We have done a lot of interviews at this stage of the podcast. As far as I can remember, nothing matches the fun that Sonny and I had with Lord Tracy’s frontman Terry Glaze on a Friday night sitting around the computer. Terry is a charismatic and funny dude who we loved hanging out with on Skype. We happen to love his music and we think you’ll enjoy this episode.
The term “desert island album” comes up often when folks who love music are conversing. If music is your main hobby or passion you probably can name 5 pretty easily. Many people go with, “Led Zeppelin IV”, “Appetite for Destruction”, “Kiss-Destroyer”, “Cheap Trick-at Budokan”, “Beatles-The White Album”, “Back in Black”….for my partner in crime STEVEN MICHAEL it’s “Van Halen 1”…. well, all the regular listeners know that I’m a bit off the beaten path on stuff like this…and although all the albums I just mentioned are incredible….one of my personal desert island albums is Lord Tracy’s “Deaf Gods of Babylon” released in 1989. – Sonny Pooni
Terry Glaze A Brief Overview
In the early 80’s, singer and guitarist Terry Glaze formed a friendship with fellow high schooler and musician Vincent Paul Abbott, and his kid brother Darrell Abbott, better known as Vinnie Paul and Dimebag Darrell of Pantera. The three shared a love of hard rock and metal music and, in the coming years, would put together the early version of Pantera, putting out three albums of spandex laden hard rock and metal music. I loved “Projects In The Jungle.” Terry Glaze would eventually leave the band and Phil Anselmo would replace Terry as the singer of Pantera. Pantera would go on to become the Heavy Metal Juggernaut that most of the world is familiar with today.
Terry left to join the band that became Lord Tracy, which to the majority of the world would be unknown, but to Steven and Sonny is a “hidden gem.” The band would put out “Deaf Gods Of Babylon” in 1989, an album of hard rock awesomeness and firmly planted as a “Growin’ Up Rock” album of their youth.
Episode Description

Where has Terry been? He sounds like fun. You guys did a great job interviewing this underrated entertainer.
He is a TON of fun and obviously as you heard in the episode, he’s been around recording and doing his own thing just a little local to the areas he is in. Glad you enjoyed it.
After leaving Pantera he formed Lord Tracy. He also does solo stuff. Check out all of Terry’s stuff from one of links below. Also checkout all Lord Tracy stuff on YouTube
For Sure – Terry and Lord Tracy are awesome!!
Holy smokes! I just heard the episode, went and checked out the Deaf Gods album and it’s AMAZING! This Terry guy is super talented. A little crazy, wait A LOT crazy but super talented LOL
NICE!!! Yes – He is awesomely talented and so much fun. Thanks so much for listening and checking out the episode. Enjoy Deaf Gods – It’s the bomb.
(Hopefully you can get this note to Terry) Terry, the Growin’ Up Rock interview is the best conversation I’ve heard in a while. Was that the funnest interview you’ve done? Seemed like you had a blast. Thank you for all of the music you’ve put out over the last 30+ years. Deaf Gods oF Babylon deserves to be a staple album in every rock fan’s collection. Rock on!
Hello,
Thanks so much for listening, I’m glad you enjoyed it. We had a blast doing it, and I have shared your comment with Terry. Thanks again and keep listening and keep rocking!!
