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.


The Express - VERDICT 4/5
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 - Holy moly.com

       Messiaen - Organ Works (dvd)
    2008 was the centenary of Messiaen’s birth, and this 2 DVD set of a selection of his organ music is a superb introduction for those new to his music and an essential purchase for all organ aficionados. Messiaen wrote in many genres, chamber, orchestral, piano solo, and enriched greatly the organ repertoire of the 20th century.

    Although Debussy and Ravel influenced his earliest works, orientalism and famously the songs of birds were life long influences and a source of fascination to him) Messiaen became a significant influence upon avant-garde composers such as Boulez and Stockhausen.

    You can sample Tanke’s approach to Messiaen, which is influenced by his study of Buddhist faith and philosophy, on YouTube (keywords: Tanke and Messiaen). The technology afforded by DVD allows the listener to view from several angles, including underneath the bench to see Messiaen’s ferociously mobile pedal parts at first feet, as it were.
