## Resource

A few weeks ago, we had our first episode of Unsolved Mysteries of Rock and Roll, and I got hundreds of requests for another episode. So today, we're pulling back the curtain on some of the most jaw-dropping true crime tales from the archives of popular music. Including one guitar legend who rolled up on the front lawn of a Beverly Hills mansion in a fully armed military assault vehicle… He had left his gear there during an audition, and the lead singer wouldn’t return his calls. When you find out what happened next, you’ll be blown away… this other musician nearly was. Then there’s the 80s music video that ignited a citywide crime epidemic. Thousands of emblems from a famous car brand were being stolen from car hoods every day because of this band. These three New Yorker musicians had no idea they’d started a crime wave. And finally… a female rocker was on her way to superstardom when she was found strangled in an alley with her own Merch. After years of painstaking investigations, the culprit was finally found. Find out what happened. Let’s get into it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
