The Pirates – Shakin’ At The Beeb: BBC Sessions 1976-1978 (2007) [2CD]

The Pirates - Shakin' At The Beeb: BBC Sessions 1976-1978 (2007) [2CD]

The Pirates — guitarist Mick Green, bassist Johnny Spence, and drummer Frank Farley — cut their teeth in the mid-’60s as the backing band for British rock belter Johnny Kidd, but when Kidd died in an auto accident in 1966, their career went into a tailspin and they broke up a few years later. However, in the mid-’70s the Pirates were encouraged by the success of tough R&B acts like Dr. Feelgood and the Count Bishops to pick up their instruments and give it another go, and for a few years they earned a reputation as one of the tightest and most feral rock & roll bands in the U.K. Continue reading “The Pirates – Shakin’ At The Beeb: BBC Sessions 1976-1978 (2007) [2CD]”

The Glove – Blue Sunshine (1983) [1990 Reissue]

The Glove - Blue Sunshine (1983) [1990 Reissue]

This one-off collaboration between the Cure’s Robert Smith and Siouxsie & the Banshees’ Steven Severin resulted in an eccentric, and at times incompatible, mix of psychedelic sounds wrapped around alternative ’80s pop. Writers Smith and Severin’s more eccentric tendencies are as likely to evoke pictures of a carnival as a funereal march, but the backbone rests largely on tightly constructed tunes with occasional forays into the experimental.

Richard Wright – Wet Dream (1978)

Richard Wright - Wet Dream (1978)

Following the release of the 1977 album Animals and its accompanying “In the Flesh” tour, Pink Floyd went on hiatus, having become popular enough to support solo albums by bandmembers who were inclined to make them. Guitarist David Gilmour and keyboard player Richard Wright were. For his album, Wright assembled some of the backing musicians who had been accompanying Pink Floyd for years, in particular reed player Mel Collins and guitarist Snowy White.

Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga – Love For Sale (2021) [Deluxe Edition]

Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga - Love For Sale (2021) [Deluxe Edition]

Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga recorded Love for Sale, their second duet album, with the knowledge that it was likely the last from Bennett. Back in 2016, two years before the sessions for Love for Sale started, Bennett was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. By the time Love for Sale was released in 2021, he’d officially retired from live performances. The Gaga collaboration wasn’t billed as Bennett’s final album, but given his health and advanced age (he turned 95 in 2021), Love for Sale is more likely than not a farewell.

John Mayer – Sob Rock (2021) [Japanese, Blu-Spec CD2]

John Mayer - Sob Rock (2021) [Japanese, Blu-Spec CD2]

John Mayer evokes the hushed professionalism of ’80s adult-contemporary rock on his all-too-breezy eighth studio album, 2021’s Sob Rock. Mayer has always worn his influences on his sleeve, often bringing together the bluesy fret work of Eric Clapton with the yearning singer/songwriter sincerity of James Taylor. He’s also made no secret of how much the sound of mid- and late-’80s pop/rock has informed his own work, and albums like 2006’s Grammy-winning Continuum and 2012’s Born and Raised have found him drawing upon the work of icons like Sting, Peter Gabriel, and Neil Young.

Adele - 30 (2021) [Japanese Edition]
