Slade’s concerts always turned into fun loving riots and in this box set are five prime examples of ‘There’s A Riot Goin’ On.’ These recordings are a wonderful way to relive this golden era.

The Theory Of Molecular Inheritance is a concept album, as is the wont of progressive rock, so best played from start to finish, all 62 minutes of it. As the first crescendo of Time Capsule comes over the speakers you are hooked anyway. The music is huge, way beyond being put into any category, except maybe just rock.

Steve has put together a magnificent band with members who know each other well. If you enjoy the music on these CDs, you should head straight out and get the DVD too, so you can have complete fulfilment of the senses. The only better way is to actually go to a concert.

Here we go with another Hawkwind double live CD documenting the Hawkwind tour of 2021 chronicling the Insomnia album outings. All in all a fine addition to the Hawkwind canon.

A great album, combining the talents of Nik Turner and Steve Hillman, Musical Spacenauts of the first order. The songwriting is extraordinary and the music is delivered bang on with a real unearthly groove. This calls for getting up and giving it your best space boogie.

Despite all the soothsayers of doom, the Dead Daisies keep on producing the goods both from the studio and live on stage. In what seemed highly unlikely two years ago, the Dead Daisies may have a classic album to their name. Only time will tell.

This little beauty “Animals” was originally released in 1977—a dark, brooding album with words from Roger Waters condemning the occupants of the planet for their lack of ability to think for themselves. Now we have a stunning new version freshly remixed by the band.

The whole album is a thing of great beauty, sumptuous in both melody and rhythm. It’s the album we all need coming, as it does in yet another tumultuous time in the history of human beings.
