The Hank in Chains Show
Episode #0028 (11/25/2009)

This week on The Hank in Chains Show, we celebrate Thanksgiving by featuring The Beatles 1965 classic record Rubber Soul. While it did not feature any of the Fab Four’s well-known hits, many critics and historians as not only one of the band’s best albums, but one of the greatest ever released by anyone in the history of music. Seen by many as the band’s transition record between their Beatlemania pop days and their late 60s experimental rock and roll gold, it is a pure sonic pleasure. Enjoy a musical feast, with all the trimmings, on Flapdaddy.com!

Other music this week from: Bob Dylan, Fats Domino, Jordan Zevon, Omar and the Howlers, James Scott Bullard, Hank Williams, Tom Petty, Little Richard, Nirvana, Robbie Fulks, The White Stripes, and Howlin Wolf.

Episode #0027 (11/18/2009)

This week’s episode of The Hank in Chains Show features Alice in Chains‘ first new album in over 13 years, “Black Gives Way to Blue”. Marred by addiction and the eventual tragic death of founding lead vocalist Layne Staley of 2002, only a few years ago no one ever assumed we’d ever hear from Alice in Chains again. However, after a few special reunion shows, guitarist Jerry Cantrell, bassist Mike Inez, and drummer Sean Kinney got the itch to bring the band back. They recruited former Comes with the Fall vocalist William DuVall to recreate Alice in Chains’ outstanding harmony vocals. People doubted the band, especially DuVall, but “Black Gives Way to Blue” has proven the critics wrong in a big way.

Other music this week from: The Drive-By Truckers, Warren Zevon, Hank Williams III, The Reverend Horton Heat, Eleven Hundred Springs, Gram Parsons, George Harrison, The Kinks, Stone Temple Pilots, Songs from the Road Band, The Black Keys, and Jimi Hendrix.

On July 1st, The Hank in Chains Show will feature BR549 frontman Chuck Mead‘s first solo album Journeyman’s Wager. While there are hints of BR549 in spots, the Ray Kennedy produced album finds Mead exploring his many musical influences. A little CCR here, a little Beatles there, and even a little Springsteen. Yet, the album is a cohesive rockin’ country force, and a record of the year contender.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: Bruce Springsteen, Eric Clapton, Lucky Tubb, Muddy Waters, The .357 String Band, Louis Jordan, Hank Williams III, Songs from the Road Band, Warren Zevon, The Rolling Stones, The Hackensaw Boys, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Cornpone.

Episode 17 of The Hank in Chains Show will feature the music of Soundgarden. When grunge broke into mainstream radio in the early 1990s, Soundgarden was certainly one of the best bands of the scene. Inspired equally by both Led Zeppelin and heavy metal, they were led by one of the greatest frontmen in rock and roll history, Chris Cornell. Mr. Ecks and Jared will present and discuss songs from one of the most powerful rock bands of the past thirty years.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: Black Label Society, Gram Parsons, O’Death, The Beatles, Crazy Joe and His Mad River Outlaws, Double Eagle Standard, BB King, The Trainwreks, Creech Holler, Ryan Adams, The North Mississippi Allstars, and our favorite band, The Sons of Perdition.

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.
