He forgot Pulp. He didn’t mention Suede. Where’s Sleeper? What about James? Where is James in this? Why did he not talk about how Coldplay continued with Brit Pop?

Host knows their stuff, diverse music selection and he is also quite funny, what’s not to like?
Mark Eggins via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/24/23

Love the podcast.
pjh92 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/22
While I am a fan of this Podcast, it has - from time to time in recent years -carried more social and political overtones which I find rather boring. The show is at its best when the host has guests to bounce off of. When he flies solo, it is a bit of a struggle to listen. The podcast is very...Read full review »

I’m sure Journey will be just crushed by your intolerance.
Sterling5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/22
I was introduced to this podcast when it was about 100 episodes old. Pat obviously knows sooooo much about rock/pop music, he remembers all the details of who played with what band, and gone to an amazing number of concerts. He uses this plus his comedy background to not only educated us on...Read full review »

Enjoying your podcast. I’m of similar opinion that Journey won’t get a penny from me cause of Jonathan Cain and his wacko wife

Ok. After 11 plus years, I guess I can give this a review. I didn’t come here to give 5 star reviews. But the show does deserve it. 👍

What a great idea for a show!!!! Fastini played it great. Now after all that seventies saccharine, need diabetes medicine. LOVE THIS ONE
Evil Pat via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/01/22
Great episode with Joe and Kristen! Check out their podcast, it is fun and you did a great job as a guest on theirs.
RUN TMC10 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/22
Pat always delivers a great show. Even episodes where I don’t think I’ll enjoy the subject, I listen, because he does it right. His interviews show how much care he puts into doing what he does and you can tell his guests truly appreciate the time he took to prepare. 5 stars all the way.
Christopher Todd Davis via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/22/21
This is a wonderful podcast. The host tells wonderful stories about a new theme, album, or band each week with great insights. He also seems to be a pretty nice person too. It’s worth a listen and worth supporting.
Mr. Wall Street NYC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/21
legitimately my favorite podcast for a time, then everyone lost their minds during the last election and it became unbearable to put up with listening to everyone’s inner monologue on a podcast. took a break from it for a couple years. thought I’d come back and see how it is now. nope. too...Read full review »

Just found this podcast and loved the 2 episodes I’ve listened to so far. The chat is so funny and relaxed it doesn’t feel like listening for 2 hours. Looking forward to exploring more episodes.
Berwick Ranger via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/23/21
Loved the Dave Pirner episode and hearing all the stories…wish it went a lot longer Also love the use the Hockey’s song as your theme music 👌 absolute quality
Wayne_Izard via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/10/21
I didn’t come here for music, or to be entertained, or to hear really funny stories, or to understand what motivates artists in the music industry, or to get insight on never before heard stories about my favorite rock stars! All these guys talk about is a rock solid vibe all the time! Why can’t...Read full review »

This show is funny and has great guests. Pat Francis is a nice guy and his taste in music is definitely not awful.
Gompy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/21
Pat Francis seems to get the best out of his guests because he is an honest and genuine host that respects the artists. One of my favorite podcasts. Funny and entertaining music podcast with great hosts, guests and production.
vwismoovb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/20
Can be very good or can be very frustrating like when Pat and Murray spent 10 minutes or more talking about their poker game.
Bill9064 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/23/20
A great podcast with good music that I can here to listen to. Good humour too; and nothing less than five stars will do
sea2horses_uk via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/19/20
Rapidly becoming one of the few podcasts I’ll take the time to listen to. Pat is a great interviewer and he and his (intermittent) cohosts are pretty funny. Sorry if it’s you or someone you know who made that intro song, but man, it’s...not good. Sounds like a TV commercial theme for something...Read full review »

The more you listen, the more you realize Pat is kind of a jerk. He loves Pete "Im just doing 'research' Townsend but hates Michael Jackson? The guy has a house and a pool but solitics donations to "buy" equipment. He cant stop commenting on other men's appearance...Read full review »
Bert Kay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/20
Pat, Kyle, and their rotating cohosts and guests are brilliantly insightful and funny! They provide the laughs and present a library of songs known and unknown. Best episodes include the Bohemian Rhapsody episode (that David Ace knows his stuff!) and anytime Kyle gets angry at Train. Revision:...Read full review »

My favorite podcast! Pat is a great host and a wonderful interviewer. His guests always offer great insight and always gives me an appreciation for the music, even if I didn't before. His various co-hosts are great additions and his listener curatated episodes are excellent. Look at the...Read full review »

