Rock You Like a Hurricane
The Kiss founding member and all-round rock expert spins his favourite tunes, including Ozzy Osbourne, Rush, Van Halen and Grand Funk Railroad.
The Demon of Rock is back - Gene Simmons presents a new series of I Love It Loud on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Radio 2.
Gene Simmons, co founder of the most successful recording rock band in America - KISS - returns to Radio 2 to play more of the music that 'makes my blood boil', Classic Rock.
In this episode, Gene features tracks artists such as Ozzy Osbourne, Rush, Van Halen, and Grand Funk Railroad.
He also has fun with a new feature 'Gene Splicing' where he mashes up hard rock and heavy metal covers of old standards, such as punker Joey Ramones' version of Louis Armstrong's What a Wonderful World.
Throughout the series Gene recollects personal encounters with the artists featured, sometimes as a colleague like when he discovered Van Halen and produced their first demo and sometimes as a fan.
