EXCLUSIVE: #JudasPriest legendary founding guitarist #KKDowning talks about the latest war of words with his replacement, #RichieFaulkner, why Downing feels he’s not in the band today, and what he calls a snub during a lifetime achievement award honor.

EXCLUSIVE: #KKDowning Of #JudasPriest On Being Trash Talked By Former Bandmates

EXCLUSIVE PART 1: Original #JudasPriest guitarist #KKDowning responds to #RichieFaulkner’s recent #WAAF interview where Faulkner says “backstabbing” and “negativity...is just disappointing and unnecessary.” Downing tells host Dave Kinchen he regrets the back and forth.

We continue our series on iconic albums with a look at the 1987 release simply titled #Whitesnake. A look at why it was a game changer, plus news from #GeddyLee and what’s blasting from those speakers in #Cleveland?!

Today we are looking at what financial commitments and deals are needed for classic rock bands to survive. Also, we have the latest round of drama involving current and former members of #JudasPriest. Plus, #DavidLeeRoth in #Vegas? What does that mean for #VanHalen?

Kinch! returns with a look at a new series focused on iconic albums. We kick it all off with thoughts on #DefLeppard’s #Hysteria from 1987. We also hear from Dave Kinchen’s recent interview with Def Lep drummer #RickAllen, who talked exclusively about his 1984 car crash that resulted in the lost of his arm. That and more on this podcast. Check us out!

Today we complete our mini-series on the diverse Rolling Stones catalogue; specifically looking at their venture into psychedelic rock. Also, we revisit our recent interview with bassist Eddie Jackson of #Queensryche before their Saturday concert in #AtlanticCity.

Continuing our series on the very diverse #RollingStones catalog, our host examines the gospel and gospel-influenced numbers written and or performed by the Glimmer Twins and co.

We kick of a special mini-series on The Rolling Stones, and the many genres captured within their historic and mighty grand catalogue. The question we ask here is: can we call the Stones the greatest country band of all time?!

A little trip down memory lane today, where Dave Kinchen looks back on what was a disaster of the “reunited” #VanHalen at the 1996 #MTV Video Music Awards, plus #SammyHagar’s initial departure from the band, and the entrance of #GaryCherone. Also, a happy belated 66th birthday to Alex Van Halen!

Dave Kinchen takes us back to the first and only #DeepPurple album with six string slinger #TommyBolin. It’s heavy on both the hard rock side (foreshadowing what would come with early #Whitesnake), yet brings in even more of the trademark funk and soul of #GlennHughes and #DavidCoverdale before the band broke up in 1976. We talk about CTTB’s legacy. Also, new music and shows from #Kansas, #GretaVanFleet and #HELLYEAH!

We take a look at some of the world’s most reclusive rock stars who have played in groups like #SmashingPumpkins, #TheWhiteStripes and these days...even #VanHalen. Also, we look back on the legacy and fan appreciation of #ChineseDemocracy. #HollywoodVamps and #BrianWelch in the news too.

Lots and lots of music news today! There’s a glimpse of new #DavidLeeRoth solo material and a hint from #John5. Also, #JonathanCain on his relationship with #StevePerry, and who did it better...Roth or #SammyHagar? It’s the most legendary music debate. That and more!

#JudasPriest guitarist #RichieFaulkner has responded to #KKDowning’s statement that Richie and drummer #ScottTravis are on a wage and are not full members of the band. Also, #BohemianRhapsody has landed tens of millions into the bank accounts of #Queen band members, collectively making them wealthier than #QueenElizabeth. There’s another tour announcement too! #RobertPlant will be playing some shows this summer, including at a big #Canadian festival.

#KKDowning chats with #DaveKinchen about ongoing legal battles over control of the #JudasPriest empire. Also, nothing says heavy metal quite like a wagon ride through the #Irish countryside with the former singer of #Queensryche! Seriously, there’s food and drink in the multicultural, expand-your-horizons deal. We talk about that, and new 2019 summer tours announced by #Journey and #DeepPurple.

Dave Kinchen has a preview of what we will be talking about on the show this week!

It’s another loaded weekend rock show, with a look back at #Queensryche’s landmark concept album #OperationMindcrime. Also, is #LynyrdSkynyrd the most cursed band in rock n roll? We remember the horrific plane crash and several deaths that befell the band many years later. Also, #Metallica’s #JamesHetfield plays the first cop that arrested #TedBundy in a new movie.

A special episode highlighting the great works of #IronMaiden since #BruceDickinson and #AdrianSmith came back and a three guitar army attack was formed!

Big reaction to the documentary on #Queen and #AdamLambert! Also, an awesome #SpinalTap reunion and the mysterious chatter around #Woodstock50. The financier pulls out but organizers say...the show must go on! (Sorry!). Plus, #UFO members say they will continue their final tour after the death of #PaulRaymond.

Wow! Where has the time gone? #AdamLambert marks 10 years rocking with #Queen, just in time for a two hour documentary on #ABC. We look back on how the collaboration started. Also, #PaulStanley’s new book #BackstagePass has another jab at #PeterCriss, just when you thought he was laid out plenty good in Paul’s first book!
