17 years old with incredible feel and technique. Getting lots of attention since her recent TV appearance on Jools Holland Annual Hootenany. As an aspiring guitarist for 50 long years, I despair...

Right in his zone. This LP may be the sleeper in his entire catalog.

RIP Tommy Smothers at 86. We all thought they were funny (back in more innocent times) not sure they would go over that well these days. Here he is with The Who on The Smothers Brothers Show.

Best when played late night and loud- blissed out Medieval Christmas trance music....

Took a chance and picked this up on Amazon. Its really good. Similar to Terry Reid's first couple LPs, Traffic, early Humble Pie/Spooky Tooth. Loads of non-lp tracks, alternates. demos. A must for...
His track "Seed" from the BB Blunder "Workers Playtime" LP reminds me a little of "Point Me At The Sky"..actually there's a fair few late 60's/early 70's British underground tracks in this...
Former members of The Action, Phil Collins favorite band. Both LPs are excellent- the first a prime slice of late 60's Brit psych (vaguely early Traffic-ish) and the second (Jug of Love) heavily...

Damn- sorry to hear this. Very talented and a nice guy. Many years ago I bought a signed Blossom Toes CD from him via his website and we corresponded a bit..
His musical recollections are...
Live 1994...hadn't lost a step...

Nice to see Mellow Candle getting some coverage here. Loudest Whisper's 1974 "Children of Lir" might appeal to some of the the same folks....

Legendary rock guitarist Steve Hackett will release his new studio album, "The Circus And The Nightwhale", on February 16, 2024, via InsideOut Music. A rite-of-passage concept album with a young...
Flawless performance, under rated and hugely influential on the British Invasion groups..

Nice little off the cuff run-through circa 1978 on the cusp of their late70's/early 80's resurgence.

If memory serves, his rhythm section ended up forming Paladin. Not sure how his vocal chords ever recovered from this one..

They reserved "Waterloo Sunset" for the limited LP version of "To The Bone"- they really should have included it and left off a warhorse like "You Really Got Me"- this version is great, Daves guitar...
The last track ever recorded by The Kinks circa 1994 chronicling Rays relationship with Chrissie Hynde...

Amusing little snippet from Robbie...

Finally got around to watching "Once We Were Brothers" (free on Tubi, I think) The "brothers" in the title really refers to the tight bond between Robbie and Levon more that any of the others....
If you don't care for The Dolls (I confess I was never a fan) then the hype around Johnny Thunders is even harder to swallow. Rock music critics of the era loved this stuff....

I vaguely recall when this video was in heavy rotation in 1991, mostly for Rachel Hunter- had no idea it was a Robbie Robertson tune. Robbie's take is alot more atmospheric but Rod knew how to take...
A huge part of The Kinks sound during his time with the band, as demonstrated here-

First track of their 1969 debut- Music From Big Pink meets Steppenwolf- amazing when you consider Peter Frampton and Jerry Shirley were teenagers...

Yup- all the comments are spot on. Lots of unfulfilled potential. This B-side pre-dates their post Frampton shift to boogie. The Black Crowes wish they could sound like this-
...
Yes, its a mixed bag and rather uneven output but the talent was undeniable- great clip of an apparently coked out Steve Marriott and Clem Clempson back in the day. A live staple in the 70's.

You couldnt give away Kinks records at this point- UK Jive, Think Visual, Phobia- but they were still awesome live. Total professionals...

Fair criticism that Howes classical stuff is a little faux (Steve Hackett is actually more authentic in playing acoustic period music). I think you have to be able to read music to really pull it...
New to me so maybe there's a few here who haven't seen it yet- great stuff...

Some recognition is mandatory. Born June 21st 1944. One of the true greats! First Kinks show at DAR Constitution Hall on the Sleepwalker Tour and saw loads after that . Man, these guys are gettin'...
