Classic Guitar Rock

On August 1, 1981 a brand new cable network launched that would have a huge impact on the music industry. In this episode we will discuss the early days of MTV and the far reaching effects it had on rock music. We also have a laugh at Rolling Stone's hysterical "Top 500 Songs of All Time" list.

On this episode we will discuss one conspiracy that popped up several years after their breakup and disappeared just as quickly. Jeremy will also share five of his "guilty pleasure" artists - the ones he could never admit to liking in the company of his headbanging friends.... this is gonna be just like an Oprah episode!

Ozzy's debut album "Blizzard of Ozz" is considered one of the best Heavy Metal albums of all time - but it was an important album not just because of the music. It came at a crucial time for Ozzy Osbourne who had just been fired from Black Sabbath and was still trying to find his way as a solo artist. In this episode of the CGR podcast we are joined by our Black Sabbath subject matter experts, John and Darin, from "Into the Void - A Black Sabbath Podcast". We talk about the album, the formation of the band "Blizzard of Ozz" and the early days of Ozzy's solo career.
