The album features powerful duets highlighting his unique style and energy. Despite his age, Lewis proves he still reigns as the King of Rock'n'Roll.

This album is a testament to his legacy and vitality. Listen to Jerry Lee Lewis’ Last Man Standing and experience the timeless spirit of rock'n'roll!

 The old Lou 'makes do' as he can with simple and catchy compositions.

 Here there’s a piece, 'Video Violence,' which is a violent throw against the television garbage that was already reigning at that time.

Lou Reed's 1986 album Mistrial continues his creative stagnation with simple but catchy compositions. The absence of guitarist Robert Quine is noticeable. While some tracks embrace an 80s pop sound awkwardly, others offer typical gritty Lou Reed rock and romantic ballads. Tracks like 'Video Violence' hint at his upcoming social critiques. Overall, the album shows potential but falls short of a classic. Discover Lou Reed’s 80s sound evolution and his social critique—listen to Mistrial now!

 Lou Reed’s intelligence in this 'New Sensations' was in composing songs with good melodic lines.

 It can be said that these four tracks represent the top of the album, the other tracks are definitely minor pieces in Lou’s now vast repertoire.

New Sensations finds Lou Reed navigating the mid-80s rock scene with well-crafted songs and strong guitar work, particularly from Robert Quine. Though it lacks a defining hit, several tracks stand out, showcasing Reed's evolving sound. The album serves as a solid predecessor to his later masterpiece, New York. Listen to Lou Reed’s New Sensations and explore the melodic roots of his later masterpieces.

 Artistically, however, the record is a disaster.

 The thought of Iggy Pop trying to transform himself into a tender crooner almost suitable for a suit and tie gives me chills.

The review criticizes Iggy Pop's 1986 album Blah-Blah-Blah as an artistic failure despite its commercial success. David Bowie's strong influence led Iggy to a forced and uncharacteristic easy-listening style. The only standout track is the cover 'Real Wild Child.' Overall, the album is seen as a missed opportunity overshadowing Iggy's true fiery personality. Discover why Iggy Pop's Blah-Blah-Blah is a controversial chapter—listen and decide for yourself!

 It all starts with a remarkable guitar riff on a solid rock-blues, "Golden Ball And Chain", an excellent track with a catchy but absolutely not trivial chorus.

 It’s an explosion of powerful rock’n’roll and country mixed with a kind of rock-punk.

Jason and the Scorchers' 1986 album Still Standing delivers a potent mix of rock, country, and punk influences, featuring remarkable guitar work and strong original songs. While the band never gained widespread European fame, their impact and energetic style remain noteworthy. The album balances high-energy tracks and melodic ballads, with a memorable Rolling Stones cover adding unique flavor. This third album complements their earlier works and is a must-listen for fans of guitar-driven 80s music. Discover the fiery rock and country blend of Jason and the Scorchers’ Still Standing—listen now and feel the adrenaline!

 "The B-side, 'La ragazza bruttina,' is pure garage rock with a rough yet melodic chorus."

 "Even if you’re a bit plain, even so, I love you, I love you, I love you."

This review reflects on the rare 1967 single 'Oggi sono tanto triste/La ragazza bruttina' by I Tipi. While the A-side is a typical cover, the B-side offers a raw garage rock style with meaningful lyrics about acceptance. The reviewer shares nostalgic memories and highlights the song's underground punk appeal. This little-known single is praised for its unique sound and emotional depth. Listen to I Tipi's rare 1967 garage rock single and explore Italy's underground music scene from the 60s!

 "Dirty Work is probably the most underrated Stones album."

 "Keith Richards finally decided to take the musical reins of the album, leaving very little space for Mick Jagger’s disco and dancehall whims."

Dirty Work is considered one of the most underrated Rolling Stones albums, released during a crisis period between Jagger and Richards. Keith Richards assumes control with a strong rock-blues influence, limiting Jagger's disco and dancehall input. The album offers impressive performances, especially on tracks like "One Hit (To The Body)" and "Dirty Work." Dedicated to late bandmate Ian Stewart, the album foreshadows Richards' solo direction and remains a compelling part of the Stones' catalog. Explore The Rolling Stones' Dirty Work and rediscover a powerful rock-blues gem from a turbulent era.

 A great concert, partly penalized by imperfect acoustics which also affected the sound quality of the record.

 An absolutely sincere endeavor. If someone tried to exploit it for shady dealings, it was certainly not Harrison’s fault.

The Concert For Bangla Desh, organized by George Harrison in 1971, showcased a blend of Indian classical and Western rock music to raise famine relief funds. Despite some acoustic flaws and personal struggles among performers, the concert was a sincere and historic event. Highlights include Ravi Shankar's Indian music set and notable appearances by Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, and Ringo Starr. The event remains a powerful symbol of musical charity and collaboration. Discover the historic Concert For Bangla Desh – listen to iconic performances and feel the spirit of music-driven charity.

 Brother K's Degeneration Beat is already one of my favorite albums of 2006.

 A surgical operation where everyone contributes something of their own, merging into a fantastic blend of jazz, blues, soul, and rock.

Brother K's Degeneration Beat is a standout Italian album blending jazz, blues, soul, and rock with vocal experimentation inspired by Jack Kerouac. Featuring talented musicians like Boris Savoldelli and Andrej Kutov, the album delivers high artistic quality and innovative compositions. Tracks such as "Disarmonia" and "Sotterranea 1" showcase the band's mastery. The album is highly recommended for listeners interested in unconventional Italian music and the Beat Generation sound. Listen to Brother K's Degeneration Beat and discover a unique Italian tribute to the Beat Generation.

 Blue Moon Swamp is a splendid little record that revisits in its own way the vast sea of American musical tradition.

 If this track had been on an early ’80s Springsteen album, it would be a world-acclaimed anthem.

John Fogerty made a remarkable comeback in 1997 with Blue Moon Swamp, blending swamp rock, country, and gospel influences into a vibrant album rooted in American tradition. Despite long legal and personal struggles, the album showcases his artistic vitality and a diverse tracklist destined to become classics. It remains a solid and enjoyable record praised for its high musical quality and heartfelt performances. Listen to Blue Moon Swamp and experience John Fogerty's powerful return to American roots rock.
