Welcome to the rock history class you actually want to take!

Join the father and son duo as we unpack the raw, electrifying debut of Aerosmith, their self-titled 1973 record. We'll give you the band's origin story and a detailed track-by-track breakdown of the album that launched America's greatest rock and roll band.

Next, we dive into Michael's Journey by dissecting the unforgettable 60s Motown classic, The Marvelettes' "Please Mr. Postman!"

Plus, we shine a light on three fantastic bands that deserve more attention in our essential segment, The Art of Discovery.
