I have just added 20 new songs into high rotation in the playlist. Seventeen of the songs are from the following nine newly released classic rock albums:
Ringo Starr – What’s My Name … The Beatle drummer’s 20th solo studio album is arguably his best in a very long time. With guest artists the likes of Joe Walsh, Edgar Winter, Dave Stewart and Paul McCartney the album is well written, well played and a joy to the ears! Listen for the tracks Gotta Get Up To Get Down and Better Days. Read the review here.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Colorado … No band quite brings out the best in Neil Young like Crazy Horse. This album is no exception. The songs are furious, haunted and remorseful. Listen for the songs Olden Days and Think Of Me. Read the review here.
Jeff Lynne’s ELO – From Out Of Nowhere … This is only the second studio album from ELO is two decades, but the sound is unmistakably Jeff Lynne. Listen for the tracks Time Of Our Life, One More Time and Help Yourself. Read the review here.
Bruce Springsteen – Western Stars: Songs From the Film … This album is the soundtrack to the feature length film directed by Springsteen. The film features The Boss performing live all the songs from his most recent album, interspersed with narration about each song and footage of the Western landscape. Listen for a cover of the song Rhinestone Cowboy. Read the review here.
Van Morrison – Three Chords & The Truth … This album is the 74 year old Belfast Cowboy‘s sixth record in the last four years and the 41st in his storied career. It is also the first album to feature all-new original songs since 2012’s Born To Sing: No Plan B. Listen for the tracks Dark Night Of the Soul, Early Days and You Don’t Understand. Read the review here.
Myles Goodwyn – Friends Of The Blues 2 … The former singer/songwriter/guitar player for the multi-million selling rock band April Wine returns with his second album of blues music – written and performed with verve and passion. Listen for the songs Hip Hip and Help Me Baby. Read the review here.
Hawkwind – All Aboard The Skylark … This outsider band, that was on the cutting edge of psychedelic-punk-space rock, has over 30 albums to their credit. This album has only one remaining original member (Dave Brock) – yet the sound has not changed from their halcyon days. Listen for the track The Fantasy of Faldum. Read the review here.
Stephen Bishop – We’ll Talk About It Later In The Car … This singer/songwriter’s album started out as a demo project of songs written at the start of his career 40 years earlier, but ended up a fully produced, brand new album. Listen for the songs Like Mother Like Daughter and One In A Million Girl. Read the review here.
The Magpie Salute – High Water II … This is the second album from former Black Crowe Rich Robinson‘s band. Joined by fellow Black Crowes Marc Ford and Sven Pipien, the band delivers a thick stew of psychedelia-tinged Americana Rock & Roll. Listen for the track In Here. Read the review here.