Always amusing and interesting.
Xeltic33 via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 10/13/20
With great music. And comedy. Making my way through every episode. Even though I like the rotating co-hosts I miss Gary Lucy.
Nitzilla via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/20
My go to podcast! Pat Francis and his rotating co-hosts present a wide variety of musical topics in a fun and knowledgeable way, and the variety of musical guests he gets on the show is amazing. If you love music (new and classic) and you love to laugh (if your lucky Paul Stanley might drop...Read full review »

Despite Pat's taste in music this is a fun and informative music podcast. The host is a great interviewer and keeps the conversation fresh and fun with every guest. It can get rock heavy (it's in the title) but Pat is open to all kinds of music and will listen to anything to give his two...Read full review »
Listener Matt Burkey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/20
Super big fan of many music-related podcasts, and Rock Solid is at the top of the heap. Great show, great hosts, great guests/topics. Pat and his crew of co-hosts always remind me of a Rock n Roll Cheers - a diverse cast of funny, jovial, characters who always make the listener feel right at...Read full review »

Just thought I write a lite review about your podcast! I am 29 years old, and grew up with all the Classic rock that we all know and love! There are songs I have never heard of, until I started listening to the show! Thank you Pat and the rest of the Rock Solid crew, you guys have been making my...Read full review »

I have been an avid listener and supporter of Rock Solid for many years now. Pat Francis is a great host, and the whole show feels very similar to the times I get together with my friends to talk about great music. Even when the subject of the show is an artist I don't care about, they still...Read full review »

The recent interview of guitarist Steve Stevens was excellent. The episodes where Pat’s enthusiasm for the topic or artist are always strong and this was no exception Pat was gracious and well prepared and Steve was highly engaged and humble. Overall it was very well done with skillful...Read full review »

1st episode I listened to & dumped it after 20 minutes. Horrible podcast🤬
5 1/2 years via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/20
I love this podcast. Pat is a great host. I love the rotating cohosts. I wish Christy was on more. Only thing I need is more Schmidt. He should be a regular cohost. I’ve discovered some great music through the podcast. I miss Kyle. The episodes with his kids and Pilar are some of my favorites.
HerbertLamont via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/20
When they do it with a bit of thought this is a reasonable show but jeez, more often than not it is like listening to 12 year olds reading Viz and having a farting competition. Like, if you have nothing to say, just don’t say anything. Puerile and quite often, just dull. Sorry. Has potential but...Read full review »
Blackinazuma via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/05/20
This podcast is an absolute blast. It’s like sitting around in your basement with your friends, laughing, talking, and listening to records. It’s incredibly comforting. They have opened my eyes to a ton of new music, and helped me re-discover old favorites. 100% recommend!
Ladymegatron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/20
I’ve been listening to several rock podcasts every week for years, but some are not always great. But with the Rock Solid Podcast, even if it’s not a stellar episode, I will still enjoy it. Every time. And there are so many reasons why. So check it out and see for yourself.
Ray V. Brocolli via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/20
I only started listening recently and I am really enjoying the show. Pat is a great host with a good mix of co-hosts, guests and topics. Some very funny stuff and great music too. Love it when Bruce drops in....1,2,3,4!
nickrob308 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/02/20
Migrated to Rock Solid from NNF and loved 95% of them (even with He Who Shall Nor Be Named). I love hearing bands I kind of ignored (like UFO) and wish there was a little more hard rock or metal but that's ok. Love the interviews, The only ones I skip are bands I am annoyed with.

Long time listener, first time reviewer here. Loved having Kyle back for the wedding episode. I missed his, “I didn’t come here for...” review jokes.
TheGeorgeCorrigan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/20
The most comprehensive, well-produced, and entertaining rock music podcast on iTunes. Pat is a fantastic host. Can’t recommend it enough. Look forward to every new episode.
MikeVernon97 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/13/20
Here's the thing about Rock Solid...Pat is great, his cast of co-hosts and contributers are great, and the creativity that goes into his themed episodes is great. You can't lose. But what I find so refreshing about the Rock Solid Podcast is it's love of music, no matter what the...Read full review »

House of P99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/20
If you like your music podcasts mixed with some humor I would highly recommend tuning in. Both the host and many of the co-hosts have either a past history in comedy or are currently working as comedians/comic writers. This podcast feels like a hang with a bunch of close friends every week....Read full review »
