2018 In Review

by Pete Sargeant | Dec 26, 2018

As usual, we take a look at the year’s happenings – or at least some of them – and bearing in mind that again we have lost many great people, not least dear friends during 2018.

Glen Matlock – Never Mind The Trivia

by Pete Sargeant | Jul 30, 2018

I never wanted to interview Malcolm McLaren, the shapeshifting one-time Sex Pistols manager, because as a would-be and sometimes successful manipulator of the media of his day (wouldn’t he have loved Twitter, SnapChat et al?

Michael Landau – Rock Bottom

by Pete Sargeant | Jan 10, 2018

Ace guitar man has played on a ton of albums, for all sorts of people. For this effort he has decided to put together a four-piece with him on guitar and vocal, drummer Alan Hertz, son Teddy Landau on bass and singer David Frazee. Great players, so as ever it’s down to the strength of the material to assess the record’s desirability.

Kyle Shutt – Doom Side Of The Moon

by Pete Sargeant | Dec 30, 2017

The Sword guitar player Kyle Shutt tackles the popular Pink Floyd album Dark Side Of The Moon. Fab idea or folly? Gov’t Mule got there first but in dub style, of course. He says he wanted to do a heavy version of Time and it all went from there…

David Crosby – Sky Trails

by Pete Sargeant | Dec 24, 2017

Following on from the airy trip of the previous record Lighthouse, this set sounds more like a performing band and indeed Croz has been out touring with a show based around this album.

Shane Richie – A Country Soul

by Pete Sargeant | Dec 23, 2017

A longtime singer and musician, Richie now mines his love of country and roots music on this new release. Doubtless encouraged by Bradley Walsh’s success with his recent lounge club records, Shane has the depth of knowledge to give this a crack.

Gov’t Mule – Coming Round Again

by Pete Sargeant | Dec 17, 2017

A new album from the hard-hitting but remarkably versatile Gov’t Mule is always welcome in these parts. We happily accepted an invitation to meet up once again with bandleader Warren Haynes. With a view to talking about the record content and related matters… Plus a recent sad passing. Thanks Warren for your time and Pete hopes you enjoy that Splinter Group album

Becca Stevens – Regina

by Pete Sargeant | Sep 3, 2017

‘Regina’…Latin for ‘queen’. One listen to this collection confirms that indeed Stevens is queen of what she is creating. Her involvement with David Crosby and his recent music attracted my attention. Crosby is free with his praise of her songs and singing. He knows a bit about both. Female voices are much in evidence on TV and radio at present, but not this kind of voice…..

Mollie Marriott – Back In Action

by Pete Sargeant | May 31, 2017

As Mollie gears up for a return to live performances and delivering a fresh set of material, the singer-songwriter daughter of The Small Faces and Humble Pie star Steve speaks to us about events and the future. To say that Miss Marriott is down to earth would be a great understatement…indeed our last encounter was in a field in Oxfordshire! Seems a good conversation starter…..

Quinn Sullivan – Midnight Highway

by Pete Sargeant | Apr 1, 2017

You want the best news about this label’s latest signing? – You’d hire him as a vocalist ! not to downplay his dextrous and very wide-ranging guitar skills but quite how he has attained such a rich and authoritative voice in his teens is pretty remarkable.

Eric Johnson – EJ

by Pete Sargeant | Jan 2, 2017

Texas guitar slinger Eric Johnson can pump out blues-rock riffs and solo’s soaked with delay with the best of them BUT on this release the ambience is pastoral and reflective to show another side to his skills.

The Sisterhood with special guests Laura Oakes and Catherine McGrath, The Lexington, King’s Cross,London, United Kingdom

by Pete Sargeant | Nov 29, 2016

We had reasonably high hopes for this show as we set off on a cold night for London. What we didn’t know was that the was to be The Sisterhood’s first-ever London headline appearance or that this would turn out to be a highlight of the year.

David Crosby – Lighthouse

by Pete Sargeant | Nov 15, 2016

Crosby’s art can take many musical forms. This release takes an overall mellow path but his history takes in a staggering range of moods and tempo’s. Take The Byrds’ Lady Friend – it bursts with raging drums, emphatic bass, ringing electric twelve string, an ominous staccato brass arrangement, a lyric of loss with no trace of self-pity
