ROCK N' ROLL CIRCUS #43

ROCK N' ROLL CIRCUS #43

Author: Radio Wilder July 24, 2025 Duration: 1:50:48

Rock on, even as the legends leave us 🎸❤️

We just lost Ozzy this Tuesday. He was 76 and had just wrapped up his reunion tour with Black Sabbath. Last week, we said goodbye to Connie Francis at 80. As we spin nearly 80 years of rock 'n’ roll, these losses hit more often. But the music? It never stops. It’s the heartbeat of our lives—and we keep playing it.

Because our shows are recorded a week or two in advance, we couldn’t slip Ozzy in this week. But we’ve got a worthy stand-in—Alice Cooper and the Hollywood Vampires at the Helmand. And in memory of Connie, The Red Bird Girls are bringing the heat with I’m Just a Down-Home Girl.

We kick off with Strong Enough by Monovision, and you might just catch a little musical ménage à trois from the Hawaii Mudbombers. Need advice on how to turn a “no” into a “yes”? No Costume, No Candy, and No Money No Honey will spell it out for you.

Plus, a Texas garage band called Sweet Smoke is covering Morning Dew (originally by Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart) and it's a vibe.

Join us in our rock ’n’ roll studio and listen to your heart’s content. And don’t miss August 2nd—we’re going live with Jenny Bortman, President of Universal Insurance Programs, right in the studio!

Let’s keep the music playing.

Tune into Radio Wilder for a raw, personal journey through sound and memory, hosted by former drummer Harry Wilder Sleighel. This isn't a curated playlist or a formal interview show; it's the sonic diary of a life lived in rhythm. Each episode blends music with intimate, off-the-cuff stories drawn directly from over sixty years of a Rock 'n' Roll ethos-a perspective he's still actively living. The podcast feels like a late-night conversation in a backstage green room, where tales of the road, the studio, and the evolution of an artist's spirit flow as freely as the tracks he plays. You'll hear the records that shaped him, the behind-the-scenes moments that defined him, and the ongoing passion that fuels him. It’s this unique fusion of personal narrative and musical selection that naturally builds what listeners call the "Wilder Nation"-a community connected by authentic stories and the timeless power of a great song. Expect a direct, unvarnished, and deeply human connection in every installment, where the line between the artist and the audience dissolves.
