Big Beat ‘59 (Rifle Bird Records). Review by Carl F Gauze.
Dan Sartain doesn’t really care if you know his name, or any of the songs he plays. He just came to remind you that rock ‘n’ roll can still be unsettling… and Matthew Moyer LOVES it.

The Kudzu Ranch. Review by Carl F Gauze.
The Last Concert: December 4, 1988 (Eagle Rock entertainment). Review by Carl F Gauze.
“How High The Moon,” indeed. Imelda May’s tribute to Les Paul & Mary Ford - with Jeff Beck along for the ride - not only caused quite a sensation at the Grammys, it opened America’s eyes and ears to an Irish singing sensation on the rise. Steve Stav recently talked to Ms. May about her big night, guitar god Beck, and her upcoming U.S. tour.

This week, Christopher Long goes “gaga” over discovering an ’80s treasure: an OG vinyl copy of Spring Session M, the timeless 1982 classic from Missing Persons — for just six bucks!
Both bold experiment and colossal failure in the 1960s, Esperanto language art house horror film Incubus returns with pre-_Star Trek_ William Shatner to claim a perhaps more serious audience.
You Can’t Tell Me I’m Not What I Used To Be (North & Left Records). Review by Randy Radic.
