The Isley Brothers & Santana – Power Of Peace

I have just added 11 new tracks into high rotation – most of which are brand new 2017 recordings, but a couple were recorded way back in 1972 and were finally released to the world late last year. Tune in now and listen for new songs from:

Wonderwheel is a band that featured future Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones and the album also featured a guest appearance by George Harrison – but for some unknown reason, the record company did not see fit to release it until last year. Read the review here.

New Chuck Berry and Fleetwood Mac (Almost)

Lindsey Buckingham Christine McVie
Lindsey Buckingham Christine McVie

I have just added 4 new classic rock tracks into high rotation.

First, I have added 3 additional tracks from the long-awaited “almost” Fleetwood Mac album – which became a self-titled release from Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie. It features Mick Fleetwood and John McVie in the rhythm section, but with Stevie Nicks declining to join the project, I guess they didn’t feel it was right to call it a Fleetwood Mac album. Nevertheless, the album features some sparkling pop nuggets. Listen for the new tracks Carnival Begin, Red Sun and Gone Too Far. Read the review here.

Also, listen for a track from the late Chuck Berry‘s last album of original material. Planned before his unfortunate demise – the project shows why the man was one of the architects of rock n’ roll. Listen for the track Wonderful Woman. Read the review here.
