Gregg Allman Lonely Day In L.A. (Complete KMET-FM Broadcast From 6th November 1974) Smokin’ Badger There’s really no denying that Gregg Allman was the great voice of southern rock – he had a white boy blues thing that was never cloying, didn’t feel like anything more than it was: A natural talent singing his soul […]Archive

“Weird Al” Yankovic: The Idiots Are Winning (Live 1984)
“Weird Al” Yankovic The Idiots Are Winning (Live 1984) Shockwaves To my knowledge there’s never been an official standalone live-concert-album release from “Weird Al”.

Joe Satriani: Altered States (Live 1988)
Joe Satriani Altered States (Live 1988) Shockwaves In 1988 – and for me it was through until about 1994 – Joe Satriani was the man. His Lazarus days. A king shredder that invested some melody and mood into the trick-bag. Rock instrumentals for fairweather-bogans, guitar music that wasn’t just for guitar-nerds…okay, it mostly was, but […]Archive
