A singer-songwriter who more than merits the title. After some time waiting, finally a disc has landed that features words that are really worth a listen – a close listen. These are not just tales of […]

Dion “Stomping Ground”

November 29, 2021 Russell Murphy 0
Classic stomping from a living legend. Here’s a guy that should need no introduction, an artist who has been prolific as a rock and roll artist, a folk singer-songwriter in the 60s, and indeed since that […]

Bruce Cockburn “Greatest Hits (1970-2020)”

November 26, 2021 Tim Martin 0

Interview: Hank Alrich and his sonic explorations

Like the old sailors of yore, Hank Alrich sure knows how to spin a yarn, though I doubt his are made up or heavily stretched. They keep your attention. I would contentedly sit in an armchair […]

George Mann and Si Kahn “Mayday!”

An old-styled folk protest album from two past masters of the genre which skewers the current administration with acerbic lyrics. This is George Mann and Si Kahn’s second album working together following the release of Labor […]
