Vložit
- čas přidán 26. 06. 2021
- Iconic Los Angeles Disc Jockey, Journalist and King of Breaking New Bands, Rodney Bingenheimer recalls the good ole days in the Hollywood scene with artists such as Cher, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Van Halen, The Runaways, Led Zeppelin, Elvis, Nancy Sinatra, Frank Zappa, The Beach Boys, The Monkees, Phil Spector, Tina Turner and so many more. Rodney was a DJ here in LA on The World Famous KROQ for decades, but now exposes fans to new music Sundays at 6pm on Little Stevens Underground Garage on SiriusXM. Rodney has turned his listeners on to 1000's of bands that he thought were good throughout his tenure and in return a lot of these artists became superstars. Rodney owned the Rock Legend hangout "Rodneys English Disco" in the 1970's and we also discuss his documentary "Mayor of The Sunset Strip". Rodneys contribution to music is priceless and he has the stories to match.

Very good interviewer!
Drew is the best. He was so nice to Rodney. You can tell Rodney was nervous
Nobody has helped more bands than Rodney. Huge respect for him.
Rodney's disco at the Starwood was some of the best punk rock ever. Rodney is a sweetheart and I owe many thanks to him for putting me on his guest list every Tuesday night, and letting Robbie (Poshboy) and I join him for breakfast at Denny's many a morning. And don't tell me the girls aren't around anymore, still have the same phone number??
A lot of music is in our ears because this little guy shared it. Bravo for getting Rodney on and being so kind to him. He deserves a lifetime achievement award! Bravo Sunset Sound
Rodney was everywhere in Hollywood back in the day! What a great life he has led, and the people he knew!
And still knows.
Long live The Mayor of The Sunset Strip. Maximum love and respect for Rodney.
Rock N Roll would not be the same without him.
"Stop listening to the government and the media and just be kind to one another"
The most profound statement I've ever heard on youtube or any other platform for that matter. 👋
❤️
Rodney's life stories are godhead. I hadn't heard he was at Rolling Stones, December's Children session. I actually yelled, Holy Crap! Driving down the road.
I live in Hollywood, and I've seen Rodney shopping in the Ralphs grocery store I shop at for years. He drives this old blue Pontiac GTO. I never knew who he was, but man, he's like the guy who's witnessed everything in Hollywood from the early 60's until now. Next time I see him I'm going tell him how cool he is.
Living legend of rock history.
I attended one of those shows at The Starwood back in the mid 1970's. before the 1st LP.
Rodney introduced some much great music back when he was on KROQ
The Zappa house with the bowling alley was called the Log Cabin and it was at 2401 Laurel Canyon Boulevard. That's where the Alice Cooper band auditioned for Frank. It was a HUGE log cabin that was once owned by Tom Mix. The Zappas rented it and lived there less than 6 months. The Zappas then moved to the house that Lady Gaga now owns.
Actually Lizzie jagger bought the house from Gaga recently so it’s in I. Good hands
Rodney Bingenheimer for President ! Thanks for posting !
❤️
Thanks Drew and everybody at legendary Sunset Sound for these invaluable roundtables which give us music geeks so much insight and information! This is pure gold! And long live the one and only Mayor of the Sunset Strip, Mr. Rodney Bingenheimer for introducing us to so much great, great music. This video put a smile on my face 56 minutes and 29 seconds long!
Thank You for being so kind to Rodney, Drew. It was a very sweet interview and you can tell RB is nervous but having a good time. I don't think he's ever done a podcast
Rodney it seems has always been that way, quiet, meek guy when hes interviewed. Ive followed him from my time in the 70s /80s.
Growing up i remember Rodney was on 8PM till Midnight, Saturday and Sunday.
KROQ did him wrong.. apart from Rodney 91X played less playlist and deep tracks.
GBY Rodney..
Rodney hung out with Sweet, and Mark Farner and many others that we're not mentioned.
Rodney is an Icon, a Godhead!
