Ian Anderson – Plays The Orchestral Jethro Tull

This is the first time that this album has been released on vinyl, originally released in 2005 on CD and DVD as a live document of the concert played at Mannheim’s Rosengarten during 2004. This two LP set in black…

Montrose – I Got The Fire: Complete Recordings 1973-1976

Montrose were formed in 1973 when hot shot American session guitarist Ronnie Montrose quit the Edgar Winter Group and teamed up with Sam Hagar (as he was then known) and drummer Denny Carmassi, who had been playing together in cover…

Van der Graaf Generator – Interference Patterns: The Recordings 2005-2016

When old, disbanded groups reform many decades after their heyday, it’s generally to sell a few concert tickets to cash in on nostalgia, and perhaps even record a studio album that’ll inevitably be terrible, not worthy of being considered alongside…

Babe Ruth – Darker Than Blue: The Harvest Years 1972-1975

Babe Ruth began life in 1972 as Shacklock, named after Alan Shacklock, the creative driving force behind the band. He was a gifted guitarist, composer and arranger who trained at the Royal Academy no less, and a young talent which…

Marillion – Holidays In Eden [Deluxe Edition]

Parlophone/Warner have now almost completed their run of deluxe set reissues from Marillion’s original eight-album run with EMI; Holidays In Eden is the seventh and Season’s End will complete the series when it is released in 2023. Each of these…

Dio – Holy Diver: Remixed Super Deluxe Edition

Now then… the observant amongst you might notice that it would be something of a stretch to regard Dio’s 1983 debut album Holy Diver as a thing of progression. Fair enough, but I think I would be right in saying…

Renaissance – Scheherazade and Other Stories [Remastered & Expanded 3-disc Box Set]

Reviewing this album honestly feels like cheating. Most albums we humble scribblers have to review require us to take a leap into the unknown to something between the latest sensation and an abysmal waste of time. Scheherazade and Other Stories,…

Jonesy – Waltz For Yesterday: The Recordings 1972-1974

My first brush with Jonesy was in 2011 when I reviewed the bizarre Dark Matter (Inner Space), apparently a mish-mash of old recordings and new sound effects. Looking back, I cannot fathom why I gave it 7 out of 10,…

Bill Bruford – Making A Song And Dance: A Complete Career Collection

William Scott Bruford, primarily known as the “go to” prog drummer, as stints in Yes, King Crimson (three times), Genesis, and UK attest, has had a career that is so much more than that. After all, the time he spent…

Hawkwind – Dreamworkers of Time: The BBC recordings, 1985-1995

Cherry Red Records now have a long history of releasing Hawkwind albums, having handled box sets of their late seventies releases and following those up with their eighties/nineties albums. Each release has been excellently packaged and remastered to create a…
