Jimi Hendrix: Valleys of Neptune

Read "Valleys of Neptune" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: The Live Anthology

Read "Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: The Live Anthology" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Tom Petty obviously reveres his band The Heartbreakers with the feeling being mutual, as the group not only welcomes the leader back from his solo projects with Jeff Lynne and Rick Rubin, but also deigns to skillfully reinterpret the most popular material from those projects. Improvisation takes on many forms in the hands of musicians this ...
