Dr Greg notes the passing of Prince and his legacy
Why we should mourn Prince
I’m not some crazy besotted fan, but he had an incredible body of work, and like any great artist he had creative ups and downs; I don’t have every album, and some albums had duff tunes on em, even the later stuff, like Diamonds and Pearls, or Come, which were from a period when his 80’s star had begun to wane but the actual songwriting and musicality had matured into just about the funkiest shit on the planet. He never had any more mega–hits after that period, and t... -

Cream of The Crate: Album # 182 - Chicago (Transit Authority): Chicago Transit Authority
"The mystique of this album are the hard rock experimental tracks, which are at times intriguing and at times superfluous."(Classic Rock Review Jan 2014)
"(The hits on this album)made the group a constant presence on AM radio and kept its albums in the gold and platinum range." (RollingStone)
"(CTA) were unique, talented and provided some damn fine music and this album reminds us of some of the best, and worst!"(This review)
This is album review number One Hundred and Eighty Two in the series of retro-reviews of both vinyl and CD albums from my collection.

Rhett May – musician with heart and soul.
The extraordinary Mr Rhett May.

Carnatic and Hindustani music and instruments such as the Sitar and Tabla were always providing melody and percussion against a daily backdrop of lifting and soaring voices of Ragas. Ragas especially played a vital part of ... -

Iraqi Civil War
As Iraq breaks down into civil war our Prime Minister is making noises that we may have to take part in an 'allied' resolve to interfere again.
What do you think? I think we should never have taken part first time round. Either the US and its allies are profoundly stupid in that they could not envisage the mayhem they would cause given the initial conditions, or profoundly clever, since last I heard of the $2 Trillion the US spent in Iraq, 90...-
