I‘m Don. I am a huge music dork and I love talking to and about musicians and bands. Since 2009, I have had the honor of talking to some of my all-time favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. Classic Metal, Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Classic Rock, Power Pop, Singer/songwriter, Jazz, and anything else that has made it‘s way into my life. My goal is to deliver interviews in a way that is not just entertaining for the listener but for the artist as well. I try to set a relaxed, ”living room” type of vibe and have a conversation and talk about anything. I like to let the artist steer the ship and that is always a treat for me and I find myself learning new things. I hope you will enjoy my podcast!

Drummer, pianist, lyricist, artist, and whatever else you can imagine is what makes up the life of legendary former Scorpions drummer, Herman Rarebell. Since leaving the Scorpions in 1996, Herman Zee German has been a busy so and so. Never one to sit still, Herman has returned in 2025 with a new release called What About Love as Herman Rarebell and Friends.
It was such an honor speaking with such a legendary, iconic artist and he couldn't have been more amazing. We talked about the new album and why he chose to cover his favorite '80s songs. We also talked about the Scorpions now legendary performances at the 1984 US Festival and the 1989 Moscow Music Peace Festival. It was just such a great conversation and I hope y'all enjoy this one.
