The Black Crowes – Lions
Lions are kings of the jungle; how very apt. A great Rock ‘n’ Roll record.
Steppenwolf – Live
Definitely one of the finest of many good live albums from the early seventies, catching the live beast that was Steppenwolf at the peak of their undoubted powers.
Hawkwind – Electric Tepee
Back in 1992, Hawkwind released ‘Electric Tepee,’ a sensational album of space rock combining intergalactic orbital rockers with huge chunks of Hawk dreamscapes that whisk you off on a sonic journey, clocking in at one hour and fifteen minutes.
The Clash – London Calling
Busting at the seams with creative energy, The Clash’s stunning 1979 double album, “London Calling,” digitally remastered from the original production tapes, puts both vinyl albums on one CD.
Harvey Bainbridge – Interstellar Chaos
‘Interstellar Chaos’ is a series of trips to outer space through the mind of Harvey Bainbridge. All the music is played by the man himself. Each one whisking you away to different parts of the stratosphere.
Deep Purple- Infinite, Gold Edition
“Deep Purple’s Infinite, Gold Edition,” released in 2017, is the band’s 20th studio album and fourth since new boy Don Airey joined on keyboards in 2002.
Groundhogs – Split
Split would definitely fall into the Blues/Rock category, but there are certainly tinges of Progressive Rock in this power trio’s fiery instrumental breaks. Of course, by now the focal point of the group was Tony McPhee, singing in his distinctive fashion and ripping the blues out of his guitar with great long solos in the live arena.
Led Zeppelin – How The West Was Won
This is the rock album release of 2003 by a country mile. This collection of songs stands head and shoulders above anything else during that twelve months.
Hawkwind – Alien 4
As ever, original space rockers Hawkwind go where nobody has gone before, not because of any particular enterprise, but perhaps because they don’t care if everybody else just thinks they are off their collective rockers.
Yes – Fragile
There are a lot of positives to this record, Yes’s fourth album, “Fragile” (1971). After all, it went double Platinum on the American Billboard and included Yes’s greatest-ever track ‘Roundabout.’ Also in truncated version, it was released as a single and made the top twenty.
