Elton John / Leon Russell: The Union
by C. Michael Bailey
Elton John and Leon Russell are not so unlikely musical colleagues. Russell is slightly the elder, at 68 to John's 63, and within the age difference of two brothers. Both emerged in the early '70s, that fertile period nurtured by Woodstock the year before, and the rise of album-oriented-rock FM radio after. Both are pianists and ...

by C. Michael Bailey
Classic rock music from the mid-1960s to the mid-'70s produced three great voices: Rod Stewart, Roger Daltrey, and Robert Plant. Of these, the most incendiary was Plant. Never in the voice of a white man was there ever so much raw sexual power than that voice that sang “Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You," “Whole Lotta Love," ...

Neil Young - Le Noise (2010)
By Nick Deriso Even after a damaging season of loss, Neil Young remains, as always, restless and relentless—imbuing the modernistic, reverb-soaked “Le Noise" with a kind of anti-melancholy. He hasn't stopped searching for light in the darkness and, even now, somehow never sounds quite the same from album to album. This time, Young partners with producer ...
