Between Ray and Markus, we have 50+ years of rock and roll radio experience and a thirst to know more! With your input we want to begin to balance the imbalanced. We look forward to connecting and

The Aerosmith Story, Part One

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll ·

2021/08/23

Markus and Ray like to take on a topic, discussing and covering it completely. Sometimes that requires taking it on in two parts. A band of the magnitude of Aerosmith is one such unit, with an amazingly long life as a band, all self-inflicted odds aside. In their case, it's a story of coming together as friends, rising...then crashing as brothers, before rising again! One of Rock's great comebacks! This week it's Part One, back to their roots, coming together in Boston before taking on the world

Sometimes in the course of this podcast, Ray and Markus have spoken with guests, not knowing what to expect. This Zoom conversation with David Sancious was one of those occasions!

Checking in (supremely chill) from his home in Hawaii, he told us about many things, including one of the guys' burning questions. Time to learn stuff about stuff you already know stuff about!

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll ·

2021/07/18

As you'll hear in this week's episode, everyone in New Orleans music, Jazz, as well as other musical forms, owe something (if not everything) to Buddy Bolden.

Lou And The Velvets!

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll ·

2021/07/04

July being Listener Episode Month, we present this episode, all about Lou Reed and The Velvet Unground, suggested by Robert McKenzie from the UK! The story of Lou Reed and The Velvet Underground comes together in stages, while the post-Lou Velvets ends quickly, badly. Reed's role in the band, and as a solo artist, is undeniably a dominant force in Rock in the 1970's, and beyond! It's a story that The Imbalanced Brothers have been looking forward to telling for quite some time. Listen to this cool

Tom Petty And Me (And Jon Scott And Us)

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll ·

2021/06/13

Indefatigable... That's Jon Scott, in a word. Dogged determination is a thing, despite what some people might say. Were it not for Jon's indefatigable, dogged determination, the world might not have heard Tom Petty or John Mellencamp, among others! His stories range wider than his obvious connection to Tom Petty, and the common thread throughout is a belief, in the music and the artist! Jon's book, Tom Petty And Me tells the tale of their long-time friendship, and its rocky start! If you love Petty,

Nothin' But A Good Time

The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll ·

2021/05/30

Hard Rock Exploded in the '80s in a way no label executive could have imagined. It was dirty, decadent and completely DIY. We recently spoke with Richard Bienstock and Tom Beaujour, authors of the NY Times Bestseller, Nothin' But A Good Time: The Uncensored History of The 80s Hard Rock Explosion. The book is exceptional and our conversation with Tom and Richard even better. Rock and Roll changed in the '80s because of the Sunset Strip and The Northeast Corridor from North Jersey to Philadelphia and
