Since 2009, I have interviewed some of my favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. From Classic Rock to Black Metal and all else in between, if I love an artist, I want to talk to them! I try to set a relaxed, ”living room” type of vibe and have a conversation and talk about anything.
On and Off the Records: Episode 03 - Robert Plant - Now and Zen
Happy New Year!!! To kick off 2026, we are covering Robert Plant's 1988 album Now and Zen. This time around, my good friend and co-conspirator on the Glacially Musical Pouredcast and Ghost Cult head man, Keefy Chachkes. As always, Keefy is a blast to work with, so having him be a part of this series was a no-brainer. We talked in depth about the Now and Zen album and waxed nostalgic as well. Dig on it and check it out.

Episode 129: Jay Jay French (Twisted Sister)
HAPPY NEW YEAR, Y'ALL! I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday! I'm sure everyone traded their jeans in for sweatpants for a week or so and that's cool. I'm just glad that you're here now so thanks!
In 1984, I was sitting at home one Friday night watching Friday Night Videos and the video for a song called "We're Not Gonna Take It" by Twisted Sister came on. I never heard one note from this band but that was the band that started my 40+ journey as a guitarist/songwriter.
That being said, it's not everyday that a kid gets to talk at length with his biggest hero but that day was MY day. We had so much fun talking and bonding over our love of guitars, music, and the Grateful Dead. Yes, you heard me right: The GRATEFUL DEAD!
It was so great talking to Jay Jay again and I hope you all enjoy this one!
