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!

Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet
On this episode, we review an album that causes one of us to yell in a cranky grumpy way (for some of it). If you want “schooling”, MAYBE this episode is for you (unless you’re a fan of the album). Our tracks of the week are Cinderella’s “ Somebody Save Me” and Bulletboys “Smooth Up In Ya.” We conclude with Lee’s song, “It Seems.” Have fun listening!

Our tracks of the week are The Cars’ “All Mixed Up”, Polyrock’s “Love Song” and we close with Lee’s song “(You Decided To) Chase Me.” Enjoy the screaming… um… the review.

Our tracks of the week are Slash (with Ian Astbury) “Ghost”, Graham Parker’s “Nuthins Gonna Pull Us Apart” and we close with Lee’s song “Deep Dive” (which is a parody of another group). Take care and ROCK ON!

Foreigner
On this episode, we talk about the debut album of a group and we also say things to each other that are not nice. It’s a grumpy episode (for one of us) but we part as friends so… la dee da. Our tracks of the week are Bad Company’s “Youngblood”, Lou Gramm’s “Just Between You And Me” and we close with Lee’s song “Fart Whistle” (co-written with Glen Hansford). Take care and cheers!#foreigner
