Was it being front row at a Bowie concert as a kid? Was it seeing The Beatles on Ed Sullivan? Or was it the first time that your band got to play The Whisky A Go Go? My Rock Moment celebrates rock music from the 60s, 70s and 80s with interviews from those that lived it and keep the music alive today! Host Amanda Morck is a native Angeleno, long-time resident of Sunset Strip, and an adjunct instructor of California rock history. She interviews Rock Hall of Fame musicians, Grammy-winning producers, rock journalists, photographers, DJs, managers, authors and award-winning Directors and entertainment personalities about the rock moments they’ll never forget - moments that fostered a deep love of a band, an album or inspired them to pursue a lifelong career in music. And you as the listener will be invited along for a trip down rock and roll memory lane. My Rock Moment is a proud member of Pantheon Podcasts, the first of its kind, all music-based podcast network.

    A great listen
    I listened to a few episodes before reviewing. I've learnt a lot from Amanda's podcast, it's always interesting, a bit like listening in on a fascinating musical conversation at a cafe, or perhaps a crossed-line. I particularly enjoy any content that discusses the 60s/70s/Laurel Canyon. Well done, keep producing your excellent content, its always welcome😀Mark (The Cuckoo Town Podcast)
