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

‘This extraordinary project confirms the robust health and endlessly varied landscape of Britain’s new music. There is no other document anywhere that has given such a snapshot of an artistic community that,while comprised of a hundred different ways of expressing itself,is of one voice when it comes to creative energy.’ JOHN ADAMS
To mark its 20th Anniversary in 2009 NMC Recordings has commissioned the NMC Songbook. Nearly 100 composers,ranging from the country’s most highly regarded figures to the younger generation of emerging talents,have each written a song,loosely themed on ‘Britain’ and scored for single voice or duet and a range of accompanying instruments. Songs are interspersed with instrumental interludes from an arrangement of a Galliard by Thomas Morley,specially made for the Songbook by NMC’s Executive Producer,composer Colin Matthews.
The songs have been set to text chosen by the composers and cover a vast array of subjects,from traditional poems by Blake and Byron through to a list of the Kings and Queens of England,extracts from a National Trust brochure,chants from the Leyton Orient terraces,a whisky recipe,and a colourful rant about our consumerist society. · The first recording to be made at the new state-of-the-art concert hall at Kings Place,London
4-CD set with special packaging and a 60-page booklet.
