Poem: That Summer When ‘She Talks To Angels’ By The Black Crowes Meant Everything; Everything…

Thirteen years old, three strings on a three-quarter sized acoustic guitar and every hope in the world for so many things except for trying to make what was left of that instrument sing. (Didn’t stop me from trying though). Where the fuck has 30 years gone? I think if I scratch my head I can […]

RNZ Feature: The Music of 1990

For my first regular music feature on RNZ for 2020 I decided to look at the music of 1990 – or at least some of the music from the start of the year and the big hits. Guilty pleasures, pop, rock – some enduring hits and some best forgotten. It was fun to look at […]

The Levon Helm Band: The Midnight Ramble Sessions Vol. 3

The Levon Helm Band The Midnight Ramble Sessions Vol. 3 Vanguard Records/Universal Dear old Levon – that voice, magical drummer, surely one of the all-time greatest singing-drummers (even if that’s not a huge category, nor sought-after award). Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks, The Band, sitting in with Ringo’s All-Starr band, recording with Neil Young, Clapton […]

Buffalo Killers: Ohio Grass

Buffalo Killers Ohio Grass Alive Records/Southbound Buffalo Killers have the beard-thing going on, the kind of thing that would have them written up one month in Uncut, dismissed the next. But already Buffalo Killers have pumped out quality records – one a year for the last small handful of years and this is a feature-length […]
