For episode 9, we're going to be focusing on a band that you might not be very familiar with. We're talking about Y & T, who has existed for nearly four decades, released a plethora of albums, toured the world with some of the biggest names in rock, and continues to tour and make music to this day. If you aren't familiar with them, this is your chance to take a crash course and learn what makes so many current rock bands hail Y & T as the best. Get ready for the Hurricane!

Long ago in an age undreamed of, a man named Ronnie James Dio made himself known to the world. No one knows where he came from, but of one thing we are certain. Dio wasn't born to a woman, and there is no record of his youth. Rather, he seems to have been formed from the energy of pure Rock by the elders of N'huren-On-High. N'huren-On-High was a group of mages, and their name roughly translates into English as ELF. As the front man of this group, he achieved moderate success, but was mainly noticed by another mage, Ritchie Blackmore, who joined the ranks of N'huren-On-High, or ELF, then led the group forth into uncharted territory under the name RAINBOW. For several years, Rainbow killed giants, trolls, elder gods, and generally rocked the land. But all was not well in the land of Rainbow, and soon Lord Dio would face his next challenge, that as the leader of Black Sabbath.

Witness, o mortals, the terrible might of Hoochie Koochie Lady! Cower at the madness of Stargazer! Tremor with fear at the recounting of the tale of ghosts in the studio, both man and bovine! Hear with both your ears and your soul as one of your hosts imparts the wisdoms endowed upon him by Lord Dio himself in a Vermont Mall! Quake with awe at the tales of douche-baggery concerning guitarists with large, beastly egos! And bow to the mind shattering revelations of a man, hoisted above a stage, desperately trying to defecate on a drummer!

For as surely as Dio rocked all who have heard his silver voice, he has conquered the known world of rock, and all before he was forty. But know, o listener, that Dio would go on to much more greatness. Dio would soar like a phoenix on wings of fire, and dominate the 80s...but THAT....that is a story for another episode...

Cinderella ain't just a bedtime story, boys and girls. It's also a fantastic band from Philadelphia who rocked the 80s and well into the 90s. When they stopped making music, we realized that you Don't Know What You Got Till It's Gone. They are our featured band this week, and we follow it up with some Metal of another kind...Skrapp Mettle, a naughty one album wonder consisting of lead singer Spunk, and band members Nasty Gerbil, Snuff Buzzsaw, Beef Injektor, and Scrotum Pounder! This is not one for the faint of heart.

Shake me all night!

For episode 5, we travel to Massachusetts...BOSTON, to be exact, as we discuss the great classic rock band Boston.

Be there for the incendiary comments made about Boston member Tom Sholz. Witness the majesty of a space ship that is also a guitar. And learn the secret name of Tom Sholz's desert island where he makes his coconut amps.

Then we spotlight a Norwegian rock band keeping the spirit of the 80s alive when we discuss Wig Wam, the best band you've never heard of.

Don't let "the man" (aka Tom Sholz) stop you from listening to the awesomeness contained within this episode!

Episode 4 is here, and the Ratt's out of the cellar for our in depth look at the music of...you guessed it, Ratt!

You think you're tough, but this band will have you coming back for more. We also spotlight a hidden gem from a band called Endeverafter with our discussion of their 2007 album Kiss or Kill.
