Refestramus ~ Intourist

This album came as a nice surprise to me. Starting their album off 2 strong progressive songs made this a nice start. Both “DMK” & “Asuncion” had beautiful keyboard parts that made me want to pick up my keyboard & … Continue reading

Blind Channel ~ Exit Emotions

This album gets both good and bad reviews from me. Let’s start with the bad…most of these songs all sound the same. The good news is “Keeping It Surreal”, “Die Another Day”, “Phobia” & “One Last Time…Again” give me hope … Continue reading

Ace Frehley ~ 10,000 Volts

For someone who is not a kiss fan, I’ve liked what I’ve heard from Ace Frehley. Ace proves that he can play good music, write some decent songs, even if I’m not sure that he wrote them & sing well. … Continue reading

The Kings ~ The Longest Story Ever Told

This band has some nice pumped up music. The Kings come from Canada. They could give a good fight against another great band from Canada, which would be the Guess Who. Each song has you bopping along with the band. … Continue reading

Revolution Saints ~ Against The Wind

This is one of those super bands that usually break up after a few albums. After hearing this album, I hope that they stay together for quite a while longer. Upon first listening, I kept hearing Journey, (after Steve Perry) … Continue reading

This young woman from Austrailia can surely sing. Pretty impressive vocals. There are 11 songs on this album & they are really good. They are mostly in the rock field, but, there are some ballads as well. This album is … Continue reading

Kanak ~ On The Outside EP

This New Jersey band has some nice punch to them. They are not your Bruce Springsteen or Bon Jovi, but they have a newer type of sound with that old melodic feeling of yesterday. The first song on the EP, … Continue reading

Champlin Williams Friestedt ~ Carrie EP

What do you get when you put the talents of Bill Champlin of Chicago, Joseph Williams of Toto, & Pete Friestedt, who is a very talented musician get together. You get CWF, a band that eerily sounds like a mixture … Continue reading

Alicia Blue ~ Inner Child Work Party EP

I’m not usually fond of most female singers. There is some exceptions to this rule, such as Linda Ronstadt, Ann Wilson of Heart, Lana Lane, who has a magnificent voice. Now, there is a new voice that I may be … Continue reading
