It's the world's loudest podcast as hosts Steve Davies, Richard Napthine and Mark Norman take their collective 120 years of worship at the altar of golden era hard rock and heavy metal (1970-ish to 1996-ish), cut the ribbon on their newly-built Hard Rock Hall of Fame - and debate the albums that have earned their places in its gilded rooms.

Episode 7 - AOR Heaven (ft. Journey, REO Speedwagon & Strangeways)

After the all-out thrash assault of the last episode, the boys were in need of some soothing sonic balm. What better solution, then, than immersing themselves in the keyboard-laden delights of some honest to goodness AOR?
For a while it looked as though it would be a clash of titanic heavyweights as first Journey's Escape and then REO Speedwagon's Hi Infidelity entered the arena. But then Steve unveiled Strangeways' Native Sons - the AOR equivalent of Rocky Balboa stepping up to challenge Journey and REO's combined Apollo Creed.
Okay, so this analogy is getting stretched painfully thin. Suffice it to say that one of the three albums this week started off as an underdog in the race to the Hall of Fame. But would it floor the big guns?
