Cray found himself in some pretty intimidating company for this Grammy-winning blues guitar summit meeting, but he wasn’t deterred, holding his own alongside his idol Albert Collins and Texas great Johnny Copeland. Cray’s delivery of Muddy Waters’ rhumba-rocking “She’s into Something” was one of the set’s many highlights. Continue reading “Albert Collins / Robert Cray / Johnny Copeland – Showdown!

The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys marked the commercial and artistic apex of the second coming of Traffic, which had commenced in 1970 with John Barleycorn Must Die. The trio who made that album were augmented by three others (Ric Grech, Jim Gordon, and “Reebop” Kwaku Baah) in the interim, though apparently the Low Spark sessions featured varying combinations of these musicians, plus some guests.

Dennis DeYoung - 26 East Vol. 2 (2021) [Japanese Edition]

Dennis DeYoung is back with the second volume of his fond farewell to recorded music, “26 East, Vol. 2.” As with the preceding volume, “26 East, Vol. 2” once again hints strongly at DeYoung’s legendary rock roots with Styx. A fitting goodbye and a final signature on an outstanding body of work. Continue reading “Dennis DeYoung – 26 East Vol. 2 (2021) [Japanese Edition]”

The Iveys – Maybe Tomorrow (1969) [1992, Remastered]

The Iveys - Maybe Tomorrow (1969) [1992, Remastered]

The story is well-known: south Wales pop group, the Iveys, are discovered by the Beatles’ aide-de-camp Mal Evans, who not only signs them to Apple Records but produces their first sessions. Their first single, the glorious Bee Gees-like ballad “Maybe Tomorrow,” is released in November 1968, yet it unaccountably stiffs. Disheartened, Apple shelves the planned U.S./U.K. release of the Iveys’ debut album, though it does eventually sneak out in Japan and Germany.

ABBA – Voyage (2021)

ABBA - Voyage (2021)

ABBA kind of stumbled their way into Voyage, their first album in 40 years. In 2016, the group began working on ABBAtars, a virtual concert based on the band’s blockbuster 1979 tour and featuring 3D renditions of Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, Agnetha Fältskog, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.

Damon Albarn conceived The Nearer the Fountain, More Pure the Stream Flows — his second solo album, arriving seven years after Everyday Robots — as an orchestral ode to his adopted homeland of Iceland. Albarn’s plans were scuppered by the COVID-19 pandemic, so he altered his approach, adapting and altering the material he wrote in Iceland in January 2020 with the aid of two longtime collaborators: Simon Tong, the guitarist in the Good, the Bad & the Queen, and Mike Smith, an auxiliary player in both Blur and Gorillaz.

The Doobie Brothers – Liberté (2021)

The Doobie Brothers - Liberté (2021)

Out on the road in the 2020s, the Doobie Brothers feature Michael McDonald, but when it comes time for the group to cut a record, the band whittles down to the trio of Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons, and John McFee. Naturally, this means Liberté — the Doobies’ first album of new original material since 2010’s World Gone Crazy — sounds closer to a refurbished version of Toulouse Street or The Captain and Me than Takin’ It to the Streets; there’s no funky soft rock or smooth blue-eyed soul, just a lot of straight-ahead rock & roll.

A rock fan throughout his teen years, he began writing songs while earning a master’s degree at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Continue reading “Boston – Discography (1976-2014)”
