Classic Rock 179

For anyone who believes the golden age of rock was etched into vinyl between the mid-sixties and the seventies, Classic Rock 179 is your weekly refuge. Curated by Nick Dav, this podcast is a deep, unfiltered dive into the raw energy and pioneering sounds that defined a generation. You'll hear the seismic riffs of Led Zeppelin, the psychedelic blues of Cream, the explosive mod anthems of The Who, and the groundbreaking blues-rock of The Yardbirds. Of course, no journey through this era is complete without the revolutionary genius of Jimi Hendrix. Nick rounds out each episode with what he casually calls "other crap"-a collection of forgotten B-sides, live rarities, and underappreciated tracks from the same legendary period that deserve a fresh listen. This isn't a polished history lesson; it's a passionate mixtape from a true believer, blending iconic anthems with hidden gems to recreate the feeling of discovering these sounds for the first time. Tune in to hear the walls of fuzz, the extended solos, and the sheer attitude that made this music timeless.
