Tales Of Time is a live performance of Joe Bonamassa’s studio album, Time Clocks, a sprawling musical undertaking filmed in August 2022 at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. His virtuoso guitar style, with his unique blues-rock technique and flair, elevates the evening’s performance to a stratospheric level. The visual spectacle of Red Rocks was almost dwarfed by the incredible imagery of the show’s visual backdrop, which highlighted the beauty of the live music.

“Black Diamonds” sees L.A. Guns continuing on the same inspiring sonic journey that they’ve been on with their most recent studio albums since the reunion of original members Tracii Guns (guitar) and Phil Lewis (vocals). With no interest in solely revisiting their ’80s glam metal origins, the 21st century L.A. Guns is at once familiar, but also an evolution. The grit, anger, and danger that they always had remains, while their ’70s hard rock influences shine through. Continue reading “L.A. Guns – Black Diamonds (2023)”

While the speed-freak adrenaline heaviness and shrouded occult mystery of Tyranny and Mutation is the watermark for Blue Öyster Cult’s creative invention, it is Secret Treaties that is widely and critically regarded as the band’s classic. Issued in 1974, Secret Treaties is the purest distillation of all of BÖC’s strengths. Here the songs are expansive, and lush in their textures.

Coming off such conceptual, theatrical, sleazy hard rock records as the massively successful School’s Out (1972) and Billion Dollar Babies (1973), the Alice Cooper group decided that their next release would be more along the lines of their earlier, more straightforward work (à la Love It to Death). While Muscle of Love was a gold-certified Top Ten success, it performed below expectations (their previous two albums peaked at number two and number one, respectively) and would unfortunately prove to be the original Alice Cooper band’s last studio album together.

Label: Bad Reputation | France | Cat#: BAD221201 | Genre: Hard Rock

Digitally remastered edition of this 1981 release. Formed in 1979 by Ottawa-born Ron Chenier, singer/ guitarist, recruited players and began honing their chops doing small clubs in and around the Toronto area. Fleet Street was the band’s third album. “Double Or Nothing” again showcased Chenier’s talent for writing slick, guitar riffs, while “Thunder In Rock” was easily the year’s best tune on the radio waves. With the clever addition of a sax solo, “Thunder In Rock” is probably most synonymous with Fist’s music, if any song is at all. Continue reading “Fist – Fleet Street (1981) [2022 Remastered]”

Alternating hard-driving blues-rockers with country-folk numbers, Humble Pie neatly showcases the two sides of this band’s personality on their first release for a major American label and third album overall. All of the elements are in place for the sound that would reach its studio peak with the next release, Rock On, and culminate with the classic Live at the Fillmore album.
