In this heartfelt episode of Boomerocity, host Randy Patterson chats with legendary guitarist, songwriter, and producer Rick Hirsch (of Wet Willie fame) about his deeply personal involvement in bringing to life Seven Levels — the final album by his lifelong friend and musical brother, Tommy Talton.

Rick opens up about the emotional and creative journey of finishing Tommy’s last work, the stories behind the songs, and the enduring spirit that defined their decades-long friendship. From their early days in the Southern rock scene to this moving final collaboration, Hirsch honors Talton’s legacy with authenticity, humor, and heart.

This episode is more than a tribute — it’s a celebration of love, loss, and the unbreakable bond of musicians who made history together.
