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

“A rich-voiced and expressive singer. Her choice of material is typically enterprising.
The Observer
Gill Manly is a jazz singer who has been described as an amalgam of Bessie Smith and Sarah Vaughan. Her debut album on Linn Records “With a Song in My Heart” features performances by trumpeter Guy Barker and singer Mark Murphy.
• A stalwart of London’s live music scene for many years, Gill Manly has returned to the recording studio due to popular demand from champions such as Mark Murphy.
• “With a Song in My Heart” reflects a period of maturation and reflection. It is a gentle and flawless selection of jazz standards enhanced by the virtuoso playing of Guy Barker on trumpet.
• “With a Song in My Heart” sees Manly reclaim her place amongst the current jazz vocalists who have long cited her as an inspiration and a unique interpreter of the jazz singers’ vast cannon.
• Gill Manly has worked with the cream of UK jazz including Claire Martin, Ian Shaw, Barb Jungr, Clark Tracey and Robin Aspland, Alec Dankworth and Dave O’Higgins.
• Gill was nominated for “Best Jazz Vocalist” at the British Jazz Awards in 1995.
Gill is a regular performer at key jazz venues around London (she was recently invited to honour Dudley Moore at Ronnie Scott’s) and will launch her new album at Pizza Express Jazz Club on 17th February 2009
A jewel in the crown of British Jazz for many years, but unrecorded since 1994, “With a Song in My Heart” see Gill Manly make a welcome and decisive return to the studio.
