Episode 7 of The Hank in Chains Show will feature the music of rock and roll legend Chuck Berry. Even though Jim Crow was still the law of the land in the south, Berry’s vocal and guitar talent helped him break through racial barriers, and he became a hero to white and black audiences alike as he established his legacy as one of the architects of rock and roll. Eric Morningstar joins me as we look at Berry’s music, what inspired his music, and his influence on other legendary artists that considered him a hero. Oh… we also have a special announcement from Mr. Ecks, commentary, and more outstanding music from across genres.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Young, Brent Amaker and the Rodeo, George Jones, The Violent Femmes, The White Stripes, Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, and The Wallflowers.

Episode 6 of The Hank in Chains Show will feature the music of The Father of Country Music, Jimmie Rodgers. During only a six-year recording career, cut short tragically due to his death from tuberculosis. Rodgers still managed to write and record dozens of incredible songs in a style that combined folk, blues, jazz, and of course… the yodel. Eric Morningstar joins me as we discuss The Singing Brakeman’s music… songs that continue to inspire listeners eight decades after his recording career began.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: The Band, Soundgarden, Buck Owens, Joey Allcorn, Paul McCartney, Jordan Zevon, Old Crow Medicine Show, Queen, and Cornpone.

(07/09/2008) Episode #0004

Episode 4 of The Hank in Chains Show will feature the music of one of the 90s greatest rock bands, Alice in Chains. The band, led by lead vocalist Layne Staley and guitarist Jerry Cantrell, delivered some of the hardest (and softest), darkest, and most poetic songs in the history of rock and roll. Eric Morningstar joins me as we discuss the band and take listeners down the depressing, yet irresistible road that is their music.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: Hank Williams III, The Who, North Mississippi Allstars, BR549, Justin Townes Earle, George Harrison, Fats Domino, and Black Sabbath.

The Hank in Chains Show (06/25/2008)
Episode #0002

Episode 2 of The Hank in Chains Show includes not only great music and commentary, but, with the help of my co-host and psychology-genius brother Eric Morningstar, an in-depth look at the music of Warren Zevon. A unique singer-songwriter, Zevon wrote devilishly evil, funny, and yet intelligent lyrics that revealed a complex, compelling soul. A moralist in cynic’s clothing according to Springsteen, Zevon was never understood by the majority of mainstream music listeners. And yet, for those of you who aren’t afraid to look deeper into an artist’s words, appreciate dark humor, and simply love great rock and roll… this week’s show will be a must-listen event. Artists/Bands on this week’s show include: Nirvana, John Lennon, George Harrison, Dollar Store, Jason Isbell, Chuck Berry, Dwight Yoakam, Jakob Dylan, Those Poor Bastards, Jerry Cantrell, and Jimi Hendrix.
