Every quote links to the moment in the episode.

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival ·1969

"This is Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Some great long riffy songs that you could really get into the groove on. This is the one I would sit and play along to."

School's Out

Alice Cooper ·1972

"School's Out was one of the greatest records of its time. It was so great because other than the music being great, what Alice did so beautifully was piss people off."

Down By the Jetty

Dr. Feelgood ·1975

"Dr. Feelgood, when you talk like that, you'll knock me out. This was their first album, Down By the Jetty, mono, hard man, hard music, elemental, brilliant on stage."

Sonic Boom Boy - EP

Westworld ·2024

"Anyway, I actually went away... it all kicked off when I was away and they ended up getting a great deal with RCA Records and they had hits. It was great. The whole caper worked; of course, I think they messed it up slightly because they re-recorded everything for the album, took far too long. This was a better version but great band, good fun."
