Sandy Denny & The Strawbs
|
LEGEND surrounds this alliance between the first lady of British folk and the much-loved Strawbs, which many now think of as the original British rock-folk album.
It’s an endearing yet strange mix of Denny’s ethereal, fluting voice and melancholy material and The Strawbs’ more knockabout folk.
Songs such as Who Knows Where The Time Goes and Tell Me What You See In Me are flawless while the original album with out-takes and unreleased demos make it perfect for all music fans.

Joan Jett - At the 100 Club
|
Joan Jett is mesmerizing, a consummate
performer and musician who can still rock out with the best of
them
Distorted magazine review of the 100 club show - published
16/06/2010
As she led the charge into a singalong of
''I love Rock''n''Roll'', which has been her calling card for almost 30 years, Jett
denied her fans not a milligram of the simple, unthreatening pleasure the song
can bring, emitting a series of fabulous yowls. She was a sound performer, a
hearty singer, and she had a vital quality, which we rarely associate with rock
- decorum. - The Daily Telegraph review of the 100 club show -
published16/06/2010
Why did we ever care about Courtney Love
when we had Joan Jett? She''s been missing from this country for too long

Retrospective (Anthology 1970 - 2009)
Beautiful lead singer Sonja Kristina and violin virtuoso Darryl Way were the kingpins of a group that caused a sensation with its innovative music and a striking image in the sexy Seventies. Curved Air was a highly musical combo that deserved its Prog Rock status. However, they were also hailed as pop stars when the sultry ‘Back Street Luv’ was a Top 5 hit in 1971.
That hit song is among 28 tracks on a superb introduction to the life and times of Curved Air, a band that underwent lots of changes during its hectic career. Their experimental blend of classical themes, electronic sounds and pop/rock energy won them many fans that still remain loyal supporters. Most of the songs on this essential ‘Best Of’ CD are from such albums as ‘Air Conditioning’, ‘Second Album’, ‘Phantasmagoria’, ‘Air Cut’, ‘Midnight Wire’, ‘Airborne’ and Love Child’, together with 3 more recent works from Sonja Kristina’s MASK recordings ’Heavy Petal’ and ’Technopia’.
Curved Air showcased many top musicians during its career, notably Francis Monkman, Eddie Jobson and Stewart Copeland. They all make important contributions to the group’s sound. But watch out for the constant ‘X-Factor’ – the crystal clear vocals of Sonja Kristina on such songs as ‘Young Mother’, ‘Melinda (More Or Less)’ and ‘The Dancer’.
