Warwick Rockbass Corvette Bass guitar
I bought this as a back up bass so i had a spare bass lying at work for after work rehearsals.The Rockbass is Warwicks entry level range so although it is good it isn’t quite in the same league as a Warwick!
This cost £270 from an online music shop …
War, 1983 Album by U2
Trust me, this album is very special. I remember how I listened to this album for the first time, and how I was impressed by what I heard. I liked the debut album by U2, called Boy. I did not like the second album, October, at all. But then …
India.Arie Testimony: Vol.2 Love & Politics
As a fan of India.Arie I was excited to hear what she had come up with in her latest cd. I am glad to say that I was not disappointed. The first listen a couple of songs stood out:
Track#9-Yellow, Track#10-Better Way and Track#12-Long Goodbye.
In her song Yellow, …
Avril Lavigne Goodbye Lullaby music album
This is Avril Lavigne’s senior effort album and I think it shows. It’s got a more mature sound with less poppy music —“ OK maybe not so true about the pop part. But it brings me back to her earlier solid efforts with quality music. Also, …
Savage Garden
I love all of Savage Garden Songs; I bought their CDs, bought their extra albums and enjoyed every hit that made it to the charts. Their first hit was “To the moon and back”, with a different twist to the song’s melody and is kind of unique to be …
Troye Sivan - YOUTH (Song)
Troye Sivan is really showing huge promise for an explosive end of 2015. His debut album “Blue Neighbourhood” will be released on December 4, competing (unfortunately) with the big band Coldplay and in the shadow of Adele’s triumphant return. Either way, I still believe Troye will certainly deliver, may …
Bon Iver - Hinnom, TX (Song)
Hinnom, TX is a snog by Bon Iver which appears on their self-titled second album. The track opens up with a sound which I can only describe as being very airy and light. Once a listener hears the intro, it honestly sounds as if they’re listening to a song …
“U Saved Me” (2004): R. Kelly
R. Kelly
“U Saved Me”
Happy People/U Saved Me
Jive Records
R. Kelly delivers us the second and final single and music video from his double solo album “Happy People/U Saved Me” titled “U Saved Me”. I’m surprised R. Kelly cut this album’s music video lifespan short with only two of them (”Happy …
Take That - X-Factor 2010 - Final Performance
It’s odd that you would look at the performance of potentially the biggest boy band in the world and notice how much they had grown in a matter of weeks, but this is what I noticed with Take That. Only weeks before they had performed together with Robbie Williams …
Metallica - Ride The Lightning (Song)
Ride The Lightning, the title track of Metallica’s second release, is a song where I believe you can hear some aspects of Kill —˜Em All blended with some new aspects from Ride The Lightning. The reason I say this is because the music to …
Nightwish - The Poet and The Pendulum
Without a doubt Tuomas Holopainen adores the same dark playfulness of a Danny Elfman score as I do. Many people debate the creditability of Nightwish’s new album “Dark Passion Play” and the band’s new singer Anette Olzon. I believe if people …
Your Love Never Fails by Chris Quilala
Your Love Never Fails started with the lead guitarist Chris Quilala as he is the also lead vocalist of this beautiful song. “Nothing can separate, even if I ran away, your love never fails”. It was so smooth and mellow when he sang it.
The song talks about how great …
Insane Clown Posse
Insane Clown Posse are on of my current favorite bands, and one of the only bands I like that are �new age� in their sound, that being Horrorcore, a sub-genre of Hip-Hop. They have memorable songs left, right and center and are simply indescribable, they jump genre with most …
Teddy Bear by Red Sovine
The song Teddy Bear is one of the many that Red Sovine sings that I like. It is considered to be a truck driving song but that makes no difference to me. I’m not a truck driver but I sure like the beat of the song. It makes me …
Smash Mouth (band)

Green Day - I Was There (Song)

Doctor Who Series 1 Sondtrack (2005)

Goapele (singer)
I really tried to like this singer. She’s absolutely beautiful. A café au lait woman with and interesting eclectic style. She’s been around for awhile on the Neo-Soul scene, and I have yet to connect with her music. Her voice is buttery …

Black&Blue by Backstreet Boys
This is the fourth album by the international successful pop group the Backstreet Boys. This is also their last album before the group broke up (before the current re-union). I have really waited for that album, thinking about how wonderful it was going to be. I must mention that …
The Gift by Garth Brooks
The Gift by Garth Brooks is kind of an odd song for him in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong it’s a very beautiful song but it has a certain Spanish flavor and tone to the song. That is something I would not have expected to hear in …
Even If I Wanted To (Single) - Jason Aldean
I have recently became a huge Jason Aldean fan. Not only because he is liked by many, but because his songs are actually written about really deep topics that have an amazing meaning. Anyone can find a song of his to relate to basically. This song, Even If I …
Sepultura The Best Of Sepultura
This collection was released in 2006, the band hasn’t been with Roadrunner Records for a long time, and wasn’t at the time of the release of this collection, it’s a pointless cash in, the record label shamelessly gathered up tracks by Spineshank, Sepultura, Type O Negative, Suffocation and Deicide …
The Doors - The Changeling (Song)
The Changeling is a song by The Doors which appears on their album L.A. Woman. The track starts off with a nice organ part which has this very catchy rhythm and Morrison just sort of grunting some noises which at least adds some character to the track. A lead …

Job for a Cowboy

Fender AT-3 Guitar Tuner

The Alternative to Love by Brendan Benson
I love the title of this album, The Alternative to Love by Brendan Benson pretty much. The album has a kind of oldies-sound or rather indie-sounding and very infectious. I love tracks like Alternative to Love, Feel Like Myself, Between Us and many more. Imagine an Oasis …
M People (music group)
One of my guilty pleasures is listening to dance music rave, euro-dance and euro-pop from the nineteen nineties. I guess it’s a little strange judging from my personality and my other likes and dislikes, but I believe it stems from me hearing it so much, and liking the dance …

Our Bright Future

Darius Rucker
This guy is awesome. If you don’t remember, he’s the guy from Hootie and the Blowfish. He came out with a country album and it’s amazing, simply amazing. His voice is so on the money; it’s unique and beautiful and rich. I really and truly do not like country …
