Show Notes

DREAD ZEPPELIN DOES DISCO! One of the most original cover bands tried to shake up their schtick, and were roundly rejected for it. If you're only known for three things, how do you get rid of two? Why did the nineties hate the seventies? Did disco eventually win? Are the Bee Gees only a disco band? Was BTO ever a disco band? What Led Zep song are they putting into the beginning of this song? Can you enjoy Dread Zeppelin without knowing any Led Zeppelin songs? Is Gary B.I.B.B. trying to do an Elvis impersonation and failing? Or is he not trying at all? What happened to all the Elvis Xmas decorations at Kohl's? Find out if we have a whole lotta love for DZ’s third album on this episode of Detours and Outliers.
