Prince: Tokyo Dome 1990

Prince Tokyo Dome 1990 Timeline In 1990, Prince’s Nude Tour was an interesting culmination of the various live experiences he had offered to date; it wasn’t quite a pivot, but then it wasn’t really ever in celebration of either of his recently released studio albums. Yeah, you could hear a track or two from both […]

Steely Dan: NORTHEAST CORRIDOR: Steely Dan Live!

Steely Dan NORTHEAST CORRIDOR: Steely Dan Live! UMe It should come as no shock – really – that the band that, well, fired its entire band and then showed no loyalty to the session greats of the world, picking and choosing them on a track-by-track basis, simply carried on touring after co-leader Walter Becker died […]

The Rolling Stones: A Bigger Bang Live On Copacabana Beach

The Rolling Stones A Bigger Bang Live On Copacabana Beach Mercury Studios Another month, another live Rolling Stones album. It got a bit boring a while ago. And then very boring some time shortly after that. I say this as a card-carrying Stones fan for some 35 years of my life. But I called time […]

Leonard Cohen The Moon’s Too Bright: Los Angeles ’93 Syndicated Broadcast Second Line In 1993 Leonard Cohen embarked on his first tour since 1988 – he had the album The Future out and he had songs on the soundtrack to Natural Born Killers. In short: he was back on boogie street.

Queen + Adam Lambert: Live Around The World

Queen + Adam Lambert Live Around The World Hollywood Records It’s fair to say no one needs this live album by half of Queen and all of Adam Lambert. But there are probably a few psycho-fans that WANT it. So here it is. I enjoyed a Queen + Adam Lambert concert way more than I […]

Roger Waters: Us + Them

Roger Waters Us + Them Sony Legacy I didn’t think I ever needed to hear another Roger Waters solo album – and then, in 2017, he released Is This The Life We Really Want? And I got all gushy, and sentimental – and Roger sorta did too; though of course he was also spiky and […]

Poem: Lotus Poisitioning

Back in the day I’d buy a new cassette tape each week – mow lawns to save money to buy tapes to listen to while mowing more lawns. It was a good system, joined the World Record Club – had obscure album choices sent to me in that little town where I lived; things you’d […]

Gary Gulman: The Great Depresh

Gary Gulman The Great Depresh Comedy Dynamics, A Nacelle Company I’ve seen the recent comedy special by Gulman which includes documentary footage as part of it – and I loved it – but as with recent albums from specials by Maria Bamford, David Cross and Jim Gaffigan I think I prefer hearing it as a […]

The Vinyl Countdown # 403

Bob Dylan, Real Live (1984) So excited am I that Bob Dylan is coming back to play and I’m such a huge Bob Dylan kick right now (I wonder when I’m not, really…) I rushed out to buy this the other day. I used to have it on CD, but I hardly ever played it. […]
