Watch Out,Watch Out...

He Went He Saw He Shared...Here's Ed!

With a couple of albums and tours under their belt

they decided to get on the road again,

with a Motorhead set which made me and 

the packed out Academy very happy indeed.

Odd start though Phil walks on and does a guitar solo.

Then his Bastard Sons join in and proceed to smash the

place up with 70mins of Motorhead classics...Brilliant Night!

or 

Mediafire

 

We Need A Storm To Clear The Air...

 My LIanelli boys with their first sold out London show

OK it was only The Black Heart but it's still a statement.

This time next year,Wembley.Ha,seriously tho' this

NWOCR movement has produced some great bands

over the past couple of years.

And add these Welsh boys to the list.

Two albums of quality Hard Rock and 

touring all over the country will lead to bigger things

without a doubt. DIOLCH YN FAWR LAWN.

Give It All,Give It...

They never let you down live.

It's AC/DC on the Black Ice Tour from,

hard to believe 2008.

So what you get are a couple of tunes from the new album.

Then it's classic tracks galore.

Fine sounding show.

Stand Up And Rock And Roll...

 

He's back and he's brought with him a cool double bill.

UFO and Saxon defying the years and cranking

out the riffs like it's 1979.

On Tour together in the USA 2017.

Two excellent sounding shows and performances

at BB King's in NYC.

What a great night and tour this must have been.

Saxon - Mediafire

UFO - Mediafire

All Day Long I Think Of Things...

 Some of that early 80's Black Metal from

Angel Witch.

Playing that well known English holiday 

hotspot,Blackpool.

Nice sound on this one and good to go

back to when there were a thousand bands

trying to make it.

It's all good clean fun.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/568htwid61ck/AW81.zip

And It Washed Me So Far Away...

 Grungers, Alice In Chains captured during 

their 1993 UK Tour.

From Rock City,Nottingham,March 3rd. 

Very good audience recording.

Great vocals from the late Layne Staley.

If you're in the mood for the more serious

side of Rock music.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/2lc9gols2nf4/AIC93.zip

The Reason I'm Teasing...

 Another band that are constantly touring,playing

every shithole up and down the country.

This venue has a long history but jeez it's small!

I was up the back but I could have easily picked

up a guitar and joined in.

BUT!! they played it like an arena show

with a full set and amazing backline and for that 

I give them praise.With some great songs

very 80's Rock.

I tried to have a chat with them afterwards

but they're Geordies and I couldn't understand a word...HaHa.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/6n7ixv2jf5ia/Twister.zip

Well that's me up to date with posting all Eddie's recent recordings.

Apart from the new load he's just sent!

So expect some more new bands being uploaded.

Plus a couple we all know.

The Rock never stops!

It Floats Me Up To The Ceiling...

Our resident Gig Goer is back with more recordings.

If there's a guitar plugged in he'll be there!

Cheers Ed.

Another New Wave of Classic Rock Band who are

going places.They already have two albums out with a 

third on the way.As with most of these young bands 

it's good to see them on the way up in smaller venues

like this.I enjoyed this one...keep an eye out for this lot.

No One Knows The Nameless...

 Here's another boot from the Live USA series.

One for the Thrashers out there.

I've never been a big Thrash Metal fan

I just don't get most of it.

So my knowledge of Sepultura is they're from Brazil!

http://www.filefactory.com/file/60no7wqspqau/LiveUsa.zip

I Saw A Falling Star Burn Up...

 Another show from Billy Rankin's stash.

Interestingly it's an acoustic show.

A cool twist on the Naz songs we know so well.

Expect No Mercy...

This Is Who We Are...

 Eddie's just strolled into view again.

What's he saying about The Damn Truth?

Over the years Canada has produced some of my 

favourite bands and here's another.

I knew nothing about them until I seen them 

support King King.WOW!...top quality Hard Rock

with a touch of Blues and in Lee-La Baum

they have the perfect front woman.

Parts of their latest album were produced by BOB ROCK

so you know they are destined for a big future.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/7cwi9jvpbs7s/TDT22.zip

It's Time We All Reach Out...

 Here's Ed again and this time he's got The Blues!

And just to show that the ladies can do The Blues

as well.She hits all the right grooves with 

traditional Blues and modern guitar histrionics.

Amazing to watch her up close especially when 

she let loose on a couple of the longer songs...

super fast...a big future ahead.

https://www.filefactory.com/file/28skptcwmjvy/CMc2022.zip

Hard working British Blues guitarist who I 

have seen a couple of times.

