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

The youngest child of two blind parents,Pittsburgh-born multi-instrumentalist William Fitzsimmons wrote ‘Goodnight’,his second album,about the dark aftermath of his parents’ divorce.
Fitzsimmons has built up a huge cult following in the US,selling 30,000 records without even signing a record deal and receiving over 4 million plays on myspace. However,Goodnight has never enjoyed a formal UK release despite it being over two years since WF made the record.
Fitzsimmons heart felt marriage of folk and electronic music has granted him success amongst audiences’ young an old,citing everyone from James Taylor to Bob Dylan,Elliott Smith and Iron & Wine as influences.
The majority of the album features the backing vocals from Staten Island’s own Ingrid Michaelson. Ingrid is well publicised in the US for being the first unsigned artist to sell a million records,predominantly off the back of strong syncs in hit US drama Grey’s Anatomy. William’s television exploits have also been well received with exposure on US shows Grey’s Anatomy and One Tree Hill.
The new naimlabel.com download store will issue a free of charge 16bit FLAC/WAV download of Fitzsimmon’s ‘Everything Has Changed’ (promo edit) on 11th May to help promote the album and build some momentum around an already buzzing artist.
In conjunction with this WF will be visiting the UK to perform as much promo as possible during w.c. 11th May including gigs @ Bush Hall,London (13th May),Great Escape,Brighton (14th May),Bardens Boudior,London (15th May) and Regal Rooms,London (16th May) TBC.
William has just completed a US tour supporting Madeleine Peyroux,who is currently also enjoying UK success.
The Guardian described Goodnight as “one hell of an album” and WF’s third album ‘The Sparrow And The Crow’ (due for UK release in 2010) is currently enjoying critical acclaim in the US on the respected Sub-Pop label.
