  • 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

UAWIL #279: Suzi Quatro Interview
Q: You have a lot of hits, but how do you work in the new material with the classics in a live show?

UAWIL #270: The Firm - Mean Business

It's a pretty good song. Very well composed, very well produced.

Writing solo is unhinged and untethered; there's no one to answer to, and I focus on personal pieces that matter to me.

Q: What was it like on stage?
It was absolutely electric everywhere we went.
