Yussef Dayes Trio: Welcome To The Hills

Yussef Dayes Trio Welcome To The Hills Cashmere Thoughts Take a look at that cover – the drum-kit on fire! – it’s either evocation of playing with such heat as to near fear for your life or a symbol of burning it all to the ground, either way it’s about leaving it all on the […]

Bettye LaVette: Things Have Changed

Bettye LaVette Things Have Changed Verve Bettye LaVette’s had one hell of a comeback – or an arrival; barely anyone knew about her before, and if they did it was more about her struggles than her music – she’s also got one hell of a colourful backstory and though there was some great music early […]
