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

Mozart - Sinfonia Concertante / Joseph Haydn - Violin Concertos
PERIOD STARS ON PERIOD STRADS!
The violin occupied Mozart
considerably in the period 1773-77, and he often performed on the
instrument himself, encouraged, of course, by his father. Leopold was
probably also the driving force behind Wolfgang's Sinfonia Concertante
in E flat major for violin and viola. He advised his son to master this
genre for public concerts; organisers were keen to programme it, since
the sinfonia concertante offered audiences the attractive spectacle of
rivalling soloists. Mozart's great example, Joseph Haydn, was passing
his days as court chapelmaster to one of the wealthiest noble families
in Hungary, the Esterházys. Thanks to the excellent musicians in
Haydn’s court orchestra, there was no end to the opportunities offered.
Haydn composed most of the approximately 45 concertos for various
instruments while he was employed by the Esterházy family, and
particularly in the period 1760-70.
“Pavlo and I had the extreme good fortune to play a Strad each! Generously loaned to us by the Royal Academy of Music for this project, we savoured every minute of having these esteemed and valuable instruments in our hands! 'Mine' is a proud instrument which demands careful negotiation and warming before it will expose it's beautiful colours. An amazing experience in itself to play an instrument like this, it was even more of an event when the two Strads met and 'spoke' to each other with a feeling of being acquainted, perhaps not for the first time...” Rachel Podger
