Sometimes life happens… and sometimes death happens. Everyone in the rock world was shocked to hear of Taylor Hawkins's untimely passing on March 25, 2022. We didn’t know the man, but certainly thought a lot of him as a phenomenal musician who really was the driving force behind the Foo Fighters as well as modern rock n’ roll in general. From videos and documentaries, he seemed like a really cool guy and sweet dude. This week we pay tribute to the smilin’ heavy hitter and a hell of a singer, the only way we know how, by not playing a single note from the Foo Fighters. 

New to InObscuria? It’s all about digging up obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal from one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In this episode, we will focus on Taylor’s solo material, guest appearances, and side projects. If there is one positive thing to come from this sadness, it would be that all of his great music gets the exposure it deserves.

Songs this week include:

1. Dave Grohl & Taylor Hawkins – “2112 Overture” from RUSH, Rock Hall Induction Ceremony (2013)
2. Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Shapes Of Things” from Get The Money (2019)
3. Brian May – “Cyborg” from Another World (1998)
4. Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Louise” from Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders(2006)
5. Coheed & Cambria – “No World For Tomorrow” from Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow(2007)
6. Taylor Hawkins – “Southern Belles” from Kota (2016)
7. The Birds Of Satan – “Wait Til Tomorrow” from The Birds Of Satan (2014)
8. Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Don’t Have To Speak” from Red Light Fever(2010)
