Episode 44 of Rock and Roll for Grownups delivers another powerful mix of timeless music and fascinating stories from the icons who made it. Denny Somach opens with Cinnamon Girl by Neil Young, Modern Love by David Bowie, and Evil Ways by Santana—three songs that define distinct eras of rock. From there, the show journeys through Ride My See-Saw by The Moody Blues, All Along the Watchtower by Dave Mason, and Easy Livin’ by Uriah Heep, blending history, emotion, and energy.
Listeners also get an exclusive segment featuring Freddie Mercury discussing the songwriting process behind Radio Ga Ga, followed by Video Killed the Radio Star—the very first video to ever air on MTV. Denny continues with tracks from Argent, Rush, Stealers Wheel, and Yes, and closes the show with Badfinger’s Day After Day and Joe Cocker’s Delta Lady. Every story and song connects to the heart of what keeps classic rock alive: passion, creativity, and timeless sound.
