  • A fantastic rock podcast!

    These guys go deep on albums I loved growing up and get cool guests from bands I still listen to daily. The Wolf and Action Jackson have a great back and forth and I can’t wait to hear what they’ll talk about each week. From a 40 year old classic record one week to a live concert review the next and interviews with legends, I try not to miss it. And their monthly First Concert Memories show is always fun!

  • Just the kind of podcast I like

    One of my top music podcasts! These guys are right in the wheelhouse of the music I love and their mix of album reviews, concert reviews, and interviews are a great combination. In addition, the whole American-English contrast adds more variety to the entire experience. Highly recommended!

  • Let me say how good this podcast site is..

    .. first of all, both the Wolf and Action are clearly wide-eyed & genuine fans of ROCK, in all its forms. They tackle all their topics with a winning mix of devotion and enthusiasm, plus the 10,000 hours of plain, old-fashioned LOVE of music.

    Not forgetting their occasional use of the old ‘squint-eye’ - great for lightening the mood, and reminding the listener that Wolf and Action are far enough down the road that they can enjoy & embrace their teenage rookie years.

    Although I’m a Brit, I still ... more

First Concert Memories #24: Rush with Brad Page of I'm In Love With That Song Podcast
Q: What are your thoughts on Geddy and Alex potentially touring again? Would you go see that?

First Concert Memories #24: Rush with Brad Page of I'm In Love With That Song Podcast
Q: Now, we have the biggest disappointment question, and usually it's that the show ended. For you, it was, I'm sorry I didn't get to see them in May when I was supposed to.
However, you might not have seen Limelight and Tom Sawyer had that happened. So that was the trade-off. And to be honest, I'm not sure I would have changed that.
First Concert Memories #24: Rush with Brad Page of I'm In Love With That Song Podcast
Q: So how did you get into Rush, though? I mean, you went with a whole group of friends. It's just every, you know, you had a crew of people, and Rush just kind of hit you guys in the right spot.
We were all musicians, and my friend whose father drove us down was a drummer who was the first one to get into Rush. I was playing bass but became a diehard fan by the time Permanent Waves came out.
