What is "articulate rock"? Find out as we continue our Billy Squier sidecast series, Songs of The Knight: A Billy Squier Retrospective. Today we're taking at Billy's breakout album from 1981, Don't Say No.  Joined by podcast friends Jon Lamoreaux of The Hustle Podcast and BJ Kramp of the Rock And/Or Roll Podcast, Eric and his co-hosts go in-depth and track back track of Billy's legendary record that featured the massive radio hits In The Dark, Lonely Is The Night, My Kinda Lover (wait, or is it Lava??), and The Stroke. Some detours into John Lennon, Level 42 and Patton Oswalt as we meander off topic from time to time. Finally we wrap this episode in the series with BJ's personal top ten list of Billy Squier songs.  We hope you'll follow us as we work through Billy's entire discography!

ALBUM BY ALBUM: IRON MAIDEN 1982-1988
presented by Ryan Leonardo and Craig Smith for the Pods & Sods Network
recorded July 2018

Ryan Leonardo reunites with Craig for the first time in a long time to discuss what many consider Iron Maiden's albums recorded during their best years: The Number Of The Beast, Piece Of Mind, Powerslave, Somewhere In Time, and Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son. Weaved around these appreciations for the band and their music are stories about discovering these albums together as kids, the quest to find all of the Eddie artwork possible and some more childhood memories. Recorded in front of an audience as one as Ryan's girlfriend Karen joins in here and there to try to keep things above board (things are not kept above board).
