Hannah Aldridge – Live in Black and White 2020


This album is no ordinary live acoustic, as I found to my delight the album has been recorded and mixed to great effect finding a real sense of presence throughout.

The selection of songs fit together comfortably on the album, some of which also feature guest musicians that each subtlety adds to the overall ambiance.

Giant – Last of the Runaways [Rock Candy Remaster & Reload] 2020


Many may argue the album already sounded good in its original release: indeed, it was marvelously produced and the original CD sounds good. Also the Bad Reputation remaster is very good.However this Rock Candy remaster has something special, the whole record sounds ‘airy’, like a pristine quality vinyl LP brand new.

Deluxe Collector’s Edition / Fully Remastered Audio / 16 page full colour booklet, enhanced artwork with unreleased photos and interview. There is a long list of bands consisting of session musicians: Giant, founded by the brothers David & Dann Huff, with roots in the Westcoast session scene and previously with the successful Christian hard rock band White Heart. Alan Plasqua and Mark Spiro complemented the band. Terry Thomas, known for his work

Crash Street Kids – Collection 2005-2011,MP3


2012 album from the Rock ‘n’ Roll quartet. Sweet Creatures tells the story of two runaways that find each other on the street, and form a Bonnie-and-Clyde bond. Living together under the dark of night, they learn to survive by any means possible. In love with the danger, but in debt to their pimp, they blur the line between real love and love-for-a-living.
along their journey they encounter all that the city’s underbelly has to offer, including drug pushers, fellow prostitutes, transvestites, and more. As with the band’s three previous studio albums, the CSKs carry the echoes of Bowie, T. Rex and Alice Cooper in their make-up kits. The Crash Street Kids are truly at the top of their game with this album.

Southern Gentlemen [David T. Chastain] – S G Double 20 (2020)


High Recomended! SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN explodes upon the music scene with a burning mixture of old and new influences on their debut Cd EXOTIC DANCER BLUES. The band self describes the material as Very Heavy Blues Rock. The band features the guitar work and vocals of David T. Chastain and the powerhouse rhythm section of Kevin Kekes on bass and Dennis Lesh on drums.

David states, “Obviously listening to the material will bring back memories of the legendary 70s blues rock from such bands as early ZZ Top, Robin Trower, Hendrix and even some Skynyrd influences. We just play it a little heavier! Everyone always talks about the great rock guitar playing during that era and that is what I was trying to recreate. That was the style of music that I was first attracted to when I started playin

GRAVE FORSAKEN – THE FOOTSTEPS OF GOD (2020)


2020 has been a strange year, but if there’s one thing you can depend on, it’s the certainty that a new GRAVE FORSAKEN album is never far off. These four Aussie’s are always cooking up something new. When Grave Forsaken briefly reunited their original line-up in 2018 the plan was to record an album that harkened back to the early recordings. During the making of the album guitarist Elias Salmela made the decision to leave the band, paving the way for Luke Gallagher to return to the fold after a short absence from the line-up. Original Grave Forsaken members Vaughan Gregory, Matt Skipworth and Tim Steadman had recorded their parts when Luke came in and added his rhythm and lead guitar. The result is their impressive new album The Footsteps Of God. The band’s early classic metal influences a
