    Traffic Records – Atascadero (Shop Review)

    Atascadero If you’re looking for a patch of deep red in the ocean of blue that is California, the town of Atascadero is your place. Texas without the twang.

    David Lewis – “Among Friends” (Album Review)

    Reviewed by Dale Nickey: David Lewis – Among Friends Wow Records – Release Date 6/25/20 Nice to listen to music without context sometimes. My first scan of this music suggested a very young, precocious artist. The second coming of Aztec Camera’s Roddy Frame perhaps. Lyrics ahead of the artist’s years; a gentle, youthful voice offering…

    Top 10 Greatest Rock Covers #4 (The Clash “I Fought The Law”)

    The Clash – “I Fought The Law“ “I Fought The Law” was originally a bracing but unthreatening rebel squawk by The Bobby Fuller Four (composed by Sonny Curtis). The Clash sunk their rotting teeth into it and made it belch flames. The guitars squalled, the drums thundered and Joe Strummer’s sandpaper n’ Drano rasp gave…
