Episode 532-The 27 Club Artists We Lost
🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast 🎙️
We dive into one of the most haunting legacies in music history — The 27 Club. These are the artists we tragically lost at just 27 years old, leaving behind timeless music and art that continue to shape generations.
Marc, Mooger, Jerry, and our family members Tim Wirasnik and Travis Perrotta sit down to remember and celebrate these icons. Along the way, we also touch on a couple of actors who left us too soon. It’s a sad subject, but we choose to honor the treasure trove of creativity they left behind.
🎵 Tracks of the Week
Travis: Ted Nugent – Death by Misadventure
Marc: Lindsey Buckingham – Underground
Mooger: Kitty – Spit XXV
Jerry: Journey – Escape
💡 Until next week: love your family, love your friends, jam some tunes, relax, and remember — we’re all here for a limited time.

Welcome to the wild world of the Free Form Rock Podcast, where we embrace every riff, solo, and scandalous hairdo from the glorious era of rock! If you’re a purist, a metal elitist who believes that any sound that isn’t an 8-minute guitar solo is akin to sacrilege, then this is your warning: you might want to turn down the volume and stick to your ‘perfect’ playlist filled with only the heaviest and most obscure bands that your no-caffeine diet can handle.
Here, we celebrate everything from shaking your head to classic rock anthems to moshing like a maniac at a metal concert! We love all the forms of rock—classic, metal, and everything in between. So, if your idea of a good time is debating over which band had the best leather pants, you’re in for quite the ride!
Sit back, relax, and remember: we don’t take ourselves too seriously—because if we did, we’d be stuck in the ‘70s, arguing over whether Led Zeppelin was better than Black Sabbath while wearing questionable platform shoes. Join us as we rock out the way rock was meant to be—loud, unapologetic, and just a little ridiculous! Tune in, turn it up, and let’s jam through the delightful chaos of our favorite tunes together!
