As a mere stripling of seventeen years old, Steve Ellis set the charts alight as lead vocalist with the Love Affair. Since then, Steve has been buffeted by the blasts of music fashion and personal mishaps that would've put a more delicate soul in a care home. This album is a copper-bottomed cracker, though, with Ellis in peerless vocal form - try Nu Clear Blues or Requiem For A Tyrant for starters. The guy has still got an immacualte set of blue-eyed soul vocal pipes, and I hope that the album does well enough for him to keep on keepin' on. They don't make 'em like this anymore, and what we've got left, we should treasure.

Music : Kate Bush - The Whole Story [1986]

Great album with all my favourite tracks. How disappointed I was though with the revamped new vocal for Wuthering Heights. It was overproduced too much backing and Kate's voice dare I say did sound rather tinny and harsh.

The rest of the tracks are super Cloudbusting is great and all my old favourites.

I must track down the original wuthering Heights as I have them all on vinyl but not CD.

The group that operate under the name Samurai is actually the same band (exept for one member) as the last incarnation of Web, who recoreded the exellent album "I Spider" (also released by Esoteric). It's more brass oriented, but the performance of the band and the songwriting skills of Dave Lawson are intact. Lawson later became a founding member of Greenslade, and the music on Samurai sole album shows some similarities to the earlier albums made by that group. So if you looking for a "new" and exiting experience in the progressive field, don't miss this one!

Music : Kate Bush: Live At The Hammersmith Odeon (Video plus CD) [1981]
Getting older does have some advantages! I was fortunate to see this set at three locations during the 1979 tour,including the Hammersmith Odeon gig. It was a great show in every way, it's just a shame that it does not appear to be available on DVD.

7.Kate Bush - The Single File [1983] starring: Kate Bush
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Music : Kate Bush - The Single File [1983]
Originally released in 1983,to coincide with the single file box set of all the 7" singles released up to that point,this video showcases all of kates promo films in chronological order from her debut hit,WUTHERING HEIGHTS,right up to her only flop single,THERE GOES A TENNER.

If you already own THE WHOLE STORY on video then this video is still worth a purchase if not for the nostalgia value, then for the chance to see a few rare Kate Bush promos (at least in the sense tat you won't see them on t.v). Among the rarer of the vids is a promo for SUSPENDED IN GAFFA which,despite looking like it was rushed,is the only video in which the single was never released by EMI in the U.K as a single. Also worth noting is the promo for THEM HEAVY PEOPLE ... Read More:

The words 'lost progressive classic' when applied to an album that has not darkened the music room's door in decades are guaranteed to instill foreboding. This original, beautifully played record almost merits the accolade. Released in 1970 to the thudding of jaws hitting table tops, 'I Spider' does owe something in its footings to the likes of Gentle Giant and, in its interplay of sqwawking sax and grand guignol organ, early Van der Graaf Generator. But where it transcends emulation is in the deft seque from prog to modern British jazz. Vibraphone player Lennie Wright and Tom Harris on sax and flute imbued Web with the sensibilities of Neil Ardley and the late and very lost Mike Taylor - jazz's Syd Barrett, echoed in keyboard player and writer Dave ...

I have loved her music since I saw her in 1980 supporting Jon Anderson

This beautiful young lady came on stage with just an acoustic guitar and
play for 30 minutes. She was awesome.

Always remember the song "First Night n New York"

Personal tracks are from touchpaper and voices records.

If you like female singers with a deep sexy voice, try this cd it is a great insight into a singer with a very varied career. Her first album was released in 1971.

One moan, it would have been nice to have a third cd featuring her collusion with
Jon and Vangelis
Steve Howe
Wishbone Ash
and her own short lived group Transporter "Kids on the run"

Also the song "24 ... Read More:

10.Deep Purple - Live At The California Jam [1974] starring: Deep Purple
October 21, 1991
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

>>More Details
Music : Deep Purple - Live At The California Jam [1974]
Deep Purple Mark 3 in superb surroundings.

There is little to fault with this footage ( Glen Hughes's blues warbling's aside ).

The musicianship is astounding. The highlight for me is watching Ian Paice from start to finish.

Drummer's, this is a must, don't ignore, if you are a fan and appreciate drumming with conviction then purchase this, it's unbeatable (no pun intended!)

Can't wait for a dvd version as I am on my third video copy!
