Hail Hail Rock 'n' Roll...

Last minute gig for me tonight.To be honest I never really paid much attention to these guys over the years but I was given a ticket and the support bands looked good so why not?...Well well well I didn't expect this they were so good with some great songs and lead singer Josh Todd is such an engaging frontman you just can't take your eyes off him.The venue was packed so occasionally the recording suffers from idiots who would rather discuss what they had for dinner last night than watch the gig....Jeez i hate these people...Oh well I still came away with a new favourite band...Enjoy,Ed.

Where Legends Dwell...

 

My flurry into Symphonic Metal continues 

I can even put up with the dreaded 

backing tapes and admit it does work 

within this genre of metal.

We had four bands giving it their all 

tonight to quite frankly a piss poor turnout, 

so a big high five to all of them.

Great night...Enjoy,Ed.

Someone Screaming My Name...

 Excellent FM Radio broadcast from

the Joe Lynn Turner fronted version of Rainbow.

From The Difficult To Cure Tour.

By this stage they were going all out

to become an all conquering AOR band.

With varying degrees of success.

Fascinating band due to the number of

members and the very different types

of Rock Band they became.

They Bought And Sold You...

 Here's another show from the 

Nescafe Blues Festival

back in 1995.

It's Jeff Healey a unique talent and much missed.

He could make that guitar do what he wanted

and let's not forget...what a voice.

A few covers in the set but you'd be

hard pressed to find a better cover of,

While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

Excellent sounding FM Radio Broadcast of Budgie

lengthy tracks full of heavyweight riffs mixed 

with a touch of Prog and even some 

 (Quo style) boogie.

An all-round very enjoyable show.

It's missing some of the first track,Electric Phase 

otherwise a pretty decent sounding show

four live Piledriver album

Got A Good Reason...

Standing In The Rain...

A BBC Radio broadcast Live at the Marquee,London 1991 

with Johnny Edwards on vocals.

  A  lineup of  Foreigner that always seems to be forgotten. 

They're on the Unusual Heat album tour.

 I personally thought it was a decent album 

but it didn't sell well and was to be the only one with Johnny Edwards.

A one track mp3 40 minutes long file.
