This year the world of music has lost many legends. We have lost one of the greatest Blues guitarists who ever existed (RIP Johnny Winter), the last original member of the quintessential punk rock band (Tommy Ramone) and arguably the last great soul men (Bobby Womack). Just last week we lost Glam Rocker Alvin Stardust, and today we lost perhaps one of the most important figures in rock music's history; Jack Bruce. To many, that name may mean nothing, but to me he means a lot, and to plenty of you he did as well. Without Jack it is questionable if the bass would play as prominent a role as it did in the Rock industry. Yes John Entwistle in "My generation" came before, Jack became a household name but Jack had been playing in London Blues-based bands since the early 60s, he played with the Graham Bond Organisation, Blues Incorporated and with John Mayall. He helped define the Blues base of the British invasion. Without him, the british invasion may have lacked the fearful...

So i Know i promised a lovely pro-modern music blog but I've decided to mix it up with best of lists. Please feel free to shower me with praise in the comment section or if you want to be picky you can even insult my choice or offer your own top 5. Please go on...do it. I wont even scream if you add a terrible record.... actually i might. 5 - The Man Who Sold The World- David Bowie - Released 1970 A safe choice for a glam rock list i know, but i  have a rather soft unsaid love for this album, on my Itunes Libary it has only 4 stars but the missing one star is only around because of "running guns blues" which i just really don't like.  This is also considered the first Glam rock album  4- Mott - Mott The Hoople - Released 1973 The best Mott the Hoople album despite the fact that it doesn't include "all the Young Dudes", On my Itunes album; again this holds only 4 stars and im not certain why, but considering i have just 68 5 s...

Many Moons have past since music last happily strode its way into schools and tore the pupils away from their textbooks. Many Moons have gone since the charts were last full of good old fashioned Rock And Roll. But Rock hasn't stopped its just been taking a breather, i mean the amount of drugs it did, come on now be fair, it deserves a breather. So how will this revival of music happen, well thats obvious in the underground, and im not taling about the teenage mutant ninja turtles. Im talking about the Underground, which was once laden in Velvet, the madchester underground. It's been here since Swing music and you can rest assured it will never leave us. This new generation of musicians, well lets just say I'm going to be championing them for the next while over this blog, in an attempt to make sure Bieber and his directions can surrender and waltz away (hopefully not to the last waltz). So follow me for a blog that reminises about the past and looks forward to the fu...
