Hawk Rock Talk Episodes

The Definitive Unflappable List of Pink Floyd Records Every magazine, website or podcast has ranked the Pink Floyd catalog. Every one of those rankings is wrong. Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock separately ranked all 15 Pink Floyd studio albums, then entered a brutal negotiation to create one final, legally binding list. No live albums. Only the studio half of Ummagumma. No appeals. Along the way, Jason defends the Pink Floyd album he bought at a midnight release, Geoff attacks a beloved record al...

Hawk Rock Talk: Rock Autopsy - Classic Rock One Hit Wonders, Volume 2 Jason Gore and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock return to the classic rock morgue for another examination of the songs that radio refused to let die. But what exactly makes a classic rock one-hit wonder? A song does not necessarily have to dominate the Billboard charts. Sometimes one regional program director simply decides that “Never Been Any Reason” needs to play three times a week until the end of civilization. Jason and Ge...

Hawk Rock Talk Classic: Genesis Hawk Rock Summer continues on and this week we feature a Hawk Rock Talk Classic. Originally released October 21, 2022, it’s Hawk Rock Talk: GENESIS!

It is several completely different bands occupying the same school uniform. There is the strange British progressive...

Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock continue Hawk Rock Summer with Heavy Metal Mania, a brand-new Hawk Rock Talk where they each choose twelve heavy metal cassettes from a 1992 Columbia House ad. It’s one penny. It’s twelve cassettes. It’s a metal section that somehow includes Bon Jovi’s New Jersey, Pearl Jam’s Ten, and multiple records Columbia House may or may not have typed correctly. Jason and Geoff debate Sepultura, Scorpions, Spinal Tap, KISS, Anthrax, Alice In Chains, Faith No More, ...

Welcome back to Hawk Rock Talk: Classic Albums Geoff “The Actual Man” Garlock and Jason Gore go deep on one of the most CLASSIC albums in CLASSIC rock history. This week: the 1971 masterpiece that launched Jethro Tull into the stratosphere - "Aqualung." British blues-flute-rock. Concept-adjacent theology. Acoustic guitars in weird time signatures. And yes, a completely irresponsible number of Ian Anderson flute grunts. How many flute grunts will happen over the course ...

One of the true classic classics of classic rock!

Time to go truckin'... Space truckin'.

From "Black Sabbath" to "Never Say Die!"

RIP Ozzy
