Dave McMurray: Grateful Deadication 2

by Geno Thackara
May 12, 2023

Yet another Grateful Dead tribute will probably invite the same reactions from devotees and anyone else--either “oh, these songs again? “ or “Hmm, these songs again?" For anyone willing to take a look, it will (of course) come down to the way the material is presented and retooled, which in Dave McMurray's case means the sound ...

by Doug Collette
February 26, 2023

Notwithstanding the almost clockwork regularity of archival releases (with and without bonus material), upon quick reflection, the Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead would not appear to have much in common.

Diamond Dust: The Eccentric Genius of Jeff Beck

by Doug Collette
January 14, 2023

The man played like he had a love/hate relationship with his guitar.
