Welcome to the Show
Free Form Rock Podcast
Welcome to the wild world of the Free Form Rock Podcast, where we embrace every riff, solo, and scandalous hairdo from the glorious era of rock! If you’re a purist, a metal elitist who believes that any sound that isn’t an 8-minute guitar solo is akin to sacrilege, then this is your warning: you might want to turn down the volume and stick to your ‘perfect’ playlist filled with only the heaviest and most obscure bands that your no-caffeine diet can handle. Here, we celebrate everything from shaking your head to classic rock anthems to moshing like a maniac at a metal concert! We love all the forms of rock—classic, metal, and everything in between. So, if your idea of a good time is debating over which band had the best leather pants, you’re in for quite the ride! Sit back, relax, and remember: we don’t take ourselves too seriously—because if we did, we’d be stuck in the ‘70s, arguing over whether Led Zeppelin was better than Black Sabbath while wearing questionable platform shoes. Join us as we rock out the way rock was meant to be—loud, unapologetic, and just a little ridiculous! Tune in, turn it up, and let’s jam through the delightful chaos of our favorite tunes together!

Spooky Tooth - Ceremony
In this episode, we are joined by Charles Traynor to review an album by an English progressive rock band who collaborated with a French avant-garde purveyor of what could be called Musique concrète or experimentalism.

Our tracks of the week are, Jill Kroesen's "I Am Not Seeing That You Are Here", Ghost's "Darkness At The Heart Of My Love" and Pink Floyd's "Breathe." We conclude with Lee's song "7th Experimental Piece." Have a happy listen! Cheers!

The Baby's - Union Jacks
In this episode, we review an album that has differing opinions among the reviewers. We are joined by Charles Traynor to review an album that is either good or not, depending on one's interpretation. But, it is obscure and for that reason it's worth reviewing. Our tracks of the week are, Graeme Edge Band's "Bareback Rider", John Waite's "Change" and Warlock's "All We Are Is One Of Them." We conclude with Lee's song "Piece No. 9 For String Quartet." Take care everyone and happy listening!
