The Master’s Apprentices – Discography 1966-2009 (16 albums), MP3


If “Easybeats” was considered the Australian answer to the “Beatles”, then “Masters Apprentices” with its ruffiness was quite consistent with the local version of the “Rolling Stones”. Masters Apprentices entered the 70s with the title of “the most popular Australian team”, and this status was reinforced by an album with the quite justified name “Masterpiece”.

SHY – Reflections : The Anthology 1983-2005 (2xCD remastered) , MP3


During the mid-to-late 1980s, Britain’s homegrown melodic hard rock scene was blessed with an embarrassment of riches. No one who lived through the era could forget the hook-friendly quality of (takes a deep breath…) FM, Tobruk, Strangeways, Dare, Terraplane, Lionheart, Heavy Pettin’, Airrace, Bronz, Virginia Wolf, Kooga, Robin George, etc, or indeed the subject of this two-CD retrospective, Birmingham’s own SHY.

Unlike many of the aforementioned acts, however, Shy could easily be distinguished from the pack. And they still can.
As requested, here’s ”Reflections; The Anthology 1983-2005”, the 2-CD set covering the story of these impressive melodic hard rockers, at places AOR of the highest order. T

Minus One – Red Black White 2018 Reissue 2023, MP3+FLAC

Lion’s Pride is reissuing the out of print MINUS ONE album ”Red Black White”, the band which members formed part of Glenn Hughes crew during a tour in Europe. ”Red Black White” is an exciting mix of melodic rock clearly ’80s inspired, yet providing a breath of fresh air to the genre via clever arrangements and some electronic beats / FX.

dayThe album consists of eleven songs, one of these a cover – a modernised version of Lesley Gores’ 1963 hit ‘You Don’t Own Me’. Some of the original compositions like “Girl” are playful and catchy, while others such as “Take Me Away‘ started life as an airline jingle. The opening track “The Greatest” talks about people’s delusions, and rocks with style and a punchy pulse.<