Hell ya i have been waiting weeks for this
me too. wonder why it wasn't premiered
Rodney is truly the GODFATHER of introducing the greatest bands of all time to us and he has done more for me in terms of loving truly unique music you did not hear anywhere else than any other DJ has EVER done. I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE FOR THIS MAN! 🖤🖤🖤 It’s also truly sad a lot of people have forgotten about this beautiful man. All the people he introduced and befriended. Where are they now for him, I wonder? He truly RULES in my book! Hell, I was one of the people that donated to have him FINALLY get a star on HOLLYWOOD. It was ridiculous how long it took for him to get one! I will never ever forget this sweet man! I love you RODNEY!! 🖤🐈⬛🖤🦇🖤⚰️🖤🧛🏻♀️🖤🎶 🖤
Does anyone still remember Rodney on the Rock on KROQ? Best show ever.
The interviewer was earning his money on this one.
"So you were the person who discovered Van Halen, David Bowie and many others"
"Yeah"
😂😂😂😂
Legend !!!!
Rodney’s radio show was a staple i my life. I so miss it.😢
Rodney’s English Disco
One can not over estimate the impact & importance of Rodney On The Roq's a influence & contributions to the music industry & pop culture in general.
NO ONE has broke more iconic artists like Rodney!!
The list is
RIDICULOUS ❤🎉😊
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME 😎
I heard him on KROQ FM during is final run on there and some of his show now on Sirius XM. He is a HOF disc jockey of the Los Angeles music scene. I live and based in Minneapolis, Minnesota so you don’t hear much about him on less you are a fan. Love this guy.
Rodney is a gem! Loved listening to his stories.
Great interview. No hype nothing out of sorts. Good clean fun Rodney was totally chill too. Totally humble but has every right to brag.
Wonderful interview! Love you, Rodney! Haven't seen you in 45 plus years, but I have the memories. Some of the best times of my life!! The 70's were fab!
Great times back then. People forget that the L.A. area was a major music scene.
this is amazing stuff can't believe it's not getting more views!
I was in North Hollywood listening the first time he played Van Halen on KROC . It was always interesting and fun to listen to his Sunday night show back then.
Loved learning about him
I first heard U2‐BOY. Rodney on the ROQ. 1980.
I just bought Jimi Hendrix electric ladyland documentary DVD at fodacs for just 1 dollar and a half. I had to grab it cuz it's unavailable on CZcams.
The hair!
Great interview! 👍🏻
Yeah, crazy that I never knew anything about Rodney beyond his work on KROQ. I used to listen to him all the time. Then a couple years ago I finally started realizing that was him, Rodney B is Rodney on the Roq, doing all this great stuff with bands.
I guess that’s just how it is, I really don’t know what any Radio DJs/hosts/personalities looked like that I’ve been listening to… other than Howard Stern.
Now with interviews like this and social media, it’s cool to finally see what these folks look like! 🤘🏻🎸💯😎
I love the honest low key personality
Great interview!

Just saw this interview with Rikk Agnew.,,.grew up in Southern California.,First heard KLOS & KMET in 1976 when I was 6 years old.,.Started listening to Dr. Demento in 1978.,Can't remember when I first heard KROQ..,,I remember when Sundays were KMET & Dr Demento.,KROQ.,(Oh hell that smell it's Katie Odell) Rodney on the Roq.,Or KLOS.,with "Paraquat Kelly"., & the 7th day show when they played 7 albums in a row.,

Rodneys English disco

Rodney or Drew?
@@sunsetsoundrecorders rodney
Love these interviews gentlemen!! So much good stuff!! Thank you. PLAY LOUD!
Good interview. Great subject with rodney
Awesome interview! Thanks so much.
I was hoping that they would have asked Rodney about The Rotters. I definitely love to hear his side of the story.
Good for you, Rodney! I remember you from the Del Charro Apts when we were kids and you had your mind set on Hollywood. Your claim to fame in those days was that your car leaked oil on the Beverly Hillbillies driveway. I'm so glad you lived the life you dreamed of.
Rick Herzog
Rodney can write a book and a movie can be made about him.
His movie is called Mayor of the sunset strip.
Awesome interview.
Pretty cool 😎
Two Things:
Chas Chandler of The Animals was Jimi Hendrix's manager, not Hilton Valentine.
