In this episode of One More Music Pod we’re stepping into a world where rock and roll collided with science fiction...

In 1972, David Bowie didn’t just release a record — he introduced the world to a flame-haired alien rock star sent to Earth with a message of love, doom, and dazzling ambiguity.

A record that was bold, theatrical, and unlike anything that had come before it. It blurred the line between artist and character, turning an album into a full-blown mythology.

So turn the lights low, lace up your platform boots, and get ready — because this is the story of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars!

An album that proved that David Bowie really was from another world!

Ladies and gentlemen, tighten your blue suede seatbelts and alert your parents, because today we’re traveling back to 1956 - a time when hips were dangerous, hair was tall, and one man single-handedly terrified polite society!

Before this album, rock and roll was just a suggestion. After that, it was a full-body experience! Elvis Presley took blues, country, and gospel, and shook them all together like a milkshake at a drive-in, and served it with a side of scandal!

Critics were confused, teenagers were screaming, and somewhere radio DJ’s were whispering “Are you sure we're allowed to play this?”

In this episode we are dropping the needle on the album that launched a thousand impersonators….

It’s got swagger, it’s got soul, and it’s got moments so raw and emotional you can almost hear the Mississippi Delta in every note!

This is Elvis Presley. Uh-huh. Thank you very much!

This time, in the spirit of Christmas, we're bringing you a lovely, festive, Christmassy edition of the show!

A quick rundown of our favourite Christmas songs to help ease everyone into the festive period!

Plus, we've put a little Christmas quiz together! Because what is Christmas without an argument around the dinner table that results in your mum storming out and not being seen for four days, all because she forgot the name of the other guy in Wham!

Merry Christmas!

Compton. Los-Angeles. 1988.

A symbol of urban crisis. Poverty, violence and police brutality. But out of all this chaos and disorder came one of the most influential rap albums of all time!

It put west coast hip-hop on the map, and turned the likes of Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, Ice Cube, DJ Yella and MC Ren into household names.

This is the story of Straight Outta Compton by NWA!

It’s 2005 — iPods are chunky, jeans are skinny, and Bloc Party just dropped Silent Alarm.

The soundtrack to every indie kid’s identity crisis and every house party where someone definitely cried in the kitchen!

And over twenty years later, it still hits! The urgency, the tension, the beauty — it’s like the sonic version of youth itself: loud, fast, and slightly confused.

This is Silent Alarm by Bloc Party!
