This episode of the CGR podcast is from our first ever live stream! It was a complete disaster! Well, it wasn't that bad.... but here it is, warts and all! Jeremy and John are joined by their friend Dave who reviews a recent Journey concert and then the guys jump into a lively discussion about Judas Priest's quirky and somewhat polarizing 1981 album, "Point of Entry". This episode is like that gruesome accident scene on the side of the freeway that you just can't help but watch!

Robin Trower is an extremely underrated guitarist! His 1974 album 'Bridge of Sighs' should be considered one of the classic guitar albums of all time!

Ratt was one of the key players in the LA hair metal scene of the 80s. But unlike many of the bands of that era they brought a high level of musicianship. They spent a short time at or near the top of the heap, but a number of things conspired against them leading to the demise of the original lineup by the late 80s. In this episode Jeremy and J.R. discuss the sites, sounds and smells of this hard working rock band!

The Cult came out of the UK's post-punk, alternative/goth scene in the early 80s. But by the mid 80s they were pumping out a unique sound that straddled the genres of alternative and hard rock - yielding them substantial success in the process. In this episode of the CGR podcast Jeremy is joined by his friend J.R. as they delve into the Cult's awesome 1989 album, "Sonic Temple".
