You've probably wondered about your fave rock bands, "what were they known as before they hit the Big Time?" In this episode we take a look at some of the artists who were called something different before changing their name and becoming rock icons. Our show this week is entitled "Rat Salad", and believe it or not, Van Halen once used that handle due to the fact that they played a lot of Black Sabbath covers in their early days (Rat Salad was a song done by Sabbath on their Paranoid album.) Therefore, we start off Episode 426 with VH, although not doing that particular song, in a tune from Fair Warning. As the Who (known previously as The Detours and The High Numbers) once said, "Long Live Rock"! Poster: https://captainmaniacgraphics.files.wordpress.com/2022/07/colinepisode426_rat-salad.jpg
