Morganway / Sirena Grace / Me & Deboe (Discovery Talent 2 Showcase), May 2019, 229 Club, London, United Kingdom
For some time I had been promising myself I would check out Norwich act Morganway, encouraged by their PR and management. Tonight is a show I can make – a tad steadily post my surgery – so I head to town and find a sofa.

Read MoreJon Allen – My Blues Top Ten
Is there such a thing as dark honey? It’s surely to be found in the affecting vocals of Jon Allen but his songwriting talent is the sustaining factor in his career.

A singer’s singer, knowledgeable and melodic BUT with that jazzy feel that enables her to bring a freshness to her material. Just Listen To This had the chance to speak with Mari at her Cornbury Festival appearance. Her answers to our questions give a clue as to how she has sustained a career, thank you Ms Wilson…
Read MoreAustin Gold – Our Blues Top Ten
Pete Sargeant asked English blues-rockers Austin Gold to tell JLTT which recordings really turned them on, so here are their picks. Pete is a champion of democracy, so it’s two from each group member. Thanks, lads!

Read MoreCornbury Music Festival 2018, July 2018, Great Tew Park, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
A phoenix-style return to love for 2018 – and beyond – found us Cornbury fans trekking back to the middle of nowhere (aka the Tews) for more music and entertainment . And some winceworthy ‘comedy’..It’s quite Ok driving around this area in the day and we found the signposting somewhat better this year. At night, driving around is hideous, for a stranger to the area. Whatever the expenditure on facilities in this neck of the woods, it sure ain’t going on lighting!
Read MoreZZ Top – Cinco No.2 The Second Five LPs (Vinyl)
Here is the second box of vinyl treasures from the hard-rockin’ trio. A great way to own five proper classic albums, each of which rings the changes and entertains. The records are also an educational exercise for anyone learning guitar bass or drums.
Read MoreMy Indigo -My Indigo
There’s a rather unusual inspiration to this release, leading to an album that both had to be made and is something of a left turn. The act is fronted by Sharon den Adel, star vocalist and songwriter with Within Temptation, well-known to conneisseurs of Female Fronted Symphonic Metal groups.

Read MoreVarious Artists Strange Angels – In Flight With Elmore James
When Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac formed and started gigging, they were one of the first acts that my pals and I regularly saw play. In my recent chat with Mick Fleetwood (searchable on this site) we speak in depth about those days.
Read MoreMick Fleetwood – A Mac Book – at last!
Working with boutique publishers Genesis, a book project has now been completed, delivering a truly delicious and brilliantly-illustrated tome on the early days of Fleetwood Mac and named Love That Burns.
Read MoreStevie King – Young Man’s Blues
He’s 21, he loves his music, he is aiming at the top. Here, Just Listen To This pitches a hatful of questions to this young artist. Although we cannot share Stevie’s love of Bono, we can share his responses, to create a picture of what makes this player tick. Thank you Stevie!
Read MoreDixie Chicks – DCX MMXVI
Sooner or later a great live act will be tempted to get the best of their stuff out on a CD / DVD set and here is the country-rock trio’s offering on three discs. These performances were recorded on a set of US and Canadian dates and it sounds as though they were fun. Selling 30 million albums must teach you something, in this case it was plainly how to entertain and put together a fine setlist.
Read MoreLittle Big Town – The Breaker
Well just look at those titles, readers – very Brian Wilson/Beach Boys, are they not ?
But this talented quartet (adding a band for touring) can play many instruments and all sing lead, so they have their own thing going.

Is it really forty years since onetime Stone Poneys singer Linda Ronstadt released this record?!

Read MoreJames Montgomery – Drawing On An Icon
Harpist and singer James leads The James Montgomery Blues Band and he and Pete share the same main inspirational player from their earliest days – Mr Paul Butterfield. However the latest album on Cleopatra Records blues imprint shows that the band has no fear of stepping forward from the Chicago master’s style to channel their own ideas…
Read MoreThe Hallows
This three-piece band formed in London in 2014 and have individually cited Tori Amos, The Smashing Pumpkins and The Foo Fighters as influences on their rock sound. With their debut album Of Time and Tides scheduled for a summer release and several live dates being finalized, Pete sat down with the band for a customised set of interview questions. Here are their responses…
Read MoreFleetwood Mac – Tango In The Night (2017 2-CD Edition)
With its tropical dusk artwork and by now steady(ish) band lineup, the pop-rock edition of Fleetwood Mac was enjoying major success in the charts and releasing some jewel singles for radio, to boot.
Read MoreDan Owen – A Craftsman At Work
Dan Owen is one of those musicians who’s material is incredibly haunting and personally stays with you much like his contemporary Ben Montague. 2016 is a big year for Dan with the release of his new EP ‘Open Hands and Enemies’ on LAB Records, sold-out headline London shows and various special guest tour appearances. We sat down with him for a chat about his love of guitar, touring with Birdy, his friendship with Mick Fleetwood and his hometown of Shrewsbury. Enjoy…
