The Story of Rock and Roll Radio Show

You may well have internet radio fatigue, God knows there are thousands of sites trying to get your attention. The Story of Rock and Roll Radio Show is different. It goes out live weekly on Rebel Rock Radio and Bulldogs radio but also as a Podcast so you can choose when you want to hear it. TSORR is not background music, it is a relationship. The show exists to introduce you to music you will like, play the music you want to hear, and give you some insight into the bands and the music. So, if Rock & Metal are part of your life, give The Story of Rock and Roll a listen. The Story of Rock and Roll Radio Show or TSORR covers a vast range of Rock, Metal, Punk & Blues. It showcases guitar based-music from around the world. You will get music from the mid 60's all the way through to albums released this week. With TSORR it is all about the music. If you love guitars and loud rock and roll this is the show for you. Each week it features many of the top rock and metal bands in the world. There is always a healthy selection of ACDC, Priest, Maiden, Metallica, Rush, Kiss, Queen, ZZ Top, Rammstein, Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Rainbow, Dio, and all the bands that made Rock Music what it is today. The show also introduces you to many great bands that you may or may not have heard of. TSORR tends not to focus on the greatest rock hits of all time, it goes deeper and features tracks off classic albums that you won't hear elsewhere. TSORR is the place to pick up on something you like and then follow up and delve deeper into a band or song that struck a sweet chord with you. The show is always trying to bring you, in Bowie's words, that "One damn song that can make me break down and cry". You get the facts and the stories as well as some irreverent opinions and you can always contact TSORR for more info about something you heard. Give it a try, TSORR; it's all about the music \m/

S9E23 went out on the 4th of June 2026, LIVE from the TSORR Myoli Beach Studios in the Western Cape. It wasgreat to be back in the studio and cranking the volume again this week. It’s also the beginning of my birth week, and I was celebrating myself hard!

The Diabolical Challenge took us straight into blues-rock heaven with four absolute legends — all killer three-piece bands (guitar, bass, drums): Cream, Jimi Hendrix, ZZ Top, and Rory Gallagher. Proper pioneers and some seriously fiery material that lit the place up.

In the Immortals slot, we fired up Neil Young with the epic 'Crime in the City' (Sixty to Zero)”. We also had some fresh new releases, including Armored Saint and Brian Fallon, a few curveballs, and the usual favourites that just had to be played.

Artists featured:
Jørn, Joe Bonamassa, Mick Jagger, Brian Fallon, Armored Saint, Pat Travis, Wilson, Black Label Society, Cold Chisel, Judas Priest, The Stranglers, Rush, Motörhead, David Bowie, Tool, Steve Vai, Guns N’ Roses, Skid Row, Interview - Liaan Horton, The Color Blew, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Neil Young, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, ZZ Top, Rory Gallagher, The Boomtown Rats, The Distillers, Piet Botha, ACDC, Tom Petty, The Uninvited, Airbourne, Parkway Drive.
