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/

S9E27 went out live from the TSORR Myoli Beach studio on 2 July 2026. The show was dedicated to American rock and metal in celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the USA this weekend, 4 July 2026. American music changed my life; I am forever grateful for every amazing, in some cases life-changing, USA band I ever heard.

The Diabolical Challenge featured four bands with the bass, drums, lead singer, keyboards, and guitarist format: Rainbow, Bon Jovi, Journey, and Great White. The Rock and Metal Time Machine had some notable events occurring this week, especially on the 3rd of July. Some amazing coincidences in the 27 Club with Brian Jones and Jim Morrison and Ziggy Stardust. It seems 3 July is quite the day to die.

I had an interesting interview with Khazimula and we got a sneak preview of 'On a Dream, which is available tomorrow morning. Check it out, I hope to hear it played at a World Cup one day. Thanks as always for the support. Find TSORR on Facebook and X @TSORR
