A Few of My Favourite Tyneside Bands
Introduction A lot of these bands are no longer with us but all of them were worth seeing when they were performing. A lot are still going as well so all is not lost. A couple such as Bon Jordi, Radge Against The Machine and Benwell Floyd are not included because they are from a decade back and I have not heard of them recently.

Ten Succulent Slices of Little Feat
Introduction I am not sure when I first heard Little Feat, it must have been in the seventies and I did like their music. They had their own brand of Americana similar to The Band or The Grateful Dead and are still going today with some original members.

Favorite songs adult playlist (part 5) Country
Let’s start with Mr. Garth Brooks who had several songs banned from radio because of the content. This was in the 1990’s and I believe this is when the political correctness police started rear its ugly heads. If you are listening to this concert his fans know the words to his songs and do sing along. This one is the thunder rolls.

Clare Torry and the Great Gig. Top Story - August 2022.
I have always been fascinated with the stories behind those moments in the arts when one person, event, change, movement or accident created something very new and exciting; something that no one else could have done. This is the story of one woman who does not have the level of fame that is equal with her role in popular music history. There might be some fanatics out there who do know her and even love her, but I have had too many responses over the years when I mention this story gape and feel as though they are learning something new and exciting. I hope that this adds to the story of one of my favourite groups and that you also feel as though you have discovered something new.

No Pussyfooting
The Mirrored Blue Room How Do You? Talk about an album that has no formal tunes and is just sounds. This is what I am trying to do with “No Pussyfooting” by Robert Fripp and Brian Eno. Robert Fripp is the guitarist and main man with progressive rock band King Crimson and Brian Eno began his mainstream exposure as Roxy Music’s non-musician specialising in electronics and treatments. Brian Eno is credited with the invention of Ambient Music when he was ill listening to a record but the sound was too low but he couldn’t get up to turn it up slightly but he could hear the music or sound in the distance.

The Catman part IV
Peter and Ace saw the opportunity of making good money with the Reunion tour. Ace was not doing much with his band “Frehley’s Comet” and jumped right in without hesitation. If you ever wondered how Gene and Paul got so rich, the “Reunion” tour is the answer.

The Catman part III
“Destroyer”, “Rock and Roll over” and “Love Gun” translated into big success for the band and specially Peter. Kiss was selling lots of records, playing on big venues, lady luck was on their side. On his personal life, not that much, everything that glitters is not gold.

Iggy Pop Is The Passenger. Top Story - August 2022.
Introducing The Passenger I have always been a fan of Iggy Pop ever since The Stooges. I loved “The Idiot” his first David Bowie collaboration, but the follow-up, “Lust For Life” was jam-packed with amazing songs like the title track, “Success” and for me, most importantly “The Passenger” written by Ricky Gardiner, the lead guitarist on the album.
