Review: Taj Mahal en Keb’ Mo’ – Room On The Porch
‘Room On The Porch’ is een zeer goed mainstream getint -en dus prima beluisterbaar- album is, dat het succes van ‘TajMo’ minstens zal evenaren en mogelijk zal overtreffen.

De originele bezetting is weer bijeen en het Matt Schofield Trio laat er geen gras over groeien. Meer dan blues, want onder meer jazz-achtige muzikale uitstapjes worden niet geschuwd.

Het bleef nog lang gezellig in en buiten de Boogie Barn. Ik hoorde alleen maar lovende woorden over dit optreden en die kan ik alleen maar beamen!

‘Live From Baloise Session’ is a wonderful guitar album and highlights everything that made Gary Moore the blues “master;” a spectacular late-period live performance by this deathless guitar picker for sure!!
Review: Flavium – Plays Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac
Alle songs zijn herkenbaar, maar klinken door een ander arrangement toch weer anders dan het origineel. Dus geen klakkeloos kopiëren maar echt een eigen versie van deze klassieke songs.

This Rockpalast appearance by Gary Brooker on February 18, 1983 in Hamburg’s Markthalle is unique because – it’s hard to believe – the singer, keyboardist and pianist from Procol Harum actually only gave a single solo concert with songs from his two solo albums in his long career.
