  DeepDives: Melodic AOR, 1983 - 1993(9)

  Aug 19, 20263h 54m

  After a couple of "Off the Beaten Path" episodes, we are back in the Dives wheelhouse of Melodic AOR. The majority of the episode resides smack dab in the 80's with a few 90's excursions thrown in for good measure. Thanks for being patient as I traveled down some less-traveled rivers these last couple of episodes on my way back to what we do best here over at Dives: underrated AOR & Melodic Rock from the 80s. I hope you enjoy, and I'll see you back here for the next episode in a couple of weeks. Take care, my friends.

  DeepDives: Heartland III

  Aug 5, 20264h 3m

  It's been a couple of years, but we're finally back with a third round of Heartland for your ears to enjoy. This week's episode is crammed full with music between the years 1981 and 2015, with 90% of the material between 1983 & 1990, the Heartland sweet spot in my opinion. Enjoy, my friends, & we'll be back in a couple of weeks with a proper '80s AOR & Melodic Rock Dive for your ears!

  DeepDives: Like A Rolling Stone

  Jul 23, 20264h 5m

  We are back with a new show for your ears to enjoy. This episode is filled with music from the last five decades that lean heavily on the Rolling Stones sound. Particularly, 1968 through 1981. There are a lot of Dives regulars to satisfy, and as for the other artists, I hope I weaved them in and out to the point that all the puzzle pieces fit. Thanks for taking the detour with me, and we'll be back in a couple of weeks with a much-requested Heartland episode. Until then, enjoy! Stick around to the end for two songs each from the two newest Stones albums. In my opinion, they are outstanding.

  Episode #122

  (FIXED) Deepives; WestCoast-ish III, 1979-2026

  Jul 10, 20263h 51m

  This is the fixed version of the newest Dives. Somehow, the final third of the show didn't make the trip over to Podbean. I promise you it's here now. My apologies. 👊 The DeepDives team is back with a WestCoast-ish episode for your ears to enjoy. This is the third such episode in this series and the first since 2024. Why it's taken me this long to circle back is a mystery, but here it is nonetheless. In this episode, you'll hear 80s pop, Yacht Rock, Sophistipop, early 80s Crossover Country, and of course, a huge helping of WestCoast. I hope you enjoy this music as much as we enjoyed serving it up. We'll see you in a couple of weeks for a "Like A Rolling Stone" Dive. 🤘👊
