  • A great way to learn new things about old bands

    James is a gifted DJ and educator. I’d love to see him present these tracks live. It’s Classic Rock without the cliche. It’s humor and heavy metal mixed. You’ll raise your first to man one minute and bring tears of joy to your cheek the next. Hell yeah.

    Eddie, BGMC.
