RIDING THE WAVES
Interview by Ken Sharp A founding member of the Beach Boys, Alan Jardine has been part of the fabric of American popular music for almost four decades. Never hungering for the spotlight, he has always been a team player, more than happy with his supporting role in the band. A wonderfully expressive and dynamic singer—he is the voice of Help Me Rhonda, Susie Cincinnati, Come Go With Me, Lady …

JACKIE MCAULEY - Jackie McAuley
Bigger than the sum of folk/ rock/blues/psych/country… Every pop critic who’s ever reviewed this album seems to have complained that it’s difficult to pigeonhole – even to describe. Poor darlings: being made to think and react by the second-greatest singersongwriter to crop up in Them Mk I. Poor music fans: forced to take in the sweep of complementary …

JUST DUSTY - Just Dusty: The Real Dusty Springfield
The gospel behind the greasepaint The real Dusty Springfield was a “glorious fake”, famous for her beehive wigs, heavy makeup and mischief – and a million miles from her humble beginnings as plain, straightlaced Catholic Mary O’Neill. Strictly anti-apartheid, she was an early supporter of the Motown sound and campaigned to give black soul singers a platform in the UK, …

CHILDLINE ROCKZ - London Greenwich IndigO2 (1st June, 2009)
View: stage-left, mid-tier ‘Whispering’ Bob Harris introduced the instant-CDed gig, kicked off in acoustic duo fashion by The Pretty Things, before Sons Of Albion delivered three Chilis-meet- Reef numbers. Uriah Heep hit the stage with apt new cut, Overload, complemented by three classics, including the stomping Gypsy Queen and uptempo Easy Living. Thunder had the less than sell-out …