There's a story about Peter Tork of The Monkees riding with Jimi Hendrix in the rented Corvette Stingray you mentioned, and wrecking it on Mulholland Drive.
If I had experienced my adolescence on the Strip back then I would have gotten lost sooner or later like a lot of the LA FOXES. I mean how could a young Rock afficionado cope with all of this glamorous diversion?.🤔
Working at kaiser hospital in bellflower late 70s listening to Rodney on the rocks
Any chance of getting us in touch with Rodney? It's great to see him seemingly happy more than dissatisfied! I am an aspiring writer and we are creating a fully mobile touring mobile Rock Radio Station. We are dead set on and 100% positive that places like the Sunset Strip can be revitalized with the right people and right components. Some innovative creation of events and revisiting the past about 3 decades back by doing certain things will require some collaboration from people all over in the entertainment industry that have been greatly affected by the decline on the Strip, Hollywood, and other once thriving nostalgic locations throughout the country. I am that sharp tack that keeps finding seats sat on through the truly pathetic acts of people who have simply given up and keep sitting back down on that chair. Time to get up, collaborate and make a movement. We'll be in Sunset Strip just before or after the new year. Tell Rodney I apologize for calling him on a Sunday (Monday early morning) I just thought he was still a night owl! My god he can be mean!! ;)
THAT WIG!!!!! 😂😂😂😂 That exemplifies California!😂😂😂😂
I didn't realize this man was that young. 🤣
did Rodney mention George Hickenlooper?
Is it just me or does the host seem hung up on VanHalen?
He’s a VH fan
Far too much discussion about Van Halen, and asking Rodney if he thought Dave was a good vocalist was awkward. Rodney never has an unkind thing to say about anyone, let alone his friends like David Lee Roth.
So thats what happened to Moe Howard's wig!!
I heard sex pistols on khj, the last song they played
Eddy Nash. Why can't they talk about him lol?
Bobby Fuller Four
My Band PIN-UPs are the ones that David Forest gave Zolar X stage set up to,They left it all at the Starwood and after a while David said ....Nicky do you want Zolar X's Stage stuff and we took it,I have a huge history with the Starwood and Zolar x I can bet Brian NEVER even went to the Starwood ! lololollolo keep on reading books brian !
I was hoping he would speak about Spector.
The Animals' bass player, Chas Chandler managed Hendrix - not guitarist, Hilton Valentine.
by the way whatever happened to Rodney's favorite band the Jam?
Not much - 8 x UK top-3 singles including 3 at #1; three x UK top 3-studio LPs; three x UK top-3 compilation LPs; one Live LP @ #2.
Love his Brooke Shields thing.
***DREW: @16:25 “What’s your take on that?”…..
(Drew asks Rodney which studio does he like more {where Van Halen cut music}, Sunset Sound or 5150 -EVH’s home studio?)
***RODNEY: “I like it here better, for sure. You feel more at home, here.”
***DREW: “Did you ever go up to 5150?”
***RODNEY:”No.”......…..
(crickets:“….🦗🎶….🦗🎶”)
😂WTF?😂! LOL
😂😂😂
How much did Phil Spector pay to get pissed on?
Everything has become so corporate
ha... Now I know where lady Gaga lives. lol.
Love Rodney, know him well but this interview guy... "Did you live in London?" next thing I know comes "The Chili Peppers..". Ugh. He's exactly like every well meaning boob that clings on to Rodney while he's just trying to eat a bowl of soup. Rodney though appreciates his fans, always.
Well , if "Hollywood is dead as a doornail" what are you going to do about that Mr. Mayor ?....playing Green Day, Blink 182 , Dramarama records ? No doubt ......all such "godheads".......👍🥴
Serve him a drink at least , Rodney sounds thirsty . Why didn't he like the interesting "Mayor Of Sunset Strip" docu ? because it showed some actual sad real life drama instead of continuous "happy happy fame" ? Anyway , sweet guy ofcourse.
Brian NEVER seen ZOLAR X ! I have MANY times ! Stop Brian !
God I hate Coldplay!
