Inside Bob Nalbandian’s Metal Heart – EP054

In this episode, we talk with Bob Nalbandian, director of the
docuseries “Inside Metal: The Pioneers Of Hard Rock And Metal.” Bob
shares his growing up rock stories and some amazing stories about
making these documentaries and growing up in LA during this
glorious time for hard rock and metal music. In the not-too-distant
future, the awesome bands of the 70’s and 80’s that we grew up
loving and seeing live in concert be just a memory. Time stops for
no man. That’s why it’s increasingly important for documentaries to
be made by people like Bob Nalbandian who grew up in LA and is an
ardent fan of hard rock and metal. Bob was into the New Wave of
British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) and some of the awesome local acts
happening out in LA during the musical explosion of the 80’s and
early 90’s. Bob Nalbandian loves the music and connected first hand
with the musicians, many of whom grew up in Los Angeles at a time
when bands and fans filled local clubs like the Whiskey, The
Troubadour, The Starwood, and The Country Club. You've heard of
Motley Crue, Van Halen, Ratt, and Quiet Riot, but for every one of
those bands there were five others that were every bit as popular
in the clubs at the time that you never heard of unless you lived
on the Sunset Strip when the LA metal scene exploded. We had an
awesome time just hanging out and talking with Bob about some of
the stories, characters, and memories he had seeing these killer
rock n roll bands coming of age in the early stages of their
careers out in Hollywood. Help us fund the Rock N Pod Expo 2 this
