The Guided By Voices album Alien Lanes was released 25 years ago today! The Guardian said “Pollard’s songs are gems that stay just this side of self-conscious eccentricity.” I couldn’t have put it better…28 short tracks, no time to get bored. |

The final album by The Beatles, Let It Be, was released in 1970, nearly a month after the band’s break-up. Initial reviews were not favourable, given the previous body of work. Includes Across the Universe, Let It Be and Get Back. I’m a fan, are you? |

The 1970 debut eponymous Black Sabbath album is widely considered the first commercial heavy metal album. Upon release critics gave scathing reviews, but retrospectively acclaim the work of Osbourne, Iommi, Butler and Ward. Great riffs! |

The gravelly voice, strumming telecaster and occasional saxophone can only mean one thing…Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Born in the U.S.A. his 7th studio album, released June 1984, commercialised stories of American small town folk. The title track, I’m Goin’ Down, the haunting I’m On Fire and the dazzling synth laced Dancing in the Dark are the stand-out tracks. |
