EP584 – Diamond Dave
This week we welcome author and podcast host Darren Paltrowitz to the show. Darren just published “DLR Book- How David Lee Roth Changed The World” (Backbeat Books). An excellent read that delves into the mystery that is David Lee Roth. Hopefully you’ll want to grab a copy for yourself after hearing our lengthy chat. That chat starts at the 31 minute mark if you want to go straight to DLR.
Before that though Richie and Scott have a bit of a chat on the recently departed Tony Clarkin (Magnum) and James Kottak (Kingdom Come, Scorpions, McAuley Schenker, Warrant). For many long time listeners you know how much involvement James has had with FoM over the years so this one really hit home. 2024 is not starting off well in regard to rockers gone too soon. James did a full career retrospective over two episodes. You can hear those on episodes 355 & 356. James was also a guest on our Little Mountain Sound Project which you can hear on episode 263. He was also our guest on episodes 226 and 390. All of those are available to stream directly off the site.
