🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast – The Free Form Rock Podcast! 🇺🇸🎸 We’re crankin’ up the amps and diggin’ deep into the blues as we welcome our good friend Brian Davis from the Damn Good Movie Memories podcast! Not only does Brian know his way around a killer flick, but he’s also a certified blues connoisseur—so we figured, who better to help us review an album by the one and only Lonnie Mack? ⚡ Will this album strike like lightning in a bottle or fizzle out like burnt bacon at a truck stop diner?

You’ll have to listen and decide for yourself. 🎧 Tracks of the Week: ⚡ Travis throws down Grand Funk Railroad – Shinin’ On 🌑 Marc gets moody with The Doors – Wild Child 🔥 Jerry turns up the energy with Scarlet Rebels – Mask 🧨 And Mooger ends the show with AFI – Totalimmortal So light a candle, turn down the lights, and dive into the darkness with us.