Although considered one of the new breed

he has been around for about 20 years.But like 

all Blues players he is forever touring and 

playing everywhere.

Reminded me of a young Eric Clapton if

that is possible.

Singing On The Shoulders Of An Angel...

 I was just looking at my watch and it would appear to

be time for some Symphonic Metal.

So if you like Metal,Classical,Rock and

Celtic folk music all mashed into something epic.

You might like this one.

Nightwish,probably the most well known in the genre.

They've had three females singers.

The current one (since 2013) Floor Jansen is in my opinion

the best female singer of any genre around today.

Here's a very good audience recording from

Bloodstock 2018.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/c20x7tzcqlu/Nightwish2018.zip

Danger,Straight Ahead...

 Bubblegum Glamsters Poison for you.

Some demos from before the first album 

and maybe even before CC Deville?

Poison?Yeah I followed them for a while.

That first album is a Glamtastic Klassic!

I nearly wore the grooves out on that record.

Tape rip a little hissy but contains a couple

of cool songs that haven't made any albums.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/31wr3e1r1fvm/PoisonDemos.zip

My Baby With The Sunset Eyes...

Here's Ed again,He Goes Where The People Go.

I'd seen The Wildhearts a few months earlier

just going through the motions,obviously all pissed off

with each other again.

So it was great to catch up with Ginger in a more relaxed set up.

You can tell he was loving it away from the 'hearts.

And they played some great covers,great night.

 http://www.filefactory.com/file/7c4mwo2v6a5m/GW21.zip

Some People Break The Rules...

Over to you,Ed.

Quite a new band really been around since 2009,

they play fast and furious street punk.

Bordering on Oi Oi punk which was quite

big back in the day but thankfully these days

violence does not follow it around like it used to.

It's fascinating watching the mosh pit at some of these gigs.

They really go for it and how the hell they don't

get seriously hurt is beyond me...

Great night was had.

Well I Can Rock With Anyone...

 

Our Buddy UFOSteve is back once again pulling something

from the U section! 

One more of my old bootleg cd rips.

2 Radio Broadcasts.

The first one from France February 7th 1983.

With Billy Sheehan on bass guitar.

Complete with the mad French disc jockey between tracks.

And then the second part has the Radio edit Broadcast

of the St. Louis show on 24th April 1982.

UFO - Mediafire

How Easy It Would Be,To Show Me How You Feel...

 A band that did have some good success,it's Extreme.

With the album Pornograffitti & the big

lighter waving ballad,More Than Words.

I dug that album especially the other single

Get The Funk Out.

Of course Gary went on to have an ill fated 

time in Van Halen.

Nuno had a cool gig playing guitar for Rihanna.

Back to the good times it's a radio broadcast from '89.

https://www.filefactory.com/file/3ogruxd7scko/Ex89.zip

Reaching For The Stars,We Blind The Sky...

 After the Dehumanizer album with RJD.

Sabbath are back with Tony Martin on vocals

for the Cross Purposes album & tour.

A pretty good audience recording from L.A. 1994.

The last track Mob Rules/Computer God features

Dio from Boston 1992.

All in all pretty enjoyable.

Silver cd rip.

Like Ants In A Colony We Do Our Share...

Getting closer I can nearly make him out,yep

it's Eddie tellin' it like it is.

Just to show that it's not just the Brits that do Punk well,

I've always like this lot

with their short fast Yank Punk.

I stood at the back and watched the crowd

lap it up.Although when he mentioned the Jubilee

it didn't go down too well.

Not many Royalists in here tonight...great gig!!

https://www.filefactory.com/file/5j1f5vdl9wsi/BR22.zip

 

But I'd Rather Be Back In Soho...

It's a support & headliner set.

Who's that coming over the hill?

It's Eddie coming to tell us all about this one.

Here he is Mr. Charlie Harper and the UK Subs.

A lot of people have said he is Mr. Punk.

Starting it all way back in 1976 and still going after all these years.

The bands love him the fans love him,total legend,

and at 125 years old still looking good.

https://www.filefactory.com/file/ws34hb34iqg/UKSubs22.zip

 

Hey You,What Can I Do?...

 Rootsy Rock 'n' Roll from the Quireboys

playing the Reading Festival back in 1987.

Good honest Bluesy Rock featuring 

those classic Spike vocals.
