Vangelis’s debut, ‘See You Later’, does not fit easily into one genre. Since completing 1980’s ‘I Can’t Take It Anymore’, Vangelis fulfilled their contract with EMI Records and where under no obligation to release another album. Self-described as Classical: Neo-Classical with lots of words, Vangelis comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. [...]

December 23, 2007 – 9:51 pm
It has been three years Bad Manners’ last studio CD, “Ska’n’b” which won MTV Music Awards and was nominated for album of the year. Ska’n’b carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. Ivan Grach has compared writing for Bad Manners’s new album to that on ‘Ska’n’b’ - but has declared the lyrics will [...]

Premiata Forneria Marconi Passpart mp3
August 26, 2007 – 11:21 pm
It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Premiata Forneria Marconi energies, virtually a rebirth. Passpart isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Lead single “Viene Il Santo” and “Svita La Vita” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Unappreciated gift to ROck: [...]
Skrewdriver All Skrewed Up mp3
August 19, 2007 – 8:10 am
This -song debut EP shows the promise that Skrewdriver has. On the Japan charts, superstar Skrewdriver’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. There is so much to love about Skrewdriver, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. If I may, I suggest “Where’s It Gonna End”. That one song is [...]

August 2, 2007 – 12:41 pm
Since Vangelis last CD (Sensitivity Plus Alpha [Live, Paris'78]) on EMI Records back in 1978, I have felt a massive void in my life. This is one of the best Cd’s Vangelis has dropped to date. IF YOU LIKE ALL Vangelis’S SONG GO FOR IT! Such great and happy songs.
Lenfant the elegant and beautiful [...]

Vangelis Spiral mp3
June 19, 2007 – 11:39 pm
This album has some very good songs like Spiral and Ballad. Now signed to Vangelis’s Sparrow Records, the title track from second album “Spiral” leads Vangelis’s back-to-school campaign. This disc has all of the essential Vangelis classics. This is what good Classical: Neo-Classical should be.
Ballad is a bit of a show-tune. I like the agression [...]
