #podcast

While many tracks from this Dave Matthews Band album made light before it's 2018 release, Come Tomorrow still offers enough surprises and the usual DMB variety fans have come to expect. Many of these tracks work on the studio cuts and live for what is ultimately at their core a jam band. #davematthewsband #ddclassicrock #podcast

The Dude kicks off a new segment called "6-Pack of Vaulted Pleasures". Here The Dude focuses on songs that have popped into his head for a variety of reasons. Everything from it's just been a long time since The Dude has heard it and wanted to share, to personal influences behind the songs (that may have nothing to do with the actual song meaning), or fun facts that popped into The Dude's head about the material or the artist. Enjoy this kick-off of the 6-Pack, which includes some sightings of Don Henley, (somewhat) Genesis, and Stevie Nicks to name a few. #ddclassicrock 

The Dude and The Dog review Alice Cooper's latest album "Detroit Stories" another inspired album off the cusp of 2020 and a gem in the Alice Cooper Collection. The album offers a bit of several musical genres as only A.C. can tackle them along with a plethora of guest musicians, many with origins from the Detroit Scene. #ddclassicrock #alicecooper #detroitstories #podcast
