Album Review: The White Stripes – Greatest Hits
The White Stripes always seemed to be a band that stood apart. Yeah, they were part of the garage-rock revival movement of the early 2000s, but unlike the other act from that scene that critics hyped beyond all comprehension at the time, The Strokes, Jack and Meg White didn’t fall foul of the weight of …

Album Review: Blues Pills – Holy Moly!
Thirds the charm is a phrase you can throw at Blues Pills and it will certainly stick.

Classic Compilation: ZZ Top – Rancho Texicano: The Very Best of ZZ Top
Of the American stadium filling acts of the 70s, few have managed to continually extend their career like ZZ Top.

Classic Album: The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Electric Ladyland
For better or worse, my opinion of the work of Jimi Hendrix has always been smothered somewhat by the blanket opinion that he was the greatest guitar player in the history of the fretboard.
