Where DOES the time time go?! Chickenfoot's incredible 2009 debut album turns sweet 16 this year!! This means in 2025 it too can now complain about driving 55 MPH and decide on Turnin' Left whenever it so chooses!!

In this celebration of the supergroup's EPIC debut album, the Bo-Hosts reminisce on that era in Sammy's life & career, and provide an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the making of the official animated music video for "Get It Up"! As some of you may already know, Bo-Host Darin conceived, produced and directed the video for the band alongside Sammy's lifelong friend and 2-time manager, the man everyone called "Carter". Darin shares making-of stories, a never before heard alternate-edit of "Get It Up", original production art, and reveals for the first time anywhere, concept artwork/tests that was supposed to be used for the sequel video, "Bigfoot", which unfortunately never came to pass due to the untimely passing of Carter. Plus, Darin also shares a some very interesting tidbits on other possible supergroups that Sammy could have participated in way back then!

Sit, back, crack open your favorite Sammy-libation of choice and crank it up!

Whoa! 2025 is off to a great start for Redheads as Friday Jan. 31st we got the surprise new track "Fortune Teller Blues, featuring Sammy and blues wunderkind, Joe Bonamassa. But what IS this tune?!? Where did it come from?!? It sounds a bit like...Deep RED...or is it...RED Country Communion!?!

In this impromptu reaction/review the Bo-Hosts speculate on the origins of this truly epic, and very inspiRED, tune and try to piece together the tangled timelines of how - and why - we got this surprise track right now..without any, ahem, fair warning??!

( Not that we're complaining, and we'll gladly take more of it Sam! )

"BALANCE" turns 30 today!! Wow, where did 3 decades go?!?
In this bittersweet episode the Bo-Hosts wax nostalgic on this most epic of albums and look back on what was a turbulent era for their favorite version of the band. The Bo-Hosts also discuss Balance's place in landscape of Rock N Roll circa 1995, the interesting origins of certain tracks, Eddie's personal challenges, his gear & evolving tone, and we also hear from friends & listeners on what the album means to them.

Sadly, Balance was Van Halen's final, full-length studio album with Sammy, and as we would soon learn, the cracks that are now easily visible were about to break wide open, setting the stage for, as friend of the show, Martin Popoff, calls "Van Halen's Dark Ages". As the saying goes, "Hindsight's always 5150!"

Enjoy, and today, be sure to spin "Balance" at full volume in salute to this monster disc!
